Ok, Ultimate Edition 2.6, and I found an application in Ubuntu Software Center, called phone manager. It *apparently* allows you to send texts through the phone while it's plugged into the comp.
The phone, Android G1, is plugged into the USB, but the app wont' recognize it...
Under the application preferences, It asks for the connection. I chose other port, and found some info under the disk utility once the phone was mounted on the desktop. (so now I can access files in the phone from the computer, but the app doesn't recognize th phone.)
In the disk utility. Under drives
Device: /dev/sdb
Connection: USB at 480.0 MB/s
Under volumes
device: /dev/sdb1
mount point: /media/KFAT1
Which of these goes into the connection, or am I way off base?
Just tips, no rush or emergency.
Thanks.
Andrew
