I've been using the Dopod 838pro as 3G wireless modem via USB quite frequently lately and i noticed the connection only stay up for about 0ne hour whereby ftp download is running, as well as other traffic e.g. yahoo messenger running too on the PC and it shld keepalive the modem connection supposedly.
About an hour, the connection will stop and the wireless modem app will stop (we need to click 'start' b4 connect to the usb port in the first place), and the dopod 838pro will perform active sysnc instead. And on the pc end it will fail the redial, wonder has anyone out there encountered this similar problem ?
I've been changing radio rom to test, still facing similar problem. Latest radio rom on my device is 1.20 and still no luck to maintain long hours of modem connection.
Wondering is this pertaining to the operator or the device itself? I'm living in Malaysia and I'm having unlimited 3G data plan with the mobile operator, Maxis.
I used to have this problem and found it was because my phone was set up to automatically check for new emails every hour.

My direct push is disabled and no automated check email, the modem connection still won't last more than an hour
Is this with Modem Link or the Wireless Modem application?
I had the same issue when connecting my old Wizard to the laptop via Bluetooth, but NOT with the Modem Link. So I assume if you use the Wireless Modem application and Bluetooth, that maybe the issue.

this is wireless modem via USB. Initially my practice was turn off Data connection (with the tweak that data connection always-on enabled) via Comm Manager, then use Wireless Modem via USB thru dial-up networking. Yesterday I disabled always-on tweak, it seems it can last 7 hours of modem connection, will test further to validate this...thanks.

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

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:

Hi, tried to connect to my WIFI router by WPA with TKIP Encryption, but in TYNT isn`t any settings like that. Its availalbe just WEP.
Is any workaround? New driver for wifi or anything?
THX
Hi guys,
I'm currently having problems with wifi in laptop - it's connected to the network but it cannot transfer anything. So I have found a short term solution - to connect my TyTN II to wifi and then use it as a modem for my laptop via cable.
The problem is in Network Connections I can't choose wifi, only Orange Internet (3G). I tried to setup another one but there's no option to setup wifi connection, only cellular or 3G. Any idea how this could be done?
I've tried this across various roms, and i've contributed to topics on the same before, but i haven't found a resolution connecting to an internet connection shared over Bluetooth on the HD.
the issue lies with the HD, as i'm able to connect with my laptop to the WMWifirouter set up phone, and i've noticed on the HD that when trying to set up the BT connection via connection, there are no services available, and ultimately the BT connection isn't setup.
Any help that can be offered in this respect would be appreciated.
Hi DRTigerlilly,
I used wmwifirouter, what version are you using? I can confirm that 1.30 works correctly via bluetooth (the phone assigns an IP address to computer and then connects to internet).
I had problems with previous versions, test with 1.30 and tell us if it works for you.
EDIT: I test with official and dutty's rom without problems.
tried 1.30, more of the same. The problem lies in the fact that i'm trying to connect the HD to another WM Phone running WMwifirouter(an 8525- HTC Hermes).
The 8525 shares the connection fine, the issue is getting the HD to connect to the 8525 to share the internet connection via BT.
When i setup the BT connection btw the HD & the 8525, the 8525 shows a Dialup Networking service, the HD remains blank. When i go under connections to create a new connection, and select bluetooth, the HD again searches for the BT connection, finds the 8525, but is unable to find any services & at this juncture the 8525 is unable to be stored as a BT connection.
When i tried it earlier i was on the Hong Kong WWE 1.57 rom, but i've flashed back to Dutty's v3.
ok so if youre using the internet connection sharing app that comes with the hd you first add the devices to each others trusted lists, go to the internet connection sharing app on your hd, select bluetooth as connection type, then tap connect. then on your computer if its windows xp you should be able to go into your network connections tab and youll see a bluetooth network adapter from there you can connect as bluetooth PAN. depending on what type of bluetooth adapter your computer had it migh be accessible from the settings when you click on the bluetooth icon in your task bar. so remember to connect to the phone as PAN not DUN
i think i must not be explaining myself very clearly. I want to surf the internet on the HD, via a 3g connection on the 8525.
Reflashed my Jade from UK Orange to JADEMAN rom recently...
Can anyone tell me how to force the phone to use Wifi to connect to the internet.
It connects via GPRS fine but i want to disable the GPRS DATA for travels abroad so I don't run up a huge data bill. I can stop the data with "NoData" app, but if I now try to connect to internet with Opera or Internet explorer if fails..
Is there something I am missing, to tell it either to connect via wifi before using GPRS data or to only connect via wifi. Do I need to create a connection ?
The create new connection page doesn't list using WiFi, bluetooth is the only "WIRELESS" type connection that appears to be offered.
Also when the wireless AP list is shown and I try to connect to an AP showing available that I have previously setup with WEP key etc, it fails to connect.
I am sure to be missing something but I can't spot what the problem is...
Any help appreciated.....
