Troubles with Internet Sharing on TP2...???

[angelleye]

I used to have an HTC Mogul (Sprint PPC-6800) and I was able to easily get the internet sharing to work by editing the registry so that the ForceCellConnection option was set to Sprint PCS. This allowed me to tether the phone to my laptop over BT or USB and it worked great.

Now I've got a Touch Pro 2 and I'm trying to do the same thing but without any luck. I've got the same registry editor I had before (PHM Registry Editor) but when I make the registry update to the ForceCellConnection entry and then reboot the phone the option reverts back to Phone as Modem and the connection with my laptop won't work.

Any information on why that option keeps reverting back by itself or how to get this working would be greatly appreciated. I did try the .cab in the sticky for hacks (ICS and WModem fix) but it's still showing Phone as Modem in the registry and the tethering still does not work.

Please advise. Thanks!!!
