Enable Bluetooth DUN on Sprint Touch Pro2!

[defcon6]

This took me a while, but I finally figured it out through trial and error. I know there are a few options out there for tethering, but this has always been the preferred way to tether when I was using the Diamond. It's wireless, you can initiate the connection from the PC, and it gives you better battery life than WMWiFiRouter or HTC Wifi Sharing. Best of all, you DO NOT need to initiate a DATA connection on the phone before connecting to your PC! Just fire up the BT DUN connection on your PC, click Dial, then browse the web!


Here's how we do this:

Install DotFred's TaskManager
Click select Menu, Tab Options, Select Tab, Services. Find "CM Guardian", click and hold until menu pop up and select "Set Manual".


Make the following changes on your TP2 with a Registry editor:
1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll"
2. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"
3. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\Wmodem]
Check Profile=0
Connected=0
Multi-NAI=0
WModemDUN=0

4. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\DUNServ er\ControlPanel]
Enabled=1


That's it! Re-pair your TP2 to your PC and BT DUN should be available as one of the services. Create a new DUN profile on your PC, leave username and password blank, and set dial number as #777. Click dial and you should be able to connect... just like old times.

This works, I didn't do the DotFred stuff but I did everything else.

Does anyone know if this still work w/ stock 6.5 RoM?

update: i just tried this. It does work, hower connection was very flaky. Something (device.exe) on the TP2 crashed causing disconnection in about 10 min.

Additionally, it just really using BT to connect to ICS so I guess it just a "cool" unstable way to wirelessly. You still don'tget a true non NAT ip since it's just using ICS.

Sounds like they really done their homewrk to prevent people from getting a nonNAT ip. Well done sprint, a big F.U. to you
