How can i connect this phone to my laptop to use it as a modem? Im switching from a Touch Pro with windows mobile and I had "internet connection sharing" for that.
root access hasnt been obtained yet for the sprint hero. only way currently is to pay for the tethering package through sprint....sit tight, root will come soon enough...
If you install HTC Sync, plug in the Hero and then enable Mobile network sharing under wireless settings it is recognised as a RNDIS device. Mine seems to try and connect but I get an error 67 message.

PDAnet works great.. No Root access needed.
Thank you for the quick responses. My boss wants to get this phone so I need to make sure that PDAnet works perfectly. Is it just plug&play, or do u need to start a program on the phone or PC?
I'm running windows 7 on a bone stock phone and all I had to do was install HTC Sync (downloadable from the phone itself or better yet, from the HTC website).
I installed that and then enabled Settings>Wireless Controls>Mobile network sharing. This works just fine for me. (Being windows 7, I had to manually install the driver for the NDIS device that showed up but that's all included in the install (or anywhere on the web if you google for it)).
HTC Sync just kindof runs in the background once installed.
EDIT: I don't have any special tethering package either...just their Simply Everything plan for smartphones.

Be careful with that...
I finally broke down and bought a MiFi and it's awesome. Spendy, but worth the cash to be able to get access for anything with a Wifi adapter.

Could you go a little more in depth? I have my drivers installed so I can connect and transfer via USB, and use HTC Sync. But I still get that error when I try to tether...

I was reading in another forum that some people think that tethering is working over sprint, but in reality they are connected to WiFi. Turn off WiFi on phone first, then you get the error 67 when you try and connect over sprint. Sorry to burst any bubbles.

Oh, and before anyone says to read the post on the next page....I'm talking about getting around sprints disabling PAM. I don't want to try and get the hero to connect to the computer first before connecting to the net. There has to be a patch that someone knows about to disable sprints disable! Anyone know how to do this?

This method works and is the ONLY way to make tethering work right now on the CDMA hero. good find kylez!
I just did a speed test while tethering on my work laptop running vista, and here's my result:
I got around the same DL speed earlier, but got a little more upload speed.

Yes, you need to start the PDAnet program on the phone and on the computer. When you first install the program on your pc it configure a virtual modem driver in order to reconize the phone as an internet connection.
I have been using it for a few days.. Works great so far. I would be connected to the usb anyways to keep my phone powered up.
@Snowcatrm
(I am running mine on XP.) Make sure HTC sync is not running. 64bit Windows Vista drivers can get tricky. If I get a chance I ll run to my friend who is running Vista 64 and try and see if I get the same results.
Wish I could get root access to try out the phone as a wifi router but I guess we will have to wait.
Hi I hope some one out there may help, i have both of the above and have tried to tether them both usb and bluetooth with no luck. i have used barnacle on the X10 but the Archos dosent see it. i have tried pdanet Archos dosent like it. i have plugged a GPRS usb dongle in and it dosent like that either. any advise would be much apreciated
Hi memyselfandi47,
I have the same problem, I have a X10 Mini with Android 2.1 and the Archos 101 with the last update Android 2.2.
I tried "Barnacle", but he said me "Not correct Kernel" to start it.
I tried "Wifi Tether", same problem...
There is a solution with "Easy Tether" to connect the X10 with Win7, Vista, XP, Mac Os, but not with our Archos...
I have lost more than 8 hours on this challenge, but I'm sure that's possible to do it...
I continue my searchs and I will inform you if I find something.
Cheers,
Same problem here. this is ridiculous! Android should easily connect to android goddamnit! Whats the use of a tablet with no 3g if i cant connect it to my phone?!
Sad..
Hi there!
Someone found a posibility to connect Archos 101 & X10 ???
regards
Nope. Noone cares about us obviusly. But this is a growing problem. I cant even get past only beeing paired "not connected" to my Xperia Mini Pro. I sent an email to archos and they only sent me a standard answer:
Dear Customer,
To use the Tethering on your Archos 5 with a mobile phone, first check the compatibility of your mobile phone with your GSM carrier or with the mobile's manufacturer.
Then follow these steps:
-Pair the mobile phone through a bluetooth connection with the Archos 5 (see the user guide of the mobile phone for further informations)
-From the tethering settings of the Archos 5IT, select the mobile paired and configure the connection with the help of the settings given by your GSM carrier (APN, login and password).
To finish, enable the tethering.
Kind Regards,
Archos Technical Support
"
They obviusly didnt care about my message, or read it very well. since they dont even mention any problems between archos and Xperia.
This is what we get for wanting to by and support our favourite brands.
No help from Sony-Ericsson either.
Still nothig on tethering 101 to the x10? hotspotting the phone is easy, but my 101 will not detect it still... any help?
hi all i am somewhat new to rooting my phone. i love it makes my phone worth the price i paid for it. however i have a wireless tether which i use for my laptop but i was looking around for a tether that i can get internet access on through the USB. sadly i havnt found anythin gif anyone knows about anything that would be a HUGE help. I have the EVO 4G running on superuser, and using windows 7. I need a USB tether for my desktop computer so i can access the internet on my xbox from my desktopcomputer. so what im basicly looking for help with is an app program or what ever it takes to beable to use a USB (not wireless) and get the internet on my desktop computer which cannot pick up a wifi signal.
thanks all again, I OWE YOU one

