Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I have BT DUN working on my Verizon Samsung u740.
Its basically dead simple once you realize the "operator wizard" bug. All you have to do is select any carrier other than "Verizon", then go back in and manually change the settings to what verizon wants, and bam, everything works.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I've tried that (using other carriers). I apparently don't have the settings that Verizon wants, because I get authentication errors from their server, whether I put in a user/password or not. The number I give it to dial is #777.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

The best one to pick is most likely sprint. They are cdma too. Should work like a charm.
I use internet on the tablet from day one over BT with never a crash or issue. Its totally seamless i leave my phone in my pocket and things just work. The version 2 choc. totally rocks as a modem.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I have tried Sprint. The problem appears to be the login credentials. Using #777 as the number, they connect, but then I get "Remote server error" if I leave the password/username blank, and "Authentication error" if I give it anything in those fields. So, what I need is the correct username/passwd combination. If someone's willing to supply those, please send me a PM...thanks.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

People, please search www.howardforums.com for how to tether your phone via bluetooth. In most cases you have to make modifications to your handset BEFORE even attempting to dial #777 and connect online.

This page might help (for KRZR K1m, but other phones employ similar methods)

You cannot just take your unmodified phone and connect it to the N8x0's in most cases, especially without a dedicated data plan.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

But I HAVE the unlimited dedicated data plan...just not the extra $15/mo DUN plan. I'd only need to use this when I'm out in the middle of BFE with no wireless access points available,

It appears that the link you gave was pretty specific to the Moto KRZR. Anyone have a link to a similar procedure on the Treo 700p? I don't run WIndoze very often but have one box here which dual-boots with it; it always sees the 700p as a Palm PDA device rather than a Bluetooth modem.

I will take a longer look at howardforums.com, though - looks like there's some pretty useful stuff there.

Thanx

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

Just wondering here..but what is the difference between modifying your handset like shown on Howardforums, versus the was the person got connected in the first post of this thread?

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

Thanks for all the info but I STILL cant get my N800 to connect to the internet using the verizon razr. I've tried all the suggestions in the list above, but no luck. Has ANYONE been able to do this successfully?

Thanks,

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

Nearly every Verizon Wireless phone needs to be tweaked first. The Motorola phones must, generally, be flashed as well. This includes the RAZR.

I'm going to do a quick writeup after this.

General instructions are at:

The download from this link is no longer available

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

The instructions are still spot-on, though :)

QPST is quite illegal to distribute, so I can't help you there.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

Visit http://hacktherazr.com/

Even though this site is dedicated to the RAZR, they have a very good download section (wink wink).

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I tried following the steps in this thread to no avail. I had a Treo 650 which I easily paired with the N800. However when I tried to pair my LG Voyager - Verizon provider- with the N800 I could not get it to work. Even though I have paired it with the phone when I try to make the connection I keep getting "Authentication Failed" Can anybody help? Has anyone successfully connected to the LG Voyager?

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I also have had problems connecting. thanks to the generous people on this forum- I have been able to get my LG VX8300 and the N800 to recognize each other!
That's where the fun stopped.
I have the $60/month data plan with the USB modem- and thought maybe just maybe I can now use the n800 on the road- which is where I spend 1/3 of my life! Dragging out the laptop is sometimes not an option- therefore the N800....

What happens is when I try to connect- all seems to be going according to plan- the phone exhibits its EDVO messages- but then the N800 displays "Authentication failed"

I have checked my settings, used vzw as my password, used my mobile number with @vzw3g.com as user name and #777 as the dial up number.

I don't want to hack my mobile device as I'm always the one to get caught- and I don't have $800 to pay and then maybe get the payment reversed later...

Can anyone out there help me get over this last hurdle?


I really love the N800 when I can get to a hotspot- but that really doesn't happen too often!

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!:confused:

Anor,
try out this thread I found. http://www.aximsite.com/boards/x51-h...lg-vx8300.html Since you are already subscribing to EVDO broadband service I don't think they can try to charge you for connecting through your phone instead of usb dongle.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I'm trying now to make a bluetooth connection on the XV6800 to the N810. I've installed the WM6_BT_DUN.cab but it still says connection failed to phone XXX. Not sure if anyone else has this phone on verizon with a data plan, but I thought I'd post and see if someone managed to get this to work for them.

Is there a registry edit I'm missing? Must I use pdanet? I'd rather ask for applying the trial and error approach and further...

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I have sprint centro (Palm OS) with Win XP, and had same message. I was able to get rid of it by deleting devices from both PC and Centro in Bluetooth Trusted Devices. Then reboot PC. Add the device through the PC Control Panel/Bluetooth Devices/Devices/Add. It only seems to work when I use 0000 as the passkey. Letting windows choose passkey or choosing my own passkey other than 0000 did not work.

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

verizon is quite draconian and very specific with the TOS

unless you subscribe to the data and tethering plans/options (very expensive- about $60/month as i remember) you cannot tether w/o violating the TOS

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

cool thread...

I tried to use the connection I had and it worked. However the first page I go to it says "you can use Verizon on the go etc etc etc... if you fork over $60 per month access fee, and a 5GB limit.

:(

way to spoil my party

Re: Bluetooth verizon access solved
 

I have the treo 700/750wx can I did the process in the first few posts on this thread. I am on the verizon network. When the connectivity settings came up, I chose t-mobile, selected "data call" button, and used #777 for the phone number--no user, no password. Voila. Happy.
