internet - Touch Cruise General

how can i connect my htc internet to my laptop so that i used mobile net on laptop,please help

You can tether through USB or Bluetooth. Easiest is USB (also saves battery life on your phone). You need to connect the phone to the laptop through the USB cable, then use the program Internet Connection Sharing on your phone, click Connect. You should be good to go.

problem in opera browser
there is something wrong in my opera browser.it does not open when i click my browser.the speed of my phone is also very slow.as there any body to help me in this case or simple help me in installing new window.plzzzz

Where are you clicking when you say "click my browser". Are you invoking it from the M2D interface or is it from the Programs menu?
Exactly what is slow, surfing the web? Navigating phone menus? You need to be a bit more specific if you expect to get any help. Read the forums, a lot of your problems are probably due to the ROM you are using and performance tips that can be applied.
Also I don't know what installing new window means. Please clarify your questions.

Internet Sharing - missing driver on laptop

Hi
I dont have ActiveSync on my laptop.
I want to use WM6 Internet Sharing with USB cable,
but when I connect my EXEC with my laptop,
Windows XP derects PocketPC USB Sync device

You have to install Activesync and will be done. Driver is installed with ActiveSync.
Try this version of AS...

Internet sharing from your Universal to an XP PC
I had looked for a solution for this for some time, I then tried the following option, which required my computer to be connected to the internet initially, I hope it works for you.
Enable Internet Sharing in your Universal, plug it into your internet enabled XP computer with the normal USB cable (Active Sync if installed should disable and lose it's green colour) your computer at this time should be looking for new hardware drivers, if you enable the option for it to look for drivers on the Microsoft site automatically (this takes some time for your computer to search the microsoft site and find the driver), then it sholud find it.
After the hardware driver successfully installs (forgive me I don't remember the name, it had 'idvendor & modem' somewhere in it) then you should be able to unplug your ethernet cable, USB internet connection, disable your wireless which every it is you use, and as long as you computer is set up correctly (I think automatically acquire DNS and IP , the default or standard settings found in networking should be fine) then you should be able to go through the whole process again and this time your computer has the right drivers and will be able to utilise internet connection sharing through your Universal channeling it through to all programs on you computer
It worked well for me, I had my work station on this internet sharing connection through my Universal and unlimited T-Mobile web&walk for 2 weeks, because when we moved our ISP could not initiate ADSL for that period, everyone in the office would use it and it was constantly logged in to remote exchange server, several instant messaging protocol
and surfed the net easily
Could you please tell me, how do I Enable Internet Sharing on my Universal, i have looked for a way to do it but I cannot find any setting or something similar.

Hi, you'll need to find Internet Connection Sharing cab or installer, it is very likely linked to on XDA Developers if you want to do a search, it might even be down loadable from Microsoft's site!
If any one finds one could they post a link?

Exactly how to use ICS (WM6.1) with a laptop?

So I thought this would be easy. I _finally_ got my XV6800 flashed and up and running with a DCD ROM.
My main reason was to use ICS with any laptop in an easy fashion the way it was intended to be used.
So I'm all excited, get my USB cable, plug it into the laptop and I'm not sure what is supposed to exactly happen.
On my phone I have:
PC Connection: USB
Network Connection: Data Connection (my only and active data network connection)
When I connect it and click on 'Connect' it says 'Check USB cable connection'. I should also mentioned though that before I do any of this, when I connect the phone to the laptop it doesn't quite recognize the device yet (this is an XP laptop) and launches the new hardware wizard for Generic RNDIS.
So do I first have to pair the two somehow? I read somewhere that essentially the laptop will use the phone as another network card of sorts. If that is the case, do I need to set all that up on the laptop first?
I tried Googling ICS how-to or ICS guide or ICS (insert-keyword-here) and amazingly, I can't find a simple guide on how this works.
Any help would be appreciated! (I searched threads here and can't find anything either)
Well, here is what I figured out so far. You HAVE to have MS Activesync on the target laptop it seems from all I could find, so the downside to this approach vs. some other methods is you can't connect it to any laptop at random unless they have AS installed.
The wierd part is it still doesn't fully work.
I noticed that when I connect now, it works and says 'Connected' and also observe the following:
1) Under my Network Apapters of device manager, my adapter changes from Windows Mobile-based Device to Windows Mobile-based Internet Sharing Device
2) I see the little PC traffic/connection icon in the system tray just like I would expect it
But when I refresh my browser, there is still no activity :/
The Status tab says:
Status: Acquiring network address...and then changed to...Connected
Speed: 10.0 Mbps
Packets sent goes up about 1 every 2-4 seconds but received only stays very low usually, about 5-9...
Note: I made sure a data connection was first established on my phone before I turned on ICS

