Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

Service: AT&T 3G
Tablet: N810 (Diablo)

Phone #1: Samsung BlackJack WinMo 6.1
Working Status: Does NOT work. Pairs but can not browse the net.

Phone #2: Nokia N78
Working Status: Works perfectly after simple setup.

Phone #3 (Free Trial Phone from WomWorld): Nokia N95 8GB
Working Status: Works perfectly after simple setup.


Not surprisingly my Nokia phones worked flawlessly right out o' the box. WinMo phones seem to take quite a bit of tweaking. Thankfully I prefer Nokia/S60 devices for phones as WinMo just annoys the crap out of me.

Hmmm... I don't think it was deprecated way back then.

The logical course of action, I suppose, would be to copy it to the new wiki?

Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

Hmm, maybe 6.1 is different, but I use a Samsung BlackJack with WM5 and I can use the connection sharing with maemo-pan. Diablo had some issues with this, there was a workaround, and now Nokia has provided a fix. Not as smooth as Bluetooth DUN, but I don't want existing BlackJack users to get the impression that it doesn't work at all.

Tablet N800
Phone Nokia N95
Carrier - Vodafone UK
Plan - Inclusive mins & text + £7.50 no contract unlimited data plan
Works - Perfectly connected to HSDPA over BT 766kbps and 274 kbps upload. I am sure this is a limitation of BT rather than HSDPA.


Tablet N800
Phone Samsung i600 (or Blackjack in the USA)
Carrier Vodafone UK
Plan - Business
Works - Not a hope (as other people have said) No BT PAN avaialble as a service from the phone.

Service Provider (T-Mobile, Cingular, Sprint, etc): Sprint
Phone brand and model: Samsung M500
works on 770 or 800 or both: Only N800 confirmed
Phone plan (whether it be Voice, Data, Internet....please be specific): SERO Fair & Flexible - Voice, Data, Text

This phone seems to forget some bluetooth devices that it has paired with for some reason, but it remembers my N800 nicely. The phone has rather poor battery life, and only has Bluetooth 1.1, which means that any device is limited to 32KB/s up or down.

Please, also use this page in the new wiki:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Bluetooth_Netw...ed_Cell_Phones
It already contains information about 100+ phones on one single page.

Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

Out of curiosity, has anyone been able to get a Sidekick LX (with unlimited data plan, obviously) to work with an 800? I've been able to pair them, the connection reads as T-Mobile in the manager (so this should be a good sign), but getting the 800 to connect to the internet this way...well, I've yet to be successful. Not sure if I'm missing a step or if it just won't work.

Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

Well, I just got a regular phone (Nokia 3555b) with T-Mo USA, and rediscovered a problem in the N800's t-zones settings: The proxy IP was given as nnn:nnn:nnn:050 which doesn't work; changing it to nnn:nnn:nnn:50 straightened things out. I know sidekick data is a beast of it's own, but I know they use some proxy as well, so check for similar issues?

Edit: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.p...#T-Mobile_APNs has some info.

Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

I believe the 3555 is one of 2 3G Phones Tmobile has, so it might be a standard handset but it does have a 3G modem. I have been wanting to test it out, but then again you might be in an area where 3G is not switched on yet. So far only the east coast(NYC) has it. I am in Dallas and went to a Tmobile store while in NYC in June and they seemed clueless about me wanting to test it. I didn't have time to wait to talk to a manager but I wanted to test it with the n810.

My Nokia E70-2 (USA) works fine with my n810 on Tmobile. Had to change the internet2.voicestream.com to internet3 to work with my data plan under the default settings for Tmobile Internet on the n810.
It was slower than I though it would be(seems much slower than a laptop via bluetooth) especially compared to Wifi on the n810. It's almost like the bluetooth slows down the n810 to the point it slows MicroB down.

Re: Phones that work as Modem Poll
 

Eh, I can't figure it out. I know that I can send stuff via Bluetooth to my husband's Sidekick, so I figured that there should be some way to piggyback on his data plan. I tried various things listed in the link, but I would imagine I'm not getting something correct. I'm sure it's as simple as configuring proxies, but unfortunately, I'm not so knowledgeable in that area.
