SAme here. It's a known issue
Im thinking to try:
Mobile stream USB Modem for PPC.
Somebody have test it?
IM getting the same thing now. If this is a known issue, and this was like 3 months ago is there any more news on this? Its becoming a right old pain in the backside for me right now!
I have two hermes, both with the same problem. I connect using dial up (bluetooth) but 300 kbps instead of 800
I can connect just fine over IrDA when using GPRS. I don't have bluetooth on my laptop, but I guess the transfer rate over bluetooth is to slow for a fullspeed connection. I can't test that either: I have the low-budget option Pocket Internet Total from T-mobile which is downgraded to 64kbps over UMTS.
For using fullspeed UMTS (3G) even HSDPA, I would recommend using the USB connection.
Two things that can make trouble:
a) I found was that when using the USB cable, I had to disable the automatic connection some programs try to make (such as direct push)
b) I used COM8 for my bluetooth gps: after setting the gps to com0, I could connect without any problem
I read in some thread that you had to disable the advance network features over USB but as far as I can tell that only limits the speed over usb (my guess: USB 1.0 (1.1) in stead of 2.0)
I have a tytn and it works great, I get 3g speeds between 900 and 1300.
1) Plug the usb cable into your pc
2) Make sure you have activesync USB connection disabled
3) Disconnect your gprs or 3g connection (this is real important)
4) Activate the wireless modem app, start connection
5) make sure your gprs/3g connection is inactive
6) plug your pda into the usb cable
7) pc recognizes the wireless modem
8) install driver
9) Create dial up to *99# or whatever your carrier uses
10) Again make sure your gprs/3g connection is inactive
11) dial using your dialup shortcut
after the first time, all you have to do in make sure your gprs/3g connection is disconnected, start the wireless modem app, plug into your usb cable, dial the *99# using your wirelss modem dialup shortcut
I have it working on both Windows Xp and Windows Vista...It is a great backup to my local internet connection and it is very easy to use
Pardon me if there is a difference, but on my Hermes to use its internal data connection as the bearer you have to use *99# (NOT #99*) as the number to dial when configuring the dial-up connection in Dial-Up Connections.
When I tried it (several times) on my XP laptop, it was almost childishly simple: regardless of whether the phone was already plugged in via USB or not, just load the wireless modem app, set the APN to general.t-mobile.uk, hit Start and bam: I wait for it to initialise (the lights in the application window light up to show connection and data, and once those show up just hit dial. No username, no password, Robert's your mother's brother. Worked every time I tried it.
Using a T-Mobile UK-branded Hermes fwiw.

the only CD i have that came in the box is the one that gives you ACTIVE SYNC and OUTLOOK.
Where online can I get the drivers?
My problem is my computer is not recognizing this phone as a modem.

Why not read the Hermes wiki for some very usefull information:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
The hermes wiki Faq http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_FAQs would have pointed you to a link to download the htc wireless modem driver:
http://www.box.net/public/jytpxq47nk
or search google for HTC Wireless Modem download
and you would have found instructions at

Good Luck....

