Hi guys,
to make figuring out what works and what doesn't for internet sharing in mango easier, those who have tried this :

Please leave a comment below Thanks.
I've been looking at this, but haven't had the chance to attempt it yet.... looks like more than a quick evening fix, but I might attempt it this weekend.

Although both post have the same warning:
This version has limited LG support!! We are still investigating better support for LG devices. Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Could anybody make any review of this thread in area of LG smartphones? Whole thread has 50 pages and its hard to find something interesting about LG.
Sure. LG has yet to push drivers that support it for E900. Presumably the story is the same for the other one as well.
Arktronic made an interesting attempt at using Samsung's drivers, but no dice yet.
If you are daring enough, flash a Mango Vodafone UK ROM. It comes with Internet Sharing enabled and Hidden Wi-Fi. Sad thing is you will lose ALL your data. Did that and I have Internet Sharing.

First, I'm sorry for what might be an obvious question to many of you out there. I've been struggling for quite a few hours to setup my X7500 as a modem for my laptop. Most of what I've found, though, directs me to the "Modem Link" software. Although, it doesn't seem to be installed on the X7500.
The reason I'm asking this now is because Cingular/AT&T didn't have 3G in the Detroit area until recently and my Universal couldn't use it due to it's 2100Hz frequency. I know some of you have done this, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Also, I'm wondering if the Modem Link software will be in the WM6 build in the next couple of months.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
In WM6 you will have internet connection sharing, replacing the modem software. Really neat!!
There's an app on the Ameo that does just that. Two clicks / taps and you're away. Is that not included with other models of the phone?
Ant
Is the app "Modem Link?"
I'm guessing the application you're referring to is Modem Link? But unless I'm blind I haven't been able to find any reference to it on the Advantage. It looks like my best bet may be to wait until WM6 and hope HTC includes the software in it's version of the ROM upgrade.
Thanks ... also I have to say this is by far the best "PDA" I've had. Everything so far has worked very smoothly compared to my Universal, which every new piece of software was a new adventure in agony. The massive amount of memory and the large screen are much appreciated.
internet connection sharing is in wm5 too!
As Anton.Valleyman stated it takes two taps.
In the programs folder on the ameo is where it is found,and i cant see why HTC would leave it out of their wm5 rom.
If they have then that is taking the mickey!!!!
I see there are a few versions of WM6 here and, not being very technical myself, I quickly became confused about which OS I should try next...
I loaded the WM6 Helmi upgrade and, while the system is running quite well, I am no longer able to connect to the Internet on my SX66. My AT&T bill says otherwise, but I continue to get the following error no matter what settings or CABs I try:
"The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings."
I spent an hour or so on the phone with AT&T (US). Spoke/conducted tests with their tech support and then their advanced tech support and the only thing they could determine is that I may have corrupted the connectivity ability with the new OS.
Is there another WM6 upgrade on the site that may be better suited to my situation/phone/service than the one I already used? Also, I have Vista at home & XP at work. Which PC should I attempt the suggested upgrade from? (I've been seeing mention of only using XP and want to be sure I am correct.)
Thanks so much for the help, everyone. I really love my SX66 and would hate to have to buy a new phone just to regain the Internet.

