Hi, I wonder if someone can help me with this problem. I recently got a Shift X9501 from China, it is already liberated with WM6 working (it has Start menu, internet explorer, USB Tools, etc.). However, the only thing I couldn't find is the Internect sharing application. It doesn't show up in the Start -> Programs folder nor can I find it in the Windows folder. I was testing the 3G connection on the Shift using my iPhone SIM card, and it only worked on the WinMo side not the Vista side. I called HTC and AT&T customer services and was told that it was because my SIM card won't allow desktop Windows to use the 3G service. So I'm guessing my only solution is to use the Internet Sharing. Please, anyone could give me a hand on this? Thx!!
Internet sharing is possible. There is nothing that you need to do or run on the WM side.
Internet sharing can only be done from the Windows side as wifi and bluetooth is only accessible there, for connection to your external device, e.g. laptop or iphone.
Check this thread for instruction on internet sharing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488872&highlight=sharing
If it doesn't work then you may need to check your windows services to check that the internet sharing service is enabled.
Then it should work.
Hi Flanimal, thanks for the reply. But I don't think that's what I am meaning. From what I learned from the forum and other sources, I think the original Shift should come with an application called internet sharing in Snapvue even without liberation, and it can share the 3G connection from Snapvue to Vista. The application is also a standard one for WM6. I was wondering since mine is of model X9501 and it's already liberated when I got it. I doubt is it possible that the liberation deleted that function? Please help if you have any idea, a great many thanks!
I got a partial solution here by myself, and am writing it here in case anyone has similar problem. I tried to download an application named ICS Control 0.21, and copied the required IPNat.dll to the windows directory, and it turned out this way won't work as it told me loading the NAT driver failed. Then I tried to copy the IntShrUI.exe and intshare.dll to the windows directory (which are official WM6 files downloaded from somewhere else in this forum), and they also didn't work, and when I run the internet sharing application (IntShrUI.exe), it prompted that the connection could not be established with unknown reason. I then tried to backup my ROM and flash with a new one from the forum, and I failed and the SnapVue was dead. Then I found a tread in the forum telling me how to hard reset the SnapVue, and restored to the original state when I got the Shift. I thought it was really the original state, but this time the IntShrUI.exe worked! Vista is now connected with SnapVue and used it as an internet connection (later I did some registry work and the problem occured again, which forced me to hard reset my Shift again). However, the problem is that the connection is still restricted to local access only. I would guess that this is still my SIM card's fault, since it is for iPhone, and both AT&T and HTC people believed it won't work for desktop windows like Vista. I'm about to give up further exploring on this, and maybe I'll get a SIM card for laptop to have a try. Still, if anyone has any good solution for this, please reply to this thread. Any help will be appreciated.

So big thanks for the helmi wm6 ROM which has so *ucking amazing! I have finally installed it on my aging BA m2000! A big thanks to the author of exitbootloader too, without which I would still be in brick mode.
Been playing with wifi networking, and succesfully setup an adhoc wireless connection on vista and used the m2000 with wm6 to connect with no problems. But ummm so does anyone know how I browse, locate, transfer files via the pda from the vista PC. I know my IP address but that's where I am stuck. Do I need an 3rd party app to locate and transfer?
I know there are a few things missing from that ROM such as remote deskop.
BTW wifi to the net seems stable and fully fuctional.
Thanks.
i think that it is not possible as far as i know , i would glade if it exists but i think it's a limitation with the Wifi driver. u can only use wifi for surfing the net . not even ActiveSync ( for security reasons [email protected]?# )
thanks for that. Yer probably right, going keep playing and let brain think about it for a bit see if I can come at it sideways with a sol. I post results if successful
Remote Desktop is available in xplodes zip of cabs. And, yes, you can browse network shares, copy/move files and so on. I have SKTools which can enable this, but you can also do it for free using the PPC version of Total Commander and several other tools.
I have an issue with my MacBook Pro and my Hermes. I want to share the internet connection from the phone but have issues with each solution I have attempted so far
Wifi - I was using the Wifirouter application successfully until I was advised that the channel on which it is operating is conflicting with an essential wireless router in the area. I cannot therefore use it. I cannot see any way of changing the channel.
Bluetooth - There seems to be an issue with the MacBook Pro bluetooth which causes the connection to be unusable.
USB - This would be my preferred solution however there doesnt seem to be a way to allow the Mac to use this connection.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Aidan
Found this and wondered whether this could possibly work with OSX?
Anyone got any ideas?

I dont suppose there are any Mac gurus here? I am having difficulty compiling the source due to the inability to locate /lib/modules. I presume there is an alternative location on OSX?

Yes I am (6.1) with no problems using it. Make sure that you get the modem scripts copied over (to Library/Modem Scripts), shut down the computer, plug up the phone and put it in modem mode, then start the computer (with phone connected). Go into the System Preferences and click on the network icon and it should say new port detected.
FWIW, I have OS X 10.4...
Hi Kenny,
I have the USB modem option in my control panel and I have seklected the Mobile Stream GSM script and disabled the wait for dial tone. The number I am dialing is *99#. I am getting "A modem error occurred. Please verify your settings and try again".
Any ideas? I am running the USB Modem util on the phone at the same time....

