the phone to a USB port on your computer.
2. Open the Notifications panel, and then touch
USB
Connection Mode
.
3. Touch the connection mode you want to connect to the PC
as. Choose from the following options: Windows Media
Sync
, Modem mode, or Mass storage mode.

When the device is connected as USB storage, you receive
a notification.

You device's microSD card is mounted as a removable drive
on your computer. You can now copy files to and from the
