Whats the purpose of the USB cord on the REVERE?
I just bought the REVERE and was excited when I noticed the dual charge/USB cord. But when I tried connecting to my laptop I was informed of no drivers found. Upon further searching I read that I can't even transfer pics from phone to computer or visa verse. So really, whats the point of the USB?.
this is from another thread, and i believe is the best response i've seen:

BitPim is a program that will access the directories in your phone. You must have your phone's drivers on your computer for BitPim to work. The software on your phone may need upgraded. An LG software upgrade assistant can be found on this page also.
Click here to download the drivers, manuals, software upgrades for your mobile device:

Download BitPim to open folders in your phone:
http://www.bitpim.org
Open BitPim
Click "Filesystem"
Click folder in the second panel
Click "Synced"
Click "My Pictures"
Right click on desired photos
click save
it is a hassle, but the usb cord can serve a purpose. you just need the current version of the software on the phone, and the drivers for it must be installed on your pc. however, once you have the drivers installed and bitpim installed, it makes it VERY nice to be able to access the directories.

my ipod won't show up on my computer. I have another ipod touch, that works fine. What should I do? Do I need a different ipo usb cord for the nano?
iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Manage"
4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
+Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
7. Close "Computer Management"
8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
9. Reconnect your iPod.

There's a logo that pops up on my ipod touch screen with the logo Itunes and the USB cord but is unable to connecct with iTunes...what should i do?
Resolve communication issues
Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.
Common errors: 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, or 3000-3999. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software", or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build". -
hi there, I need help .. I have 2 gen ipod touch and I restore my ipod around 11:00 pm and now its 1:20 am and on my screen its the iTunes logo and the usb cord and when I plug my charger in my laptop .. iTunes comes up and this what it saids "iTunes has detected an ipod recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used with iTunes" so what do I do.. do I let my ipod died right out & then try it .. because I restore it ,... it was beening to slow... so please help me ?
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

hi...i'm still using the old iphone 3G...my phone is no longer charging...when i tried to charge it, what i see on the screen is the usb cord with the arrow pointing the itunes logo...can someone help me?
It sounds like your phone is in recovery mode, which means it needs to be restored through iTunes on your computer in order to get out of it.

My iphone keep freezin on a screen that has the itunes circle with the usb cord on it what do i do
what do i do when my iphone is stuck on a screen that has the itunes circle on it and a picture of the usb cord connection on it it is just frozen
You probably have to go through a restore of the phone.
Plug the phone in and launch iTunes, then select your phone from the left side of the menu.
There will be an option to restore the phone and click that button.
That will erase and restore the phone. After it's done, it will ask you to restore from a recent backup, and you can choose to go ahead and restore.
You should be back up and running from there, but may have to do some minor tweeks to get yourself back up exactly as you left off. Some things like your visual voicemail password and email passwords may have to be entered again, but you'll be in good shape. -

When I turn on my iPad the screen is the iTunes icon and usb cord. I can not go anywhere. Stuck on that page? What do I do?
iYou are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost. -

my iphone died and when I plugged it in to charge a usb cord came up on the screen at the bottom then an error on top of it pointing to the itunes logo is the only thing my phone shows on the screen, what do I do?
You could try restoring and staying away from that backup. I've had that happen to me before on my iPhone 4 from a corrupt backup. You could be coincidently mixing the two issues, sounds to me like you got lucky and your phone is A-OK but you may be using a corrupt backup.
