I installed the drivers from motohelper but when I enable the tethering function on my phone the motorola usb networking driver changes to motorola usb RNDIS device and it shows not working (the motorola usb modem disappears from my device list) . my network notification shows I'm connected but internet explorer doesn't find any pages. my system is dell lattitude d600 running windows xp
Just recently my pc began having a problem recognizing my Bravo as a phone. Until then everything was fine.Now when I plug my Bravo into a USB port, I hear a chime, but no window opens.When I go to My Computer, the phone is shown as Removeable Disk (X:).When I double click on it, a small window opens with this message: "Insert Disk.Please insert a disk into drive X:." Under properties, it appears as Motorola MB520 USB Device, a disk drive.After plenty of research, I have tried changing the assigned letter of the drive twice.Every other USB device I own works just fine on my PC. The only way I can access the phone on my PC is to turn off the pc, connect the phone, power on the pc, and then the phone appears as a phone. When I connect the phone to another pc, the phone appears as it should.Some research shows this problem may be related to Acronis on my pc, but another pc with Acronis on it can recognize my phone. Could this be the result of disconnecting the phone without "preparing" the disconnect?
setting up a Bravo MB520 to work correctly with Consumer Cellular Service. Which fields have to be set up to make the Data work? Is there a good guide to explain all the software in setup for instance? Or how do I get an unlock code to get the phone away from other networks?
After I updated the software, my phone will randomly restart itself. It will go to a black screen, then reboot on its own. I have tried two refurb phones from ATT and a new battery, and it still does it. I even got a new SD card, thinking that maybe it was a memory issue. Still restarting.Is there a solution (besides just buying a new phone)?
I am brand new to android. I can't get my phone to tether via USB or allow my laptop to work from it as a mobile hot spot. I can see the phone as a mobile hot spot and login but it will not let me access the internet. My laptop tells me that it can't acquire an IP address. Also, when I Use USB it doesnt let me upload the driver to use as a modem.
I've discovered a really annoying bug with the text messaging app where I'll find that it will have scrolled all the way up to the top of the thread at times which is really annoying.
I have been trying to recreate the problem and the last time it was doing it was when I came out of being locked straight to an SMS thread and it will be at the top. I could scroll all the way back down and if I angle the phone so that it switches to landscape, then back to portrait it will then go back up to the top of the thread.
Has anyone else ran into the annoying problem of ending up at the top of an SMS thread when you didn't want to?
after update on my bravo i had a lot of issues, so i did a factory reset and seems to run fairly well now. My android system is running at 100% and im not quite sure what to do?
I was trying to set up USB tethering on Windows XP because it couldn't connect to the internet for some cryptic reason (I know Windows admin so I tried everything else), but Windows needed a driver for device RNDIS... nothing obvious came up except MotoCast (which wanted to install a bunch of other stuff) so I read the instructions on the phone itself which directed me to Google's Help pages which said to download tetherxp.inf to the machine, which I did. Windows did not recognize it as a driver for RNDIS no matter what I did (I even right-clicked and installed it). It seems Moto links to useless information in this case.
Since MotoCast popped up automatically when I first plugged in (before I ticked on USB Tethering), I figured that might install it but it wants to install the whole thing and make me check an agreement etc... that seems way overboard to just get a USb tethering driver.
Right now I am going to try to find the driver on the internet or just download and install Motorola's USB driver but I have no idea if that's it. This seems way overly complicated (and inaccurate) for something that should be very simple, such as the Razr just being able to install the necessary drivers to use with Windows.
Has anyone had difficulties or successes with Bluetooth tethering their RAZR or MAXX to a Xoom or other Android tablet? I have been unable to get mine to connect with each other. They recognize each other immediately, pair without issue but just won't connect.
If you've been successful in connecting them, how have you made it happen? Any difficulties or tricks you used to get them to connect?
I use to be able to use bluetooth to access the internet over the cell network on the xoom with my old Droid X.I am also able to do this with my wife's Droid 2.On the Bionic I am not able to get it to work.Is this being blocked?I have wifi off on the xoom and Bionic like I have to do with the other phones, but I never get the bluetooth internet connection.I am connect to the Bionic via bluetooth but it never establishes the internet connection.
i have a brand new motorola bravo bought from att (android 2.2). when i make phone calls, i can see the call going out and it even shows 'active call'. but i cannot hear anything and also, the other person cant hear my voice. so, basically, no voice is going in and out during a phone call. same for incoming calls: i can see the call coming and when i accept, it shows 'active call' but no voice is going in and out.
music and Internet work fine. i can hear the phone ring when a call comes. so, fundamentally the phone's sound system works fine.....
I am at the 2.2.1 level.When I "power-up" my BRAVO from a standby state, the "contacts" or "dialer" screen appears without any request from me. When I touch the "revert" button, the screen goes black except for the notification bar.I then need to hit the HOME button to get started.Is there some parameter that controls what "starts up" on wake-up?
I changed my yahoo email password online. I keep getting an email authentification error on my Motorola Bravo now and I cannot access my email from the phone.
I recently purchased a used Bravo phone. It's an AT&T version that is unlocked and has been updated to FROYO. Although Motorola says there's no way to do it, I have read that it is possible to uninstall pre-loaded apps. I would really like to get rid of all the AT&T crapware!
My Bravo got stuck at the Motorola Screen. I tried to VOL/POW button at the same time but that leads me to no where. Every 60 seconds, the Motorola logo flashes.
After an attempt at upgrading, my Bravo now shows only a black screen with the small white bar at the top. I can receive calls, but that's it. I thought there was a discussion of this problem here, but I can't find it. Any way to get back to normal without losing home screen setup?
I keep trying to attach a jpg to a text message. I get the message that it is converting to mms, but then I get an error message saying the message was not sent.
In the past week, my battery life has gone down to about 5 hours from fully charged with little to no use. I checked my battery use and it shows that Cell Standby is at 61%. Time without a signal is indicated at 50%; even though I normally have 4 to 5 bars of 3G signal stength all the time.
I uninstalled several apps including anything I added in the last couple of weeks. No change. I did recently get an aftemarket Cellit USB car charger. Is it possible that I screwed up the battery by using this car charger?
I also checked my network settings as suggested in another thread here, and my phone was already set to "GSM Auto (PRL)"; which is supposed to give much better battery life.
Since the update, the bluetooth tether connection seems to stagnate after inactivity and will no longer be usable. I have atempted to repair, disconnect, etc. in other words I have tried everything to reconnect after the connection to my phone stops working.
