[Q] XP Device Manager USB Modem - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I have a Windows Application that works with dumb phones like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, etc.
I am trying to make it work with my Google Nexus One.
Among other things, I found that this application looks for GSM modem and I found that under Device Manager, Nexus One does not appear as a GSM Modem.
Please see the attached screenshot.
Can anyone assist in resolving this for me?
What should I be doing so that Nexus One appears as a GSM modem under Modems in Device Manager in Windows XP?
Thanks a lot

It won't, no matter what you do.
What are you trying to accomplish with your application?

Network Sharing Program (easy question for anyone with a Kaiser...)

With many other HTC phones, i know that they have a program called 'Network Sharing' which very easily enables you to use the phone to connect to the internet via bluetooth or usb on a computer. The latest one i've seen would be the Cavalier, which when connected via usb would show as a network connection in Vista, per this program.
I am wondering if the Kaiser has this, I would assume that it does (when bought directly from HTC, as i know AT&T would disable something as user friendly as this).
Anyone who has this phone currently, would you be able to help me with this?
Thanks,
elbweb
P.S. I am picking this phone up tomorrow, so hopefully the answer to this question won't cause any regrets beforehand...
yes
enjoy!

Well this was something I already assumed would be included and happy to hear I was right in my assumption. In regard to AT&T removing such a user friendly option, they did in the original shipped wm5 rom but the update wm5 did include "Internet sharing" just a comment for those that would be worried at&t wouldn't include this.

Tilt 'HTC USB Modem' driver needed (for Windows XP)

Hi
I am missing the original CD that shipped with my AT&T Tilt Package. Would anyone be kind enough to upload the USB Modem drivers available on the CD please.
I have read the Wiki and I have looked over the forums for it, all I could find were the Vista Drivers for the same, but not the XP divers.
Thanks for looking.
do you have the latest version of Microsoft Activesync installed? If not, you should download it from Microsoft.com and it should be ready to sync.
I do not need ActiveSync
Hi
I already have ActiveSync 4.5 installed. HTC USB Modem drivers are different, they allow the kaiser to act as a dial-up modem that we can connect to a laptop computer.
Although we can use the 'Internet sharing option' in Kaiser for the same purpose, I just wanted to experiment with this alternative.
I am sure the drivers are available on the AT&T CD, I just need someone to upload it here.
IntShrUI
Hey, I have a Tilt too. I was messing around using the Tilt as a modem. I have the drivers, but I couldn't get the Tilt to dial right. I found on this forum a program called IntShrUI. It is in the Windows folder of your Tilt. Just run it and follow the onscreen instructions. You don't have to dial anything. Just plug the Tilt into your computer, click connect on the Tilt, and the internet is up. I can give you more info, I am looking for the thread. I can upload the drivers when I get home too if you want to go that route.
Thanks
Your method of connection is good, but I do not have a data plan. I guess it works if you have a data plan or something.
What I am doing is, I am making a voice call over the GSM network to a free dial-up number. The speeds are VERY slow, about 7-8kbps, but it does work.
Oh and if the number we dial isn't free, then we will be charged for the duration of the voice call. I know its low tech, but its free for me and it actually works.
Thanks for replying.
Sorry, I misunderstood. I used to do that too. Just making a data call to my ISP to get the internet. I will attach the drivers from my AT&T CD. The folder is labeled Vista, but I am pretty sure these are what I used and that they work with XP. I will test it when I figure out where my dumb USB cable went.
Thanks again
Thank you for the drivers jeff. After tinkering a lot with the WModem application, I believe that the HTC Kaiser cannot be used as a conventional dial up modem.
The only way to overcome this problem is to use 'Internet sharing' in Kaiser and specify a connection there itself. The only disadvantage here is, we cannot use the dial up services like NetZero that require us to use their custom dialers.
If anyone has a solution to this, please make a suggestion.
Has anyone tried the Vista 32bit driver on XP? Does it work?
Vista drivers do work
Yes, the Vista drivers work under xp. The kaiser is unrecognized as 'HTC USB modem'. However, as I pointed out earlier, the Kaiser does not behave like a conventional dial up modem. Only if you have GPRS, 3G etc. you can use this method.
I'm in the same boat. I couldn't get those drivers to load.
It's unreal that you can't find USB drivers for this phone anywhere on the Internet for XP.

