My XV6900 is using Radio 3.42.30 with a WM6.1 GPS 3.02 ROM. When I connect the usb cable to the laptop, it makes a great connection, but the browser will only open to the default VZ Access Manager page, advising you to contact them and sign-up for the $15/month access plan. I've gotta believe someone will figure out a workaround and share it. Until then, I'm forced to activate the old battleaxe XV6700 via the VZW website whenever I need to tether, then start Wmodem so I can get online without wires.
It's such a rip that I am paying extra every month for the "unlimited data" plan, but now Verizon excludes data via tethering. There oughta be a law...
So, if anyone knows a hack or trick to get past the VZ Access Manager screen while tethering with an XV6900, do tell!
