So I spoke with Kyocera technical support the other day... They do not publicly provide provide USB diagnostic drivers - on purpose to prevent flashing phones at the bequest of the carriers.
There is a guy over on CDMA Gurus who created some custom drivers based off a Sanyo model for the Kyocera Milano:
Kyocera milano custom drivers here!
I was unable to get the file there but after some digging on Google I found some folks over at XDA discussing it:

They couldn't get it to work. I tried hacking the inf for the Hydro by replacing the PID. I am still missing the referenced QUALCOMM Incorporated USB Modem/Serial Device Driver "syusbser.sys". Does anyone know where to get this? I found what I think to be similar driver on the filetube sites "qcusbser.sys" and renamed it. The drivers install but CDMAWS/QPST still cannot communicate with the phone even tho the com port is visible. Not sure what is going on.
Anyway for $200 and a Hydro he will make custom USB Diagnostic Drivers. Unless anyone else here knows how to do it or has the time to mess with it, if enough folks are interested basically it would be pretty cheap. We would be one step closer to custom ROMs among other things.
In the interim I may just pick up a Samsung Prevail since it already has USB diagnostic drivers and custom roms available. I need a dependable phone to use as a daily driver while I play with this one and it would be a good backup in any case.
