Setup ICS to work for VZW Touch Pro - Page 9

Posting from my free tether thanks to you!

I am connect through USB cable on my Verizon touch pro. I simply installed ICSInstall.CAB after installing Mightyrom6. I didn't do any other steps.

I don't plan to try bluetooth since I'll be charging my phone through my laptop or if my laptop isn't plugged in why bluetooth and burn up more power.

VZ network will play youtube vids without having to buffer but when you step up to HQ or HD vids it can't keep up and must stop to buffer.

Woah just got a text while using ICS. Didn't know that would work. I'm pretty sure I can't get calls though when using ICS?

im stuck on the ##778 part its not working for me at all on my verizon touch pro i have the slide 2 answer black cab installed could that be preventing my progress? maybe ill give a hard reset a try

edit: did a hard reset and now i can access the ##778 part and i got it working now. pretty cool ill have to check this out on the road

i installed the htc wifi router on my verizon touch pro followed all the steps and made my wep key now do i have to connect the phone to my laptop (which has wifi on it) to get it to work or does the phone work independently and doesnt have to be plugged into anything for the wifi router program to work?

when i hit start my status is stuck saying "Connecting Data Network Connect"

am i stuck or what am i missing?

just tried out the free version of wmwifirouter and that worked fine but the htc wifi router didnt work for me...

the ics connected with a usb connection to my laptop works fine as well

i was wondering when using wmwifi router is there anyway to set up a wep key?

Anybody experience this? I'm thinking it has something to do with WMWifirouter.

FYI: I am running a custom ROM too (Scott's home cooked ROM - SSK 1.6). This could be the problem too, but I thought I'd ask around first.

im having this problem too now i cannot get my regular data connection on my verizon touch pro after running wmwifi router i've done *228 and soft reset and still no luck getting my regular phone data connection back on anybody else find a solution for this???

EDIT: In the trial version of the wmwifi i clicked crash cleanup in the menu to get the data on my phone working again. But i also noticed when i went to try to remove wmwifi it would not completely delete from my phone anybody else have this issue of removing wmwifi?

You are not doing this correctly. I dialed #778 on my phone and got the operator, just to see. You have to make sure you are dialing (2) "#" signs. On the screen where the phone number that you're dialing should show up, should look like this: ##778.

Works perfectly. I'm running my laptop on it right now. Verizon had to recently replace my Alltel Touch Pro with Verizon's version. I was not happy that they deactivated the internet sharing program. Thanks for finding and posting this on here. Also THANKS to whoever made this! MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

I got both the things discussed on here to work no problem.. but for the ICS, wouldn't verizon catch on when say..youre watching a video on hulu.com or something using the mobile web and email package for $30? or is the mobile web unlimited to where this wouldn't become a factor?

I'm going to new mexico for a couple months for job training and was wondering if i should watch how much i use the net tethered with ICS
