Featured Replies

  • First, make sure Bluetooth on your Q is activated by going to Start>Bluetooth>Bluetooth manager>Settings
  • In the settings make sure Bluetooth is ON, and click the Allow other Bluetooth devices to see the phone
  • -Now link your Q to your Powerbook by going to System Preferences>Bluetooth on your Mac
  • Click on the Devices tab, and then click Set Up New Device
  • Select Mobile Phone and the on screen instructions should walk you through. For now it will only list Address Book as a check item
  • You will also have to input a passcode from your Mac to the Q during this process
  • After linking the Q, go to the Bluetooth menu (main menu bar) and select Browse Device
  • Select the Q and a browse window should open
  • Download the Resco Explorer 2005 .CAB file here: Resco Explorer 2005 for Smartphone: Downloads
  • Download the Resco Registry module here: Dedicated free file hosting upload storage space - 1_Registry_s.ARM.CAB
  • Download the hacked reg file here at Howards Forums.
  • Drag the three files you just downloaded over to the Q (note, unzip the hacked registry file first)
  • On the Q, go to File Manager>My Documents
  • You should see all three files you just transferred there
  • Start by clicking on the Resco Explorer.CAB file. That should install the Explorer app
  • Next click on the Registry_s.ARM.Cab file. That should install the second part. Ignore any warnings that say these apps aren't designed for your OS
  • Next attempt to click on the q-bt-hack.reg file. It may auto add to the registry, probably not.
  • If it didn't auto add, go back to the Q’s home screen, hit start, and find and open the Resco Explorer application
  • Navigate to your My Documents using the Explorer app
  • Now click again on the q-bt-hack.reg file
  • It should now ask if you want to add this to your registry file....say yes
  • Turn the phone off and remove battery for more than 30 secs
  • Restart phone
  • Type ##342587 and then hit send
  • Change the option menu to 'enabled' and then exit.
  • Head back to System Preferences on your Mac, and go to Bluetooth again
  • Click on your Q device in the list and hit Configure
  • A new option to 'connect to internet' should now be available to check
  • Hit continue and it will ask for the settings
  • username is your cell phone number xxxxxxxxxx@vzw3g.com
  • Password is vzw
  • Number to dial is #777
  • I use the Verizon 1x EVDO modem script (PM user Bill Alexander for script if you want it)
  • Others use the stock OS X Verizon Support PC 5200 script with success
  • Leave the 'show modem in menu' box checked.
  • That should do it.
  • Go to the modem icon in the menu bar and select connect.
  • You should now be connected to the net.
