Motorola V710
ipaq - v710 hook up? can it be done???
i met some guy at the mall (in passing) who was using an ipaq with his v710 so I had to ask him "how it works". Well the guy didn't want to say much except that he bought "the last real ipaq from best buy....you can no longer get them....blah blah" but i noticed he was surfing the web with his ipaq.
this is something i would like to do as i am looking into PPCs but i have heard various rumors stating that you must purchase a data plan to be able to surf!? I don't get this. Is VZW looking to see what data transfers are happening on your acct?
Please clarify as I'll probably hit the local "terrible" Best Buy to see what IPAQ's they carry. According to various people on the web they do not carry any IPAQ's anymore (ones with windo...

nope, giftcard not allowed online --sucks! but it says they are sold out of both models of the ipaq anyway.
i just called three stores in my area and all of them either said, "What's an ipick????" 🙄 or "we no longer carry those pocket pcs things" ?????? 😳
uh, Best Buy no longer carries Pocket PC's??? great. maybe i woke the sales guy & girls up. They obviously did not want to check for me as they all of them said, "Can't you just come in and look for yourself".
damn best buy!

correction one of the best buy stores just called me back (wow!!!) and he said the only one they carry is the RZ1715 and he actually told me not to get it as it is the biggest flop product HP has ever put out. He told me he has sold quite a few only to have everyone of them returned! He says its a waste of money. He told me he had an "open box" 2215 but said that he wouldn't suggest me buying it as its been abused to hell. Uh ok...
So looks like i'm out of luck. Called CompUSA and again they do not carry IPAQ's. The girl said to try their website... ugh, i take it Pocket PC's are not the thing to buy huh...

Most people I know who have become proficient at both Pocket PCs and Palms prefer the PPCs... And now I sit back and wait for the flaming to start... 😁
I would suggest looking online for a, Ipaq 4150 -- It's a REALLY popular one (I have almost no complaints abount mine). I agree about the 1715; it's the first of a whole new line of PPC's from HP -- It's bottom of the line, and isn't worth it.
Check out Dell... I know a lot of people who have those, and really like them.
In any event, you can do...

maybe i can purchase the abused display model for a huge discounted price... but i'd be afraid the thing is broken... do you think it would be wise just to buy the display model and just try it out for 30days and then return it and buy a brand new one form somewhere else? i just want to see if this is a tool that i can REALLY use and have fun with. My main goal is to surf the web, check email, MP3's, watch vids. what do you think?

Don't do it... You want to buy one new and undamaged. Do you know ANYONE that has one?
As far as email goes, it's great! I don't like to surf too much on non-WAP sites, as it's not too speedy (I'm used broadband). I use it all the time when I'm on air...

I don't know anyone that has one... oh well. i guess i'm looking for an excuse to use my BB Gift Card as I wouldn't have to pay for it. I don't understand why BB did away with pocket PC's - well they are promoting that piece of junk 1715.
how do you pair the ipaq to the v710? once you do how do you get online? What's the procedure? And also does VZW try to charge for data transfers or are you just using minutes... thanks for your help it is greatly appreciated!

Here's a link to how I connect (It's pretty basic):

As far as getting on line, I started by using the built-in internet explorer. It works well, but I started using Netfront, which I found works a little better.
I use the built-in Email program for emails.
The connection just uses minutes; no extra.

THANK U! i actually found a store about 45mins away from me [circuit city] that has ONE IPAQ 4155 for $450 - that is a bit over my budget but i will go check it out. Too bad i can't use the damn BB gift card! 👿 i don't know... i'll let you guys know! thanks for the help!

You can get them for less than $390 if you look on pricegrabber...

i guess i feel funny 🤭 returning it and having it credited to my brother and then asking him for the cash back. well i guess i shouldn't... i don't know.... i'll figure it out.
Circuit City has the 4155 for $400 and that's not much of a deal. but i'll go check it out. BB has the display abused 2215 model for sale for $180 but it doesn't come with a box and manual. I guess that is too much of a gamble...

The 4155 for $400 isn't bad -- I thought you said it was $450. I'd take a 4155 over a 2215 any day. The 2215 is larger and doesn't have WI-FI built in. I guess there's a bit of trade-off, as the 4155 doesn't have a CF slot (only an SD slot).. So you can always buy a CF WI-FI card for the 2215... It's just not as easy a solution.
...
on the webpage for circuit city says $450 but when i called the kid told me $400 - how much you want to bet they don't even have it in stock 😡
i'm going in a few to check it out. i guess maybe i can use the old evil credit card 😈 to finance it for now... got to make someone richer!
i can't wait to sync up my v710 to an IPAQ.

