Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

Well first you should install the Stealth mode cab in the tweaks sticky.

Then as for choices to share, there is using ICS or there are other tools such as:

HTC WIFI ROUTER

WMWIFIROUTER

PDANET

And one more but forgot its name(but its annoying to config, it was made on XDA)

I have used wmwifirouter before but since I got a new TP2 I'm trying the HTC WIFI ROUTER which I think was token off the Topaz, so far it seems the easiest to configure and does not require ICS.

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

try this

Tethering - tested and works with TP

1. Edit the following regestry entries. Hard part is finding a registry editor, but they are out there:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll" entry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
MaxCMCon=0

2. Start the Internet Sharing application.
3. Hit Connect In the Internet Sharing application.
4. Connect the TP2 to the Laptop/PC via USB
5. Done. No other applications needs to run on the PC/Laptop.

That's what I use. When I was first looking at the TP last year, I inquired about their phone as modem charges. They told me that it was $40/mo., and that was almost a show stopper for me since I rarely have the occasion to use my phone as a tether. I found someone here suggested PdaNet so I looked into it. At a one time charge of $34, it's less than one month's fee at Sprint, so I got it, and it's so easy to use and usually works flawlessly. Since I rarely use it, I doubt that Sprint would ever feel that I'm abusing my data connection.

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

its been what 2 yrs easy for tethering and its hacks???

why r u guys installing stealth cabs etc, obviously they dont care... and like noone ever has reported being charged.... whats the point? to cover you behind??? ummm, its a stock app, that requires nothing extra to get it to work.... theres your angle to argue with right there.... its basically impossible to get charged-though if they did, you may have to argue for charges to be removed...

we've been doing this(tethering)forever now... face it, they wont charge you... dont need a reg edit... dont need to install a cab or delete a .dll

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

I think bored is correct because when i plug my phone up the internet sharing option is already there along with activesynce and disk drive

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

HTCs wifi app is slower than wmwifirouter in my experience testing them all... and it probably does use ICS, even wmwifirouter uses it-might be because it has a wifi to usb option though...that option alone is worth 30bucks.. some people still dont have routers(me included) on their PC, this way you still have the wifi signal, but can use it without a router needed...

theres links in my sig for all the usually Tethering apps... no reason why they wont work on TP2... wmwifi, ics, and htc app have all been tested on my TP2 and work

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

i'm not at home so i can't check but are you all saying that when you plug in your phone and when the option internet sharing pops up and you select it, that doesn't work? that option will pop up without any hacks, at least on the sprint touch pro 2.

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

WMWifiRouter uses it 100%, Ive been using it for years..I have not tested speed yet as I just installed it today and using it now but I noticed it has a weaker WEP key then WMWIFIROUTER if security is your thing.

HTC WIFI ROUTER I do not see ICS running in background...and I remember reading somewhere it is not required.

I'm just saying that out of all options HTC WIFI Router seems the most hassle free, in no way did I claim it is better.

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

Does you ForceCellConnection="Sprint" stick after a reset? See here for my experience: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...&postcount=360
After making the change I can tether but after a soft reset it reverts back to "Phone as Modem" In other words to tether I need to redo that registry change each time- do you know how to fix this??

Re: How do you tether with the Sprint touch pro 2
 

try my suggestion on page 1. just delete forcecellconnection, thats it...
