I brought up the Win 7 Device Manager and uninstalled the device and deleted the driver. Then I connected my wife's 2.1 phone. My laptop installed it, including a driver, and I was able to see it in Windows Explorer. I powered my 2.2 phone off and then on again, disconnected my wife's phone from the laptop, and connected my phone. The laptop installed it, including a driver, and I was able to see it in Windows Explorer. It now behaves in standard 2.2 manner. As long as I have not connected it to anything else, I can connect, disconnect, and reconnect it to my laptop. Once I have connected it to a charger, I must reboot it to get it to connect to the laptop.
