HTC TOUCH DIAMOND use as modem

hello,
I have an htc touch diamond and I can't use it as modem,
Mention that I have on my pc windows mobile center...
every think is work ok, the only problem is, I can't see it like a modem,
I have found some topics here, on this forum and I have trry some drivers but isn't work,
any ideeas?
thanks very much!

What have you tried? Normally, when your synced, you can start using internet on your pc/laptop by opening the "Internet Sharing" application on your Touch Diamond. After this there'll be some drivers installed on your PC, enabling Bluetooth PAN. These were the only things I need to do on my Vista workstation, after this I was able to browse the internet on my laptop using the Touch Diamond.
It's pretty fast as well, using HSDPA. I can reach download speeds up to 150KB/s! Good luck!

it is in Italian language and I don't understand it very well,
Now I have connect it yo my laptop
I will try to install English language to my phone, because I don't understand very well Italian language...
thanks a lot!!!

Hi, like zmeutz I'm trying to setup my diamond as a modem.
Works great with IS and bluetooth PAN. But what I'm looking for is the diamond as a simple Modem.... It should be possible as when using any kind of "terminal" application over a bluetooth serial link connected to the diamond it does response to AT hayes commands....
However, when I try to use a ipaq to connect to the diamond through DUN it does not work....
I'm trying to do this for two purpose:
1/ Connect my ipaq running TTN6 so it gets traffic information from tomtom server. PAN works, but it's a pain compared to DUN. You need to activate BT on your diamond, run internet share, clik on two fields to set it up. Then click on connect to make it active. Then you need to go back to you IPAQ, before running you application, launch BT, got to settings, click on the diamond short cut for PAN. Then you can can launch your navigator on your IPAQ.... If you loose your connection, you need to start all the process again.....
While with dune, you would just need to activate bt on your phone.... The rest would be transparent as soon as you IPAQ application tries to connect to internet you get the connection...... At least it's the way it worked with my motoroal (razr).....
2/ sending faxes..... For this I need a true modem ;-).
Any ideas other that PAN?
Rgds,
JP.

HTC Touch Diamond Internet Sharing Problems
I have a HTC touch Diamond and I did as stated above but my phone asks for server information. But I have unlimited data, why doesnt it just continue on with the Evdo it has?

lol
all you need to do is install Microsoft active sync, then use the usb lead to plug in your diamond.
A menu will pop up, press internet sharing, your computer will recognize the phone as a network connection and drivers will be installed, hay presto your online
You can also use your bluetooth in the diamond and laptop.
Pair your device with the laptop, goto internet sharing, select bluetooth and connect.
Then goto (xp) Start - connect to - bluetooth pan
it will then connect to the device.
This way is slow but it works.
I have also written a guide on how to use you phone as a proper access point, search for it.

and if it doesnt appear
I've tried several times to set up my phone as a modem.
I have installed active sync on my laptop, but if i connect my Touch diamond "NO" menu pops up. Where can i find this menu? On my laptop or phone? And can anyone direct me to it. THNX

HTC Touch Diamond does not support Bluetooth DUN profile.

Its not worth the trouble. I would buy a dedicated usb modem. Only 20-30 Dollars

Using Diamond with Car-PC via bluetooth?

Hi there,
I got a car-pc since a while and have been using my sony ericsson with it... calls get transferred via bluetooth to the computer, as like phonebook in integrated into the car-pc software... all transmitted via bluetooth...
Now with the diamond, how do i set it up as a phone? winXP doesnt recognize other services than the moden funxtion

you should enable Remote SIM access on you Diamond: Start -settings - connections bluetooth SIM acces and also activate the service for your BT connection (do this in the first tab of the BT settings dialogue after connectig)

already done :-( But the Computer doesn't list other functions than modem for the HTC
Do i need any drivers for XP? Usually not...

Using Diamond & CarPC Via Internet sharing over BT
I have a CarPC in my car, it has a 7" touch screen & it is running WinXP and have built in Bluetooth. So for surfing in the internet , MSN, Skype in my car over the carpc i am using my HTC Diamond with the Internet Sharing icon and connecting it via Bluetooth to the carPC so i get FAST Internet over Bluetooth between my carpc and my HTC Diamond.
It works very good - very stable.
Matter of fact it is "capturing" my 3G Internet and pass it over Bluetooth to the carpc.
Solution works very well.

k, but i am not interested in using it as internet connection, i want to phone via the computers hardware, so the car-pc should act as an headset... besides that, he shoult be able to access the adress book and to begin calls... that for, i neeed 2 comports emulated, but how to create them?

could it be because the device is seen as a PDA, and not as a mobile phone?
I know somewhere here on XDA there is a reg hack for earlier devices to make them appear as a mobile phone to car kits. maybe the same thing will help here. I don't know where it is, can only suggest searching, unless anyone else can point you in the right direction....

I used to have PhoneConnector on my CarPC, with PhocoAdapter on the phone. It worked, but now this software is not supported anymore and unfortunately it does not work with WM6.
Freefone is not compatible either.
My good Blackbaron, I believe we users of CarPCs and Windows Mobile are scr...d!
By the way, sharing the 3G connection workds a treat, by USB, BT, Wifi... I just wish Vodafone would allow other ports than port 80

I still didnt realize what 3G is... ^^ I never owned a ppc before...

