X1 as 3G modem - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Long story short,
I broke my 3G modem somehow; Huawei E169, it can't find the network but will install fine and try to find it.
I want to pull the SIM out of it and use my X1 as a modem. Last night I tried but couldn't make it connect to the network. X1 is custom unlocked, SIM is Optus in Australia. I have the SP code etc but do not know where to put this in the phone?
Any help would be great thanks!

it works fine on mine.
1. your PCs bluetooth must have the Bluetooth PAN stack.
2. pair PC with X1
3. on the X1, go to Start, then Internet Sharing, then turn on Internet Sharing
4. in Windows, go to your Bluetooth devices folder, right click on X1 and connect via Access Point
5. done
if connecting via USB cable, just do Step 3. and connect USB cable to PC.
apparently the X1 supports Dial-Up Networking (DUN) as an alternative but the setup is much more complicated.

All sorted now thankyou.
I needed to set the correct access point in my phone internet settings.
Will be trying the usb cable and BT very soon. Thanks!

How do i share PPC wifi internet connection to Desktop PC

I have already search this site/ it doesn't give me solution for what i need to do, or i haven't understood what it really says. so please bear and help me if possible.
Situation is -
Two desktop PC
One Kaiser
PC-1 is connected to Dial-up Internet
Wifi Router (D-link) attached to PC-1 for Kaiser's Internet access
I need to use My wifi transmitted Internet signal in to Desktop PC 2 (I don't want to install additional Wifi Lan card in PC-2)
I want to use kaiser's Wifi + Activesync to use the internet on PC-2
Is it possible ???
Thanks
1) Activesync internet passthrough only works the other way
2) If you are prepared to do a reg hack, then you can share your internet connection using ICS from your device to your pc (as it only works via BT or USB normally).
BUT you will need to undo the hack whenever you want to use it any other way...
3) It would be a hell of a lot simpler to buy a USB wifi dongle for second pc though...
Thanks
Thanks for info
These might help you.

Kaiser/Tilt and the Mac

I connected Kaiser (AT&T carrier) to the Macbook Air using the usb port. There was no recognition or reaction to the phone. I wanted to use it to connect to the Internet. Then I established a Bluetooth connection to use it as a modem. The phone was recognized, but every time I ried to connect I was told that a connection is "crossed". Then I tried WMWiFiRouter. Mbair recognized it as a "device" but when I tried to connect to the Internet with it, it would not work.
Is there a way to use Kaiser as a modem for the Mac? What are the Mac settings recommended? Are there any specific Kaiser settings that need to be in place?
Thanks for any help and advice.
In replying to my own question:
I was able to connect perfectly through WiFiRouter by uninstalling the old version of WMWiFiRouter and reinstalling the new one directly from the website. It connected to internet right away.

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!

Click to collapse
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!

Internet through usb cable.

Hello all.
I have googled, searched xda and tried all to get internet sharing to work, via usb, but fail all the time. It is supposed to just work but does'nt. For me.
Any help please?
regards
settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
choose my network or whatever the native network profile is called
rather then my isp or whatever your isp profile is called
should mean that when your phone is connected to activesync
or vista's sync tool
it gets the same network as the computer you're connected to
make sure you have synced your x1 with the activesync software that comes with it then try it make sure you got signal aswell cuz it will not connect without. i use vista and it connected fine it just added another network to the ones i could connect to and obvusly it was the phone so i saved it that way when i plug it in it works straight the way. hopefully this helped
just plug it in and start internet sharing on your x1
Probably want to check your PC network status>>properties>>Advanced and check on "Allow other network users to connect...."
And go to X1 settings>connections>usb to pc and clear(if any) check mark on the 'enable adv network' if having problems.
Are you trying to connect your PC to the Internet through your phone or your phone to the internet via your PC?
doesnt necessarily belong here but since people are reading this thread - how can I do the following:
My laptop is connected to landline broadband connection via cable. Now I want to start a wireless network on my computer and let my xperia connect to. When connected to the laptop ... I want the xperia to be able to use the laptops internet access as well be able to access files that I have given network permission to e.g. movies for example.
There has got to be a way of doing this. So far all i can do is create a wireless network and let my xperia connect to it .. however nothing happens after that .. I cannot access files nor the internet on my xperia
so anybody an idea how to do this ?
thanks
I think you might need a Wireless Access Point for this, although I could be wrong. I have personally never tried it, as I haven't played around with peer to peer wireless networks.
I have an Access Point at home connected to the DSL, my laptop and my X1 both connect to it and access the internet, and that works perfectly.
Sorry I am not of much help.
just create an ad hoc connection on your pc it will appear on the network list on the xperia in the properties of the ad hoc connection tick share internet or something similar
Sharing internet connection with x1
Hello guys! I need to connect my X1 via USB with my notebbok, to share the WiFi connection. The problem is that my X1 has an IP with 192.168.1.102 Ip, (From wireless), but when I connect it via USB to my PC its tooks an IP with 162.85.2.2 Ip Address.
I configured it manually, but still wont navigate trouth internet.
So I don't know hoy to configure my connection to have the same IP range with my phone from my PC.
I searched all over XDA forums, but I didn't find anything-
Please somebody can hel me please?
Regards!
Charly!
Active sync issues the IP when connected via the usb cable, leave it as it is. (ie my home wireless network for the laptop / pc / xbox etc is 192.168.0.xxx but the phone when connected to the laptop is 169.254.2.x and active sync does the routing or something). Then do what the others said about allowing the phone ot connect to the internet via active sync and it should work.

Access Internet on Kaiser via PC

Ok I have been trying to use my pc connection and access that connection through my bluetooth on my kaiser, most I can get is the other way around. Any suggestions
Not sure that Internet Connection sharing in WinMo supports that...just wondering, why the heck would you want to surf the web on a 2.8" screen when you have a full PC available to you?
You can use the remote desktop facility via wifi. But as previously posted... why?! Bluetooth doesn't support a high enough datarate for it to work properly.
Connection at my location is 3G at best so bluetooth is defininitaly fast enough to accomidate my needs just simple stuff.

The best way to get the connection on your kaiser throught the pc is when you connect it using the USB and being connected to the active sync on your pc besides there are no settings need to be made for using this way. I'm not sure if you can connect the kaiser to you active sync on the pc through the bluetooth.anyway let me try it and if anything pops up, i'll let you know
Nope, no additional software required. Just go into Start - Programs - Internet Sharing. Hit connect and connect up your USB cable and you're done.
_Wait for ActiveSync to connect and then exit the programme._________________
Max confusion
What a jumble this thread has become . The O/P wanted to access the internet that's already on his PC and channel that through his TyTN II - NOT the other way around. As already mentioned in one post, one way of getting this is via an Activesync (or WMDC if it's Vista or Win 7 on the PC) connection. For greatest speed this would be via the USB cable but it is possible to have an Activesync or WMDC connection via Bluetooth for greater mobility if there's a need to carry the phone up to 10 m from the bluetooth hub. The other (more straight forward) way to do this is just to connect the phone via WiFi directly to the landline/broadband router (assuming there is a WiFi capable router avail).
Internet connection sharing is only for when the phones internet connection eg GSM/3G or HSDPA is feed to a desktop PC (say if the landline/broadband connection is down). In the O/Ps second post, the reference to Bluetooth speeds made it look like this was what was being saught.
I have done all of these with my TyTN II and had things working well in each case.
