Hey Guys
about a week ago i opened a thread through the mobile app but i can't seem to find it, and it's not in my control panel. i guess there was some problem with the app...
any way. my problem.
starting from the beginning
I had a Wanamlit rom installed, version 2.0 if i remember correctly. tethering was working fine then.
i have formatted and installed a stock 4.2.2 ILO version (i have I9500)
and afterwards, tethering just didn't work anymore.
what happens is i can turn it on (through status bar or through options), i can recognize the network through my computer or a mobile phone, connect to it, it shows me that i am connected, but it shows me on windows that "no internet access". while through the phone itself i can connect normally to the internet. i tried to use USB tethering, but got the exact same thing.
what seems to be the problem? if you have any idea, i would be very grateful.
thanks
Really? Nobody knows?

Hi everyone,
today i noticed that i'm no longer able to connect usb via disk-emulation, when i had a activesync connect first. Immediately after a soft-reset it works fine, but once connected as activesync, im unable to switch back to disk without resetting. When i try to change settings via system/connections the device gives me the colored ring of wait, but nothing more happens.
Not sure if its related to the HTC patch i installed recently, but im sure that it worked before. As i did other modifications as well im not sure if thats the real reason.
Anyone else stumbled upon that? Would be interested how your devices behave.
any ideas?
*edit* see my 2nd post. - for some reason the usb connection is broken
how do i do it?
many tells me just connect using usb, but what has to be done with my pc? shall I add anything, create anything?
bug???????
I have discovered that after under 3 minutes connected to internet using x1 as modem then the phone silently disconnected from windows and what's worse is that it won't be able to connect again not even charging unless I restart my windows
I haven't updated my ROM though...
how did you use the X1 as a modem? i tried, didnt work for me. Im using Vista as well.
edit: never mind, stupid question. sorry
I've never had the need to use WMWifiRouter as a 3G to USB connection, but my modem at home is dead and won't be replaced until Tuesday. 3 days is quite a ways to go without Internet! So, I used WMWifiRouter 1.51 to enable the 3G to USB connection for my desktop PC.
After I was done with the 'net, I turned off WMWifiRouter and unplugged my phone. I then realized I needed to upload a few things on my phone, so I plug it back in to use it as a storage device. Problem is, my computer immediately detects my phone as a tether rather than the storage device. I've enabled the option so my phone asks me what type of connection it wants to create, but my computer keeps forcing the tether instead.
I know it's the way my computer is seeing my Touch Pro 2, but I was hoping somebody else may have run into the same issue before and found a resolution.
Thanks in advance!
I just used WM last night as a test, and then finally sync'd up my outlook 2000 contacts and calendar today.
Are you absolutely sure that WM has stopped running? I know on my diamond, the task manager option would NOT show some running apps after it was running without a soft reboot for like 2 months.
I haven't tried a "storage connect" yet though, I don't think I've ever used that.
I am absolutely positive it has stopped running completely. I used the built-in task manager with SKTools to verify. Even after a soft reset on my phone, my computer still does it.
Like I said, I know it's just the way my computer is now detecting my phone, but I was hoping somebody here had the same problem in the past.
I find it a little funny... I used my phone as a temporary solution to not having internet at home and now it only leads to more problems
Try uninstalling the drivers that your computer installed for the TP2, it would be in the Control Panel->Device Manager . Honestly i have no clue which one they would be but by doing this your computer will have to reinstall the USB drivers for your phone and re-recognize your phone.
Tried it. My computer installed it as a modem, but uninstalling the drivers didn't help. My comptuer would still detect it every time and reinstall the modem drivers.
Hard resetting my phone fixed this. It's the worst solution, yes, but it still worked. Fortunately, it only takes about 20 minutes to get everything back in order once more.
Thanks for the help anyways.
UPDATE: Ran into the same problem again last night. Fortunately, I found a better solution.
I made the USB to PC connection automatically connect to ActiveSync and disabled "Enable faster data synchonization." Disconnected and reconnected my phone and I was able to use the Disk Drive option once more without having my PC automatically see it as a Windows Mobile Modem
One day I can use it with no problems, then another my laptop will not recognize the phone is connected via usb. I'm sure someone will ask why not just use the hotspot feature, but because of T-Mobile putting a cap on the data, using the tethering option when I need to use my laptop stops them from sending me the text saying I've been slowed down. I have HTC Sync installed, but when I go to open that to make sure the drivers are still ok, it just sits saying no device is connected. Maybe because I'm no longer on the stock rom? I don't know. Basically in order for me to get it working again I'd have to restore my laptop to a date when it was actually recognizing the phone via usb. With all that I've written here hopefully I can get a resolution.
T-mobile bases their data caps on your total data used. Whether your using it over USB or WiFi doesn't matter. If you regularly go over 5GB you're going to get throttled.
As for your tethering issue, I'm unsure. It sounds like there would be a driver problem if the computer can't recognize it, but if you're sure that you have the proper drivers then I'm not sure whatsup.
I installed drivers using the HTC sync before.. can something happen after that to where they would stop working?
I use my rooted hyperdrive s4 as a hotspot for my home internet. It was working fine until yesterday when T-Mobile seemed to be having tower issues. My lte could barely pull 1mbps when I usually pull 15 to 30.
So I checked my apn settings and they seemed ok. Went to work and come back, towers seem ok now. The laptop contexts and recognizes the network, but I have the yellow ! And "no internet access". (Windows 8). Tried ipconfig release renew, no dice. Tried reloaded fresh rom in case a setting was messing it up, same thing.
I know this question has been asked but couldn't seem to find a solution, and I'm posting on my phone which makes research harder.
Any ideas? Windows troubleshooter says "broadband modem experiencing connectivity problems, reset router/modem"
This is driving me nuts!
Also I tried usb tether but a message pops up on phone right away saying "no internet connection" but I have lte and internet works!
I just loaded Darthstalker and now my windows 8 icon shows "internet access" but webpages do not load. But I can at least connect via USB tether, but I want wireless. 3rd party apps seem to crash and/or have errors. Anyone?
SOLVED: Downloaded a program off play store called "ISWAT tether unlocker". Hit unlock tether, fired up the hotspot and BAM. Worked like a charm.