Well, on the CarPC the internet speed is as great as a DSL line, here is France I measured it at more than 3.5 MB/s (KS20 is limited to 4 MB/s with HSDPA, who knows why). Coming from the crappy Edge Motorola phone I had before, the browsing is truly amazingly fast!

1) Launch the Internet Sharing application on your phone (all WM6 phones have it)
2) Select your 3G connection, and BT or USB, tap "Connect"
3) USB: have ActiveSync installed on the PC, connect the USB cable, it's done.
4) BT: you have to set up a BT PAN hosted from your phone, add your PC to it, it's done.
5) If your provider uses a proxy, setup Firefox to use it (Tools/Options/Advanced/Network)
6) If your provider has a filter on User Agent, then you need the plug-in "User Agent Switcher", to put the same User Agent string as on your phone.
There you go!

Can I use this Diamond as a WiFi Dongle?

Hi all, had a pretty big crash course with the Diamond today since reading on these forums.. but one thing that I'd like to be able to do but not sure if I can is connect a desktop PC to a wireless network using the phone...
IE- Share the Wifi down the USB cable.... is this possible?
Thanks in advance!
Dan

Scroll down to Software and Games and check out the 1st in the second row..

nearly! that uses gprs to allow another pc to connect wireless...
i want to do this..
internet ~ wifi router ~ diamond ~ usb ~ desktop. basicly saving me having to by a wifi card for my desktop

You can afford a HTC Diamond but you can't afford a $30 wifi PCI card?
Even the effort you need to put in to make it work could already cost > $30

Doesn't the WinMobilerouter software on this forum do this now in the 1.20+ versions?

Sometimes it's not about the costs but about another device you have to carry. If the Diamond could connect to 802.11a I'd already use it that way too.

Exactly, I like the idea of having a WiFi Dongle on me all the time. I use various different Desktops and I have a laptop as well. Really its to get my laptop connected when I'm on the move.
WiFi is pretty much everywhere now, it just depends on if you can access it or not...
I'll check WinMobilerouter, thanks

can I use the topaz as a modem (and some other advice) please

Hi all.
Thinking of getting either a HTC TD2 or a HTC touch HD
the general feeling is that the td2 is the one to go for (i am sure that apart from the screen size the td2 is better)
As i have to ditch orange (they have just stopped the htc thd) I thought i might get a data bundle.
Is it possible to get a data bundle and then use the phone as a modem for my laptop (thus saving having to buy a dongle)?
also, sorry about this, but can you confirm if either the thd or td2 will work with tomtom6.
If not i presume i have to buy both tt7 and a whole raft of maps.
Any other advice for a newbie potential owner is appreciated
Thanks

Use the TD2 as a modem:
- Connect laptop and TD2 by pairing with BlueTooth or using a USB cable.
- On the TD2, run the wm6 default program Internet Connection Sharing and choose either BT or USB
- On your laptop, right click the BT systray icon and connect to PAN network

Thanks for the prompt reply
sorry for being thick but i dont think i Have a BT systray
so long as its possible thats ok
all i need to do now is choose which phone and find the best place to buy one
Thanks

Better to plug your phone into the laptop using USB, that way the laptop keeps the phone powered while you're surfing.
When you plug the phone in, it will ask you if you want Antivesync, Data Drive or Connection Sharing. Just select Connection Sharing and all will be doodly.
TT6 doesn't work - you need TT7 (7.910 or 7.915) and yes you have to re-purchase all your maps. Also, the TD2 is not supported by Tomtom which means you cannot use any services such as Traffic so you'll have to disable them.

Bluetooth

Hi,
I just bought a Bluetooth dongle for my PC. (Trust Ultra Small Bluetooth 2.1 Usb Adapter 25 M)
The main reasons for buying this was so I could sync without using one of my very spare USB ports.
Another big reason was that I really want to try SideShow.
So, I hooked the thing up, installed it. Works like a charm for most services (files etc). It just doesn't work for two things: ActiveSync (on the phone)/Windows Device Center (on my PC) and Windows SideShow. Yay.
Could you please help me out?
To summarize:
PC with Vista Home Premium,
Trust Ultra Small Bluetooth 2.1 Usb Adapter 25 M,
HTC S730.
Not working for ActiveSync nor SideShow.
x5x_tim
PS: I installed something called "X86-PC Drivers.cab" I found in some thread. That's supposed to be the drivers for the SideShow service on the PC. (I think I installed them, I did not get an error from Rundll32...)
EDIT: what might be of use: I can't get the devices to pair if I use the PC to initiate that. The PC does not find the phone untill I pair them using to phone to initiate.

I don't know about SideShow but I managed once to ActiveSync my Wings through Bluetooth. Just be sure to remove any security restricition on your Bluetooth settings on your device. Like Secure Connection etc... Also, setup a serial port when you connect with your PC and then, at PC ActiveSync settings, at connection settings -> Allow Connections To One Of The Following (Com 4 or whatever). And then, at ActiveSync on your mobile, connect through Bluetooth. Try it and come again if it doesn't work.

Yes! Thank you. It's syncing as I type. That COM4 did the trick!

In the same way, you can have Internet on your mobile through Bluetooth's activesync connection. It is helpful if you don't have wifi on your mobile.
