[Q] Using the phone as a modem - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Is there a way to use the Samsung Galaxy S III as a modem without using the USB Tethering option, but setting up a new connection through a modem in windows. If it is possible what should be the settings for the connection such as the dialing number and the modem initialization string?
Thank you.

Are you trying to use your Galaxy S 3 as a dial-up modem? just trying to clarify if this is what you are asking, I don't know if it's possible. Can I ask why you would want this?

Yes I want to use the phone as a dial-up modem. I want to connect it to a dd-wrt router as a usb device so that the router can use it as an external dial up modem to give access to the internet for a home network. (for both wired and wireless devices)

Humm I don't think it is possible my guess is your having unlimited voice and thinking that if I dial out that is all that will be used. Well your idea would need some sort of virtual dial up modem on the phone which it doesn't have. An app would need to be created just to do this also you would still need dialup ISP service. If I was you I would look into other options like NetZero 4g hotspot.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the unlimited voice. It still would work as data connection. Like for any other provider all you need is the correct number to dial (for example for T-Mobile it is #99*) and the proper access point name (for example for T-Mobile it could be internet2.voicestream.com). May be I did not state is clearly I want to use it as a 3g/4g dial-up modem, not a simple over voice dial-up modem.
Now the hotspot would not work. I need a unified connection for both wired and wireless devices. If I use a hotspot device than the wireless clients and the router would have to be connected to the hotspot network wirelessly and the wired clients would still be connected to the router which would make it two different networks. More over if the hotspot would to be removed than the whole system would have to be set up again.

It should be #777

Thanks. And what about the APN?

I don't know that, all I needed was the number username and password. Just Google the Verizon APN that should work.

Possible to use Kaiser as an Analog Modem?

Hi All,
I posted a similar question before without too much response. So bear with me as I repost it here in this forum as you guys seems most knowledgeable.
In where I live, GPRS data cost an arm and a leg. They charge you something stupid like 10 dollars for 12 megs, WITHOUT the option of purchasing an unlimited plan. What I'm trying to find out is is it possible for our Kaisers to act as an analog modem so I can tether it to my laptop and dial-up to a local ISP? Sure the speed would be terrible, but at least I'll get connectivity without incurring tons of data charges.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated

It would really suck if you're moving such as on a train or such because this kinda of data doesn't handle tower swapping.
It should be possible, depending on your phone provider. I know at&t used to allow it, but it's unavailable with any new plan now, for instance.

Hm... interesting. Technically my phone provider can "dis-allow" their customers from dialing into an ISP using a voice call, but in reality can they really prevent you from doing so? I mean from their end its just any voice call right?
But I digress. Does anyone know how I can set up something like this in WM6? I tried doing the following :
1. Create a new Connection
2. Select "Cellular Line" as my modem type
3. Enter the phone number of my ISP
4. Connect using this new connection
But it fails, saying that it got a problem establishing the connection. At first I thought it was failing to establish carrier with the ISP, but later I found out that it doesn't even dial out but changing the number to my home phone number.
Any ideas would be appreciated.. thanks!!
Actually, there is a circuit you can build, for the electronically inclined, that will connect the headphone/mic ports on the kaiser to the 2wire hole on your laptop, enabling you to use your minutes to DIAL aol or msn or whatever.

Would that be akin to using a mini usb to rj11 adapter? That would certainly be doable! However, I would imagine some drivers needs to be installed. Say, for the WM6 device to act as a modem and for windows to detect it as a modem.

I'm not sure how it's done, but my provider certainly does block it unless one is provisioned.
On my Sony Ericsson t637, I can ISP dialup on one sim that is provisioned on the monthly plan, but on the other cannot dial through. If you hand dial it, you can hear the other side's modem for fax (for example), but if you try tether dial for instance, it doesn't work. Either sim does not contain any network setup information and it's all on the same phone.

That's very interesting.... the fact that if you hand dial you hear the other side's modem but if you let WM6 dial through one of its connection setups you won't be able to connect.
This leads me to think it might be a software limitation. Any other thoughts?
I want to do this too and have the same issue of it not dialing. But if I hand-dial the number it connects (well, I hear the modem sound). Would it be possible to setup windows to work off those sounds? So instead of dialing, it will just send authentication information. Or dial without dial tone, then you hand-dial it on the cell, and route the "audio" to the modem?
It worked for me
Hi everyone
I use T-mobile in USA, I have the myFaves plan, it allows me to call 5 numbers of my choice for free. One of these numbers is a Dial-up number that I use to dial out and connect to the internet. However it takes about 20-30 attempts before I make a connection (or sometimes it connects in just 2 attempts).
The point is, I've done it and it actually works. All you need to do is go in 'Connections' and add a new connection. Select 'Cellular Line' and specify the phone number you wish to dial.
I would love to use this method of connection since its free, but the time it takes to connect is very frustrating. I came here looking for some free software that would allow the voice call to be easily recognized as a data call so that I can continue using this facility.
I called T-mobile a while back and asked as to why it was so inconsistent, the cusomer representative replied saying 'You are getting away with it, it's not supposed to happen'. He said that they needed to enable CSD for my line for it to actually work. I had the CSD inactive according to him. I argued that I used voice dialing and not CSD, he didn't agree with me.
Lets keep this thread active and search for a solution, let me know what you guys think.

