I've looked all over here, PPCGeeks and Google for a fix for this but couldn't find a thing. When I go into ISC, Sprint isn't an option in the Network Connections menu. All I see is CDMA1X. Isn't that the slower network you default to when 3g or whatever isn't available? I've installed the tethering cab and the ICS cab to no avail. I'd really appreciate any help with this. Thanks.
I had to use a registry editor. Go to HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings and change the ForceCellConnection to Sprint.
There's also an entry to delete under HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\????.dll
I forgot what the dll entry value is, but you need to delete it. Powercycle the phone and you should be good to go! Bluetooth PAN as well as USB works for me.
1) The registry fix will allow to select (if deleted) which connection to use, or to use Sprint exclusively (if changed to "Sprint").
2) Start data connection manually before using ISC - one easy way is from Comm Manager.
I don't know if deleting the .dll key does anything. Maybe it helps with 2). But when I do 1) and 2), my ISC works.
If I don't do 2), it tries to dial the Sprint PCS connection and fails.
I didn't have to install any cabs.
I'm cooking a ROM and after I get it installed, I'll see if the hacks available fix the problem. I'll report back. Thanks for the replies.

I've been using DCD 3.0.1 for a bit now, it's the only custom ROM this phone has seen, and I use TomTom Navigator 6 for trips, it works great! However, anytime I try to use TomTom Navigator 6, something in my phone tries to connect to #777 (data), then, because I don't have a data plan, it comes at me with a 'cannot connect for an unknown reason' bubble, which disables TomTom and freezes it in the background.. the bubble doesn't go away on it's own and I get this annoying 'cannot connect for an unknown reason' bubble at least 15 times per minute.
Anyone know how I can fully disable (not permanently) the phone from attempting to connect to the wireless data network?

I disabled the DATA connection (not wifi) on my HTC P4000 by modifying the registry. Look here:

Looks great! How do I access the registry on this phone?

EDIT: Downloaded an app, done.. seems to be working well, thanks!

Hmmm, I didn't have that CDMA1X key, but that may be because I had already gone into into the Advanced Settings under Connections, edited my provider's internet connection, deleted its entry under Modem, and then deselected its connection to the internet under Proxy Settings.
If lacking a registry editor, that also disables automatic network connectivity.
Software App
Try NoData - This utility allows you to toggle the data connection when needed. However, it resets itself to "enabled" on a soft reset.
This might be a little too much but hey it works.
What I did was to go into the EPST settings by dialing ##778 ( Verizon -- Sprint or other might use a diffrent one )
and went into the modem settings and changed the Preferred mode to CDMA only.
This will kill all data connections and leave your normal voice / sms connection intact.
Once again this might be too much. ( I don't use the data connection that much / pure WiFi)
But if you want to disable wireless data on TOM TOM
go to the Main Menu -- Tom Tom PLUS Services -- and once your in this menu you will see an option to Disable or Enable Wireless Data.
Just disable it and you should be good.
Hey all,
So I've got a small issue. I've got a Verizon XV6800 with the MR1 Rom WM6.1, Valhalla GPS server, 3.42.50 Radio.
Internet connection sharing is not working at this point. I've gone through the winmodem and internet connection sharing cab installs, registry edits, etc. None seem to help.
I previously had a ATT tilt 8925 and had no issues whatsoever tethering it to my mac by just pairing the phone, selecting to "Using a direct Higher speed connection to reach your ISP". Starting Internet Sharing on the phone, selecting Bluetooth PAN & the default data connection, then selecting connect. Then selecting "Connect to network" On the mac through the my phone listed in the bluetooth connections. That simple.
Having installed the "Internet Sharing" cab onto the phone. Internet sharing appears to work, but the phone does not advertise this service, like the ATT tilt did on ATT's network.
I've also tried a few registry edits, and used all variations of modem scripts, and got all the dialup info from verizon directly (so I know it was right ) but could not get dialup to work either. Usually not detecting a carrier, other times lockups.
I truely want to get the bluetooth-PAN working again as it did on my tilt. Anyone have this working on the MAc with a XV6800 on verizon?
i did have it working before. I'm wondering if you might be more successful with a custom rom. Verizon installs software (at least previous roms, I haven't tested the MR1 rom) that reverts reg edits and keeps it working like VzW wants it to. This could be causing problems. First check after a soft-reset to make sure your reg edits still exist.
Also I'm sure you've tried this be in Leopard's bluetooth setup delete the phone and try again. You need to select the type of device as any device in order for leopard to see it. Can you connect the device to your mac? Try that first. If you get a BT connection non-internet connection and you change your settings delete the phone and try again. I forget some of the setting I used. Also Engadget had a how to article for BT pan using the xv6700 and Tiger most of the information is still useful. It's a couple years old so you might have a hard time finding it.
Hope some of that helps.

