No, but you might want ActiveSync, or Windows Mobile Device Center to get the cab file on to the Touch.

You can download either one here:

I'm running NFSFAN's ROM and I thought the .cab was included. When I follow the directions above internet sharing says "Check Cable Connection" and my laptop tries to search for a driver...

Sounds like the ISF FIX cab was not part of the rom. Use a registry editor to see if the registry entry below is set to "Sprint PCS". If not then the rom does'nt include the ISF FIX.


HKLM/Comm/InternetSharing/Settings --> ForceCellConnection [String value = "Phone as Modem"] -> "Sprint PCS"



Drive...ON

You may have to remove, or disable your PAM DUN Connection. My guess is that there is a conflict between the DUN Connection, and the ICS Connection.

ICS creates a LAN type connection between the phone and a computer. It does not use the Phone as a Modem.

Should just be able to:

Turn off Wi-Fi on computer, or disable it in "Network Connections"
Open Up your browser on your phone and wait for it to display a web page, and then minimize
Plug USB cable into Phone, but not into computer yet.
Start ICS on phone choose "USB" then click "Connect"
Plug USB cable into computer
ICS Network should be established
Start computer browser... And Surf...ON



Drive...ON

I Had the phone tethering for a day or so, But now when I try I get an Error code 67 saying that my username and password is wrong.

Any ideas?

PS when it did work, It was amazing!! I Dont get wireless on my desktop here at my dorm and this thing rocked

Same error here. Ran the fix, but I only ever get "Check USB Cable Connection". Does anyone have more details on this 'fix'? The "should" doesn't work since it's giving the USB Cable error. Where's this PAM DUN setup that needs edited?
