Hello I am having a problem with my Dell Axim x51v and Samsung A900. I have Sprint and the Phone As Modem Package and still cant connect to the internet using bluetooth. On the phone I turned on the bluetooth and turned on visibility. Then on the Axim I turned on bluetooth and made divice discoverable then went to divices New parnership It found my phone. I Highlighted it, clicked next, it asked to select services to use from this divice the only thing listed was dialup network I left it checked, on the com ports I have (com7) checked there was that or (com8) Then I went to connections/ my ISP/ add a new modem connection, under enter a name for connection I left it (My Connection) under salect a modem I tried both Bluetooth and Hayes Compatible on COM1. For the number to dial I entered #777 under user name I put sprint I left password and domain blank then I went to internet explorer tried to connect and nothing I get a cannot connect for unknown reason. I called Sprint Tech support He said that it seemed like I was doing everything right and that it should work. Can someone please help!!! I did not Disable the phone's modem NAI Because I have the phone as modem plan do I need to do this? Also I have the latest version on the phone ZA06.

Thanks

Well today I took it to sprint and had one of the guys take a look at it. I didnt see exactly what he did but I guess he used the phone to search for the PDA and then paired them. Its working now. I can browse the internet on my PDA When I did it I used the PDA to search for the phone but never the other way around ops:

Glad to hear it works.

If you're comfortable, you might want to view but don't change the "working" settings. Write it down in case if you have to hard reset your Axim (for some other reasons) one day.

Enjoy your need toy.
