My suggestion is to head over to Hofo and ask. Being you have the v8 from T-Mobile it runs the linux OS and no other Razr uses that at this time. Plus most of the software posted or linked here is for CDMA phones and not the GSM models like you have with the added warp of having the Linux OS.

Youd prolly have a snap getting into with moto4lin on a linux OS. Just an assumption though. Keep us updated on what it takes though.

yea it is pretty cool from the one I saw. However it run on the older data network so you don't get access to high speed data. That is why the v8 is the only Razr2 to have the Linux OS. They do not have it working with the 3g networks whihc is why all the other Razr2 still run Moto's Synergy OS.

just speculation, but id take linux OS over others on my phone any day. My guess is that it is very highly customizeable for a person who is familiar with linux operating systems. now its got me wondering if it has a bash terminal on it.

since where on the subject of the v8, does anyone know how to transfer photos from your phone to the PC (without sending multiple messages to your e-mail)?

apparently according to the OP, none of the software here works with that phone, but have you checked out the site mentioned by Pyde to try to get internal filesystem access to the phone?

One other thought though, does the v8 use a transflash card that you can use to store photos on? If so, just load those photos onto the transfalsh card, take it out, and then load the transflash card onto the computer. Similar to the FAQ i posted here: http://www.hacktherazr.com/faq/how-do-i-transfer-pictures-v3m-phone-pc

look at method number two at the bottom of that FAQ page to get the idea of what needs to be done.

edit: oops, you are the OP. HoFo = www.howardforums.com

Doesn't your model phone

Posted:

Doesn't your model phone have USB mode? Go into Menu>settings>connection> and look for USB. If it is there see if it is set to USB mode or modem. If it's modem switch it to USB and then cycle the power on the phone. After which time plug it into you comp and see if it shows up as a removable hard disk.

a drive does come up where i can only put in music, pics, video, etc, but it won't let me take things out of the phone, like pics i took with the camera, and i can't send high quality images over messages because it only alows a 200kb max

I can't say really in all

Posted:

I can't say really in all honesty seeing as I don't have a v8.

What folder come up inside the drive that gets listed? If it's like any of the other Moto phones that may shed some light.
