I have got a $10 ICCS dongle from LED shoppe and can't get it to find any services on my Moto e815 phone. If you have any success with bluetooth ... what dongle are you using, where did you get it, and what was the cost (incl. shipping?)

Are you using Verizon? I've got the same phone but apparently they've disabled most of the BT features on the e815 and you have to hack the phone to unlock them.

Ok, I have the E815. The only service that it broadcasts is the Dial-Up Networking Service. You have to then buy the Motorola Phone Tools v4.0 to obtain the features of the phone. It cost $40 (w/ tax+shipping). It's a pretty good piece of software, just not forty dollars worth. In the picture is the Dial-Up networking service and the mobilephone tools program.

Edit: Here is the site to the mobilephone tools v3.0. ( http://motorola.digitalriver.com/se...e&SiteID=motostor&productID=36185100&Env=BASE)
When you install it, it will update itself to v4.0
