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

boredandtattooed, dragon is correct, without that reg edit, the internet sharing option is there but you will not be able to tether for free with out his edit.

The new HTC Wifi router is fantastic!

if it doesn't work i would recommend checking the tp2 tips and tricks thread, because mighty mike posted a cab to enable the stealth tethering.

ive done it a bazillion times on my sprint tp1 and on my wifes diamond. Funny thing is lately hers reappears after soft reset also, I just figured it was the rom she was on. Thats strange.

can you use HTC wifi router via USB?

I always see people saying they use this to tether, but isnt it only for WIFI? I do use it for this at work, but at home I only tether USB using ICS with the Deleteforcecell connection hack.

I agree. As rarely as I use it, it's no biggie. Never had an issue in 2 or 3 years of doing it now. Never heard of anyone having a prob.

i dont know why it would be any different for others...

but there were no network connection settings in ICS unless you did this reg hack.... ive flashed stock many times and hard reset on stock many times, the network connection settings option is just simply not there......

so ya saying without the reg edit, you have the option to select network connections??????? now remember custom roms come usually with the network connections, but on stock its just not there...

not to be a pain but have you done it on your tp2 and then checked after a soft reset. I would like to be able to tether like I did on my tp1 where I started up ICS- selected sprint as connection and when I made the usb connection to my laptop (no activesync crap) I was on the internet.

I am also curious how these registry setting are repopulated after a soft reset- is there a hidden program that runs at start up that writes to the registry?
