To elaborate on this a little bit more, phone as modem is a service that most carriers offer as a way to tether your phone for an additional fee (of course). When using the DATA option, it does not go through their network as a phone being used as a modem; they simply see that your phone is using data. this is sometime referred to as a "violation of the EULA", so it typically is not in the internet sharing app by default. By default, all phones have the phone as modem option. The hacks are what make DATA appear there and, unless you like paying extra, you would do well to use that option.
