Motorola V710 Bluetooth Hack

IF YOU NEED need a hack to enable Bluetooth on the Motorola V710, you can wade through the bitchfest on Russ Beattie's blog or go directly to the hack. Don't expect me to e-mail you the files. You have to dig for them. People on Howard Forums are talking about the files in the Verizon forum at http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=485087.

If you came to this thread looking for a way to enable the V710 for OBEX (which is what you need to transfer a V710 phonebook to your car's phonebook), you're out of luck. 

You need to use your head to find the files outlined in this post. It means going to the web addresses that people linked to for certain files. We will try to consolidate the downloads on this site before the end of June 2005.

The "hack" below is more than eight months old now. It was proposed before the release of the .OR version of Verizon software. The "Superdave Hack" is the new Verizon software coupled with a 41a seem edit and what that means is you'll be able to transfer files via Bluetooth if you have Mobile Phonetools and a Bluetooth adapter on your computer. The Superdave Hack does not allow you to do Bluetooth transfers from your V710 to another BT-enabled device, something I'm able to do with my Nokia 9500 Communicator.

Here is the guts of the V710 Bluetooth Hack, with the warning "do it at your own risk." You need to ensure the phone is unplugged from the computer before commencing. This hack requires Windows XP drivers to work correctly.

What you need:

• USB to Motorola phone data cable that is compatible with the v710. This is on eBay for less than $20. The future dial cable is not good enough.
• Windows XP -PST 7.11 and the activation disabler (PST_uni_patch.exe)
• Superdave's firmware.

Here are the basics of the V710 hack, thanks to superdave, howardforms, and those hosting the requisite files:

1. Install PST 7.11. Let it install all the updates for XP.
2. Reboot.
3. Copy PST_uni_patch.exe to C:\Program Files\Motorola\PST and then run it. Make sure it was successfull with all six operations. Then click finish.
4. Turn on phone and plug it into the USB cable. Windows should detect it. Point the Driver search wizard to C:\Program Files\Motorola\PST It should now find the drivers and install the phone as Motorola USB Modem.
5. On the start menu in the Motorola PST folder, run the "Flash & Test Commands" program.
6. Windows will now redetect your phone as a USB Composite device, and begin asking for drivers. Again, point it to C:\Program Files\Motorola\PST. It should do this a few times to install all the drivers it needs.
7. In the Flash & Test program, it should show your phone in the Devices section. If not, try exiting and then opening the Flash & Test command program again.
8. If the phone is in the devices section, click browse to select the firmware from superdave. Click the flash button.
9. This process will take a few minutes, so don't mess with the phone or program. Wait until it says the flash has completed. Once it compeltes, check the "errors" section for any problems.
10. The phone will probably reboot at this point, but just power it off again. Pull out the battery for 60 seconds. Then plug it back in.
11. Your phone will shows a "No Service" message but that is not a problem. Type *228 and the dial button (green button). It should then call up your service probider through an automated activation service. Choose option 1 so it programs the phone automatically. Wait until it says it is done with the process before powering off the phone.
12. You should be done now!

Do you know if this works with the Telus network?

[Bernie Goldbach]

The UK-based Moto techies tell me that once the firmware flashes, the phone gets total functionality without inhibiting connectivity to commercial networks. This V710 hack restores the Motorola phone to its factory capabilities. It should not affect its ability to talk to Telus. A V710 with crippleware removed is like a European V710 without the crippleware. European V710s work on Telus. An Motorola V710 with its Bluetooth unblocked should be just the same.

[Frank]

I tried installing pst_uni_patch but there were errors on all six. it stated that the service pack on the computer was newer than the version i was trying to install. Is there a way to fix this?

[viking]

I flash my phone with this and now my phone booths up with the verizon wireless logo, and my internet connection does work on the phone- but I am able to transfer ringtones and stuff..

can anyone help me remove the verizon logo and get my internet back?

[Anthony]

I apologise for my stupidity, but what is PST 7.11? Who is superdave and where is his site?

[macuser]

alright, i am about to go do this on a PC.....but does anyone know if this flash with enable all the capabilities in the phone...so theoretically i can sync up contacts and calendars...and transfer files back and forth...hopefully using macs new isync program

thanks!
please email me

[theringboy]

Does this only work with Verizon? Has anyone tried this with a US Cellular phone?

[mystiekart]

Thank you for putting everything so nicely. However What I am finding is alot of instruction everywhere and no downloads. Where can I get all the downloads I need?

[Sam]

Sorry for being a retard ... but can anyone tell me (or email me at polkadotninja@gmail.com) a link to the Superdave firmware?

[Shawn S.]

can any of the re flashing be done on a mac? i just want to be able to send my own ring tones to my phone and take picture from my phone and put them on my compy, if there is an easier way than reflashing then that would be great, thanks

[t-wayne]

Just got the V710 through Verizon and was wondering if this hack will allow me to link my Bluetooth-enabled Palm Tungsten T to my phone (so I can wirelessly transfer information over and even dial my phone from my Palm)?

