I keep getting an 'access denied' whenever I try to implement the changes listed above. I can get to the device but I cannot save any changes. Any suggestions?

Thx

Boo Boo,
This was the only thing that I could get to work for my tethering on my Stock Sprint TP2 rom.

I first tried this: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=78019
Installed the cab, and did soft reset.
I was still getting error 67, from using both the quick link from the USB2PC menu that pops up when you plug in the cable as well as when I went to the Internet Sharing app in the start menu. Even after changing the connection from "Phone as modem" to "Sprint"

So, I downloaded the "hot fix" that is at the very first post in this thread, soft reset, and tried again with the same results (error 67). I tried using the Internet sharing app in the start menu, as well as the quick link from the USB2PC popup app.

I then uninstalled the "hot fix", and followed the directions from Boo Boo I quoted above, I am able to tether succesfully from both the USB2PC popup link, and the Internet Sharing link from the start menu.

I will check my data usage on sprint in a few days to see if I get dinged with tethering charges. Can anyone confirm that Boo Boo's method is "safe"?

I was able to get into the registry. It works now. Thx

I am on Sprint. My "Internet Sharing" works, but I have to go through a few steps to get it to work. Those steps are as follows:

1. Open Browser
2. Open "Internet Sharing"
3. Plug USB cable
4. Choose "Active Sync" from popup
5. Select "Connect" in "Internet Sharing"

Is there a way to replace the file that the USBtoPC popup uses to open "Internet Sharing" with the one in "Programs" so that I don't have to go through all the steps mentioned above.

I'm asking this because I don't want to install the hot fix if its not broken.

A friend of mine is staying with the stock Telus ROM and I was wondering if the hotfix cab posted on the first page will be enough when in stalled on the shipped telus rom to teather without any data charges???

thanks,

from what i understand, after the reg tweaks, he shouldn't need it because the issue only started with an updated version of pam that was being cooked into custom roms

Re: ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ [WARNING] - Tethering Users ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢
 

what reg tweaks?

Re: ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ [WARNING] - Tethering Users ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢
