   Review - Nokia DKU-5 Cable Driver

   1.24 (Jan 25, 2012)

   ok guys...
   Couple days I've been trying to connect old 5140i to PC. Wasted like 8 hours of my life and I really hate when I need few hours to make things that should be made in 10 mins.
   Anyway...
   CA-42 cable didn’t work for me in any way and I tried bunch of different tips and tricks.
   Then I took DKU-5 cable and guess what? I connected 5140i to PC in 20 min
   It wasn’t smooth but 20 mins it’s not 8 hours huh..
   I did uninstall everything to clean and made it again for this guide so it's work for me 100% and I hope it’s gonna work 100% for you too.
   
   So my system is Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
   Download PL-2303 USB Controller from http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?id=31
   Version 1.5 available at this time
   So…
   
   1. Connect DUK-5 cable to USB
   It’s not gonna be recognized by system and Device Manager will see it like Other Devies > USB-Serial Controller C

   3. Reconnect DUK-5 cable. Now Device Manager will see it as Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port (COM4). Port depend on availability and you can change it. Right click > Properties > Port Settings > Advances.

   4. Install Nokia PC Suite. At the very end of installation when it ask choose connection just cancel - click on X
   
   5. At the main Nokia PC Suite window go to Settings > Manage connections and unclick Serial cable (CA-42). I tried maybe 10 times to not unclick but it was impossible to connect phone so unclick it

   6. Connect phone to the cable. You’ll see message Data enhancement connected following by Data enhancement not supported.
   Sometimes there is only 1st message but usually both or sometimes you if you get 2nd message you need reconnect phone not to get 2nd message again. But this is doesn’t matter because you can connect phone anyway
   
   7. At the main Nokia PC Suite window go to Settings >Add more phones. Choose Cable connection > Next
