where <area/number> is your cell number e.g. 8005551212@vzw3g.com

You will be charged data rates.

I read somewhere that the phone number should be #777. It doesn't seem to work with the above settings? Can anyone advise what I should put in the phone number field in Internet Connect bluetooth settings? Thanks

Go through the BT setup process, and accept the defaults. Change nothing. It will dial #777 with no account name and no password. That works.

If you wanna hack the E815

This is my website to do so.

It is all free, but try not to be too much of a freeloader, even a dollar helps.

I just got my e815 via fedex. i would like to add that mine is an alltel phone. i would like to connect mine to my pc so i can do all that is posable. i have a cable to connect to the pc, but no program. can i dl it some where, or do i need to go out and buy it at the store?

Just got a Motorola W510, and I wonder if a similar trick would work with this phone. I imagine that some of the specifications will be different.

Any hint?

Trying around, I found a partial solution modifying the mentioned plist file (with Pref Setter). My contacts are transferred correctly to the phone. The calender doesn't sync. iSync shows an error message informing that a series of events couldn't be synchronised (all existing). It's indifferent if all day or specifying hours.

But, at least my contacts arrived at the phone. Here are the values I introduced in the plist file:

/Applications/iSync.app/Contents/PlugIns/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/PlugIns/PhoneModelsSync.phoneplugin/Contents/Resources/MetaClasses.plist"

Anyone with W510 except me? Anyone?? :)

Hello. I just got Motorola W510, and I feel like I'm one of like three users of that phone and Mac OSX in the world. This post was the ONLY relevant finding at google for keywords "isync motorola W510". There are iSync plugins for a lot of other phone models, Nokia even creates them for their own phone models, but NOTHING on W510.

I've tried everything I could to make it work (got an Address Book full with contacts from my previous phone), but I just couldn't succeed. iSync will always say, that the phone is not supported, when I try to add it.

I used Klauss' code, downloaded Pref Setter, tried to import the code, even tried to repair the xml in Dreamweaver, by comparing it to other Motorola's, but still couldn't get it right.

Klauss, can You PLEASE try to help me? Or if anyone else has found a way to copy the Address Book from their Mac to Motorola W510, would You please let me know how you did it? Thank You.

Have a great day! :)

Hello, NN84. I am sorry that I havn't had a look here since quite a lot of time. Found your message looking for news about the W510 with google.

For me it still works with the values I appointed above. Contacts sync fine, calender does not. I introduced them duplicating a similar setting for an other Motorola Phone and changing the different values.

It happens quite frequently that iSync doesn't see the phone at the first try. Just stay in iSync, disconnect the phone, connect it again, and it should work. Maybe it's better to connect the phone after starting iSync.
