Re: Touch Pro 2 and Wifi Router?
I think there is a way to set your tp2 to not charge while connected via usb. that should help the with the overheating. that is weird. I've used mine tethered to my laptop with 1-2bars of signal for like 8hours without problem.
I can't find the setting, but I'll keep looking.

Re: Touch Pro 2 and Wifi Router?
Is it possible to use this program to connect a ps3 to the net? Do I have to be tethered to the ps3 for it to work?

I'm connecting to get the internet wirelessly. It's only connected via USB so it doesn't power down while connected. I have no reason to plug in the phone to the USB if I'm not pulling a charge. It's not exactly "tethering" - it's more using the phone as a wireless hotspot. Maybe I'm using the wrong terminology. |

Pocket Shield Protection addition has some options I need that Pocket Shield Proximity addition dose not have. Well worth the $15 on sale for $10 some times. After I tested different locking programs for 3 days I settled on Pocket shield. If you set it up correctly It can turn your screen off and keep it off when still serving as a hot spot. |

No heat issues here, and I used mine all the way on the drive to Kansas City (From Minneapolis) once.

Re: Touch Pro 2 and Wifi Router?
It sets up as a ad-hoc connection so unless the ps3 will do that type I woud say not possible, maybe someone a lil more advanced in networking can chime in. But I have had no luck.

Re: Touch Pro 2 and Wifi Router?
I never had a Touch Pro, so I have nothing to compare to, but I noticed that the TP2 gets VERY HOT while using HTC wifi router. I also notice that the battery will drain completely in about an hour. I have determined that the program is unsafe for the fragile phone (because of excessive heat, battery use) and not very stable (frequent disconnects). I have found USB tethering to be superior in every way, just not as high tech, I know.

Re: Touch Pro 2 and Wifi Router?
I'm getting frustrated... I found the HTC tether program and had it working under Windows Mobile 6.1, but today I upgraded to WM 6.5 and want to install the HTC tether/router software for 6.5 and I can't find it. I've been Googling for an hour and find a LOT of references to old software, but isn't there a free HTC one that works with this phone under 6.5? The one I had for 6.1 worked great, but I can't find that link and I would love one that works for 6.5. Can someone post the link for it?
Thanks! Larry edit: Am using the Touch Pro 2 on Sprint Last edited by LDBecker; 07-28-2010 at 03:26 PM. Reason: To list carrier as Sprint |
