From what little I looked into it, the USB port is actually a multi-function device, and not just a standard USB interface (as is on most other Android devices). You'll need to install the drivers for it from samsung's website: http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/mobile/mobile-phones/at-t-phones/SGH-I897ZKAATT/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=support Linux is apparently a bit harder to get working (I haven't tried yet), but Windows works fine for me after installing those drivers. --Phill W. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
