How do I internet share on stock rom?

I have a Diamond on sprint and I use internet sharing by just plugging in the usb and the menu pops up with options (activsync, hard drive, internet share) and I choose internet share and it works no problem.

I got a HTC snap on sprint for my dad. He will probably never use the internet but he has a data plan (family plan) and I want to set him up so when his internet goes down (often) he can take advantage of his phones internet for once.

However, on his stock Snap, when i open "internet sharing" i get an error pretty much saying wrong login/password...I dont have this plan"

Is there another way to use internet sharing without changing to a custom rom? I tried wifirouter 2.0 via USB but it didn't work (phone said ready, but computer didn't connect to the internet). Phone, or the desktop do not have wifi.

thanks

Re: How do I internet share on stock rom?

To use internet sharing you can try this registry edit...

1. Navigate in your registry to:

HKeyLocalMachine\Software\HTC\USBtoPCPopUp\OnlyTwo Choice

2. Change the value to 0 (zero)
3. Now when you plug in your device you will see an option for tethering...

...if your device is similar to mine (HTC Imagio / Whitestone).

If you are unfamiliar with editing the registry private message me and I can go into more details.

Hope you get it figured out.
