Your phone might be similar to my HTC Evo. In the phone, I had to go to
Settings -> Connect to PC and set 'Default connection type' to 'Disk

So, in the course of actually upgrading all of my ports (via portmaster -a),
which I've been trying to do for weeks and weeks now.
1) 'portmaster -o lang/python26 lang/python25' was successful
2) Python 2.6.6 is installed.
3) 'cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
