Phone as Fax

sfxc13 · #1 (**permalink**) 03-24-2010, 10:01 PM

I am trying to get my computer to identify my phone as a modem rather than as NDIS Internet Sharing Device.

I used to use a program (32bitfax) to send faxes from my old phone.

Anybody have any ideas?

Can you sent fax from your phone? I am looking for it also for the WM.

Hmm... I'd like to be able to do this too. Would be incredibly convenient!

I was able to get my computer to recognize it as a modem by installing the drivers located here:

Still haven't gotten 32bitfax to use it yet, but halfway there

those drivers are for use with wmodem.exe that were included in old phones like the mogul and ppc6700, ppc6600 for dailup networking.

I am aware. Dialup networking is exactly how you send faxes from your computer

Did you get wmodem working to share internet first?

Steps so far
Install wmodem driver
dial ##3424#
plug phone into computer
windows succesfully recognizes phone as htc usb modem

Now I just need to figure out how to configure my computer to send faxes via the modem

you also get a modem when paired via Bluetooth which requires less hacking, but I haven't yet tried this for fax. Maybe tomorrow night.
