First, I'm sorry for what might be an obvious question to many of you out there. I've been struggling for quite a few hours to setup my X7500 as a modem for my laptop. Most of what I've found, though, directs me to the "Modem Link" software. Although, it doesn't seem to be installed on the X7500.
The reason I'm asking this now is because Cingular/AT&T didn't have 3G in the Detroit area until recently and my Universal couldn't use it due to it's 2100Hz frequency. I know some of you have done this, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Also, I'm wondering if the Modem Link software will be in the WM6 build in the next couple of months.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
In WM6 you will have internet connection sharing, replacing the modem software. Really neat!!
There's an app on the Ameo that does just that. Two clicks / taps and you're away. Is that not included with other models of the phone?
Ant
Is the app "Modem Link?"
I'm guessing the application you're referring to is Modem Link? But unless I'm blind I haven't been able to find any reference to it on the Advantage. It looks like my best bet may be to wait until WM6 and hope HTC includes the software in it's version of the ROM upgrade.
Thanks ... also I have to say this is by far the best "PDA" I've had. Everything so far has worked very smoothly compared to my Universal, which every new piece of software was a new adventure in agony. The massive amount of memory and the large screen are much appreciated.
internet connection sharing is in wm5 too!
As Anton.Valleyman stated it takes two taps.
In the programs folder on the ameo is where it is found,and i cant see why HTC would leave it out of their wm5 rom.
If they have then that is taking the mickey!!!!
There is the possibility to make a radio version of Pharos that has wifi enabled?
This is an excellent device, but there isn't the wifi...
I hope that my proposal will be considered
Ya it is an excellent device abd please prof or tom consider and built up a radio for pharos including wifi.........please we r eagerly waiting for that thankyou
Dear users , in order for the phone to have wifi it needs a hardware part , that htc p3470 doesn't have .... so no software can enable a component that a device dosen't have
Good idea, but the WiFi hardware is absent on the device, just don't know how a new radio can provide the function...
Or I'm just so out?
You're so out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400361&highlight=pharos+wifi
To be honest, I dont know if the hardware is intentionally left out.
But since its a standard feature/option in most OMAP 850 versions it would seem at least very possible that its in! But disabled.
Again I dont know if its in, but I assume it is, read the tech specs for yourself!
I was planning to flas an artemis rom, that didnt work (no htccert, but fixing that is doable) but Im kinda scared of bricking my beloved Pharos.. I dont have a spare. bmd19 do you work for HTC? or were you involved in the design of the Pharos? or maybe you work for TI and have knowledge of the parts HTC ordered for the manufacture of the Pharos? How can you say what is and isnt present in a pda? did you know that HTC disabled GPS in the kaiser?
regards
I have no clue of what design there is on the TI-chip in pharos, or any other device. But the most logic thing, is that the wifi-abilities are a seperate chip on the mainboard, with an antenna and the wifi-controller.
This could however be integrated into the TI OMAP850 chip, but that seems unlikely. But there is an possibility. Is there anyone that knows that the wifi-controller is integrated in the OMAP850 chip? If not, cant we just pry the pharos open and look for the antenna/controller? There may not be an antenna as on the other devices, because the pharos was not intended to have wifi, so they could have dropped the antenna.
If the wifi-capabilities IS on the omap850 chip, I know there is a way to enable it. Its just that i dont know how... And it may take a lot to figure it out.
According to this map, there is an wifi-option that HTC may have included. However, that is unlikely. The WiLink-part that is outside the OMAP850 square is essential to wifi-capabilities on the device.

