Transfer Files Between Your Phone and a Computer
You can use the supplied USB cable to connect your phone directly to your computer and
transfer music, pictures, and other content files. For example, if you have a music album stored
on your computer that you want to listen to on your phone with the music player, Google Play
Music, or Sprint Music Plus, just attach your phone to the computer and copy the files to the
Music folder.
1. Connect your phone to your computer using the supplied USB/charging cable. You may
need to remove the USB cable from the Charging Head.
Insert the smaller end of the cable to the USB Charger/Accessory jack at the bottom
of the phone.
Insert the larger end of the cable into an available USB port on your computer.
2. Your phone will automatically detect the connection. When
appears in the Status bar,
swipe your finger down from the Status bar to open the Notification Panel.
3. On the Notification Panel, the type of connection is displayed:
Connected as a media device
: Used for most transfers. You can transfer files in
Windows or from a Mac.
Connected as a camera
: Used for transfers of photos using camera software on
your computer.
To change the connection type, touch
Connected as [xxx]
on the Notification Panel and
touch the desired connection.
4. Follow the prompts on your computer to begin transferring files.