Unable to get tethering or internet sharing working on VZW TP2

It's easier if I just post a link to the thread over at smartappsworld so I'm not stuck re-writing it all. http://smartappsworld.com/thread-t...-getting-error-692-hardware-failure-in-modem
I still have not been able to resolve these issues. Tethering worked without problems on my Q9M, but on the TP2 it gives me error 692 -There was a hardware failure in the modem - . Internet sharing isnt cooperating either. New hardware wizard in XP pops up for Generic RNDIS device. When I tried to feed it some drivers for Internet Sharing (pulled by another xda member in another thread here somewhere), XP gives me some bogus error about a missing entry in one of the .inf files that I pointed it towards. It doesnt specify which file, then it closes and there is a big yellow ( ! ) over Internet Sharing device in network devices (Driver not installed).
Thats a quick run through of the issues I'm dealing with. I really need this working as this is my only way to connect my PC to the internet. I live in boonie land where cable is nowhere in my neighborhood and dsl is too far to connect.
Yes I searched. I spent a great deal of time going through xda forums and Google... before I decided to post here. Thanks for anyones help in advance.
T.C.
I have not had a problem tethering my tp2 with verizon using Win XP Pro x64, or XP home x86.
The way that works for me is:
Run the internet sharing program, Not the VZW access manager crap.
Tell it to connect
After it connects, then plug in usb from pc to phone
The pc recognizes it as another network connection
It gets its IPs and all no problems.
Open up your choice of browser and off you go.
I have never had to install drivers to do any of this, and also it doesnt use active sync when doing it this way.
hope this helps.
I pulled the internet sharing program out of the Windows folder (made a shortcut ). The problem is when I connect to the PC. The install new hardware wizard comes up for Generic RNDIS device. This is after I clicked "Connect" in IS. I have clicked cancel , then it says install failed, your new hardware may not work properly. IS disconnects and Activesync starts syncing. I tried it the first way , letting AS sync once then turning IS on, same problem.
I dont use VZ Access Manager. I was forced to uninstall that and Activesync when suddenly the PC wouldnt recognize anything while the phone was plugged in. After that, the phones internet wouldn't work either so I then had to restore the phone to factory defaults via a hard reset. After resetting, I found that 228 wouldn't program the phone. The next day I nearly took it in to VZW. tried 228 again and it worked finally. Got my phone internet back and I'm back to trying to get IS working. I didn't install VZAM, but I do have the USB driver installed.
Are there certain files that are needed on XP for this? I am still running 32bit XP Pro if that makes any difference. Service packs maybe? I'm up to the point where I'm about to go out and buy a WiFi card and try connecting it that way. Something Has to work here.
The generic RNDIS ( Remote Network Driver Interface Specification ) drivers are part of the ActiveSync install and are needed for TCP/IP between the PC and the phone.
Install ActiveSync.
Plug in the phone.
Don't cancel the New Hardware Found - let it install the drivers.
Set up a sync relationship with the PC if you like - not needed.
When you tell ICS to connect, it should drop any other connection to the PC (Hard Drive, Active Sync) and make the Windows connect sound. Then you should see the network negotiation icon in the System Tray as it sets up the internet sharing.
When I dont cancel New Hardware wizard, it doesn't find any drivers to install. This is if I let it search for drivers automatically, and after Activesync is installed. See what the problem is here? What should normally work, doesn't. Are there key files missing in the copy of Activesync that is included on the CD from VZW? What am I missing here? When I turn Internet sharing on, on the phone, it always says something like ''Check USB cable connection'' and it never changes. The hardware wizard never finds the drivers, and when I try to point it towards driver files, it says theres an entry missing and wont install.
Grr..if you read through the other thread link above, you know how long i have been trying to get it to work. Frustrating!!

I myself use WalkingHotSpots http://www.walkinghotspot.com/. It is 24.99 for a lifetime license and currently they allow you to use the license over and over when you upgrade your phone. I used it first when I had the Touch Pro and now I am using it with my TP2. It is a program that allows me to add up to 5 connections and use my TP2 as a Hotspot. Now of course it would requre you to have your TP2 connected and charging via wall outlet. But basically it will allow me to connect 3G using my WiFi. I just used it Tuesday night while at church to connect back to my business server and resolve some databases issues. My laptop was running at an excellent speed and I was online over 2 hours with no drop connections. The walking hotspot website says that it will not work with Verizon but I can personally say that it does. I do not have the Internet connection software installed on my TP2 so I am going all WiFi for my connection. I added a password and name for my Walking HotSpot so no random joe could just drive by and conect lol and I was up and running in about 10 minutes. They don't offer a free tiral but you can try it for 1 month for 6.99 and if it doesn't work you will not have wasted 25.00. Just choose to use it for a Touch Pro and you should be able to get the download. I have had it over a year now and it has come in very handy especially when I go home to visit Mom as she has no internet and walking hot spots runs my husband's laptop and mine without any issues. So whatever you ultimately do I hope you get it worked out
WMWifiRouter
I use WMWifiRouter on my phone for internet sharing. It works great. This may be an alternative for you.
http://www.wmwifirouter.com/
(the site appears to be down at the moment)
I just loaded a program called PdaNet and was really amazed at how easy it was to install. Hooked up on Verizon @ 2.4mbps - actually faster than my DSL!!!
I've only tried it a couple times but I recommend going to here http://www.junefabrics.com/pdanet/index.php and download a trial version.
WMWiFiRouter
I second the vote for WMWiFiRouter. I used it on my Mogul and now on my TP2 (both with Sprint) -- no issues whatsoever -- more importantly, no tethering fees.
For me now, when i use USB or Bluetooth over ICS, my browser has to go to 3g.vzwdun.com. It didn't use to do that before. How can I keep the device from reporting that I'm tethering...

