how to tether on sprint using the new roms w/o getting hit w/ data charges?
 

as the title says. I'm a very casual user of tethering (once or twice a month, usually if I'm at an airport, etc). I know in the standard sprint rom, there was a registry key that you could change (or maybe it was a file to delete...) that would prevent sprint from knowing when you tethered. has anyone investigated whether that is the same with the new roms?


EDIT: this was the reg key I was referring to: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...5&postcount=35

I am using OMJ's rom, which does not have that key pointing to riphone.dll (instead set to another .dll), so not sure if I should delete that one or not. If it makes a difference, I tether via bluetooth on my macbook pro.

I tether for a month and about 3gigs of data but sprint didn't charge me for it. I have no special software or registry hacks. I just check my vision plan and i see usage on my vision plan. It says the no. of KB's used then on the next line says unlimited.Is there anyone here got charged for tethering? I think that detecting that your tethering is just an urban legend. So the real slim shady, Pls. stand up and testify!

is there a version of this that works for verizon?

pdanet, i mean...or does the broadbandaccess connect block that out?

i dont think i have heard anyone from verizon complain about it not working. i'd just go with the laterst version and im pretty sure you'll be set.

http://www.junefabrics.com/pdanet/

go there and download it, im sure there is a trial that you can use to make sure that it works before you go and purchase it.

but does verizon know that you are tethering outside of their tethering?

Re: how to tether on sprint using the new roms w/o getting hit w/ data charges?
 

I agree. I think it's a myth. I tethered on my old 6700 on verizon about 3gb a month, never had a issue. No hacks, no deleting files.
Now I'm on SERO, so it doesn't matter, but I'm pretty sure they won't know.
Before spending money on PDAnet, I think you should use ICS from the kitchen. Not sure if OMJ's rom has it, but it's very useful.