i don't mean to criticize or anything, but you have a $400 phone, unlimited internet for the phone is like $20, why not just do that? or do pda unlimited for $50 and you get unlimited sms too, i just don't get shelling out a full paycheck for a phone and not the extra few bucks to optimize it

I had no problem getting these drivers to work on Vista and XP. All you need to do is launch Internet Sharing while your phone is connected to the PC, and when the driver prompt comes up, point Windows to the folder where you stored the drivers.
Under Windows XP SP3, I do not even get prompted for drivers, everything loads automatically.
XP 8925(tilt) ICS usb driver
I'm trying to get my 8925(tilt) connected for ICS on my girlfriends' parents' computer running XP sp 1 via usb.
It tries installing a 'generic IRNDS' (something like that), but doesnt work. I couldn't find a working driver, even when I extracted the vista drivers to a folder and tried setting it as the driver for the 8925 in the device manager. All to no avail.
Does anyone know where I can find the XP driver for whatever usb device it would be consider for ICS?
i've got all the tethering plan yadda yadda, I just need it to work, the phone is faster w/ 3g than thier ... !dial-up!!!
Needless to say we watch a lot of Jurrasic Park on VHS in full Dolby Stereo at that household. ha, no really, i need some help with this. please holla back.
@explorer82: go to Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections > Add a new modem connection.
Select "Cellular Line" as a modem, input the number, user, pass etc.
Than connect to your computer and activate ICS on your Tilt. This should do it.
@rubicant1982: as mentioned in the 2nd post, you need to install Activesync (free download from Microsoft) to be able to connect to Windows XP.

Tilt usb modem drivers do not work on vista business.

Hello,
I have searched thoroughly on this site and I cannot find any help. I used to have vista ultimate and I down loaded the usb modem drivers and it worked like a charm. I had to re image my pc and now I have vista business. However now when I try to load the drivers they do now show up on the device list and it does not successfully install the modem. Am I missing something? is there an updated driver? Can anyone please help or point me to where I can get some help. I really need to get back on line. Thanks XDA
I have a suggestion which might work.
Look at your device manager and see if there is anything on there thats coming up as unidentified... if there is, and with the phone connected to activesync so the PC knows the phone is there (assuming activesync is working), delete those entries one by one and when you delete one you need to click *scan for hardware changes under the *actions menu.
If you didnt start from scratch with the PC - IE format the hard drive and rebuild the system - that may mean there is a corrupt version of the driver still floating about and causing problems. This is why in the places I have worked we always backed machines up - did a full format - and then either imaged or rebuilt the box manually.
Another option is to go online to the manufacturers support site for updated drivers and install them from a location you have saved them too to your hard drive..
From my experience dealing with recalcitrant USB devices I would think that the first issue is more likely.
However there is another possibility that may be the root of the problem. I know that different versions of Vista support different connectivity options and setups - aka Vista Basic doesnt do Active Directory or Domains (im dredging this up from memory so its a little hazy). There is the remote possibility that the Business version doesnt support phones as USB modems, although I would be very surprised if that was the case.
It does strike me as a little odd that you have gone from one version of the same OS to a different version of the same OS and have had this sort of problem... but then Microsoft are known for compatibility gremlins - two words - Windows ME
Hope that helped.
I know, it is very surprising to me that now it does not work on Vista Business. You would think that it is basically the same OS but with less features. It is the 32 bit version. Its driving me crazy because I depend on it to do my work from my laptop and it just does not populate the device name when browsing and selecting the drivers. It sees the device it just does not pupulate. When I try to do the right click and install it does install it but it still does not show up under modems. If any one else has more suggestions I will greatly appreciate it.
No need to panic fello xda members and friends. It is all good now...i am typing thins theteering from my laptop through my tilt. Thanks xda you are the best. The speed trough my tilt is faster than my 2wire at home....ftw.:d

