well i dont think u need to stop active sync. but i dont use that rom. you are doing everything correct except one thing. you DO want to start internet sharing BEFORE you plug it in to your computer. you WANT it to say 'check usb cable'.

the way to disable active sync is to open it. go to 'connection settings' and remove the check that says 'allow USB connections' that way active sync wont start when u connect.
