Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

I need to know what kind of registry change and what was installed by this cab so I can undo the changes.Thnx

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

Is there any reason you could not post this in one of the threads you made about these programs already?

Hard reset would probably serve you best.

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

hard reset

In jest, someone needs to give you your PMS meds wes....

In seriousness, seeing you post like this multiple times a day puts you on a very similar level to the OPs...I know you're fed up and want a clean forum, but all you are doing is adding to the fire.



BTW, SK tools has built in features for registry cleaning after uninstall, but SK Tools also costs around $9. If you don't wanna do that, unzip the .CAB and look for a .xml file, all the registry changes should be included there.

I am not being rude or inconsiderate just trying to get people to keep things a little cleaner. if you look at the threads I have responded to, most of them are new people and more than likely don't know better (even though I would hope so). If you don't think my response's are correct than please feel free to PM me about it.

I have never discouraged anyone from Posting I have just asked that instead of creating a new post about something thats already being discussed use the existing thread.

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

I never wish to clutter things up either, but I did search around and I couldn't find information exactly what this cab does and it doesn't have an uninstall option. It's good we have this info so anyone wish to remove undo can do that for ary reason (whether its related to whatever problem I have or not. That's why I thonght it deserve a thread by itself.)

Hard reset I guess is always the answer, but that would be for kinda last resort

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

Have you tried TMS uninstaller?? I think there is an option to include files that are not showing as installed, this might be a solution to your problem.

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

K. thanks. will try that.

Still wouldbe good to know what the cab does if anyone knows :)

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

You could always use a program like Cab to OEM to break it down to see whats inside, might help you. attached is the program.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

update: I've hard reset and reinstall WModem but still no go. So whatever changes ics and wmodem fix.cab madc is not the answer either.

Just can't imagine what kind of setting or changes they made to TP2 that prevert use of wmodem. The phone does dial in and appear to initiate some sort of data connection but the verify user name on computer never goes thr allthe way like it used to.:(

Re: Need to uninstall, undo ICS and WModem fix.cab
 

Thnx.will chk it out

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

Gten, looks like right now you are the only one got wmodem to work w/ TP2 w/ 6.5 Rom as far as I know. Any chance could try to replicate the result oh yr TP2 or another TP2. I am really @a loss on What it could be. Sprint definite did good this time. I still think we can outdo them though. thnx

Also I am wondering and highly suspicious that some additional reg changes might be needed since TP/titan to get this to work since sprint did change stuff in 6.5 to make tethering using ICS harder also...

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

Well which rom are you using? Also you were able to get it working on say wm6.1? Also the one I setup on was wm6.5.3 which is obviously not based on sprint source....so maybe it is a sprint config...

But weird thing is I had the same issue with login and then after the changes it worked :/


Edit:

looks like a config for wm6.1 and bluetooth on sprint...may also work...

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I am using stock 6.5 sprint rom. Think I might have to flash to 6.1 rom toconfirm my suspicion. I just hope gps would still be working as nicely in 6.1 for TP2 because it working great right now TP2 w/ 6.5. GPS was so horrible on my TP1 w/ 6.1 and that's about the only thing that make me hesitate from flashing Tp2 back tu 6.1 and poss. stay w/ 6.1.

The fact that it works on phone w/ non Sprint 6.5 RoM further confirm my suspicion.

Gten, if you have stock 6.5 RoM much appre if you can see if it'll work on yours. also do you mind letting me know what custom 6.5 RoM on yr friend TP2? I might either try it 0r poss contact the chef for more info.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

What about flashing a none stock 6.5?

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

Ya,I am considering that too.(See edited prior post). Still, in this cat and mouse game w/ sprint, I think we can't give in.

Updated: Flashed back to Sprint 6.1 Rom and tried wmodem. Stucked at the same place as I was with 6.5 Sprint rom. So it seems wmodem doesn't work with TP2 Stock rom 6.1 or 6.5.

There's two things I want to try now:

1. gTen: do you remember what custom rom it was that yr friend TP2 had? I would like to try that out. I am wondering if Sprint has done something to TP2 starting with even 6.1 rom to prevent wmodem from working.

2. I am going to switch back to my TP1 temporarily and see if I can use the wmodem on it again. Reason is that I want to make sure they didn't surreptiously do something to my acc that disable the ability to tether with wmodem on any phone at all. I think this is highly unlikely but probably just to make sure..... Unfortunately sprint www is down right now like every night for back up so i cant switch phone right now ;(

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I don't remember the rom exactly other that it was 6.5.3...:/

if any rom were not to be effected by sprint's customizations it would be 6.5.3 as usually it is gotten from unlocked devices and etc..

