Connect the Motorola mobile phone to PC via USB
The mobile phone should be in "BERBUG" mode. Windows should install a networking driver for the phone. If a command prompt is opened and “adb devices” is typed, the android devices attached are listed, eg. “000000A6F2C7E0”.

If "ipconfig /all" is typed, the network adapter named "Motorola USB Networking Driver" is displayed. The IP address will generally be 192.168.16.1.

To find out which COM Port to create, at the PC:
Press WIN button + R > Run command: sysdm.cpl > System properties > Hardware Tab > Device Manager > Ports (Com and LPT) > Motorola USB Diagnostic Port (COM9)

COM9 is the port to create for the communication. This port number is different for different connections.


 The Motorola Mobile Phone connected to the USB is detected by the device manager as COM9.

With the networking driver installed, launch the HW Virtual Serial Port 2.5.10 application and fill in the following:
IP address: 192.168.16.2 (IP Address of Motorola Phone Portal)
Port: 11004
Port Name: COM9 (Obtained from the [Ports (Com and LPT) of Device Manager]
Server Port: 23
Activate the “Create COM” button to start creating the virtual serial port.

HW Virtual Serial Port 2.5.10, checks the ADB (Android Debug Bridge) device, which in this case is the Motorola Mobile Phone, by sending a test ping to IP address 192.168.16.2. Upon successfully finding the Mobile Phone, it creates the Virtual serial port COM9 and connects it to the PC.

Launch the Microsoft application ”HyperTerminal”  located in the Accessories Menu.
Start Menu > All Program > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal.

 ,HyperTerminal, is located in the Accessories Menu

When HyperTerminal is launched, a name for the new connection is needed. Just enter any name, for example, “123”. Activate the “OK” button.


 The HyperTerminal Command Pad appears. Press the “Enter” key at the keyboard a few times before the "BERBUG>" command prompt appears. Type in the command “phone” and the response from the mobile phone is “PHONE: BERBUG”.

To test the GPS of the iDEN phone (in BERBUG mode), type in the command:
“gps sta 255”

The 1st response could be “Invalid character”. Subsequently the same command will produce a “PASSED”.
