Motorola V710
V710 and Palm Tungsten T3 question
The Palm site does not mention a way to update the Palm to work with newer phones.
-DR
I just checked out Palm's site and the only thing I saw was this:
http://www.palmone.com/us/support/downloads/phonelin ... »
Check out the "note" area, about halfway down the page in the middle (from left to right)...
"Palm Tungsten T, T2 and T3 handheld users running Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP can also update these items using the Phone Link Updater application installed on their PC. This application can be found in the Communications section of the Software Essentials CD that was included with the Palm Tungsten T, T2 and T3."
Meanwhile, I just tried the Phone Link Updater incl. with my T|3, which is only aboot 60 days old, and sho'nuff, the 710 isn't ...

Search this forum on "bluetooth" and you'll see that there are quite a few issues with BT in general with the v710. The #1 reason I bought the v710 was connectivity via BT to my T3 and my pc. I've tried all the available drivers from phone link update, tried monkeying around with the init string in each scenario, with no luck.
I talked to Palm tech support earlier today. The rep indicated that palm has not received the BT drivers for the v600, let alone the v710. In another string on this forum, the feeling is that file transfers to/from pc or palm will not be possible until a software update is released for the v710. This is KILLING ...

Make sure that BT is turned on both the phone and Palm, then connect away.
My settings on Palm:
Phone Link/Phone Setup/Phone Connection/Bluetooth to Motorola
Prefs/Bluetooth/Trusted Devices/Add Device - search for device...find phone
Prefs/Phone/Connection/ 'Motorola Phone'
Prefs/Connection choose 'Motorola Phone'
Prefs/Network/Service/Dialup Connection - I'm using this for now until I get Verizon Web activated
It Does Work! Hope this helps. EC
Also, can you confirm Prefs/Network/Service/Dialup Connection? "Dialup Connection" is not an option listed under "service" in Preferences -> network.
Can you populate your phone book on the v710 using BT??
I can connect the T3 to the phone, it will dial, but then disconnects after one ring. (This is when dialing from the contacts list or the phone dialer)
Also tried web pro. The palm will connect to the phone, it dials out to my ISP, connects... and then nothing ever happens. After a long while, an error message pops up about the connection.
Anyone get past this problem, what am I doing wrong?
Even though it was level one support shipped to a call center in India, this guy sounded like he had more knowledge then past rep's I've spoken to. He knew what OBEX was (he finished my sentence with, "...that will support file transfer.") So, there's hope.
As for the Phone Tools, I cannot get the phone to accept the "dial" command from the Tungsten T3. I get a message about the phone not supporting this feature (I would give you the exact message but I'm on hold with Verizon to find out the definitive answer on the firmware u...

How do I actually use the connection between my verizon service and my T3 to browse the web and check my email and how do I make the dialer work and not hang up?
Thanks,
