please help if someone knows how
i searched it on forum but didnt find any useful advice
tnx

You have to watch in the developement threads. There are some builds where this feature works. Just have a look.

Would be very useful.
Yes I've been interested in finding this out too as at work I only have USB connectivity not wifi available to me but our work network is blazingly fast and since 3G is soo unreliable for me on Android I'd like to take advantage my work pc's internet connection. It was very handy having this feature on Winmo.
It'd be great if there was an App that did this! If anyone knows of an App or a build can you let us know. Thanks. I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for this feature.
EDIT: did some searching and I found this article about reverse usb tethering on Android, don't know if it will be of any use http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html

mdeejay 3.3a (desireHD) build has reverse usb tethering built-in. Try it and provide feedback please. (you may need to install htc sync software to pc, I am not sure)

Do you want to use your phone's internet for your pc? Then yes- it's possible with apps. (called tethering. search for wifi tether or usb tether in market or on xda...)
if you want to use your pc's connection - then probably not.

no i mean i donot have a wifi modem and i have adsl net modem and also with respect to battry problem in hd2 i prefer to use net with prob connection but many of builds did not have the internet pass through option
for this aim i like to know that is it posible to add this option to that kind of build as a for example apk software
I have the same issue,having the Internet Pass-Through function (which uses PC's connection on the phone) of Desire HD builds on the Desire builld would be great.
yap
its easy you can use your pc's wifi and turn it into a access point
and then using it trough the wifi
can't be easier than this
see,you left out the most important part: problem is that not all of the pc's have wifi!!!
There is also USB tethering, although you'll have to check if there's any builds with it working.
I don't bother with it as I use wifi tethering instead.
The program Connectify is working pretty good, to use my netbooks LAN connection as access point. Always use it abroad when in hotels without wifi and only wired internet. Works only with windows7 though.

I really feel the need to help the OP here. I don't have an answer to his question, but I do understand what he's asking for, and other people seem to be answering different things!!!
He want's to use a USB cable (not wifi) to allow his phone to use his PC's internet connection.
Tethering is irrelevant (that's using the phone's internet connection on the PC) and he does not have a wireless router so cannot use wifi on his phone.
In response to the OP, the only thing I've ever seen as a conclusive answer is that this cannot be done (there is no software that currently does it). That was an answer on a website from about 7 months ago though, and I am aware of the option on the Desire HD, so there is obviously a way to do it now.
I hope you find what you're looking for

IN the revolution HD 2.2 mdeejay NAND version - you have this option built in in this rom !!!
i used it - its working.
USB tethering is part of the Froyo OS. The problems you may have are that it does not work correctly with a lot of builds. Most of the HTC builds tend to work though.
Hmmm.... I also have the same problem.
I don't want to use the 3G Data connection for internet because it's expensive so it would be really useful to get internet through usb from a computer.
So far I only saw this option on M-Deejay's Revolution HD rom and for me it was kind of a heavy build. Worked kinda slow so I flashed a different rom which doesn't have the usb internet pass through.
I also tried Connectify. My phone connected to the computer's wireless but the internet didn't work. I tried disabling my firewall, opening ports, and other things but it just doesn't work. I think it has to do with the software not supporting all WiFi cards.
So now I'm having trouble getting on the internet with my phone to download apps. I have to go outside and look for some WiFi networks to do it and that kinda sucks
I think it finally works! I installed the latest Connectify beta version from here:
http://connectify.blogspot.com/2010/11/connectify-211-beta-up-for-testing.html
And it kinda works now! I think it's just a bit slow.

Does connectify work via USB, or is it just wifi?

is there any way to share internet from computer to phone by usb cable?

hi friends. i'm just wondering if there is a way to share internet connection from my computer to my phone by usb cable... i made a search but i found opposite of what i want to do...
thanks...
tmo usa hd2
MDJ FroYo HD v.4.6 = android 2.2.1
i found how to do it...
would you mind to share your enlightenment?
recent Sense builds have internet pass through option. Reverse tethering.
What you're after is 'internet pass-through' and although I may be wrong the only Android builds I've seen to incorporate this seems to be ones based upon Desire HD.
i know this is a little off topic but if you have a wireless card in your computer or laptop you could try turning your laptop/computer into a wireless hotspot and connect like that using this app: Virtual Router

[Q] Trying to reverse tether, stuck at PPP.

Hi,
I'm not sure whether it's good thing to open one thread related to two problems but I haven't got better idea how to put it.
Main problem:
Since I have acquired my GT540 I'm still searching for the solution for reverse tethering. My operator doesn't have decent data plan, quite often I'm out of any wifi range and currently I'm completely out of wireless.
So I'm left with workable USB connection and Bluetooth. Which leads us to...
Secondary problem:
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835912 and solution proposed there is quite feasible to me as usbnet still seems to be song of the future and I'm using Linux on the host PC anyway. But when I tried to implement it, I learned that PPP is not enabled in my kernel, which understandably derailed my plan. I use CM7 by Mur4ik.
The question then is, can I somehow painlessly enable this PPP support?
Or could someone politely nudge Mur4ik to enable it in the next release of SwiftDroid? (I don't have sufficient rights to post in devel forum myself)
Or, is there another, working way of getting net access for my phone?
Cheers.
So, you don't have Wireless Adapter or WiFi to put on your desktop and share the internet?
I have tested to share the PC internet connection via USB to GT540 and i never did it...
I bought a WiFi AP and now I use the GT540 with Wireless on my entire house, i think its better than USB.
As I mentioned, sometimes I have wireless access but recently I'm stuck without. Besides, in this most recent cm7-m6 adhoc networking doesn't work either.
Yes, I think too that having wifi coverage in home is nice but the problem I stated is what to do WHEN you don't have it.

[Q] Internet via USB or BT

Hi, is possible to have internet connection on this phone via usb or bluetooth? if yes, please give me tutorial please, i dont want useless post here, thx
... i am not a pro but...
Can you provide us some more info...
I mean, you only have to do this if your wifi are not working or you must not use wifi where you live...
The main idea is to get internet to your pc and then to your phone or the opposite.
The way, i think, doesn't mater, usb, bluetooth, wifi.
Anyway,propably your pc dont have wifito make it a "hot spot" so, everyone talks about giving and not getting from phone. I have to say that all these are for rooted phones and usualy for 2.2+ versions.
First of all i have PdaNet and this give internet to your pc from your phone.
Here is what i found:
1.Propably useless
2.Maybe for hot spot
3.Hard but may work(not tested by me)
Good luck...
Not many try this because is a little ... not usefull,
pc<--biger screen
want download apps--->there are other ways from pc.
I think he means the other way around.
...i posted about having internet on your pc and provide connection to your phone... i just mention that PdaNet dont do it, because there are some guys that suggest it...
