Phone as modem not working

Sprint just replaced my TP with a TP2. It has the latest 2.04.651.4 ROM and Windows Mobile 6.5. I'm trying to get the tethering/phone as modem working. But I'm getting "67 Registration" errors anytime I actually try to connect. I've searched the forums and tried evertything I could find on this, like the steps outlined below. But everytime I soft boot the phone, the ForceCellConnection goes back to "phone as modem". Apparently, this stuff is getting forced there in the boot up routines? Is there some way around this?

I really need to get this working, so am open to ANY suggestions, like different ROM's, etc. Does anyone have this working with the latest Sprint ROM?

Thanks in advance for any help.

- Enable USB Teathering -
1. Go to: [HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
2. Create a new DWORD Value called "Flags" and set the value data to "4"
(if it is already there then skip)
3. Softreset
4. Go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
5: Delete the "isext.dll" entry
6. Go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
7. Change "ForceCellConnection" from "PhoneAsModem" to "Sprint"
8. Softreset

Install ICS and WModem Fix.cab

Re: Phone as modem not working

Thanks for the idea. I've done several hard resets today, trying different configurations/methods. I am able to get the steps under the "enable tethering" part of my first post to stick now, but I still get the same "67" errors when trying to connect via the Internet Sharing program.

I also tried Tattoed's cab after a hard reset, but it deleted the Internet Sharing program altogether. So that was a no-go, unless I need to use some other method/program to connect with after using that cab?

Again, is there a different/older ROM I can install to get this working? I don't care about having the latest release, especially if it means not being able to tether.

Again, is there anyone that is able to tether with this release of Sprint's ROM?

im runnin the stock 6.5 rom man.. upgraded from 6.1 like most.. this is same cab ive used every time.. you dont go change the registry then do the cab... the cabs do the reg stuff for you.... especially if you hard reset, you shouldnt of had issues after the cab..

Re: Phone as modem not working

first off...ICS_WModem fix actually gives you ANOTHER interner share icon. Use the one that ONLY allows Sprint as your data connection. You don't need all those other regedits to get things going.

Secondly, there is also an app called WMWifiRouter. It is now a paid app. Once upon a time, it was free. I'm sure if you searched/googled enough you'll run across a free/OLDER version. I personally suggest paying for it...because it is worth what you pay AND THEN SOME!

Lastly, before you do anymore...I'd say clear storage (hard reset) and start over fresh.

Re: Phone as modem not working

I have this same problem. I had a diamond that did not have this problem with 6.5, so I'm confused about what it could be

Yes, I understand it gives me a 2nd IS icon. I deleted the old one first from Windows/Start Menu. But I get the "67" errors with the created one, too. But most threads I've seen that install that cab also mention the regedits, so I've been doing those. Maybe I'll try it just on it's own.

I thought that was just to provide a wireless connection to my laptop, not a connection to Sprint. I'll have to look into it some more.

Yeah, that's where I'm at right now. I did another hard reset after the many attempts I tried yesterday. So the phone is sitting at the factory load right now, with minor stuff like contacts loaded, regedit installed, etc.

I called Sprint support and the tech told me that as of Feb, they no longer allow tethering on the new phones. So I wonder if there's something deeper at work here in the ROM that nobody has ferreted out yet.