deal-up connection from PC (WinXPsp3) using TP2 as a DUN modem

I am trying to setup a deal-up connection from PC (WinXPsp3) using TP2 as a modem.
I need the DUN connection for CompuServe, which uses own software for dialling-up. So, I cannot use internet sharing option.
I have studied thread 407563 at this forum ... (UNFORTUNATELY THIS FORUM DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO POST LINKS) ...
I installed WM6_BT_DUN.cab on my TP2, but what I miss is a appropriate modem driver at my PC.
CompuServe has to detect this modem and setup required connection.
I tried to use a standard modem driver for 9600 b/s and BlueSoleil DUN modem driver, but both do not work.
I also tried to install HTC WModem driver from .... (link is not allowed)
Unfortunately my windows cannot install this driver, probably because it's .*cab part is missed.
In many posts in different forums is written, that Windows downloads a proper driver itself, as soon as TP2 is connected to PC.
Unfortunately, this does not happen in my case.
Could you pls. suggest solution ?
Thank you very much in advance.
Deal up! Really funny and cute LOL

lol.. i think he means dial up connection
Search on ppcgeeks forum using wmodem as keyword and search inside the htc titan forum. Hopefully the download link for the whole thing including xp driver is there. if you using vista, 7 you don't need any driver
Having said that, I have no success so far getting wmodem to work on sprint TP2 WM 6.5 . It was working fine on my TP1 and would probably work also on TP2 with win 6.1.

NO, it's not a stupid question, I can see where the confusion arises: DFRouter ~ Wireless
and YES, it's only USB tethering (for now)
Sounds great, need wifi tethering for WP7
does this work on other htc phones? if so why not put under generic wp7 development? Is there tethering on other wp7 device?
Doesn't works for me.
HTC Sync doesn't see my phone... And If i Go back to Zune mod the device crash !
Has Anyone Any Feedback?
Like many, Wi Fi or USB tethering is an essential functionality of the HD2. Indeed I am using a NAND Android based ROM because I need this functionality to write this reply.
I really want to toy around with WM7 (I have flashed it once and loved it but re-flashed a NAND Android ROM because of the lack of tethering in WM7) so it would good to get some independent feedback on this fix kindly provided by OP.
EDIT: Thanks G-ThGraf - just got in before my post.
My Windows Vista machine, does indeed install all the drivers... Doesnt crash either .... however as mentioned in the explanation it installs a modem, which requires a dial up no.
Unless i'm missing something can it use my 3G connection?
Ta
I have a request. Once the wifi router is made for the wp7, Will the connection be Infrastructure mode?
Great work mate,but is there a way to maka WiFi tether ? Would LOVe to connect my wifi ipad
Hardware Error
Hi,
I am getting a hardware error when trying to connect (Error 692). The Device Manager lists the modem as functional. Windows 7 Pro 64.
Any suggestions?
Regards
Did anyone confirm that this works on HD2 WP7 and if yes, in Windows XP?
Thanks!
Hello,
I've successfully installed the driver (would love to have the driver in a stand alone package), but how to configure the dial up-connection?
And does anyone know what to do to get the usd-drive-mode running?
thanks
All answer in head of thread.
Thanks for all reply.
Thanks dfvn. I just hope that there's gonna be soon some wifi tethering on WP7.
Thank you for your effort. But even i follow the instructions, i am getting the hardware error with code 692.

I get this error too (HD7 + Windows 7 64Bit)... can someone confirm that it works with 64bit windows? Perhaps thats the problem. Or can anyone confirm that it works with hd7?
Don't forget add "+cgdcont=1,IP,yourapn" in your modem advance property.

I've tried every combination (with quotes, without quotes, dial *99#***1#, dial *99#, with dataconnection disconnected and connected end so on), but nothing works.
Can anyone confirm that this works with t-mobile in germany? Or can anyone even confirm that it works with hd7?
thanks