[Sonny]

where do i get that pst 7.11??

[Bill]

You da'man...can't wait for the consolidated links ! I'm hoping this hack will allow me to connect my Jabra BT200 to my v710? Stay tuned :-)

[NeedtoHack]

Where do you get the firmware? I see a lot of talk but no links to downloads.

Also i have the bluetooth USB Dongle, is there a way to utilize this instead of the cable?

[jcmw]

all of you who are looking for more info about hacking your V710, and looking for software to download, go to the following site. www.inetron.com

[Tigger]

I did this and it works...mostly. I am a USA verizon user. I could not gain access to the directory listed to change the exterior graphic, nor could I change the cheezy animated gif that plays at turn on. What I did do was turn on a multimedia switch in the Motorola Phone Tools software that allows me to transfer files to the phone using a moto phone cable. I have not tried a blue tooth usb dongle yet, but it is on order. The Moto Phone Tools software I bought and downloaded from Motorola. I can now transfer MP3's to the phone and use them as ring tones, as well as pictures, contacts, and calendar. Make sure you use the SD flash file and not any others.

[Bernie Goldbach]

Thanks for the updates! Most of the people Googling for this info come from Verizon accounts so your tips are welcome.

[Masterswimmer]

I performed all the steps, and seemed to work with no errors. However, I am still unable to access the 'unlocked' features of Bluetooth and MPT. Are there additional steps for the Bluetooth piece? Do I need to have a flash card to use the Multimedia functions for MPT?

[Tigger]

Update! I received my El Cheapo Blue Tooth dongle and it works like a charm, no more cable! It also allows ease of use for an internet connection, nice when I have a laptop and no WiFi to access. Remember people to manually select the V710m driver when using Moto Phone tools, or it won't work.

-Tig

[Masterswimmer]

(Tigger, thanks for the help.) Hey, although I can now download files to my 710, I cannot view the files existing on the 710 via MPT. I get some kind of object error. Anyone else seeing this? workarounds? THX

[Josh F]

So I did this flash with the superdave 1.2 update and there is now no itap (predictive txt) that kinda sucks. Anyone know if there is a more recent firmware that does have it?

jf

[Michael D]

The links to the files seem to all be down for the count. Does anyone have the PST 7.11 and other files necessary to restore Factory settings and re-enable the bluetooth settings, remove the disabled materials? Your help is greatly appreciated.

[behruz]

I NEED A BLUETOOTH HACKING SOFTWARE.
PLEAS SEND IT TO MY EMAIL.
THANK YOU.

[Fred T]

Trying to view links and get mesage that I am not authorized?

[IrishEyes Editor]

I think when you try to view links and you get an "unauthorized" message, you're being blocked by a local area network. I haven't see that happen when maneuvering around Typepad.

[Bad-Rad-Dad]

I agree - where in the heck is the firmware? I can't find it anywhere.

[Split]

Can anyone email the software needed to hack this V710?

[KittyLoup]

Looking for PST 7.11. I've got an E815. Anyone know where I can find it? Can someone email it to me?

[Crazykaka]

This does work on a Telus phone. Everything works fine and it enabled the GPS locator function.

The downside is that my external screen now displays Verizon Wireless rather than Telus, and there's no more photo on the outer screen. I'm looking for a way to change the outer screen. we'll see

[ANgel]

I've tried all the softwares and am able to conect via a usb cable. I can read the SEEM data ok, but am unable to change any of the SEEM data.

p.s I got the PST 7.+ through Limewire.

[William]

I've updated the software on the phone and connected it to MPT but still cannot upload ringtones to the phone. Is there anything i need to setup in the MPT.

[Sonaj]

HI
where can I find or download the pst 7.11 program.
Can I unlock my sibsidy code with this software.

[Master Y]

Hey all,
I've read thru MANY sites describing how to unlock the v710 bluetooth capabilities and all reference the SuperDavex files, however NO links I have found lead to anything. Has it been disabled? If you know if its still available or if anyone can email it to me, I'd REEEEEALLY appreciate it. Thank you!

[Screamer89]

I am trying to unlock the file transfer function on my Verizon Motorola Razr V3m and need the Product Support Tools software (PST) Could someone hook me up and email it to me or a place to find it? Thanks!

marinepianodude@yahoo.com

[Bernie Goldbach]

We need to get the Product Support Tools software set and I have requested them from the Motorola-Ireland PR team.

[Neha]

Hello,

I got 2 CDs with Motorokr e6. One of the CDs contains the Phone Tools software which would allow me to transfer softwares and themes into the phone.

However, the software CD/software itself is corrupt and the installatio process stops in between.

Can some one please send me the Motorola MotoRokr E6 phone tools software ??

My email address - neha_20m@rediffmail.com

Thanks in advance
