Just to help a few people out with the cables. Instead of the $25 from rat shack, a great place to do business with and good prices: http://www.eforcity.com Use them or not, just thought I'd throw options out.

Okay I am a little confused I got one of the cables for radio shack for my Motorola and then went to the link on the first post and downloaded the drivers for my Motorola and unzipped them when I plugged in the cable it went to the found new hard were thing but after it started to install the drivers it stopped and said I have to put in some cd. Did I do some thing wrong do I need to down load some other software?

What operating system are you running???What disk did it ask for????My Intermec 6640 which is running Win98 1st Edition asks for a disk when installing alot of hardware.I dont have the disk for it so I have to wait until I get a copy of it to install wireless network card so I can use it in the house without using a network cable.

There is a possibility that the person that installed your Win98 1st Edition copied the CAB files to your hard drive. In which case you would not need the CD. Usually whaen the CABs are on the hard drive, they are located in the C:\Win98 folder, but it could differ depending on what the person that installed Windows on that machine did.

If you are able to borrow a Windows 98 CD, all you have to do is copy the Win98 Folder to your hard drive from the cd. That should solve your needs to put the cd in when you are installing hardware.

Hope this helps.

Peace,

Ok, well i got a self charging cable from Ebay for my phone
samsung a310, it installed fine and i was able to make a connection using the qnc/qnc username combo however when i tried to use the national access one it kept saying invalid username/password.
Any ideas as to why?
I used my phone#@vzw3g.com and vzw the password. w/ no luck. Im going to check out cellphonehacks to see if i have any luck.

You might not have data services turned on. Call vzw CS and ask them. It should work, don't use QNC, thats worthless. Use the phone number and vzw one.

Also, make sure you have an Americas Choice plan. VZW does not enable (AFAIK) the Express Network on local plans.

Good luck!

Appearently while the a310 is 1x compatabile, it is not moble office compatable meaning that while i can hook it up and dial up qnc i wont be able to access the en network.

According to this (http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=127), your phone should work on Express Network. Poke around @ http://www.cellphonehacks.com, (Beware, people @ that forum are not as nice as people here) Good Luck

After looking into it, I've come to the conclusion that none of this would work on a mac. Am I correct in this? I guess the drivers just don't exist.

Tred · 01-22-2005, 10:20 PM

has anyone had luck using the VX4400? im having trouble connecting to the phone with both drivers.

mrmontebuilder · 01-26-2005, 10:55 PM

Just to make everyone aware I had loads of trouble making this work with my Kyocera 2325 on Verizon and CS swore up and down National Network is enabled on your phone-BIG FAT LIE!!!!!the phone had the internet capability crippled so it would not connect and it drove me nuts, I downloaded the Kyocera software called "Wireless Phone Support Toolkit"from somebody on Howard forums-sorry I cant remember who-anymore I need my license to know MY name LOL-but this enabled me to play with all the settings on it and make it work.I will get my cable out of the truck tomorrow and hook the phone to my home PC and list exactly what was disabled on my phone and myabe it will help a few people out.

LOL, Verizon is known for crippling their phones so that users can't customize them without being F*&$ed with download prices (Ringtones, Wallpaper, Games, etc...), which is one of the reasons why they are getting sued. Read on:

Anyways, good luck with enabling your phone to do something it was supposed to be able to do BEFORE Kyocera sent it to Verizon.

I am using a VX4400 and it works for the most part. I am using the drivers on teh Futuredial website.

But I am having an annoying problem. The phone will only stay connected for a small amount of time then it disconnects and says DORMANT on the phone. It is kind of annoying and also the connection comes to a screeching halt but still says its connected. If anyone knows what the problem is I would REALLY appeciate your expertise.

hey guys from searching around there are a lot of different USB cables, how do you know which ones are compatible to connect with?
I have the LG VX 6000 and there are several choices, which one is correct, or has been proven by someone that it works properly?

These are all the ebay choices and some charge and do other things. http://search.ebay.com/lg-6000-usb_W...trypageZsearch

And here is the one suggested by someone http://www.cellphoneshop.net/usbdacaforlg.html

Which cable do you use BigToach ?
