Re: Tethering stopped working

I've rebooted both phone and PC and can't get it working again. And I can't really go back to Sprint and complain about this either ()

When I plug in the phone via USB without ICS started, ActiveSync kicks in and does all it's syncing successfully, so I know the cable is good.

What gives???
I had this happen to me a while back. There might be another fix out there, but I didn't find it. I did a hard reset, and it worked fine again. Have not had a problem since.

If you have bluetooth on the pc, you might try it that way.