What Mac OS? Are you using Leopard???
Yep, I am running Leopard....
Hi everybody,
I have the following problem: when my htc x7500 is connected to my office pc via ActiveSync no internet connection is available on device. As a result the following operation are not allowed: update weather info, update gps satellite data and so on. On my office pc everything seems normal, synchronization works fine and I can see the device's local area connection icon on the iconbar which seems to be able to exchange data regularly.
My OS is winxp and on the device I had installed WM6 and now I have WM6.1 and both windows mobile os had this problem.
Please can someone help me finding a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Willy
check
enable advanced network functionality
in usb to pc
in settings->connections
Me too
This does not work for me on my Touch HD, worked fine on my previous TyTnII with WM6.1.
My activesync version hasn't changed, only my phone.
Tried enabling the 'Enable faster data synchronization' but it still doesnt work.
Has anyone resolved this ?
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling ASync?
I've had this problem in the distant past but can't recall off-hand how it was solved, though I would have tried to reinstall.
you can also try to go to settings->connections-connections->advanced->select network
and choose my work network in the dropdown
thanks all for your hints. The activesync re-installation did not work. Now I'll have to wait until monday before trying settings->connections-connections->advanced->select network.
I'll let you know.
I needed to do this regfix to my windows os (compatible both with activesync and wm device center)
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've tried all suggested workaround without success
I think there is someting wrong with my office pc configuration because in the past I was able to access internet from the device and I can't remeber what changed after that...
I have at present exactly the same problem. Did you or anybody else find a solution?
Thanks for any support, Siegfried
On settings- usb conection try to disable advanced network functionality
Hope it helps,

I have this issue at the moment, and I am confident it is to do with how this one PC is set-up as I get connectivity through other PC's on the same network. Have no idea how to repair or troubleshoot...but could not find this fix in the registry...
Any help greatly required....
having this issue too on my touch HD , i cant connect to orange wireless internet (mobile internet)
Try the registry edit suggested above. I am running XP and it works for me.

remote control via internet
hi guys,
perhaps I am blind too, but I can't find anything here that would help me.
I am looking for a Software that helps me controlling my Mobile Device (HTC Touch Diamond) from my Computer, via internet. I search a software like VNC but working in reverse!!! So, i need to run a program installed on my diamond while the phone is several miles far from me
Does anyone know there something helpful?
Thanks a lot
P.S. sorry for my english....
Use VNC server (pocketvnc) instead of client.
vnc connection problem
hi HwangPL,
thank you very much for your replay. After your post i've downloaded pocketVNC server version 1.4.2.0(demo version), but i'm not be able to use it. The vnc client on my pc says "connection failure". I think I'll go crazy before sunday......
If you or anybody else have a solution please post it!!!!!!!!!
Thank you one more time.
Try to use old VNC Viewer on your PC. I cannot connect when my mobile phone uses GPRS connection, but it works with WIFI.
I cannot test it right now, cause I don't have any WIFI connection (it surely worked some time ago).
I'll try to test it tomorrow maybe
I think there are a lot of problems with the type of connection. I use a hsdpa connection with my diamond, while my pc is connected to internet with another mobile phone that works with an umts connection. I'm not sure how to configure the firewall. However i'm not sure how to configure the tabs of vncpocketserver. I think that's why i'm not understand very well english (i'm italian) and on the web i didn't found anything wrote in my language.
So, you are my only, precious, last chance......

OK. I used vncserver v.1.4.5.0 demo, on my pc VNC Viewer Enterprise E4.5.1 via WIFI (on mobile as internet connection) and it worked. Goodluck!
hi, i came back!!!
Finally i've found the solution. The problem is the IP address. My operator doesn't give me a public IP but a NAT address. This is a very big problem because the phone can't accept any type of connection by the web. Fortunately i found a beutiful program called "Hamachi" that works on both the computer and the PocketPC. So i resolved my problems.
Thanks very much to all for suggestions.....
Hey there,
I am having i think a small problem with both SOTi and My mobiler.
I Have a Touch diamond and when i am seeing the camera on the PC all goes black in PC preview, but on device i can see the camera images.
Can anyone help.

Hi
Strange nobody else having same problem.
I believe the reason with the no preview its due to the autofocus, can anyone check on this.
Tks in advance
Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.1
I've been trying to tether my mogul to my desktop through ICS to no avail. The more I try the worse I seem to make it. I read through all the forums and found the registry hacks/internet fix sharing.cab.
I downloaded the registry editor however I do not have a Internet Sharing directory under the Comm directory.
My next step was to try using the available internet sharing fix.cab (from ppcgeeks) and it seems to be a big mistake. First the connect button under ICS was grayed out. I followed directions to change the connection name from Sprint PCS to Sprint. That went ahead and added a connection named sprint which didn't work so I deleted it and left the original Sprint PCS connection which seemed to help with the problem.
Now wmwifirouter isn't working. One positive thing happened though, ICS is connected without the error 67 crap, but desktop still can't connect since it has "limited or no connectivity" (through usb). When I click on repair, I get an error renewing the ip address.
Can anyone help???
Thanks
Bump?
Somehow wmwifirouter is working again... not sure how. I went into remove programs and removed the internet sharing cab fix program and that seemed to do it.
So now I'm back at square one. WMwifirouter works and ICS doesn't. ICS now has the connect button greyed out but I guess that's ok since I'd rather have wmwifirouter working and ICS not than have them both not working. If anyone has successfully been able to tether through usb with the wm6.1 please help.
Thanks
