Why does TP die when using "Internet Sharing"

I have tried several ROMs including Mighty's, Juicy's, Silence, NRJZ and SSS and so, I don't think it is a ROM related issue.

Can someone please suggest me what to do.. Thanks in advance.

it might not feel hot to you, but it is still probably an overheating issue. The Touch Pro's radio overheats when it is used to pull down data and cannot charge while it is too hot.

Have you tried to feel the back with out the cover? If it still feels cool while tethering, then I am at a loss