[Q] Tethering

This question has probably been asked a million times but i couldn't find an answer.
On my HTC Hero (android 2.1), there was an option to tether once you plugged the phone into your computer. This could also be used as a wireless receiver for a desktop computer lacking a wireless access card. I was using this as a last resort after losing dozens of Ethernet cables to vermin under the house. Basically the idea was: connect to your homes wireless router on the phone, then plug the phone into the usb slot of your computer and it would share that wifi connection with your computer. Recently I have switched over to the all powerful HTC HD2 and I am realizing there is no way to do this, that I can tell, with the stock phone. Is there something I'm missing?
I have tried using the Internet Sharing option, as well as the CMInternetSharing.cab I downloaded from you guys, and neither seem to bring this ability to the table. Is there an app out there that can solve this problem?
Ussually a Custom rom will fix this most have the Internet share or WiFi router but you need to HARDSPL your phone. also theres a way for you to do it just deleting your or editing your REGISTRY.
---------------------
Here is the Thread for the roms for your phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
and this is the rom I Recomend
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784
use the Cookie GTX (white theme)
Follow the intructions on how to install it(rom) also onces done click on your Window button>tools>WiFi Router and you can use your phone as a wireless router also if you connected your phone Via usb to your conputer you can connect using internet sharing.
fixed the problem
WMWifiRouter has a wifi to usb mode.
will definitely be buying it after my trial runs out.

[Q] WM 6.5 - 'Charge Only Mode'

I am looking for a tweak\tool\registry hack (if possible) to have a Charge Only Mode for Windows Mobile 6.5 if at all it is possible. Most of the times, I am at office using my HD2 (Dual boot with 6.5 and DarkStone Android ) connected to the Laptop and it would be great if I can just connect it to my laptop without choosing either of the three options
1. ActiveSync
2. USB Storage Mode
3. Internet Sharing
P.S : I did lot of search for this option but was unable to find it and hence started this thread...but I will be more than happy if anyone can redirect me to an existing thread if any, for the same issue.
When your phone is charging off the laptop do you actually use any apps on it?
I'm like you in that I spend 2 days a week with my phone charging from the laptop, but I never use it for anything other than phone calls, so selecting disk drive does the job for me.
Any apps I'd need, I'd make sure were installed on the device.

Better use the active sync or the mass storage mode..As it is you wont be needing to install apps on your memory card thanks to the massive storage of the HD2 compared to the older WM devices...This shouldn't be a problem IMHO...
Cheers.
Ive got a really easy fix for this, just use a different cable, you can get cables or adaptors that will charge only and wont sync. When you want to sync just change the cable or take off the adaptor.
btw... such an adaptor is only £2.50 from amazon for my phone

This doesn't stop the action as such, but when you connect your phone to PC, with the 3 options you listed, there should be a a check box at the bottom "Don't ask me again", so whatever you choose will automatically happen next time (choosing USB storage will therefore not ativate ActiveSync/Device Centre on your PC. This can also be found under Settings->Other (miscellaneous settings)->USB to PC (see attachment).
Or, just use a wall socket charger?
Hi,
Thanks for your replies ! The reason I asked this question is because I do not have a Data Plan on Phone. I only use Wifi at home and office and Active Sync kills it. Data storage mode won't let me use the Storage which I kinda need (Don't ask me why? ) and ofcourse Internet sharing Mode just sends the phone into a crazy 'Connecting 3G Network'...loop.
Anyways, I think using the Charge Only Cable should do the trick for now..But I still feel that this mode will be helpful for few rares like me...Love tis mode in Android.

ActiveSync does not kill my Wifi - make sure the 'Allow wireless connections on device...' is checked under File->Connections Settings. Also ActiveSync should allow your phone to use your PC's internet connection (pass through) anyway.
The other thing to try is to delete the mobile device from within ActiveSsync as if you've never synced it before and when you next connect it it will ask you to set up a relationship but click cancel and - viola - should now just charge.

No "Allow Wireless Connection on Device" option. I am using Windows 7.. Not sure if it is present in WMDC.
ActiveSync Passthrough does not work..I am on a encrypted network with authentication based Proxies..whole bunch of them.....
I do not want to kill the ActiveSync relationship since it syncs everything with my PC.
I think I am bothering a lot over this stupid requirement.. so I will just close this thread (If I can) but if I find anything I will post it here, for someone else who might be in similar situation.
Thanks anyways...XDA rocks !!!
