As we all know that the k750/w800 is a great phone and now with the new potential to modification-- it has just become better. Just like a Nissan Skyline!!! lol.
Is there any way through FAR manager that we can store the drivers so that the phone does not need the CD to get its drivers. If this is possible, it will be amazing!!!

I get it... You want to be able to use the phone as a USB memorystick. So you just plug it in, and windows find it as a "normal" memorystick.

no, its not possible - the drivers are not for the phone, the drivers are for windows, and theres no way to install them in windows when they are in the phone.

keep the drivers on a small usb stick or something instead, then you wont need to carry the CD, or just let windows autoinstalle them from windows update if the computer are connected to the internet.

if you get a memory stick card reader (a nice small one) that is USB mass storage compliant, then you can keep the drivers on that and copy them to the PC when you need them.

yes but you are hardly going to install suse linux just to get it to work when you can install a simple driver instead? Or are you suggesting putting suse linux on the phone?

I think the point the guy is making is that it would be good to be able to plug the phone in any computer not just his own.
