Ok...we're sure MM knows what he was doing...could very be due to the "weird" reg entries the TP2 has...remember the softkey issue when we first got our phones?

As for the others, they MAY not have been using the "right" hack for tethering.

I have been using the ICS WModem fix.cab. Between that and WMwifi router...I have not seen any issues...HOWEVER...I am on Sprint. I'm quite sure we all know that Sprint is usually a step or two behind all the carriers anyway

ok guys so i know ive got boned for a lil over 200 bux,

users who are getting caught please report the rom your using. ive been going through mine with a microscope and i still cannot find anything that would cause us to get caught. im using all thte old tweaks and other stuff.

for telus users its not looking good may be the radio :( ive noticed some new entries in the NV regarding "Tethering NAI"

does my way make it hidden again? at least with sprint. maybe telus has other settings

Tethering - tested and works

1 - using file explorer go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs - delete internect connection sharing

2 install - ICS_and_WModem_Fix cab

3. using a regedit program

[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

[HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
Flags = 4 (it's a DWORD Value. if it doesn't exist. you need to create it)

4 - soft reset
5 - Start the Internet Sharing application.
6 - Select Sprint under type of connection.
7 - Hit Connect In the Internet Sharing application.
8 - Connect to the Laptop/PC via USB
9 - Done. No other applications needs to run on the PC/Laptop.

First post updated. And thanks for the info on the bills, guys. Keep it coming.

At this point, I think it's pretty safe to say Telus users are at risk of getting charged for stealth tethering.

I don't get this message using HTC wifirouter. That's all I use for tethering since the intergrated app doesn't support Bluetooth. I can't see them catching you using this app.
