To make the best out of your Oppo A5 you must download its latest USB Driver and PC Suite software. Both these tools can be downloaded from this page in just a single click and that too for free. USB Driver is a must have tool because without it, no computer will detect your phone at all. Which means you can’t copy, transfer or manage the phone with computer. Also if you want to install custom recovery or custom ROM in future on your phone, you must have this driver.
On the other hand, PC suite is a free PC based client for your Oppo phone that lets you manage the phone apps, calendars, notes, etc right away from the computer itself. It also lets you Send and Receive SMS directly from the PC. Using this small tool you can also Sync all your office documents, contacts, emails, notes, appointments etc between phone and PC as well as with Cloud services so that you can access them from anywhere. Using the same, you can even Backup the entire Oppo smartphone on PC in a single backup file including your apps, files, folders, documents, settings, etc safely. You can use this file numerous times to Restore back the phone at its backup state.