Hi!
Has someone a solution / configuration for to get windows working with xda2 as a modem?
i'm pretty sure it works as a bluetooth modem without any software
Using XDA as a modem to your PC
VIA BLUETOOTH CONNECTION & GPRS:
If your PC does not have an integrated Bluetooth connection, you must first install a Bluetooth dongle (USB to Bluetooth) on your PC, with the related software (widcomm or other)
Open on your PC in the Control Panel the Phone and Modem Options
Choose Modems, pick the Bluetooth Modem, then click on Properties
Click on Advanced tab
Type in Extra Initialization commands:
AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”,”xxx”,””,0,0
where xxx is your internet access point.
Now click on the Bluetooth icon of XDA, and choose Discoverable mode
On your PC:
Click on Bluetooth icon (My Bluetooth places)
Click Bluetooth Setup Wizard.
Choose I want to find a specific Bluetooth device …
After a search period, an icon of your XDA is displayed (usually with your owner’s name): double click for settings
From the Dial-up Networking Links, click on SSA
SSA settings:
Modem: Bluetooth Modem
Number to dial: *99#
User name and password, according to Network provider
Yes it works. Im using my cradle/usb connection though and not bluetooth. I am browsing the net for free and using msn for free!! what I dont get is that why, as im using o2s settings, can i access msn via my laptop using my gprs modem, yet i cant access msn using my xda2. I know they both using the same ports! 8080...bloody weird? Or is there something else which affects the connection to net via laptop than there is connecting to gprs via xda2 connection inbuilt. Any ideas?
Drivers needed
Could please anyone post the drivers to use the HTC Himalaya as a gprs modem on my notebook.
I've lost the T-Mobile CD.
QTEK m100/i mate jam
I have been trying without success for two whole evenings to make this htc device act as a wireless usb modem for my sony viao laptop. I downloaded the USB modem dialler utility that is referred to in the sites, and when I physically connect with the USB cable and turn on the wmodem utility on the qtek then it will connect through GPRS and that is a workable if wirebound solution. However, if I disconnect and close the dieler utility, (which doesnt install, it just exe's everytime you open it) I have to fully reboot the laptop before it will connect again.
Using windows to detect the bluetooth modem results in it spotting 3 bluetooth modems, only one of which is available to "query". Using the Vodafone connect (PC) software, (which works with my old sony ericsson t610), with the newly installed bluetooth modem results in an"AT command not supported" failure message. It does this with or without the GCDCONDetc initialisation string in the modem's advanced settings.
Has anyone got a simple HTC bluetooth modem driver or any better ideas? This is driving me bananas.
Thanks
Hello all,
I know this has been covered so many times but I cant seem to get an all in one solution. I can find countless walkthroughs but no drivers anywhere.
I have Tmobile MDA compact which I want to use as a USB GPRS modem on either win xp or win 2000.
I dont have my CD so no driver. Does anyone have the USB driver or a link?
IF anyone uses this I would love to hear some success stories. I did try to do this 6 months ago on an old pc when I first got the device but no luck.
I would really find it helpfull if I could get this working today!!
Thanks!
Hi yarod_g14,
I use this for cheap, but slow internet access. You'll need to find the usb_modemdialler. I'll upload it this evening if you're still interested by then. It wasn't on the cd, found it somewhere on the web. Works great: start wireless modem (set accesspoint in the options) on the magician then connect usb start usb_modemdialer check accespoint & connect. If there's a driver too I'll upload it aswell, can't remember.
Cheers, M
Somehow attachments don't work for me.
That would be so appreciated!
Thanks very much!

Hi yarod_g14,
I've uploaded a tiny zip file USBModem_Dialer.zip in the \USB_modem folder. It contains an inf for the modem & the dialer itself which requirers no installation , just run it. Remember to install the modem first.
Have fun, M
I have had trouble with this up until recently.
1st make sure your gprs connection works by itself on your PPC.
I disabled active sync over usb on both my PPC and my laptop from within active sync itself.
I then loaded up the Wmodem application on my ppc and clicked "tools" in this menu i checked "preset GPRS connection" and in the APN field i entered my APN name (for me it was orangeinternet) after clicking "ok" i was back to the main program screen.....i then clicked "start" and attached my USB cable to my laptop.
My laptop (windows XP) detected a new USB device, which i gave it the modem inf file attached in the post above this then gave me a "HTC USB Modem" in device manager.
Using the USBModem_Dialer.exe application, i had a drop down box at the bottom which was named "HTC USB Modem" and i changed the APN field to my network providers APN address (orangeinternet for me) my network provider does not require a username and password so this was left blank.
I then choose "Dial" after about 10 seconds my laptop causes my gprs connection on my phone to connect and then shows a stanard dial up connection icon in the taskbar.
Hope this helps!

Thnx Impossible,
U filled in the gaps. I included them as .pwi in the new zip upload (same name & place), so everyone can benefit.