Hi
I own a HTC Snap phone, running WM6.5 and without a touch screen, which seems to be a lethal combination (for example, the XDA facebook app will not work on my phone).
When using a windows XP laptop I simply connect the phone via USB and use it as a modem, but I assume this won't work on the Android tablet.
So I'm trying to find a way to share my 3G connection to my Android 3.2 tablet.
The default ICS app is useless - the tablet doesn't see the phone either when sharing through WIFI (I understand Android will not recognize ad-hoc wifi connections) or when using BT.
I tried installing the trial of wmwifirouter with the same results.
I tried the XDA ICS app (I think it was a port of the HTC app) and couldn't get it to run, probably because it was expecting a touch screen input.
Is there any way to solve my dilema without replacing my phone?
Thanks
There used to be an app for WM called wifi hotspot. If you could install it on your phone, the tablet would connect to it via wi-fi.

I'm 90% sure that's the one I tried that didn't work because my phone has a keyboard and no touch, but I'll try it again.
Yep, it's not working on the HTC snap.

hi everyone, so i'm wondering if there is any way to install the motorola drivers to a flash drive... basically i want to connect my phone to my work computer but i do not have admin rights. the reason i want to do this is because our internet connection is extremely slow and unreliable, so i would like to use my unlimited data plan from my phone tethered to the computer. Ive done quite a bit of searching online, and short of cracking the admin password (which i dont want to do) i havent found anything that could help. If anyone has any ideas i would be very appreciative...
the IT guys are offsite, so asking them is not really an option... altho if i do see one here ever i plan on bugging him to install the drivers for me.
if i understand correctly, i think you would need the drivers installed on the computer to do usb tethering. the only thing i can think of is to have a whole bootable OS on the thumb drive, and boot that up and tether inside there. or maybe someone else knows something more..
i don't tether much, so i also don't know if there are any good wireless tethering options on thins device.. had you thought of that at all?
Without admin rights, having the stuff on a USB key is kinda useless - as you'd need admin rights to run the software on the USB key.
If you don't have the proper rights on the machine, you won't be able to install the appropriate software.
You could wifi tether, but if it's a workstation there's probably no wifi chip - and if you had a USB one you wouldn't be able to install the drivers for it...
If you're at work, unfortunately you're just going to have to work mate
yeah thats what i was afraid of unfortunately. thanks for the ideas though... guess i will just have keep streaming music through the phone...
