internet sharing problem?
 

for some reason my internet sharing doesnt work anymore. It will connect to the computer, activesync comes up connected. When i hit connect on the phone like before, it disconnects how its supposed to, then when it reconnects i hear like 2 usb sounds at once, and nothing else happens

it just says check for cable connection.

Does low battery affect this?

Re: internet sharing problem?
 

Try starting ICS on the phone and pressing connect BEFORE plugging in the USB cable. If I do it the other way around, it doesn't work for me either and I end up with Active Sync going instead.

bump... any other ideas? it still isnt working, it connects to activesync with no problem

once i do the internet share i hear a disconnect, then what sounds like a double connect at once?

do you guys think windows updates had anything to do with this problem?

Re: internet sharing problem?
 

Don't know about the updates. I am encountering the EXACT same problem. ActiveSync no problem. Everytime I try and do internet sharing it does the "duh duh duh" and won't recognize it until I shut off internet sharing. Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated. Maybe I will try updates...Can't figure it out

Ahh i followed the instructions,


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension=""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint PCS"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
MaxCMCon=0

but "Sprint PCS" keeps resetting back to "phone as modem"
after a restart or refreshing the registry to make sure its still their
must be a policy somewhere

any one else have this issue?

Re: internet sharing problem?
 

If you updated to the latest Sprint ROM from September they added some connection manager process that resets your registry values. You need to kill that process and replace the .exe with a dummy file.

Long shot here, but are you using one of those cheap cradles off of ebay?

I just got one of those cradles, I can Active Syn fine with it, but ICS will not work unless I remove the cradle and plug in direct.

try to reinstall the device driver...i was having that same problem and uninstalled then reinstalled the device driver and it worked fine.

Re: internet sharing problem?