As mentioned, I have tried a ton of different methods to try and use the data connection, from using dialup settings, to trying to get the Bluetooth Pan working. I've removed and re-paired the device from my mac, flashed roms, hacked away at the registry a ton of times. Nothing seems to give so far.
I've got one more suggestion, found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1794133&postcount=29
I'm going to give this a shot tomorrow and will let you know how it goes.

You can use the link from the previous post here, and just copy the dll's and exe to the Windows directory, and place teh shortcut into the Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ directory.

hey, ok great, i just downloaded the file, Just one question..
The file i downloaded has about a page of Reg Key changes, you didnt mention that in your "thngs to do"
Just want to see if i am to make all those changes or not.
thanks
So, your problem is in getting the internet connection to work and not connecting it to the mac, right? Does your mac recognize the phone as a modem?
If you're using MR1 I think you might need to hard reset and the soft reset right before the Verizon customizations run. You won't be able to run their apps but there won't be software to cripple the phone.
i have the same exact issue i have a new macbook pro and the bluetooth connects however the speed is slower then dial up it works perfectly however on bootcamp apple has to change the drivers
So more results.
I tried all the registry edits, (much easier with CD-Regedit so you can make the changes on your desktop) and now internet sharing does not even allow me to select a connection type, it had worked previously.
The only thing that was missing before I made the registry changes was that when I pair the phone, in the services listed, "Network Access Point" is not one of the listed services. My old phone has this service listed, and this is how I used it, where I started internet sharing on the phone, then selected the bluetooth device (phone) on the mac and selected: "Connect to Network) and it worked flawless.
Back to the drawing board. I'm going to try next to re-flash the MR1 rom and do as Cycomachead suggested and stop verizons customizations from happening.
bryanw17, what were the exact settings you used for dialup on the mac. The modem script used is probably the most important piece.
Number: #777
Username: Phonenumber (or [email protected]????)
Password: (We know this one, not sure if it's legal to post though)
Darn, I wish I could provide more help. It is indeed possible in Leopard, I had it going before I began flashing my phone - and I no longer have a data plan to test, otherwise I'd be using it a lot more!
aparently no one with a new macbook pro can get bluetooth pan to work. I have it connected however the drivers for the new macbook pro do not provide a good connection if you search the mac forums theyve been talking about it on there. I dont use a username n password however because i use the internet sharing app for the moment i am using wmwifirouter to connect online however my xv6800 doesnt charge at the same time for some reason so u can only use it till the battery dies
So some more results.
I installed ICS and all the registry edits. Then the internet Connection Sharing did not function at all. I verified the registry settings, all were fine. So no dice with me.
So back to the drawing board.
