Tethering - tested and works

1 - using file explorer go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs - delete internect connection sharing

2 install - ICS_and_WModem_Fix cab

3. using a regedit program

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll" entry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
MaxCMCon=0

[HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
Flags = 4 (it's a DWORD Value. if it doesn't exist. you need to create it)

4 - soft reset
5 - Start the Internet Sharing application.
6 - Select Sprint under type of connection.
7 - Hit Connect In the Internet Sharing application.
8 - Connect to the Laptop/PC via USB
9 - Done. No other applications needs to run on the PC/Laptop.
Boo Boo,
This was the only thing that I could get to work for my tethering on my Stock Sprint TP2 rom.

I first tried this: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=78019
Installed the cab, and did soft reset.
I was still getting error 67, from using both the quick link from the USB2PC menu that pops up when you plug in the cable as well as when I went to the Internet Sharing app in the start menu. Even after changing the connection from "Phone as modem" to "Sprint"

So, I downloaded the "hot fix" that is at the very first post in this thread, soft reset, and tried again with the same results (error 67). I tried using the Internet sharing app in the start menu, as well as the quick link from the USB2PC popup app.

I then uninstalled the "hot fix", and followed the directions from Boo Boo I quoted above, I am able to tether succesfully from both the USB2PC popup link, and the Internet Sharing link from the start menu.

I will check my data usage on sprint in a few days to see if I get dinged with tethering charges. Can anyone confirm that Boo Boo's method is "safe"?