Debbie,
Try this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=390862). I have been using it for almost a month now without too many problems (internet connectivity seems ok, but then again I do not have GPRS/EDGE). Other than that, this rom seems to do pretty well.
One other tip that I may have for you, if you truly want blazing fast internet on your phone, look in the "development and hacking" forums for a browser called NetFront CF3.5. I believe that it is in beta stage, but I have been using it for about 2 weeks and it is unbelievably fast. It renders the pages really fast, downloading files is a lot faster than PIE, and the best thing is that it renders full pages (kinda like opera, but not as heavy on system resources). The best part is that you can install it in your SD card (if you have one), so you can save some precious rom space...
I hope this helps and good Luck!
Hi All,
New reader/lurker and I'm a bit overwhelmed. I'm technical by nature but nothing to do with phones so I think all the nomenclature I see is so foreign to me that I'd love to read a primer or FAQ or anything to help me get up to speed.
My goals (I have a stock XV6800 from VZ for about 6 months now):
I want to tether this to any laptop and make it easy to do so. The only options under Verizon to do so without paying extra I have found are using the modem application (ugh) via this thread or using a DCD I found out via this simple thread on these forums.
I prefer to use the clean Internet Connection Sharing method so it seems I would need to upgrade to some DCD or other...if I only knew what that was and all the steps, considerations, options, pitfalls, etc. in doing so are.
Can someone point me to a guide for a Verizon XV-6800 that might make this possible, or what documents I need to read to get up to speed, where I can find the media, etc?
It feels a bit overwhelming to get bits and pieces of info but not enough to feel comfortable taking the first real step.
/noob
Thanks!
Well, to help others, since no responses...after scouring the 'net for much time, I found these two links which should help, and I'm temtped to use the short version but will read the other one for completeness:
http://ppc.stoleyour.net/xv6800/
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanRecentHome
If there is any other Verizon specific guide or something that might help a first timer, please point the way! I dig learning about all this.
There really isn't any carrier specific documentation. Just run the Verizon carrier CAB when you get done with the ROM. Just unlock, radio rom, Windows ROM, the carrier CAB. Then tethering is cake. Run the prog, click on connect and then connect it via USB. Windows XP thinks it is a network card and will do the rest. Works great.
Hi all,
I'm new at xda forum, nice to see all of you.
I have new Viewpad 10s for a week and i got an issue on it. Since my first time i plugged my SIM card to this device until today i see the mobile network is not working properly. I already did the APN setting. Some times it does get internet connection (G,E,3G,H) some times it doesn't get any internet connection for a long time. i already try to disabled and re enabled the data setting but it can not make it work too.
Is it just happen with me or is there any one have same issue with me? is there any solution for this condition?
Welcome to the Vega Forum!
As far as i am aware this is a known issue. Vegacomb was not made for that tablet, it does contain drivers for 3g but not the ones for your viewsonic. There is a version knocking around called viewcomb. Of what i have read it has been ripped off from newbie5 work, Not cool!! But your choice to try it. I will not post a link as i dont approve of its use as its not been given the go ahead by rebel1 or newbie5 (or any of the other devs i have forgotten)
Take it easy

Thanks for your replay. But is it still happen when you are using stock ROM from Advent Vega? I mean is it an issue came from this variant or it just happen only on viewpad 10s?

Hi!
If you're using stock ROM you shouldn't update your ViewPad 10s thru the Advent Vega website because I think their ROMs don't include the 3G drivers (I could be wrong).
You should update only thru the official ViewSonic site.

Hope this helps!
There is no "Advent Vega" tablet that has 3g, so the firmware does not have it. As yani2000 said, best stick with roms made for your tablet
all right mates, thank you for your suggestion...
Report back if your 3G connection would still be failing after the update.
Then I would recommend to try different SIM card (preferably on a different network) from your friends/relatives.
i have a 3G Viewsonic 10s running on VEGACOMBS .. my 3G works beautifully but if the tablet goes to sleep for a period of time, once i turn it on again, the 3G will not be able to get a signal.. only way to fix it is to do a reboot .. and it works again...
Try to re-activate data connection or go into airplane mode or re-search for mobile networks instead of rebooting your tablet.
The Vegacomb is still beta grade software and not all bugs have been fixed.
Sorry, but I can't help you more on that.
thanks.. beta grade...
i am one very happy user..

I have the same problem that I did install the Viewcomb 3.2 and my Viewpad 10s does detect the SIM card. However, the 3G just does not work and there is not connection to the network. Anything can help?

Okay....I'm brand new at this but learning very quickly. I'm pretty intelligent with this type of stuff. I bought the LG L35G (GSM with Straight Talk) and decided to root it. My first time rooting a phone, and I did Awesome. It worked just fine. No problems at all, but when I put a custom rom on it like cyanogen, Muiu, and my favorite Jelly's revenge from Yayuka, the roms load up perfectly and work flawylessly, things like Bluetooth and wifi work, but my mobile network deos not. Its not reading my sim card at all, and i've tried to take out the sim card while flashing custom rom but that dnt work either. Also i tried backing up all data, like the sim toolkit (thinking that might work:crying with titanium backup but no dice that way either. When I Restore back to my stock rom my 3g is working just fine.:laugh: PLease help me with this problem, I have been trying to figure this out for half a month and decided its time to turn to the public. thanks - A Very Promising Noob
sorry................
well....I did more research and I c that Lg e400 is way different than LgL35g even tho they are exactly the same phones. I found Area Rom Logic 1.0 on the area51android forums. thanks for anyone who took the time to read this thread. sorry it was a waste of time. but when I type in LG35G in find your device nothing comes up. soooo thanks. if anyone knows up any better roms for LG35G lettme know thanks:good:.
Did you configure APN? What is your mobile network?

Use the 12A ROM for Telus - runs smooth and not as bloated as the Rogers/ChatR or as buggy as the Wal-Mart L35