I installed a previous rom. DCD 3.2.6, and guess what? From initial flash of the phone and initial setup, no apps installed, no hacking, ICS runs and provides a network connection to my mac perfect. I also instantly notice when I pair it through bluetooth, it allows the option of "Access this device as a network port". And "Network Access point" is listed as an offered service.
I installed newer rom DCD 3.3.4, and the MR1 Rom. Neither have ICS installed initially. I can install the two files: intshare.dll and IntShrUI.exe into the windows directory without any reg edits, and then ICS works on the phone, but then pairing the phone to the Mac, and attempting to discover teh PAN service is unsuccessful. It only is discovered as a Dialup Access device, and not a "Network Access Point".
So, It appears I can get internet Sharing via Bluetooth PAN to function on the phone no matter which rom, but have not figure out how to tell the mac, or trick the mac, into thinking the "Network Access Point" service is available.
I have pulled completed registry dumps with CE-Regedit and compared the differences between the two, which there are quite a few, but not sure how to export these differences with the program so I can apply them to the other roms registry. I guess I might try a fukll backup and then restore to the new(er) rom and cross my fingers.
I'd stay with the 3.2.6 rom. and 3.42.50 Radio, with PRI 2.03, but I can only seem to make the GPS function successfully with the MR1 stock verizon rom.
Anybody want to take the two regs files compare, and see if they can find out where we can make the change to have the phone advertise the service "Network Access Point" when being paired to the mac or PC?
On one last note. I also tried the method of restoring the MR1 official rom, and then not allowing the customizations. ICS will function, but again, not advertising the service: "Network Access Point" when pairing, so it's not recognized as a valid networking method.
Where did you get those files (intshare.dll and IntShrUI.exe) to allow ICS via bluetooth?
Nevermind, I found it on PPCGeeks.
Don't know why DCD disabled the BT DUN on ICS.
I use Missing sync, and I turned on PAN then added my phone and it shoed it as a modem when I added it, but my BT connection is fairly Unrealible compared to the USB teather on Bootcamp
i was under the impression that bt pan has been whacked on macbook pro models starting from early 2008 on. anything earlier than that and it seems to work great. does anyone know why bt pan doesnt work on the newer machines and how to get it to work?
So I've finally moved on, two years & five replacement titans, i've moved on. (to the hero).
I still have my titan though. I think it will be a very good gps system for my wife, though I don't want her to get confused because of the 'Phone' and 'SMS' apps. Is there anyway to install the classic version of WM6+? Will installing classic save any resources like memory or cpu because it won't be pinging the towers every few seconds?
fyi, i'll be using tomtom, so I don't need internet access to access maps
Did you get the GPS to lock reliably without any data connection? Mine won't and from what I've read it's pretty hard to get reliable GPS lock working without a connection.
If I get a lock and then turn off the connection it seems to work alright but I can't get the phone to lock reliably without one.

