I think u need to find the usb modem driver for the moto v180 and the mobile phone tool. I have a moto v180 as well and thanks to all the ppls in here..I got it to work.
First, I download the motorola phone tool. I think it was the latest version. I also downloaded the usbmodem driver because I'm using the usb cable.
After you download the usb modem, you need to unzip the file into a folder. plug in the usb cable to the usb port then plug it into your phone. The computer will say something like.."new hardware found" etc..and you will have to tell it where to find the driver. You will click on browse and select the folder where you unzip the usb modem driver. select the folder of your OS (operation system)like if you have windows xp then select the xp folder and click ok.
This should locate the driver for the moto v180. After the computer finds the driver for it, you can load the mobile phone tool. When I install the mobile phone tool. it said something like Its missing some files..but i just click on ignore or skip..something like that..and it install it..it works fine for me..
Try that to see if it works for you.

Try this thread. you can find the motorola phone tool here..
