Ok, so i installed Mr.X and MM tethering tracking hotfix. I found modem link and internet sharing. Whats the difference and can i use both of them to tether>?

Also where can i find the wifi internet sharing program at? thanks

Modem Link (aka WModem) is a tethering program Verizon includes on the TP2 that is meant to be used with the VZAcess Manager software and a tethering plan that you pay for. The InternetSharing program is what most of us use for your normal usb tethering. It's free tethering after the tethering fix is installed. It does not require any software on Vista or 7 machine, but does require Microsoft Activesync if using XP or older machine.
Here's the wifi program http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=4170499

Re: Verizon Touch Pro2 MR2 Update includes Sense 2.5

OK, a few quick questions for everyone since I'm unexperienced with some of this stuff. I'm still running the original 6.1 on my phone.

1. I had downloaded the no push internet cab for it, do I need to download it again or is there something with this ROM where you don't need it anymore?

2. Same question, but this time for the cab that fully closes Opera and doesn't leave it secretly running in the background. Do I need that again?

3. Do I need to reinstall the 3.5 .net framework?

4. I was hesitant to switch to the last ROM that VZ released because I had read that it was really running down people's batteries compared with the original ROM that came on the phone, is that still the case with this ROM, or is battery life OK?

5. How is the memory usage after installing the ROM? With the no push internet and the close Opera cabs I usually am in the neighborhood of 53% right after a soft reset and then after some use get up in the 63% area. Is it improved with this ROM?

Well I think those are all my questions for now. I'm sure I'll come up with more at some point, but thanks for helping me out with these. I'm sure they're layups for most of you. Thanks again!

As for the rest of your Q's, I can't answer as I only put it on the phone to get the radio updated and then I went right back to MaxSense.

Re: Verizon Touch Pro2 MR2 Update includes Sense 2.5

Is there a way to disable the weather animations on this new ROM? I have CHT and CHT Editor installed, can I use that? Thanks!
