Is the Direct Connect on this phone the same as the Direct Connect on the iden phones?

i believe ican unlock texting out feature for boost the new i686 brutes did the same thing and i obtained software to unlock the brutes to text out and it only takes a minute to do contact me if you like to have it done i will do for free just to see if it works my name is Jerry my direct connect is 165*507524*6 if you have this phone i know you can direct connect me and my software comes directly from iden so i really believe it will work i have been unlocking the i686 brutes for over a year now and once unlocked its permanent if you stuck even a nextel sim in that phone it wouldn't text out till you married the phone to the imei and boost says it is not there phone and wouldn't do it for anyone so if anyone out there has boost sims and wants an unlocked texting out brute i686 i have brand new phones or send me your phones and i will unlock them just direct connect me and i will do it .I do live in Md so if you want to bring me your phone you can do that also or i can meet within reason and do it on my laptop.Jerry

You can hook that phone to the computer, but there's nothing at all to do with it. That phone is so basic there isn't anything a computer can do for it.

If you want to use it as a modem from IDEN network. You need to get the IDEN modem drivers from Motorola then have your computer dial S=#777 That's the boost mobile, iden server number to dial too

Any phone that runs off the IDEN network will ONLY work on the iden network. It's physically impossible to use it on any other service.

Iden is such a weak signal that's only like 800mhz. There's no way ever to use it on anything other...

Technically the I335 was only designed for professional use which is why it has push to talk and 'rugged' design.

Integrated Digital Enhanced Network (iDEN) is a wireless technology that was developed in 1994 by Motorola. An iDEN handset can function as a cellular phone, radio, pager, fax, speaker phone, and mobile Internet browser. iDEN handsets can store data from an office, or they can be used to download data from the user's computer.

One attractive feature of the iDEN unit is the fact that it can be programmed to respond to one's voice. Units with iDEN support can also function as Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, enabling users to navigate efficiently. Some features, however, do not work with all providers. In addition, as with ordinary mobile phones, not all areas have the same features. On the other hand, phone, radio, and fax services function in all areas.

Since the carrier provides most of the functionality on standard mobile phones, users might strain customer service in this regard. This is true despite the fact that iDEN phones get most of their secondary functionality from the model, not from a carrier unit.

It's impossible to use Tmobile on an iden phone. Iden and GSM based signals are 2 totally separate signals.

Iden is it's own private network that only iden phones can work on. Their not cross compatible at all.

You can't. Iden phones are only compatible with the iden network. They aren't gsm based phones. Iden is a totally separate network all by it's self.

So it's physically impossible to use an iden phone on a gsm signal

Hi,

PRO 700 DOES NOT USE SIM CARDS! instead like the other sprint phones it uses the ESN/MEID number on the back. Just call sprint and tell them you want to do an ESN SWAP or SWITCH TO A NEW PHONE and they will ask you for the number under the battery. They will also walk you through activating everything including Direct Connect. It is as fast as Nextel traditional Direct Connect but it has a MUCH LARGER COVERAGE AREA FOR VOICE AND DIRECT CONNECT. Soon these phones will take control and the whole IDEN network Nextel uses will be converted to CDMA (sprints High Speed Network).

You can get your unlock code for your 8310 from http://blackberrymep.com , it's the best -fast, cheap and 100% accepted codes.

I think i may have had a similar problem getting error around the lines of "Unable to access application data". What worked for me was, restarting my computer and opening the IDEN loader program on my computer first, then i plugged the cable into my phone this seemed to stop the error. i also had to make sure the USB connection was set to Application Access