I rock Standalone mode on my Titan using Cricket (doesnt have Agps server). Unl33ts right, without Agps you will not get consistent lock times. But mine are anywhere between 10 sec and 1 minute. And honestly it works very well considering the RAM and circumstances.
To go Standalone you need to set up your GPSone settings using QPST to use the Standalone settings. And also set up your registry to use the same.
Install these on your PC (Computer) in order! Followed by a Computer Restart.
Active Sync 4.5 Windows XP (for Vista or higher use WMDC).
HTC Serial Drivers Windows XP (there are Vista drivers out there try Howardforums, and PPCgeeks).
QPST (look up how to use QPST or you can hurt your device).
To properly use QPST requires knowledge of what your MSL/SPC code is to be able to read from phone or write to phone.
Install these on your PPC (Phone) in order to Device Memory Only! Followed by a soft reset.
Diagnostic Program shortcuts (will appear in start/programs/diagnostic).
PHM regedit (in case the ROM you are using doesnt have a registry editor).
After you have everything installed and you rebooted both the PC and the PPC you can continue.
Disable USB connections in Active Sync connections settings (right click icon on computers taskbar).
Use my Diagnostic Shortcut (Diag Mode, DmRouter) to access Diagnostic Mode.. Let the window that opens close on its own before plugging into the computer.
Plug the PPC into the PC using a Main USB port built into your motherboard.
Open QPST configuration and add the particular port until your phone is detected as a Surf7500.
Then Open QPST Service Programming.
QPST Standalone settings:
Click read from phone and enter your MSL/SPC code.
Navigate to the GPSone tab (stay in that tab, write to phone when finished).
Uncheck [ ] all the Capability boxes and the Allowed box and then re-check them [x].
PDE IP address : 172.29.223.11
PDE Port Number : 8080
PDE Transport : IP
Position Calculation : Mobile
After, write to phone, close the QPST and dont save changes when it asks (especially if you ever open up a saved backup file), unplug the phone, close DMrouter, wait a minute or two and soft reset the device. When it boots back up time to edit the registry.
Registry location for SuplAgps settings: The <--Just shows you dword converted integer amounts for easy editing.. DO NOT include the <-- obviously..
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS]
"ServerPort"=dword:00001F90 <--8080
"ServerIP"="172.29.223.11"
"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000000 <--0
"EnableGPSSmartMode"=dword:00000000 <--1
"GPSMode"=dword:00000001 <--0
After all the edits close regedit and wait a minute or two and soft reset again. Voila! Standalone GPS.
I didn't get much response on my previous question about proxy support for the stock rom, so I was wondering if any of the alternate roms include it. I would very much like to have access to the internet at work, but the school district requires loggon through a proxy server (content filter) before you can access the WiFi network. I realize that port restrictions that the district places on the network will likely prevent me from accessing the market, gmail, or voice search. But at school, I would most like to just access flash based educational website for kids.
Any thoughts on this? The district is moving toward ipads as the tablet platform of choice because of the lack of proxy support with Android. But the ipads lack of support for flash really hinders what I want a tablet to be able to do for me. (Yes, I want my cake and eat it too!) Is this too much to ask?
I connect my gtab to my schools wirelesss that is using 802.1x EAP for wireless security. I had to install a mod that changed the settings app and allowed advanced wireless settings. That allowed me to put in the authentication type, domain name, password, etc. Once connected, I ran a mod that set it back to the original settings apps. I asked in your previous post as to whether you are having problems actually getting on the wireless or once on, you can't bet by the web filter. We use websense here. Once I got on the wireless, there was an websense authentication dialog that popped up. Once I put my domain\username and password in, it works fine.
It won't even let me connect to the district network because I don't have anywhere to enter the proxy settings in the wifi set up box.
Assuming you have Pershoot's or Clemsyn's Kernel (or one of the better ROMs), you need something like ASProxy. I use it at work all the time and it does the job. There is a free program called TransParentProxy which is more limited but does allow you to quickly test settings without spending any money.
I do not see a proxy settings in the wpa_supplicant.conf file. My understanding of this file is it lists all possible settings settings available for Wi-Fi configurations.
# This file describes configuration file format and lists all available option.