Don't forget -- You CAN'T synch those two -- You can only us ethe phone as a modem and use the PDA contacts to dial the phone.

ok... just to make sure my main goal with the IPAQ 2215 or 4155 is to be able to surf the internet like i can at work or at home. Other goals would be to use it as an MP3 player to listen to my fave tunes. Watching vids would be a plus but not needed.
Again main function would be to surf the 'net and be able to access my personal email. I would use the other tools to some extent but not as much.
I guess I am sick of Mobile Web as I find it annoying that you can not view HTML. Seems like a waste.
When using the v710 to connect to the 'net do you ever experience any "drop outs" where you have to re-sign in, etc..? How is the speed (using regular mins vs. express network).
Thanks again!

Just to clarify - when getting online you are not using VZW national access plans 1x. This 90kbps is from just using the standard
so is there anything wrong with using VZW network to connect to the 'net? why were people saying that VZW would not tolerate it?

No, from what I understand I am using the National Access Plan -- Minutes of use billing.
As far as what everyone else says, I am not sure...

I just bought the 710 myself and have an Ipaq 2215. I was able to pair up the two, but it seems that when I log onto the ISP, I receive a message stating that the account or password information is incorrect. When I check back on the Ipaq, it seems that the password has been erased even though it was saved before. Do you have any idea why this would happen?

I have been able to get my Dell pocket pc to connect, but only as a modem, I can not swap data. As a modem, it is slow slow slow. The best use I have had is looking up a phone number or something like. Still, it's nice to have it when you travel, but I don't think I would call it surfing the net anymore than saying that a french fry is a vegetable

Actually, I was trying to dial my ISP with the phone so I used the ISP username and my password.
I am guessing from what you are saying that I can't use the standard service to dial into my ISP and get e-mail. I am not sure why this would not work, but...
If you have any idea, please let me know.

now i am confused. all i have is the America Choice 500 plan. Do I need to purchase another plan to be able to get online with the IPAQ????? If it is extreamly slow using the standard America Choice plan then for me it would not be worth it. Please clarify, thanks!
Of course when I went to Circuit City they did not have the 4155 in stock (it is $400). They only had a 2215 DISPLAY model for sale for $300. Did not come with anything! So they told me to drive an hour to the store that had 2 in stock but i decided to hold off as I am still unclear on some points regarding this issue. Thanks for your help guys!

I wish I could tell you. I can't log on at all using the Ipaq 2215. It should work the same as the 4155, but everytime I try to log onto my ISP, I get a message stating that the user name or password is incorrect. When I check the settings on the Ipaq, I find out that the password is no longer entered (even though it was saved there).

What do you mean by "my isp"? -- Aren't you simply using Verizon for the isp?
What name and password are you using?
Have you contacted VZW data support?

Actually, I am trying to use the phone simply as a modem. I don't have the data plan. I am trying to connect to a dial-up ISP (so I am using the name and password for the dial-up ISP and don't have one from VZW).
I have seen various threads in different places saying that people were able to connect directly to other ISP's, but I can't seem to do it.

No no no no no no no -- Don't try to connect to your dial-up (or any other) ISP -- Use your v710 and Verizon as your isp when you are connecting.

I'm glad it worked for you. Have you tried dialing the phone from your contact list? -- just tap and hold a contact, and select "Dial via Bluetooth".
None of the store folks receive Data training; they all have the data tech support phone number handy, though.

No, I haven't tried it. I will.
By the way, are the minutes charged as part of your package (ie 1200 minutes per month) or separately as an additional billed item.

Each data session shows up as a phone call. I believe that it says "data" on the call line in the bill.
They are simply treated as part of your monthly minutes package.

**npitlor** off topic here but seeing you are very knowledgeable about IPAQ's
what is the major difference between the
4155 vs 2215 ??
It seems both models are being phased out / discountinued. But prices vary strangely. Such as I've seen the 2215 for $400 and the 4155 for $400. Or 2215 for $380 and the 4155 for $450!?

From the Verizon site it looks like you need to have the National Access plan (voice+data) - 400mins for $55/mo to do what you say. It doesn't look the National Americas Choice plans include data service - 400mins for $40/mo. Can folks confirm which plan they have? I don't think this service is worth another $15/mo - I could get a dial up ISP for less than that.

