I have done some testing and the truth is that the cab is not necessarily needed. If you do the registry edits listed above (and I would start with adding the new D word value for Flags first). You can use the factory Internet Sharing as long as you make sure to run a process that requires data to be on just before. In other words, if Internet Sharing has to create a data connection itself (dial 777) you will get asked for a username and password. But if you launch IE or Opera on the phone first, it works just fine. And you will still have the option for using bluetooth PAN and not have to install a cab that is doing who knows what else. At least that is how it worked for me. If someone else wants to try it without the cab and report back what you get, that may be of help.

The procedure that you provided does work just like the one used on the 6.1 Rom, Thanks for testing this out.
