^^^ I have PHM Reg Edit also, but am clueless on how to work this.
Is this absolutly the correct way to connect without being detected. Also has anyone cab-ed this reg edit lately? Guess next step is to have a look around the reg tweeking section of this forum. |

I can assure you,the registry tweak does in fact solve the error 67 issue. This is not a rumor,its a fact,try it yourself if you don't believe me. Whats going on is that your not aware of how the phone handles internet connections and how the work around for the NAI works.
If you have a stock,unaltered factory fresh phone,you CAN connect using ICS without a registry hack,but you have to use the work around. You connect to the internet either from the connections (by holding your stylus on the connection for sprint and then selecting connect) or by launching an application like internet explorer. Once the phone is connected to the internet,it wont try to reconnect if you use ICS,it just uses the connection it already has. If your already connected to the internet,and you try ICS,it connects and you dont get the error 67. If you don't realize this,you think that its just random if it connects or not.(or at least alot of people seem to think this) If you go ahead and do the registry tweaks as outlined on the XDA dev forum in the post for chainfires app,it connects every single time,even if you make sure the internet is disconnected first. Its absolutely reliable. As for the modem NAI,this is actually well known among users of Samsung phones. Most Samsung CDMA phones have a secret menu. If you go into and turn "secondary modem nai" to off,you can tether without a PAM plan ( but you need to have unlimited internet or you get charged) I know this to be true from personal experience. Before I got my Mogul,I used a Samsung A920. Without the hack,it would not tether,with the hack it did. Unlike the mogul,connecting to the internet first did not help. It would only tether with the secondary modem NAI disabled. PDA net is something completely different. Applications like PDAnet and USBModem are just applications like Internet Explorer. They take that data and route it to your computer. Sprint has no way to tell what is using that data. Of course,thats only true if your usage pattern is very similar to the usage from the phone. If sprint cares to look,they can see what kind of traffic your sending over the connection. If you run a bit torrent client,they may suspect you of tethering,they might even take action if they choose to,but there is no real way they can "prove" that you dont have a windows mobile bit torrent client (does such a thing exist,it would be pretty cool to have one) on your phone. Of course,its not a court of law so sprint does not have to prove anything. (Of course we could sue if they get way out of hand,but thats another story) Quote:

I assure you,tethering without PAM (only unlimited internet) is very very real. I do it all the time. In fact,Im writing to you while tethered right now. I used to do it with my Samsung A920 as well,but the hack was very different as the A920 is a brew device. (The samsung has a secret menu you can disable secondary modem NAI from.)
ICS over WiFi is done with Chainfires WMWifirouter program. Here is a link to the thread over at XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341398 Quote:

Then explain how I was able to do it on my Samsung A920. The long and the short of it is,the sprint phones are setup to log in to a different accound depending on whether they are tethering or not. The hacks we do make it log in under the same account as normal internet. Thats how the work around works.

Hmmm,I may not have been completely accurate in my assurances that the hack worked. ONE of the PAM hacks works.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341398 lists two keys to change. One or both did the job. It is in fact true however,that PAM can be hacked. If it could not,I would not be typing to you right now. |

I noticed that earlier rom revisions had a problem with hosing the internet connection information. It was so bad that even a hard reset would not fix it. It would throw 67 errors and give an error on IOTA. I spent several hours on the phone with sprint tech support and they finally had me completely reset the entire phone.
Enter ##786# You will be prompted for your MSL. This sesets entire phone to factory settings.This wipes out everything including stored phone numbers,call history and completely resets the windows mobile installation to factory defaults removing anything you have done. It differs from holding the reset and pressing the softkeys in that it resets the phone as well. This fixed my problem (that time and several times since) Before you can use your phone again you will need to reset the MSID and MDMI. I beleive these should just be your phone number. Quote:

This isn't really related to this thread but there is a post regarding this. If you change your M.IP 0 to your friends (who has a pv plan) esn. then enter your friends mdn and msid in the ##msl menu you should be able t o provison your phone to your friend account (thereby getting free pv) you can then switch back to your mdn and Msid. I know the phone doesn't need to have your service (your number) active on it in order use pv bec when I got a new phone I activated it and was still able to use PV on my old phone

I don't have rilphone.dll registry entry on my Sprint Mogul
I don't have this on my Sprint Mogul purchased 1/3/08. It came with 2.09 ROM. I flashed it w/ 2.17 a few days later and had Sprint set me up with a different PRL file.
my registry entry under \InternetSharing is: MaxCMCon=0 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing "Extension"="rilphone.dll" |