That's very interesting! I have followed your steps exactly as above, however I can verify that mine doesn't actually dial out. Have you tried substituting your dialup number with your home phone number? That way you can verify at which stage the failure happens. For example, if your home phone rings, then we can conclude that you've managed to make WM6 dial out (which is further than what I've got), which most likely means it fails at the connecting stage.
That fact that I couldn't even get WM6 to dial out makes me think its a software issue more than a network limitation.
I think there's a problem with the Analogue CSD Modem on the TyTN II.
I've been trying to get mToken (http://www.choung.net/mToken/) to work as a simple VT100 async modem connection over the GSM cellular modem and have had no success. Works fine on my other WM5 device (XDA Orbit) using the same SIM card.
As another test I tried getting my ISP connection working over the dial-up Cellular Line (GSM) using start->settings->connections->connections and using then 'cellular line' option under modem selection. Again no success on the TyTN IIl. Again this works perfectly on my other XDA Orbit device.
I have a case open with HTC UK who are still investigating the analogue modem problem on this device.
There's another thread relating to this here:

I can also dial out to any analogue phone no problem using the 'cellular line' modem. The trouble is the HTC's modem is not able to establish a connection if you have an analogue data modem at the other end - it just hangs indefinitely.

Interesting... the problem of not being able to dial out seems more and more like a software problem. In particular, it looks tied to the Radio ROM since I'm on the 1.27.12.17
I'll try some other Radio's and report back the results. zoggo, if you don't mind, please tell us what version of radio are you using. Wouldn't hurt to let us know which rom you're running as well.

The topic becomes more and more interesting;
now i have an idea - to connect an old gsm phone to my linux server and configure it as a dial-in server/gateway, with free data plan between my Kaiser's SIM card and my server's one... This way i will have 500 free minutes of internet every month
The problem is...i don't know how to do it ...yet

I have just tried the 12.32 radio and I'm still not able to dial out. Just to clarify, I couldn't even get the connection to dial out.
So this means something other than the radio rom is allowing zoggo and svilendotorg's kaiser to dial out to an analog number from a connection. If you dont mind zoggo, can you tell us what ROM you're running on? I myself am running on dutty's v3 final.

Thank you all for the feedback, I was on phone with the T-mobile Customer care (level 3 data) today. According to this very knowledgeable person, it is 'supposed' to work and we are 'supposed' to connect without any problems.
This also goes with the fact that there wont be any data call charges if we use the dial-up connection. However we will be using our voice minutes, depends on your plan.
The representative explained to me that CSD was only used for incoming data calls, like fax etc. and assured me that I did not need CSD for it to work properly (he proved my point). T-mobile offers CSD option for additional fee every month. I also told him that I was able to connect many times before, but the connection was inconsistent (30 attempts etc.).
To shinji1: I used Q-Mobile 1.1 with radio ROM 1.27.12.32 and was able to dial out properly (In fact, I personally think that this is the best radio ROM for this purpose). Currently I use dutty's v3 ROM with the same radio and was able to establish a dial-up connection many times before. You better flash to these ROMs; there is no tweaking involved, just flash and try to connect.
The mToken utility looks very promising. I'll tinker with it later and let you guys know my progress. As zoggo pointed out, this indeed could be yet another HTC software problem (or even the new windows mobile problem), lets hope they solve it.
Finally, I noticed that I am able to establish a connection on some days and failing to do the same on others (no matter how many times I try). So if its not working for you, try connecting again after 2-3 days? Its just a hunch, but its an observation I made.

[Q] Why can I only use VOIP on some wifi networks?

I set up my Gizmo5 account for SIP calling yesterday on the wireless network provided by my Verizon Fivespot, and it worked fine. Now I'm on my home network (Verizon DSL), and when I try to use Gizmo5 on my Nexus S, I get the error "Account registration failed: (transaction terminated); will try later." Why does this happen on only my home network? Is there anything I can do to get Gizmo5 to work at home?
Device: Nexus S
OS: Gingerbread 2.3.1
Carrier: None (Verizon Fivespot)
It may be network related at your house. Possibly a router/firewall not allowing the traffic in/out. I doubt it but I suppose the provider could be blocking that type of traffic as well.
What can I do to fix it though? I already checked my router settings and the firewall isn't blocking anything.

It isn't only the outgoing ports that need to be open (they definitely do), but the firewall has to support NAT *correctly*. SIP requires intelligence from a firewall, opening/keeping-track of outgoing/incoming UDP ports, etc. If your router supports it, try a third-party firmware like Tomato.
I had this same problem with new ubee modem/router. It is indeed NAT, and the ubee has no option to disable it.
I ended up putting my old router on the ubee DMZ and now gizmo and sipgate work.
Anyone have suggestions on making a ubee work with voip?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

[Q] Would my theory work?

