I had my Mogul working with My N800 using PDANet. Then I flashed 4.2007.38-2 and I haven't been able to get it working again.

I'm not sure if its something I'm doing wrong or if the upgrade broke the tether.

For anyone who cares... I have spent days researching ways to get the N800 to work with my Centro. I have finally done it and it is much easier than I thought.

I have Sprint SERO with Unlimited Data
Palm Centro
Nokia N800

1. Install USB Modem
2. From the USB Modem Menu disable Built in DUN on the Centro
3. Phone will do a Soft Boot
4. Start USB Modem again and set it to Bluetooth mode then Enable Modem.
5. Pair the Nokia with the Centro as a trusted device
6. Go through the Cell Provider Setup wizard for Sprint.
7. Go to the Control Panel and select connectivity
8. Edit your Sprint connection.
9. Set it to dial #777 Username and Password fields leave Blank

Your done ... enjoy... Hope this helps some other users.

Luckily, it took me only ONE day of research.

Why?: when I started researching, bboilard's post was not in this thread. I stop researching after bboilard's posted.

The instructions are brilliant!

I'm coming in somewhat late to the thread, but wanted to mention that the N800 will work with a Sprint HTC Touch... so long as you're using PDA Net. (As most people are aware, all Windows Mobile 6 devices from Sprint have the Bluetooth DUN profile removed in their stock configuration -- hence the need for PDA Net.)

I guess my n800 is working with my Sprint PPC 6700 with PDA Net), but i don't know why or how. It is paired Ok and PDANet shows BT DUN as ready. When I run the phone connection wizard it does not show Sprint as a carrier. It shows AT&T, AllTel, etc, etc. but no recognizable CDMA cellphone carriers. I picked CDW Data (whoever that is) and it works, but I don't know why. I can't get DSL Reports to work (either mobile phone of Java). One CNet broadband speed report showed only 111k which really s*cks.

How come the list doesn't include Sprint?

I tried this procedure... and connect. However when I go to the web browser it just sits there loading... and loading... and then I get a network error. I know that the Sprint network is working because on my centro I can get on the web no problem. Any clarification on these instructions? setting that might be missing?

Thanks for any help.

Sprint first to offer EV-DO Rev. A-Capable Handset

Sprint said Monday it was releasing a software update for the Mogul phone, made by HTC Corp. of Taiwan, that will enable the phone to connect at Rev. A speeds. Downloads speeds should be 600 kilobits per second to 1,400 kbps, up from a range of 400 kbps to 700 kbps with Rev. 0. It will be capable of uploads of 350 to 500 kbps, up from 50 kbps to 70 kbps.

from what I'm reading it sounds like the centro does not have Rev. A capability
