Has anyone tried this? I have DUN enabled on the phone, and I try dialing #777 through the Bluetooth DUN COM port on my computer. The phone dials the number, and while dialing displays “Calling 3G 1X Data” as if it were working. It then displays "Connected as data modem to <Computer's Bluetooth Name>". After 2 seconds the phone hangs up and Windows gives Error 678- The remote computer did not respond.

I’ve double-checked, and I know this is the correct number for Sprint. I’ve used it in the past with a different phone and Datapilot.

i'm going to keep pretending you're country as fuck and pretend not to realize the phone is actually called "dun"

Yeah. . . DUN = Dial up networking

have you read up on the phone yet - i've been using #777 for years now - but a lot of the new phones don't support it anymore - once sprint started moving towards "power vision" they stopped allowing a lot of phones to use it - what specific phone model do you have?

It's a LG LX350.

the first 2 links look promising - have you tried searching/reading howardforums.com/sprintusers.com?

sounds like your problem is normal and expected behavior - if you need #777 then you need a new phone

that's my point - take it elsewhere

boo fucking hoo

8/1/2006 10:53:56 AM

^^^Thanks for the link. I had searched a couple of forums, but hadn't found anything that specific. That is exactly what I'm seeing.

I don't think this could've been any clearer.

because you sure are contributing to this thread jackass-hypocrite. do you want me to dig through your posts to find when you've made jokes in legitimate threads? (and i don't even really think this was much of a joke, more just how i read the thread topic to begin with)

8/1/2006 8:00:09 PM

right - if you couldn't understand what the post was trying to say you should have clicked back to chit chat - what is your point again? you can't read?

8/1/2006 8:01:44 PM

jesus, i didn't have much of a point in the post, you guys are just overreacting. so what, i didn't know what DUN stands for. i was having a little bit of fun. the guy still got his help. what does it matter?

8/1/2006 8:05:49 PM

don't worry about it dude. omarbadu just likes to be a little bitch

8/1/2006 8:42:45 PM

little bitch?

8/1/2006 8:43:44 PM

qntmfred - when did i call you out for sucking?

8/1/2006 8:45:37 PM

qntmfred supports OSX, I believe.

8/1/2006 8:46:10 PM

you didn't have to do anything to me. i'm just saying, all you've done in tech talk lately is bitch unnecessarily. what's the deal with that

8/1/2006 8:50:45 PM

did you even read the thread - you can't be this stupid

8/1/2006 8:51:35 PM

the guy was commenting on the word dun. why you gotta give him a hard time.

[Edited on August 1, 2006 at 8:53 PM. Reason : who cares if he doesn't know what it stands for. that wasn't his point]

he put it in all caps - it was clearly dial up networking - that was a great chit chat response - nothing more

[Edited on August 1, 2006 at 8:55 PM. Reason : then why even post - just save the typing]

8/1/2006 8:54:40 PM

the occassional chit chat response isn't gonna hurt anybody

8/1/2006 8:56:30 PM

and with that logic - neither did my response - there was no need to continue tho

[Edited on August 1, 2006 at 8:57 PM. Reason : with]

8/1/2006 8:57:08 PM

well this thread got gayed up and I didnt even have to step in
