The reason for this is I want to be able to have Direct Connect but my BB Curve 8330 from boost doesnt have that feature.

I called Sprint and they said they no longer support phone as modem but I luckily spoke to a tech that told me it is possibly and told me to ask around about how to get it to work.

View 12 Replies View Relatedafter arguing with sprint for hours and trying to "legally" get PAM added to my account with no avail, i got tired of arguing and hung up and decided to see if i could get around it on a BB while still having a decent plan.well you can.
These instructions are at your own risk, and while i was able to do it to both a curve and a pearl, and im assuming since all BB's are about the same it should work on the tour and 8830, it's at your own risk.
I am not posting this from my normal username, as it's a little risky for me to do so so please know that i've had plenty of posts on here and been around since '04 Ok so here goes.Step 1: Install QPST 2.7 build 215 (this is very important, no other one will work, find it yourself )
Step 2: Obtain your MSL/SPC from Sprint (if you dont already have it)Step 3: Get your PowerVision Username (if you dont know it, you can do ##xxxxxx and press call from the homescreen x=msl/spc, it's the [URL] in the list)Step 4: Start BBDM and QPST Configuration at the same time, then once you add the port to QPST, selct "Service Programming" from the drop down menu.
Step 5: Select your phone in the list, dont worry it will act like it doesnt know the chipset model, select SURF6300 BB from the list and say OK
Step 6: go to the MIP tab Step 7: Create a new MIP profile that looks just like this (except in the NAI and Tethered NAI, you'll enter your PV username) -- once you're done you will have two profiles, the first one im assuming is for provisioning and i wouldnt mess with it.
Step 8: click "OK" then "write to phone", it will give an error about the model changing on com X, do you want to close the connection?, say NO it will write anyway, then you will get another error about the phone not responding.. that's because it rebooted.Step 9: once the phone reboots, create a manual DUN connection (i assume if you're on here and understand how to use PST you can make a DUN connection ) with the connection as follows:
Phone number: #777 Username/password fields are blank..

View 2 Replies View Relatedi need use my curve 8520 as a modem for my PC. My provider (FREE) told me that they was no problem to do it, but it doesn't run anymay. I've downloaded DESTOP MANAGER end when i'm using "Internet connection", the program always answer that there is a connection trouble with the modem, it is busy. When i'm asking parameters in control panelmodem, the phone answers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just received the 8530 from work and installed the desktop Manager software on my laptop. Whenever I try and connect as a modem I recieve an error the remote computer did not repsond. I have looked around on different forums and could not get a definitate answer as to whether or not this phone is capable of this. In the manual it states that in DUN Profile I can use the phone as a modem using a bluetooth enabled PC but no instructions on how to do this were there. I stumbled on 3rd party software "tether". I installed it and it actually worked. So obviously the phone is capable of being used as a modem, but why not using the desktop manager software. Does anyone have a clue?

For some reason many of the apps don't transfer and I cannot transfer the contacts - Using the backup I tried to restore the address book from the 8330 to the 8310 bu is showing this as read only - I am assuming this has do to with the fact the the sprint system is not GSm and does not store the contacts on the SIM card (no card exists).

I have:
BlackBerry Curve 8520
Windows 7
AT&T
I recently acquired a curve 8900 (Tmobile) through work. I currently have an LG Lotus from Sprint, with all of my contacts in it. It's in the neighborhood of 500 or so, so I obviously don't want to transfer them by hand individually. What is my best bet to get them from my lotus to my new blackberry? I normally have it done at the store, but I didn't know if they would be cooperative in doing that since it's two different carriers.

Sprint said it couldn't be done. One of them are lying to me, but I don't know which one. It shouldn't be a big deal. It should be just changing the software. What should I do?
