I know this is a WM board but i gotta ask u guys cos the knowledge here is very good, my friend has a SE w850i and he want a program like wm5torage, if you know any, or know a specific Sony ericsson board?

To the best of my knowledge, new SE have this built-in and selectable from a menu when you plug the phone in. What happens to your friend upon connecting?

he wants to use it as a protable memory for his car stereo with an usb jack, i do that with my phone, and it works great, but my mp3 wont work, dunno why cos it appears like a portable device in windows but the car stereo just says usb usb then fm radio again, i guess he has the same problem...

Precisely, what is shown on the phone display? There should be a menu: http://www.knowyourmobile.com/sonyericsson/sonyericssonw850i/sonyericssonw850iuserguides/101/using_the_w850i_as_a_usb_drive.html

when he plugs it in, the menu appears and he select file transfer, but it wont work...

Do I understand you right? It works with the computer but not the car stereo, which refuses to accept the MP3 player too? Then it's just an incompatibility. And as that SE is not a smartphone, all you can ask for is a firmware upgrade - check SE site.

whenever you connect it it turns the phone off and asks if u want file transfer or some other stuff
