i think you're mistaken.
Nope. It's a stock Sprint phone. No connection error. Same was true for my titan.

Anyway, doesn't matter either way, it's still a TOS violation even if I do a regedit to change the connection name from one thing to another (still, hardly call that a "hack" it's just changing the name. It's still just dialing "PPP")

Anyone who knows how this stuff actually works knows its something sprint (or your carrier) controls - they can turn it off on their end and all the "tweaking" in the world would not get you around it.

The fact that they don't doesn't make it "legal" but it does make it "tolerated".
