Hello all,

i have been searching EVERYWHERE [verizonwireless.com,google as well as here].
Im having a problem with my data connection. It just doesnt work.
These are my settings
Name: Data Network Connect
Select a modem:Cellular Line
Number to be dialed:#777
User name: My phone number type like this 5555555555
password: BLANK
Domain: BLANK
_____

Those are my settings, and my phone [Verizon XV6700 with WM6.1] will not connect stating the settings are not correct, username/password error.

So when I go for example onto internet explorer, it will not go anywhere..

someone help me out please, this is extremely frustrating and i know im doing something extremely STUPID!

-THANKS!!

Try leaving everything blank, even the username.

nope..the only thing i kept was the #777..
when going to internet explorer,still did not work
phone states:
Cannot Connect
Dialed:#777
Your username and password is wrong. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings. If the problem continues, turn device off and try again.

Turned phone off soft reset, and still could not connect, stated same issue as above!

ERRR!!

Hmmm... that's weird. Funny thing is, that happened to me a week or two ago, but that's just because Verizon finally shut me off because of my past due bill.

Anyways, have you recently changed anything on your plan? When I switched to a family plan that happened and the rep I spoke with had to reprovision my phone in order to get it working properly again.

Well, I would give it till morning, and if it still doesn't work maybe you should call up Verizon customer service and let 'em know they must have f***ed up your data plan. Verizon reps are far from perfect and I have found that sometimes it takes several times to get things right with them.

so the settings should just be to dial #777 and keep EVERYTHING else blank?

good luck every time i click finish my user name and password erase. i went through every setting and number with Verizon they are sending me a new phone for free...lol watch out with the custom roms! im sure some one knows how to fix it but i got sick of looking. but this it what your looking for.

keep all connection setting the same... #777

user name
5555555555@vzw3g.com use your number with area code

password

keep domain blank

Since you are on VZW, go to your dial pad and press ##778 and hit talk, it will ask for a code so hit ZERO 6 times and hit ok, from there go to Security and in here you will see you UID and Pass (Pass with be encrypted I think).

But my point is you have to authenticate in order to connect via data through the carrier.

yea i called them up and they told me to restart the phone, so i did..

Then they asked, what is the first screen that pops up
i said, do you want the right answer, or the real answer.
they seemed confused.
So i said, Verizon Wireless is SUPPOSED to come up, but it doesnt
then he said, well then what does.
i said HTC!!!!
he said what?!?!?
then i said yeah i kinda flashed my phone...
he said ok..
i said you know how it comes with wm5, i have wm6.1
he goes, so you have an xv6800..
i said no xv6700..
ook..we dont support any software outside of what we offer, blah blah blah..
i said wm6 is EXACTLY like wm6.1 except it has threaded text messaging.
he said well i can get you set up with the store to flash the phone back to its original settings.
i told him i didnt have to do that its on my pc..
he said WHERE DID YOU GET THAT!
i said off of some verizon site...
so he said your going to have to go back to the store..
i said ok..gas prices are too high to go there, so i will just walk to my computer where the same software is and flash it and call back within 5 mins..

and it was then over..
OWNED.