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I was looking around at the usual registry settings for Wmodem on my TP2. Under HKLM/software/OEM/WModem there is a new DWORD Connected = 0. This was not present on my old TP1.

So I went ahead and delete all the reg values under WModem (Checkprofile, Multi-NAI, WmodemDUN, and Connected). Reset the TP2. Check the reg again. All the other values are gone with the exception of one: Connected = 0. I keep deleting and everytime I reset the phone, this DWORD Connected = 0 shows up again under WModem section of the reg. Of course if I change the value to 1 and reset it again comes back to 0.

My gut feeling now is that this might have something to do with me not being able to use Wmodem on my TP2.

Much appreciated if anyone can give me a clue on how I can make the TP2 keeps the value for the DWORD Connected = 1 after reseting. Thanks

Sprint is definitely getting very devious....

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

well, it's been a while since I did this, but I do understand your need.
during my time using wmodem I did notice having to fight with usb/drivers on the pc quite abit a various times.
have you disabled active sync usb? (ps. google and dwnld active tweak)

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I do when I try wmodem. See if you can check out on your TP2 to see if you also have that registry entry under the WModem section DWord Value: Connected = 0.

If you can, try Wmodem on your TP2 and see if it will go thr with the connection like it used to with Mogul and TP1. As i said, I believe that this new reg value i am seeing in TP2 might have something to do with me not being able to use Wmodem since everytime I tried to delete or change "Connected = 0", it always comes back again after a reset.

Would appreciated if anyone else can verify this under their TP2. Thanks

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

aww, now I gotta work? lol. j/k
actually i'm not sure that reg key is a big deal. it's likely just a status flag.

I'll see if I can't look into it for ya soon, but I know if I start messin, i'll kill hours ;)

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

Shaggy, much appreciated your help man. I am definitely a very persistent person (as you probably already know ;) but my persitence can only get things so far because I don't have much in depth technical knowledge. So this thing could be something real simple that I just happen not to have been able to recognize. However, I do believe that it's not a simple matter as it looks like they did go thr great length to really try to clam down on any kind of tethering. Which of course motivated me even more as I really hate any company with any attempt to clam down on users (which is exactly why we are not using an iphone)...

I think I know that sprint and HTC knows the benefits the tether method Wmodem provide compared to ICS which is why looks like they are trying to also clam down on wmodem even though it's very obvious that only a small minority is using wmodem mostly for the benefit of vpn...

Well, I guess I will keep knockin at it....

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

At this poirtI've tried just about everything. I know that even in 6.l, seem you can't use wmodem due to something sprint did. Gten indicate that his friend tp2u/ custom RoM 6.5.3 has wmodem working. Anyone know or Suggest a custom 6.5 RoM that let me use Wmodem? thnx

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I have tried this method of BT DUN: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...35#post1780335

you do get internet but there is still no nonNAT'ed iP. I chked after connecting and i still got an internal ip of l92.l68.*. And I think I know why. Under the HKLM/software/Widcomm/plugin/DUNServer there is a string value: "ModemInterface = ICS".

So in essence the BT DUN just use ICS so instead thr USB it's now thr BT.

Once again, I don't know if Sprint is specifically targeting nonNAT'ed ip even more intensive in their effort to clam down on tether. It seems every method to successfully tether on TP2 so far has resulted in a NAT'ed ip.

Please, if anyone here has an idea of how we can tether on TP2 w/ a nonNAT'ed ip (be it wmodem or any method) , please say it. All of us w/ IPSEC and certain other VPN really need the nonNAT'ed ip.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

i have mr.x newest rom and i installed wmodem 2.25 and whenever i open it, it turns off the data connection. I can go to comm manager and turn it back on, but regardless of what i try, i can never get the Start button to work. it's always greyed out. Any ideas?