Okay, say I bought a galaxy s2 skyrocket without a plan. Then I rooted it and downloaded a wireless tether app to make my phone a wireless hotspot. I then downloaded a VoIp app like (textPlus).
What I'm wondering is will I be able to talk anywhere like a regular cell phone but without the charge? Because the VoIp app needs internet to receive/send calls and texts. And the wireless tether will provide that. So yeah, I'm just wondering if its possible to make it a phone without call/texting/data charges.
Thank you.

Well I meant to activate the wireless hotspot device in the phone. Thus allowing you to use internet anywhere and letting you use the VoIp app (textPlus) anywhere.
The wireless hotspot uses the cell service for the internet connection. So if the phone is not activated then no it won't work. You could use the voip to make calls when you have access to someones wifi or using an open connection by wardriving.

Well, as far as I know, you have to obtain connection settings from your phone carrier. Bhere is no difference between GPRS, EDGE, 3G and HSDPA, except speed! Connection setting are the same and the phone will switch automaticaly to the best connection. Google the internet for the settings for your location and your carrier.

Well, if there is no coverage.... this means that you cannot use your phone at all. The lowest transfer rate is GPRS, and it can by dialed IF you have any signal prom you phone carrier. So, if you can use you phone to make calls, you can cake a GPRS connection. I don't think if there is any phone company that allow dialup connection other that in they own network, and if they allow... well, it will cost big money.
So, I repeat: if you can make phone calls, this means that you have signal from your telephone company and you can make a dialup connection if you know the correct settings! Connection speed depends on signal and phone performance!

change the way the question is asked
Background info. I just switched to AT&T a week ago. I can only afford a 1GB data plan (retired). Before I changed to AT&T (stay with me) I had a Verizon "unlimited data plan", (would take too long to explain why I switched). Anyway, I forgot to change the settings, in the phone, to turn off the "Mobile Network" so I burned through 90% of my data plan in 1 week.
I have a crazy idea. I have unlimited "talk" on my plan. So I want to use the "talk" minutes on my plan for my Galaxy S3 to access the internet through free Dial-up", so I won't go over on my "data Plan" limit. Don't want to link to a PC.
Note to ALL Cellular providers: You guys brought the "Smartphone" to market and hyped them to get us to buy them and use them. Then you hyped "unlimited" data. Then we started using our smartphones and a lot of data. Now your networks can't support the data usage, so you started charging more and more for the data and took away the unlimited plans to limit the data usage. Shame on you!!

I don't think you'll find a way to trick AT&T... "talk" minutes use voice connection so I do not think you'll be able to make a dial-up connection using your "talk" minutes. If you're going to manage this, many phone companies will have to change their rate plans!

I need a app that will allow me to communicate to the phones that require no wifi or mobile network access. Is there any out there?
So you want it to work via Bluetooth ?
Are these phones always going to be near each other with BT turned on ?
Can it use mobile data, just not "3G" ?
What are you trying to accomplish ?

I don't know how or what you want them to "communicate". But you could definitely hook them all up to the computer through usb and they would "communicate".
Wireless communication will not be possible without some sort of transceiver. And Bluetooth may be a possible solution for file transfers. It will really depend on your capabilities and knowhow.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that this post is a prank.
How do you plan on sending a call without a network or any type of wireless signal transfer you can't use Bluetooth because that would only allow you to call people right next to you or in the same room maybe a couple rooms over your voice travels farther then a Bluetooth connection does. And connecting it to your computer to call someone does you know good without and internet connection. So your back to your voice again....its kind of impossible to do what you are trying to do.

I think that a lot, but I've seen people come up with some truly unique questions.

Thank you, This is not a prank, I am looking for something that will be able to communicate without a mobile network, I seen someone had at least a texting app that worked, but i am looking for one that you can call as well as text without the mobile network. I see now that it is unrealistic to say without wifi or mobile network.

So you want it to work via Bluetooth ?
Are these phones always going to be near each other with BT turned on ?
Can it use mobile data, just not "3G" ?
What are you trying to accomplish ?

Thank you for the response. They are not all going to be in the same area at the same time, and I am unable to use the mobile network.
Pen, paper, and a stamp?

I think the app you're looking for is KakaoTalk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kakao.talk&hl=en
It's a cross-platform (Android, iOS, BlackBerry) free texting and calling app.
Of course, you need some kind of data connection, either WiFi or 3G.
I assume you're travelling out of your country and don't want to pay roaming fees, so you would have to find a WiFi hotspot to use this app.
a app that works without a wifi
just have a try of Xender,it can transfer pictures, videos, documents even contact list to friends at a moment! one of its most important advantages is it runs without wifi. so i want to suggest it because it is very convenniet .
if you like it, please share it with your friends~

I am looking for a app that works without a wifi or a mobile 3G network. I have three different smartphones that I need to install this app on: One is a Galaxy S3, the other is a BB, and the last one is a Virgin Mobile Venture. I need a app that will allow me to communicate to the phones that require no wifi or mobile network access. Is there any out there?
