Verizon has software called Data Pro that allows you to take constant RSSI readings from the phone and map them in the software to have a visual indication of areas with/without good coverage. I know that this software will work with the original Droid, but I am having problems getting it to work with the Droid 2. Essentially the software needs to recognize the phone on a communication port when connected to my XP laptop, but I can not get the Droid 2 to show up under any of my comm ports. Anyone with experience with Data Pro know if the Droid 2 will work? Or does anyone know how to get the Droid 2 to show up under my comm ports when connected? Thanks!

After giving up with a Motorola Razr V3a, I bought an HTC Diamond; I want to have, on a call, the caller id information go to my laptop, where I have another program to listen for it, and pull up a client record in ACT! 2009. Should be simple, except it doesn't seem there's any way of getting a cellphone to behave.
So, with the HTC Diamond, how can I get it to actually look like a usb modem for Windows XP SP3? I've been scouring the 'net for the majority of a day just looking for this; is it really that hard? What am I missing? Again, I don't want to get on the internet (internet sharing), I simply want a nice COM port that will accept AT commands.
(using ##DIAG let XP have HTC USB Modem, but attempting to query the port, or use hyperterm to talk fails)
Any help very much appreciated!
Edit: OR, is there any software that communicates over the USB cable that can be notified when a call is coming in, perhaps by Microsoft's Radio Link Layer SDK?
I'm trying to find an app that works with the Samsung Epic that I can use as a mouse/keyboard for my PC.
I have already downloaded GRemote Pro and Remote Droid but I can't get either to sync with my computer.
I can not get Microsoft Activesync to recongize my phone which I think might be the reason I can not get my phone connected to my computer so the programs acknowledge each other.
ppc tablet
try ppc tablet:

it supports connectivity over wireless and bluetooth PAN, in addition to active sync. It's not freeware, but you can get a trial version to test it.
Edit: On second thought... the epic is android, right?. So my appoligies if that is the case. The above will not work for you.
same here.
I've wasted at least 6hrs of my life trying to get it to work, and the funny thing is I own like 4 wireless mice.

The Motorola USB Networking driver is loaded by default on DX,D2,D2G and Pro.
Use the same settings as for the Droid and it will work fine. No key code needed.
I can't do Wifi at work, but Bluetooth is allowed.
My phone (Motorola Droid Mini XT1030) supports Bluetooth internet sharing, no problem. Tested it and it works.
Only problem is my PC running Windows 8.1 can tether to the phone and use phone's internet, but not the reverse. No way to reverse-tether to the PC via bluetooth that I'm aware of, and I'd like to stay wireless.
Got an idea to use a cheap old phone as a bridge. Reverse tether cheap phone to PC via USB using ReverseTethering app, then use phone's Bluetooth tethering to share that with my XT1030. Well, turns out this is not possible, at least not with Android. Author of the ReverseTethering app confirmed it.
So that got me thinking, how about old Windows Mobile? Used to be you could just plug a WinMo phone into the PC, and it was automatically reverse-tethered. Can an old WinMo phone share that reverse-tethered internet connection to another phone via Bluetooth?
If not, any way to do that with iPhone or Windows Phone 8? I still have my old iPhone 4S and can probably get a WP8 phone pretty cheap.
No idea about WM, but give this a try?

Thanks, but that's for ICS and below, all my Androids are on KitKat.
My Lenovo Tab 2 (6.0 Marshmellow stock, unlocked, not rooted) refuses to work with my latest acquisition (Carlinkit Carplay dongle from Aliexpress). The wired plus wireless dongle works on any android above 4.0 and I've tested it on phones from Android 5 to 7 without a problem.
However with my Tab 2 (which I was going to install in my car as a handsfree and navigation unit paired with my phone), it simply refuses. One has to install an app called Autokit (address on vendor's page in Aliexpress) on Android device. When I connect my phone via wireless, it attempts many times and either fails and starts all over, or the screen goes blank (with phone saying it's in carplay mode), or gives warning "The navigation machine [i.e. my tablet] does not support current settings. Please disconnect your phone and enter the Settings page to enter compatible mode."
In settings page I have three "working modes"--speed, fluency and compatible. I understand them to be resolutions: full HD, HD and lesser (VGA?). I get this message on both speed and fluency. In compatible mode, I briefly see the screen loading before it hangs and disconnects.
If I attach phone with dongle with a cable, the app does not react at all and still goes on wifi and blueooth looking for a device.
However in other phones I've tested on, I've had no problem with either of the three modes, or cable phone-to-dongle connect.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to upgrade/ change settings on Lenovo Tab 2 to accept my dongle or is it a lost cause?
2. I understand the dongle has its own wifi and bluetooth, and doesn't rely on cable. Therefore, it must be some USB protocol in the tab which is causing difficulties (as dongle works fine on other phones). Is this logical?
3. If so, there ought to be a better way than disposing my trusty Tab 2 and shopping for a used tab which will accept my dongle?
Thanks.