Is there any way of getting the Magician to be a IrDA (Infrared) modem, instead of a USB/Bluetooth modem? I need it to be IrDA for my old laptop
Hi jainoxi,
Googling around for 'modem dialer ir' I found this: http://www.pdastreet.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-39280.html
They're talking bout ir pda modem dialing mobile phones & required drivers, so maybe your wishlist is there discussed as well
Cheers, M
Hello!
Impossible: did you set up a new dialup modem connection before to connect the jam via usb?
I mean, i tried to use the jam as a modem. I followed your step by step tutorial. But it doesn t launch any gprs connection on my phone ;(
Could anybody tell me much about this?
thx by advance
This is how I make the connection:
- disconnect magician from usb
- disconnect from gprs
- start Wireless Modem program on magician
- check connection type usb
- check tools -> options: preset gprs connection & give in accesspoint name
- press start button
- disable usb connection in PC AS
- connect magician to usb
- install modem driver
(now you should see your htc modem in the modem control panel item)
- run usbmodem_dialer
- check the modem in the lowest box & access point in the first (tmo doesn't use user/password)
- hit the connect or whatever button to set up the connection, takes about 10 seconds
Now you're connected or you'll receive an error. I noticed that sometimes I have to add a ,0 to the init string from the modem (on the pc)
Does this help?
Well these are the steps i followed but it doesn t work...
I suppose it s linked to a msg appearing when i try to acces modem options configuration tab in the xp's control pannel. It says:
The phone and modem control pannel cannot be opened. This may occur some problem in the phone service' startup (sorry for my translation, in fact my msg comes in french as it s my os language).
So i ll stop with this, i ll format my computer in a month so I hope this will resolve this =)
Thanks anyway!
OK, then good luck with your re-installation. I guess you're problem relies in that area. Too bad cause it works fine.
Regards, M
Anyone got this thing working as a BT modem for a laptop?
Yes it works fine for me. Most of the setup was on the laptop for me.
Follow this instructions the only thing that changes is your carrier settings.
Modem link via Bluetooth for Windows Smartphones
This is a brief tutorial on how to do a modem link with the MPx 220 via bluetooth. This is for connecting to Cingular's GPRS network.
I highly suggest that you have a unlimited data plan before tethering your computer.
1st: Pair your phone to the computer, windows will recognize the phone and install "Standard Modem over Bluetooth Link"
2nd: Go to Control Panel, Modems and Phones and confirm, if its not there try adding it via the add button.
3rd: Highlight "Standard Modem over Bluetooth Link" and click the Properties button. Then select the Advanced tab.
Type in the string you see in the image.
4th: Create a new dial up connection, and make sure you use "Standard Modem over Bluetooth link" mine picked this automatically because its
the only "modem" I have.
5th: In the username field type: [email protected], in the password field type: CINGULAR1 make sure both are in all caps.
Type *99# in the Dial: field and press connect

Yes, it's working flawlessly. See the tutorial at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=510&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
Yup
Works for a Macintosh as well as PC.

