The instruction below is targeted for those who’s using AT&T network, and Windows 7 bluetooth-enabled laptop. If you probably want to check the reference of this tutorial if you’re using the other network. By following this instruction, you will be able to use the AT&T 3G network to browse the internet over the Bluetooth enabled laptop :)

On your Blackberry

  1. Options –> Mobile Network –> Network Mode –> 3G & 2G (Optional)
    This step is to ensure that you could use the 3G network
  2. Bluetooth –> (Blackberry Button) –> Enable Bluetooth
  3. Bluetooth is enabled, (Blackberry Button) –> Add Device –>Listen (Step 2, On your Laptop)
  4. There will be request from the laptop which needs to be approved, make sure that this request is your laptop! You could select, “don’t ask anymore” so that your PC could make a continuous request to the phone. Once this is setup correctly, it will say that there will be a paired device on your phone, supposedly using the name of your laptop (e.g. Grady-PC).

On your Laptop

  1. Start –> Control Panel –> Device and Printer (Detailed-view)
  2. Add a Device –> Select the Device (Step 3, On your Blackberry)
  3. By this step, you must ensure that your laptop is paired with the phone. Windows will automatically install the driver, it will say that there is a problem, but don’t worry, fortunately the modem is correctly installed automatically.
  4. On Device and Printer, now you should be able to see Blackberry 9000:
  5. Double click on the Blackberry 9000 –> Hardware tab –> Select the Standard Modem over Bluetooth link
  6. Click Properties –> Change Settings –> Diagnostic –> Query Modem, this is to test if the modem is installed correctly, then you should see something like this:
    ATQ0V1E0 – OK
    AT+GMM – BlackBerry IPmodem
    AT+FCLASS=? – OK
    AT#CLS=? – OK
    AT+GCI? – OK
    AT+GCI=? – OK
    ATI1 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI2 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI3 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI4 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI5 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI6 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
    ATI7 – Research In Motion / BlackBerry IPmodem
  7. Advanced Tab –> Fill this onto the Extra Initialization Command:
    AT+cgdcont=1,”IP”,”WAP.CINGULAR”
  8. Click OK on Standard Modem Over Bluetooth Link Properties
  9. Click OK on Blackberry 9000 Properties
  10. Start –> Control Panel –> Network and Sharing Center –> Set up a new Connection or Network –> Dial-up Connection –> Standard Modem Over Bluetooth Link
  11. Enter *99# as the Dial-up Phone Number, Leave blank the rest
  12. Just wait until you’re connected
  13. Surf online! :)

Hope this tutorial helps! I’m also very impressed with the speed of the internet, which now I could take anywhere AT&T has service on! I might have missed something, as I’m trying to recall what I just did, but here’s the reference: Blackberry Forums

Yahoo! Zync

21 Jun 2010 In: Yahoo

I’m not sure when was this feature available in Yahoo! Messenger, but I thought that it’s really cool. The feature allows the messenger clients to synchronize the video that they are watching. I haven’t tried other video types, but in this case I’m using YouTube video :)


YQL Pre and Post Processing

19 Jun 2010 In: YQL, Yahoo

Yahoo Query Language (YQL) doesn’t have a direct mapping from the input variable to JavaScript for pre-processing on the server-side. But fortunately YQL provides a library that would do the trick. Here’s how it looks:

Note Syntax highlighter seems to add some paragraph <p> tags, so remove them to make it works

Promise of A Lifetime

15 Jun 2010 In: Christianity, Music, Video

I have fallen to my knees
As I sing a lullaby of pain
I’m feeling broken in my melody
As I sing to help the tears go away

Then I remember the pledge you made to me

[CHORUS:]
I know you’re always there
To hear my every prayer inside
I’m clinging to the promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

Will you help me fall apart
Pick me up, take me in your arms
Find my way back from the storm
And you show me how to grow
Through the change

I still remember the pledge you made to me

[BRIDGE:]
I am holding on to the hope I have inside
With you I will stay through every day
Putting my understanding aside

And I am comforted

Looking back at me I know that you can see my heart is open to the promise of a lifetime.

Till I See You

1 Jun 2010 In: Christianity, Lyrics, Music


by Hillsong United

The greatest love that anyone could ever know
That overcame the cross and grave to find my soul
And ’til I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I’ll trust in You

With all I am I’ll live to see Your kingdom come
And in my heart I pray You’d let Your will be done
And ’til I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I’ll trust in You

I will live to love You
I will live to bring You praise
I will live a child in awe of You

You are the voice that calls the universe to be
You are the whisper in my heart that speaks to me
And ’til I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I’ll trust in you

You alone are God of all
You alone are worthy Lord
And with all I am my soul will bless Your name