To check the partnership, turn on Bluetooth on the PDA. When you're looking at the home screen (all running programs minimized), you'll see the Bluetooth icon in the lower right.
Tap that icon, and select "Bluetooth Manager".
Do you see "Motorola Phone" listed? if not, go through the steps to add the phone as a device.
To make sure your extra dial string is empty,
go to start/settings/connections tab/connections/manage existing connections
you should see "verizon Wireless" (or whatever you named it) listed. make sure it's selected, and tap "edit"
Next/next/advanced
Check the extra dial-string box -- make sure it's empty.
Don't worry -- We'll get you connected!

Here is what happens when I click on the "x" to the left of the speaker:
PDA says dailing #777 and v710 makes sound. Nothing happens on v710 end. Then another sound. Still nothing happens on v710 end. Then error msg on PDA stating unable to connect....blah blah.

When you type in your password, the PDA changes it to asteriks (and more of them than digits in your password). That's normal.
What user name are you using?
If your v710 is making a noise (should be two tones -- a lower then higher set), your PDA and phone are talking. Before you start to try to dial, open up your phone, and watch what happens. Does the phone say dialing?

User name is "mycell#@vzw3g.com"
Yes tones are as you described. Nothing happens on phone.
When I intially tried it the phone said "dailing" and then connected at 14.? kbps but it hung up after 4 seconds. But i noticed at that time it was dailing "9#777" so I re-did everything.
Oh boy, i hope this works out, haha, i appreciate your time npitlor!

somethng else changed when you re-did it, because the phone should say "dialing" when you do it.
what did you redo?
Did you change the dialing rules? What is you baud rate set at? (under the "advanced" section of the setup procedure).

i remember i did change something in the dailing patterns. everything in there says "g"

maybe i should do a reset on the ipaq?

You could try a reset... try the soft one before you do a hard one.
You could also set up another dialing procedure.
Let's call this quites for the night. I"ll be in the office from about 9 to 10 EDT, I can respond then, and then again from about 2 to 4:40.
If you don't mind, drop me a line (click on my name; you'll be able to send me an email)...
I hate to bother everyone else with this process...

Are you willing to step in to help Motocrazy8, too? I think you two have the same PDA.
There is one wslam dunk way to do it -- you do a backup of your settings (you can do this without your user data), and have Motocrazy8 restore that file to his PDA.
...
any help would be appreciated. I will email you directly for further "troubleshooting" npitlor. But if Buzz could step in maybe that will be easier??
I bet its something to do with me changing the settings. I know at first I deleted every "g" but when re-reading the directions I was supposed to delete everything BUT THE G correct? Also i changed the area code to my location and then just put it back the way it was.
So i did a lot of tweaking, maybe I messed up the settings someway. I think a reset and a start from scratch might prove useful. Since my Ipaq 2215 is brand new, there is nothing saved on it so ...
Thanks again!

When the Internet Explorer is open, tap tools then options. You will find what you need there.
I would also suggest tapping "view" and unchecking "show images" -- It will make things run faster when you don;t need to see graphics.
also try this program:

I found that it makes surfing go a bit faster, too -- and will allow you to load most pages with java.

Yes, you can eliminate mobile web 2.0.
You don't even need that if you want to use the phone's browser(!)

now i am confused. all i have is the America Choice 500 plan. Do I need to purchase another plan to be able to get online with the IPAQ????? If it is extreamly slow using the standard America Choice plan then for me it would not be worth it. Please clarify, thanks!
Of course when I went to Circuit City they did not have the 4155 in stock (it is $400). They only had a 2215 DISPLAY model for sale for $300. Did not come with anything! So they told me to drive an hour to the store that had 2 in stock but i decided to hold off as I am still unclear on some points regarding this issue. Thanks for your help guys!

i guess i feel funny 🤭 returning it and having it credited to my brother and then asking him for the cash back. well i guess i shouldn't... i don't know.... i'll figure it out.
Moto, call them and ask if it has to be credited to your brother's card. I'm not sure it does, since it is supposed to be a gift. There is no reason that you should have to use the cash at Best Buy. My daughter has returned several gift cards at different locations. They're never really happy, but you should have the right. Say you received a book as a gift and you already have it, do you have to keep it, just because it was bought with a credit card? Try it, what can it hurt? And I won't even tell your b...
