How To Upload Music To The T-Mobile G1 Android Phone!
The T-Mobile G1 Google phone has a pretty great music player, and the Marketplace has quite a good selection of downloadable video players to sort out the mobile movie watching side of things, but how exactly do you put them on there without some kind of iTunes-y saviour?
Well, it’s a lot easier than you might think, and thanks to me, you too will know how!
1. Connect your Googleicious G1 to the computer via a miniUSB cable.
2. You will see it come up with something along the lines of ‘Android Device attached.’ This is a good thing.
3. Open up ‘My Computer’ and the G1 will be listed here as a removable disk (hopefully). This is the microSD which is inside the G1, and ripe to have some music moved to it!
4. Check on the handset’s ‘Notifications’ pulldown tab from the top of the screen. There should be one new note saying ‘mount USB’ or something along those lines. Do it and then the PC can talk to the G1 properly.
4. Create a folder named ‘Music’ and another named ‘Movies’ for, you guessed it, music and movies!
5. Drag and drop your fave tunes and mp4 encoded movies into the respective folders, and you should be fine!

Отлично…
I have done what you said and have put the music in the folder, but how do I make actually go to the phone itself? It isn’t uploading it to the phone. Help!
I only get slected songs that show on the phone like it acts as if its a set number and then when I plug my phone up to the computer and open the music folder it has all the songs I added there. What is the song limit? Because I’m able to put them in the folder they just don’t all add onto the phone playlist
Really? Why the G1 removable desk didnt pop in my computer?
The removable disk isn’t showing up in my computer either.
Thanks for the info… It worked for me… However I would suggest to those it didn’t work for to do #4 before doing #3. i plugged mine it but it didn’t show up as a removable disk until i did step 4.
По правде говоря, сначала не очень то до конца понял, но перечитав второй раз дошло – спасибо!
Спасибо за статью. Восхищена как всегда
@Connor. I had the same issue and then I turned the phone on and off and it automatically found the music then.