obviously there are instructions above, but I too can confirm it works flawlesly via bluetooth on T-mobile UK.
this was an easy set up but have noticed that it is half the speed of the usb, can this be changed or is this the max for bluetooth???
for me the modem connects
but all the pages never loads.
is it cuz i have the 5.99 t-zone plan? thanks
mine connects but the usb cable connects 2x faster
do you notice pages loading faster connecting via usb? or do they load the same as using the BT? i noticed i get alot of timed out connections on certain pages!
Hopefully this can help someine else.
I finnally managed to get the Hermes working as a 3g modem over bluetooth with Vista, funnily enough only after stopping the wireles modem app on the handset.
I took the following steps.
1) get drivers from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279329&highlight=vista
2) partner handest with pc over bluetooth
3) setup dial up connection on pc using your providers user /pass (maxis 3g was maxis/wap)
4) Insert *99# as phone number
5) start wireless modem app, select bluetooth and insert your APN (unet for maxis)
6) start modem
7) dial connection in vista
No Luck
8) stop wireless modem app on handset
9) retry connection in vista
Success
Not sure why it worked but it does repetedly, best of luck
i got mine working quite well. no problems at all based on the steps above, the only problem i have is that the bluetooth connection speed shows as 115k and usb is 230k even though i have HSDPA.
you might have missed out one step, go to "Programs - Wireless Modem". select the bluetooth option then start it. it will work then
Is it something where I can use as a modem if I connect it to my notebook or computer if I don't have internet service or if I am on the road?
I have the Cingular 8125 and have the MediaNet unlimited package...is that all I need to do it or will I be charged for trying this?
Thanks!
Did your phone not come with a manual?
Modem Link uses the data connection on your phone to share the internet connection with a pc or laptop...if you don't have a data connection it's not going to do you any good.
I have medianet unlimited data plan...I did some searching yesterday ...it connected..but I couldn't browse at all...I also tried connecting with bluetooth but it kept saying Error 633
help please...
I have Tmobile and their data plan so I can speak to that. I use the Wizard as a modem and log into the GPRS network. I tried connecting via USB but was never all that successful so I tried via a bluetooth link and it works and works repeatably. First thing you have to do is establish the connection the right way, on my Dell it can be either a dial up networking connection or serial port, here you need dial up network. On Tmobile you dial in by dialing *99# and then you're logged in automatically and I can browse the net, send emails or whatever, it's like a fast dialup but slow by broadband comparisons. I'd have to say I spent a fair amount of time messing around with this using different settings, if you can log into your net then you should be able to browse. I do not use modem link however. I upgraded my ROM to the latest Tmobile rev and it was gone, just as well because I don't need it.
Modem link allows you to use the GPRS connectivity on your phone to connect your laptop/pc to the internet.
To use this you need
USB Cable for your phone OR a laptop with an InfraRed port
HTC USB Modem driver - should be on a CD provided with the phone, O2 UK provide it on a CD labelled Wireless Modem Driver.
_______________________________
Run the Modem Link application on your phone select either "IRDA COMM"(This InfraRed if you haven't guess) or "USB" as appropriate. If using USB connect the phone to the PC/Laptop now, if InfraRed align the ports now.
PC/Laptop will detect the device as Generic Serial and ask what it should do to find driver (assuming your using Windows XP), at this point you use the CD with the driver on browse to the folder containing the driver and click Next.
finish the hardware installation and your modem is ready to go.
If you want to use your GPRS connection provided by your network create a new dial up connection on your laptop set to use the HTC USB Modem as its modem, and set the phone number to *99# username should be the same as in your phones GPRS settings.
Hope this helps.
ok I accomplished setting and running as USB...I dont have infared...but I want to connect wirelessly thru my bluetooth device, "Blue Soleil" ....I'm having trouble..it say I'm connected to COM14 then it automatically disconnects and give me an error "Dialing *99#.... Error 692: There was a hardware failure in the modem (or other connecting device)."
Might not be much help but I always had issues connecting my notebook using Modem Link via Bluetooth. I don't think the BT stack thats on this device plays well with some other chipsets when it comes to modem connectivity. Could just be my experience though. I just broke down and got a short 1 foot USB cable I carry with my laptop.
Media Link is Great
I use Media Link to connect my desktop to the net at home. I live in the middle of nowhere and don't see the point having my wizard and a home phone just to connect at a dial-up speed. That's right, it's not very fast...but it works. If you have T-mobile, put in the cd that you got with the MDA and open it. In the CD you will find an OEM folder that gives you instructions on where to load the driver and how to set up the connection. It turns it into a modem.
I have Cingular and based on your instructions...the CD looks the same where it has the OEM folder and driver..but the installation instructions is only for USB type connection..
I Lost the CD
Can someone post the drivers from the CD? I have lost my CD and I want to connect my computer at work to the internet.. can someone help me out? I have T-Mobile MDA and unlimited internet plant.