oh im drunk at this point... please dont comment this reply.
My Pharos, if you go into \windows and scroll down, it has some WiFi icons, one of which i select, it then takes me to step thru wifi setup.
I have not yet tried setting this up, and i don't have any links to wifi in start menu, and it is there, but kinda shadowed, not available, in comm manager.
I thought, maybe, if i put in the settings, then maybe switch it on, the menus may then recognise and display it.
after looking thru the windows folder like 20 times
i found the wireless lan but how do i put it on??
some help would be appreciated!!!!(A)
(A)i always think before i do something stupid(A)
i have just send an email to HTC about the wifi support,
i hope they will help us with the connection.
if i receive an email i will reply it on this website,
and if one of u found the solution please send it to me @ [email protected]
Greeting and good luck
(A)i always think before i do something stupid(A)
sorry for my English. got some info? Pharos is the ability to have wifi working. greet.
No. Pharos doesn't have hardware for WIFI, only bluetooth.
There is now way to gain access to wifi with it.
Hi,
I have a question regarding Bloover, if anybody can help it would be much appreciated!
Overview:
Am In trying to write an app that does some snarfing using the AT commands, similar to the way Bloover does. But I'm only interested in getting it working for the Nokia 6310i because its a school project. I'm not trying to hack the world of Bluetooth as I know its near impossible these days! And the reason I'm talking about Bloover as I used that as a base as I've seen it working from my SE K750i attacking my Nokia 6310i, so I decompiled the code to get an idea of how the AT Commands work (most of it is crap as its obfuscated, but you can get an idea of how the hack works)
My problems:
Currently my code will discover and connect to the phone and I am able to send AT commands to it via outputstream and or OBEX Put. Problem is, I'm consistently getting a return error code of 195 (OBEX_HTTP_FORBIDDEN).
So, what I need to know from more seasoned and experienced programmers and hackers out there (you guys! ) is:
1. Does the phone need to be paired before I can send the commands? Its saying its connected, but not paired?
2. Does it need a special AT Command to open it up to accept all commands, e.g. open a port or some kind of way in?
I think thats all I need, (so far!) if anybody can help me with these couple of questions if anybody has done anything similar or just knows how it all works it would be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
DG
OK, Sorry about this, its a bit of a bump, but...
I have some more info, that I don't need to pair with the device, but still can't get it to accept any commands. Does anybody know if a buffer overflow is required for this hack for the phone to accept the commands?
Thanks,
DG.
I have a problem installing this same software on my Samsung Moment
I recently purchased a spy software package to track my childrens phone usage and I cant get it to work on my phone, It installs and I can start Bloover2 but it says faital error just before the splash screen shows up and then it shuts down.
I have the program and can send it to anyone that might want to help me with it. and it may have what you are looking for ''' other programs in the package'''

well I have to tell you that you must have bought a scam. all cell spy apps need to be installed on the victim phone, there is no real tool that can install on your own phone to spy on another phone. my advice would be claiming refund right now. for trusted cell spy apps check the review:

Hi,
I hope someone could help me with an issue we are seeing.
We have two Mantle devices, one on WM6 and the other on WM6.1.
On both devices we are seeing an issue where the device is left for a period of time and the device goes to sleep, another period of time goes by and we then press the power button and nothing happens, we press the power button a few more times and still nothing. We then have to resort to warm booting the device.
1. Has any one else has this issue?
2. Is there a fix for this issue?
Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to your reply.

also have this issues
Hello pauldiston,
we also face this problem here. We currently have 7 Sedna's on duty and all of them have this problem. Especially on monday we have to reset all of them.
I have not found a solution yet, but as we are not the only ones having this it has to be something HTC is responsible for...
Regards,
Andreas
Hi,
I have heard that the O2 have stopped selling the Mantles because of some serious issues with the devices.
In our case, we are thinking that the particular problem is related to the compatibility between the device and an SDIO scanner. However we are yet to confirm this.
Thanks
Paul Diston
Hi, for what it's worth -- I've been using my Sedna intensively since May, running both WM 6 and WM 6.1. I haven't ever run into this issue and I've generally found the phone to be stable. I wonder if it has to do with the O2 version of the ROM, or if it might involve specific software or SDIO devices that you're using?
Alan
Hi,
We suspect it is an issue with the SDIO device however are yet to confirm this as O2 have stopped supporting this device.
Thanks
Paul
Paul,
Did you confirm whether or not this was caused by the SDIO device?
Can I ask what device it was?
Thanks
Alec
Hi,
It did look that way based on the testing we are doing however we never got it confirmed.
We were using the O2 Mantle device and Socket SDIO scanner.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Is it true that 02 have stopped supporting the Mantle?
The company i work for is considering purchasing quite a lot of these & i don't see the point if we will have support issues

