Requirements and Included guide : 1. Get a data cable to access the phone at first
2. Download and Installation of PC Studio IH1 [Download here]
3. Installation and usage of TKFileExplorer聽 [Download here] (Used to access the Internal Memory of the phone)
4. Accessing Admin Settings w/ Master Key
5. JADGen: [Download here] (Used to generate .JAD files from .JAR files)
2. You can also get TKFileExplorer to work with just the USB Modem Drivers if you want standalone drivers (No PC Studio)[ Download Usb Modem Driver here] ( Used if PC Studio doesn’t load the proper drivers or you just want standalone drivers)
How to install the PC Studio IH1:
1) Once downloaded run the setup file. (Make sure the phone is unplugged)
2) Now Connect your USB Cable to your phone. Make sure the phone is set to ‘Samsung PC Studio’.
(Menu -> Settings -> Connectivity -> Select USB Mode -> Samsung PC Studio)
Let the drivers install.
3) Once finished you might have to restart PC Studio IH1 as well as your phone to detect properly (while still connected). Once detected it should say ‘SGH-A887 Connected’.
How to Installation and usage of TKFileExplorer
1) Download TKFileExplorer: [here] or search through the forums. Run the program and it should look like an explorer window. (Make sure PC Studio is closed as well as the tray icon)
2) Go to Settings -> COM -> Click on the drop selection under ‘Port’ and select one that鈥檚 available.

I got my phone to connect to the New PC Studio program but when i try to go into TK File Explorers settings and change the port i dont have a selection in my drop down menu… I tried manually typing the port into the space and trying to connect but it keeps saying: “Warning: Unable to open the specified port. Please try again.” I try again and it says the same thing… Ne help?
Same here…
TkFileExplorer
MSG
Error: The communication is lost
I found the solution.
You have to be sure that PC Studio is the USB-Mode Default… not the Ask one.
Then you need to check the port (COM) available by going to:
MyComputer/ *rightclick in the empty area*/Properties/System Properties/Hardware/Device Manager/Modems/ SAMSUNG Mobile Modem/ *rightclick*/Properties/ and then check what COM Port is Using the cellphone.
For finish turn off the cellphone and turn it on again, when the AT&T bar is loading put the COM Port in the TkFileExplorer and set the connection before the loading finish.
Tried all of this and still no Com port!
Tried this too, several times, and “no port” also. Anyone else have a fix for this?
I have connection but for jar files transfer I have a msg TkFileExplorer Application has encountered a problem and need to close, then a TKFE error communication is lost, Im usingg COM16 following DannyJoel instructions
I set the port speed to 230400 in device mgr for the phone. Its what matched closest to the baud rate in TkFileExplorer. I had to then manually set the com (”COM3″ for my pc) and hit ok. Then i went to File>Connect and it connected.
