Hello !
I have a big problem.
Time ago, i used My Phone Explorer on my win98 and i connected it always to my sony ericsson z520i.
Recently my z520i is crashed with white screen and i can't view the display.
Recently i formatted my pc and i installed My Phone Explorer 1.6.7 on my win98 and i want save my sms on my pc, but i can't to connect My Phone Explorer to z520i and it warn me that device not found and it warn me that i must restart my pc or my phone.
Why ?
Z520i is connected my pc with Bluetooth in the same way like i did time ago.
After the format, now do i must reinstall something else ?
I hope your help and you excuse me for my bad english
Bye

The phone must be turned on so that MPE is able connect to it. If your phone has a white-screen its not sure that you have turned it on.

How did you connect to your phone ? If you are using bluetooth then you also have to make a new pairing to your phone and this is not possible when your phone cannot be controled.

Yes !
The phone has the bluetooth active.
I have connected z520i bluetooth to my pc and i have did the pairing too.
I managed to do this through a help on another forum, there a friend has his z520i and he had simulated the bluetooth connection with pairing.
So he has told me which keys i must push.
Now i can connect my phone with the pc but i can't to connected it to My Phone Explorer.
I have bluetooth Toshiba and driver warn me that pc is connected with my z520i.

P.S. In a my old cd that i burned, i have found my old version My Phone Explorer (1.5. with a file "VB6.0-KB290887-X86.exe".
Maybe do i must put this in my pc ?

You have to activate the service "Serial connection" in your BT-Software (all this is already described in the FAQs)

Yes !
I did always this !
The strangeness is that yesterday i had tried to connect it to my pc and it had done a strange communication error and i canned not connect z520i to my pc !
Today i solved with Linux Ubuntu and i canned to save my sms on my pc.

However, the same thanks for the help !