Anyone got more info on this please?
I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.
hi we use the p6500 with sdid 1210 scanner we get the same problem if left the the software running and it goes into stand by the unit needs to b reset i have found the problem to b the the software we run to record the chip numbers not the core wedge drivers for the sdid chip.solution is end the software we use to record the numbers on and unseat the chip.next time i get intouch with our surpport i will ask about a solution to the problem hopefully it will help others on here.....just to be nosey what system do the other replies to this thread use them for we run the scanner for recording the oxygen cylinder movement in ambulance station's with surpport from assettrack..
Hi to all.
First of all, let me apologize for my bad englisg/typos which may arise. My phone is the global version, Exynos chipset in 8/128 setup, buyed new 3 years ago and in pristine condition. I'm also a Senior Systems Engineer with a high background in hardware/software/telecom/SoC developing. I'm specifyng this to simply note I'm not a noob.
I'm a sight disabled person since 5 years ago, almost blind with a visual remain, that's why I buyed this handset as its screen was counted as the best of that moment.
One of the main things for which I use my phone is to auto detect and activate certain beacons, specifically the ones presentp in traffic lights (wich acoustically inform wether the light is red or green to safely cross the streets) and in bus stops (to know what's the next bus comimg), etc. For all this I need the device's BT set as 'always visible / discoverable'.
As you may know, beacons are auto activated when a BT device with a .DFA at the end of its name (i.e. 'Galaxy S10.DFA') enters his range. This way a blind person can walk around safely and obtain pertinent information with no need of manipulating the phone in every street crossroad, avoiding risks like someone stealing the handset or hitting and dropping the phone, etc.
I was using the free app Bluetooth Visibility Fix to have the BT set as always discoverable. Everything worked fine... 'till I updated to the last Samsung July 2022 Security Patch (released via OTA update somewhere between the 1st and 2nd August week). This update includes a 'Bluetooth stability improvements' item. From that on, it is simply impossible to use the app (or any other similar from the play store) to set the BT as 'Always visible'.
That made me feel totally dissapointed and of course fully discriminated. Not only me but I'm sure the ones who need this VITAL, yet simple adjustment just to make our lives safer and easier.
I'm wonderingn if there's an app blocking the BT settings that I can uninstall via ADB.
Or, if there's another solution that someone may think of.
Probably a downgrade would revert this situation, but I guess that solution would not be easier for my fellow disabled folks.
Also, I already tried the several BT settings within the Developer Options, but with no luck so far.
I'm circumventing this situation by carryng an old Galaxy J3 2016 configured with that app, but it is only a patch not a permanent solution, and not available to anyone. Note that many disabled people with a visual remains use to have top range Samsung phones because of the outstanding screen quality.
Please, I respectfully ask not issuing nonsense comments like blaning the big G, or 'it's a matter of security' or stupidities the like. If you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem!
Having BT set as always visible has nothing to do with security. Any BT external connection request needs a explicit user permission in the form of accepting a pin code, etc. And anyway I feel that the way of setting BT is a matter that must be leaved to the user will...
Should I'll not be able to obtain some solutions on this, and being a member of the most important company of the world in terms of giving employment and support, not only to blind people but also to others with different dissabilities, I will publicly advise all of our members not to buy any items for such a discriminating company.
Please receive all my best wishes, and thanks in advance for whatever solution proposed.
Thanks in advance.
Manu
Get someone to help you roll it back and then block OTA updates and security updates.
That's the easiest solution... updates can and do break things.
