Anyone know whether I should also do the following entries:

HKCU,"Software\Microsoft\InternetSharing","LastCel lConnection",0x00000000,"Sprint"
HKLM,"Comm\InternetSharing","Extension",0x00000000 ,""
HKLM,"Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\Phone as Modem","Enabled",0x00010001,0

Thanks,

In regards to those entries, I've highlighted the one i know for a fact needs to go...
Not sure about the \Phone as Modem registry entries, as i usually delete that connection thru advanced config

This isnt working for me, i start the Internet Sharing program, click connect and it tells me waiting for network and then freezes. I exit out of the application and try to go back in it and i see the name on the top bar but i only see the screen i was previously. Any ideas??

If you got the diamond, might wanna update your profile

Freezes, eh? Never heard that one. Have you tried hard reset?

my diamond tethering works great but there is an issue.

if I let it idle long (in sleep mode long), it disconnects. if I try to reconnect it again, it freeze. close it and tried to open it again, nothing happens. but I can see "internet sharing" on top. I have to do a soft reboot.

anyone got this issue?

I have to initiate a data connection with PIE or Opera before I click connect and plug via USB into my laptop. Anyone know what registry hack is needed so that I don't have to initiate a data connection first?

for bare minimum:
you need to at least delete the extension key,
then you can either set the force connection key to sprint, or just delete it...

-or-

you can just install the cab from post #1

Thanks bro. Deleting the "extension" key worked. I can just click "connect" and attach via USB and the phone initiates the data connection without any issues. Works on both my desktop and laptop. I'm tethered as I post this reponse.

Thanks,
Richard

If this is all that needs to be done, can anyone confirm what the other reg edits are for???? DO they have anything to do with being charged or not?

If half the reg edits don't have anything to do with tethering, what do they have to do with? Thanks for the info ( and the cab).
