Tethering
 

I ran into this on another forum.

1. Make sure your device’s data connection is turned on. See “Getting Started With Data Services” to learn
how to turn on the device’s data connection.
2. Connect the device to the computer using the provided USB cable.
3. Press Menu > Settings > Wireless controls.
4. Select the Mobile network sharing check box.

I tested it but I receive an error code 67: Registration Failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password maybe in correct. Still reading to see if I can fix it.

Sprint has it blocked.

Re: Tethering
 

Weird that they have it blocked, but advertise it on their User guide.

Re: Tethering
 

Yea, it sucks. But you can unlock if for what Sprint considers a low price of $45 monthly. PDANet is free if you want only website access or $30 for all capabilities. I find it to be sufficient until this thing is rooted.

Re: Tethering
 

did you ever run into any issues with the phone not connecting to the internet with pda?

Re: Tethering
 

Yea, I had to restart the pc and the phone, then I had to set up the phone so the screen didn't turn off while charging. I posted how to do so in my tips/fixes thread.

HELP..............I have VISTA and the Hero and I downloaded PDAnet Android and it didnt work. Is there a simple solution to this matter. Would W7 work? HELP.

Did you restart the pc? Phone? Log in on phone first then on computer. I don't know anything about pdanet but that usually solves my problems.

Re: Tethering
 

Can you do a soft reset on this phone without doing a Hard reset? and if so, how?

Re: Tethering
 

Soft reset is just turning the phone off and back on. You can do this with the power button or by removing and replacing the battery.
