Suggests on this or another software package to access the motorola razor cell phone is appreciated. suggestions? James
How was the device node chosen? It appears there is no device connected to /dev/bus/usb/002, but rather /dev/bus/usb/008.
Although the software reports a permissions issue, perhaps the problem is related to a bad choice of device node?
Hope that helps, Carlos