Previously I've only needed to access a proxy after connecting to the network. Perhaps you have run into a problem getting connected to your network using the tablets Wi-Fi settings manager. So connecting to the network might be your first step and then connecting to the proxy your 2nd.
I found the free Wifi Advanced Config Editor (WifiACE on the Android Market) to have a GUI to easily configure advanced Wi-Fi settings not found in the tablet's settings. I realized when trying to set up an advanced configuration I needed to create a new connection in the tablets WiFi Settings with the security of NONE to avoid having some of the wrong settings configured by default. Then using the information from the my network admin I manually set the options via the WifACE GUI, un-checking NONE, and bingo I got connected.
I recommend WiFiACe with one caveat: make sure you have a way (like adb) working and know how to backup, delete, and restore files and that you make a back up of all wpa_supplicant.conf files on your tablet.
My caveat comes because my first reboot after I got connected to the Enterprise network at work the Wifi would not start or run. It would only display "error" and do nothing. Several reboots later it still wouldn't start and without Wi-Fi running there is no way to make configuration changes either through WifiACE or the tablets Wi-Fi Settings. I had to use the adb shell to delete the newly configured wap_supplicant.conf and create a new connection via the tablets Wi-Fi Settings and then make the necessary changes through WifiACE. Once that was done it ran and connected. Now after multiple reboots it still works and connects. Without the ability to delete the file I'm afraid I would have had to re-flash my tablet to get Wi-Fi to work again.
I don't think you've ever mentioned what ROM you're running. If you're running stock, you will have a very difficult time, in fact it may be impossible. If you're running a different mod, there's hope. Now, assuming that you got ClockWordMod (CWM) installed, you can probably be successful in at least connecting to the wireless. If you don't have CWM installed, here's a good place to start:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
Once you have CWM installed, go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857939
This will give you the zips for installing a differernt wireless config tool that will allow you to put in the 802.1x EAP config. Once you can successfully connect, you back out the the tool you installed.
Hi All
I have an ex T-Mobile HTC HD2 running windows 6.5 and connected to O2.
Mostly everything works fine except . . . . .
When I try to download an MMS message the phone tries to use the T-Mobile network and as this is not set up, it doesn;t work.
It tries to use t-Mobile even when connected to wifi
I have tried getting onto the network manager but all the T-Mobile settings are greyed out. and there is no option to delete the entry (edit, press and hold gives no options).
Network manager is set to use O2 (Connect to internet and Private network)
So, please, how do I get rig of T-Mobile and default to O2.
I presume it some registry hack?
TFAI
Try downloading & install this connection settings tool by HTC >
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=565785&d=1302516709
Once installed it will have a shortcut link in Settings, Connections, Connection Setup
Run it & choose country 'UK' & network provider 'O2' *be sure choose postpay or prepay*
It should load all setting including MMS.
If have issues post back for more help.
Another good option would be debranding your HD2 with either standard generic HTC ROM or Custom ROM such as Energy, links can be found in HD2 Wiki > http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD2#ROM_Development
Thanks for that.
Sadly not a huge success. cab downloaded and installed.
Run, reset, set up connection, reset etc
Eventually Settings, Connections, Connection Setup select O2 postpay and another restart just in case
Then
Wireless Controls, Data Connection, but it wont conect. (Slider wont go green)
Wifi Conection greyed out.
Total mess.
Back to Conection Setup and check but its set to UK, O2 postpay
I have Data Controller installed but that allows all O2 (MMS postpay and mobile web)
At least I could access the www before
How do I get out of this mess
TFAI
I would try removing data controller as that has some known issues of messing up the connection settings in registry.
I use GB-SOFT GPRS UMTS tweak which auto disconnects gprs when not used (set time to zero).
So in review >
remove Data controller & soft reset
Go into Settings>Connections>Connections>select 'manage existing connections' & delete any settings remaining
re-run Connection Setup & see if works !
I've never had trouble on provider roms such as T-Mobile so assume will be messy registry problem.
If no joy, post again & I will try dig up a guide & settings for O2 for manually trying input GPRS & MMS.
Good fix would be Custom WM6.5.5 such as one in my signature.
hhhmmm struggling. I can find no sensible way of uninstalling the Data controller. There is no entry on the list of programs to uninstall and I cant identify a directory.
There is a shortcut that points to \Windows\DataController.exe but is removing the program enough?
Good news is that I can Wireless stuff now works (My fault, I had forgotten they dont work when usb is connected to PC) So the only problem is MMS. Mor efiddling around, reran the HTC thing. Deleted an old connection and reboote a couple of times and eventually it worked.
And they call this a science!!
Thanks for you help
^ So is MMS now working !
If not I will post a manual MMS settings guide I have for WM6.5 somewhere.
Just removing the datacontroller.exe wouldn't be enough really, what really wanted is registry for it removed.
From your comments sounds like was mainly dirty connection settings in registry.
Data & MMS connections can be bit of a pain in WM6.5 but once learned manually or if the htc connections settings tool works perfectly they are better than android or iphone for flexibility & control.