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

when you activate wmodem, the data connection in comm mana. is supposed to be off so that it can be used by wmodem. If it was on before, it was probably becaube you used opera just right before. so once you turn off data conn in comm mana you should be able to hit the start button in wmodem. Note that not until you initiate a dial in on your PC do you supposed to see data connection activity on the phone status bar at top.

problem I have is that the dial-in never completely goes thr pass the username verify screen on the pc and stucked on this screen. It never give a box that says invalid login ever. It just plainly stuck there.. The phone no doubt does try to dial in wheh you ask it to.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

ok..i've never used this program before. so i'm tryin to learn it. ha.

i follow what you said but i still never get the option to hit start. it's still greyed out. when i open wmodem and connect usb cable, i see Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter come up in my device manager. Is there something i'm missin here? I only need to install the wmodem 2.25 cab, right? Is there somethin else i need to do? i'm on windows 7 x64, if that matters.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I take that you already got the 64 bit driver for HTC Wmodem installed on your system. If not see here.... http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...er#post1701191


So with wmodem things works differently than ICS. First you activate wmodem (making sure that data connection under comm manager is off). It supposed to let you hit start. Do not connect to the computer until you hit the start button first. Once you hit start, wmodem makes your phone appears to the computer as an actual modem and not a phone when you connect to your computer subsequently. So your computer shouldn't even try to bring up activesync or anything related to activesync up when you connect your phone to the computer. When you say that "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter come up in my device manager" something is definitely not right. I don't know if Verizon has changed anything recently on their phone but the user I mentioned above apparently was able to get it on his Veri TP2 to work.

The way wmodem is definitely very different from ICS tethering. The order that you supposed to activate the wmodem program and connect to the computer is listed on the first page of the same thread that I posted above along with the resgistry changes... It seems a lot of direction, but it's not. And it's definitely worth it to get a non NAT ip

Btw, I did msg vizionforever but got no reply from him so far ;(. I am not sure how much i will be able to apply whatever on verizon phone to sprint but I am definitely interested in knowing more...

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

well then it must not work with this rom. i open wmodem with the data connection off and still Start is greyed out. thanks for all the info

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

so...i remembered that wmodem is included in the stock 6.5 verizon rom, so i flashed it real quick. Opened EPST and took "dun" out of the nai settings. reboot. opened wmodem, clicked on start, plugged in usb cable, on computer i dialed #777 connection with blank username and password, and boom...i was surfin. no nat ip address. that was too freakin easy.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I am so f**k jeolous and of course happy it works so easy for you ;). This confirms my belief that there is nothing in WM 6.5 itself to prevent wmodem from working. I definitely believe that sprint did something to prevent wmodem from working. I think we will get down to the bottom of this....

Well, are you going to try to install wmodem cab on your other rom? any idea why it didn't work for you the first time around?

can you tell me exactly more about this "and took "dun" out of the nai settings" ie which section of epst? Don't know if it applies to sprint but does look very interesting... thnx

I did have a feeling that wmodem would work on verizon as there was someone named vizionforever that got it to work back in late 2009 according to one of the posts in Mogul forum I noted above. So I am not completely surprised it does work on vzon. Now to get it to work on sprint again......

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

See I said it was possible >.>

And hes you can access EPST on sprint as well..

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

i tried re-installing the wmodem a couple times on mr.x rom, and the start was always greyed out.

on my phone there's only 2 pages in epst that have the dial up username/user id. (example: 5555555555@dun.vzw3g.com)
Open EPST and go to the Security page. make sure "dun" is not in any of the entries there.
then go to M.IP Defailt Profile page and do the same.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

To access EPST by the way go to dialer and diale ##778# but you need an unlock code...

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I don't have Security page. I only have M.IP Defailt Profile and M.IP customer profile on my sprint and there is no dun in any of those entry ;(

Might be interesting if you can't find out why you can't get wmodem to work on your custom rom? I don't know why the start button would be grey out in your case.

I got the MSL for my TP2 however I don't see any of obvious change I can make to the EPST itself. I compared the EPST of TP2 and TP1 and I am not seeing an apparent difference to make a change (of course there are difference in other sections of the EPST but I don't think any are related to getting wmodem to work.

btw, you noticed that in razorlove case the stock vzon 6.5 "has wmodem included"...? and in our case the sprint stock 6.5 rom doesn't?... Bet ya sprint and htc have their fingerprints all over this dirty work....

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

are you sure you dialed ##778#? it sounds like you dialed ##3282# instead.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

I did dial 778. I see display, a-key, nam settings, cdma settings, home sid/home nid, modem settings, prl, data parameters, phone directory, m.ip settings, m.ip default profile, m.ip customer profile 1 thr 4..... No security page. Of course could be because i have sprint not vzon..

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

well, i've gotten the start option a couple of times, but not reliably. and of course every time I got it to start, my pc couldn't load the drivers.
post more when I figure more out.

Re: Why is everyone so against the WModem concept for TP2?
 

when you entered the epst, did you choose VIEW or did you choose EDIT. You have to choose EDIT and enter your msl to see it
