Just use this. Turns your HTC phone into a wifi hot spot. Works slick and not tethering.

It does not automatically create a start menu icon. Go into the Windows folder on your device and find the file in the root directory. Click and hold and make a shortcut in the start menu. From there, simply start the device and enter a WEP key of your choice. Your laptop should find it as a wireless network.
From WMpoweruser.com
The cab does not create a shortcut, but the app can be found under \windows\CMInternetsharing.exe. Once a shortcut is created under \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, the worst part is over.
Now one simply need to start the app, set a WIFI WEP key, click start and connect from your computer. No further setup seems necessary at all

That's the big deal... once I connect it once it keeps connecting back until I soft reset... It doesn't matter if I press disconnect on the bubble... It will just dial back again in a few seconds.
Anyone has a clue on what it might be? any setting I might change?

Some program is reconnecting beause it needs internetconnection. A common reason is that you choose an emailaccount to check your mail at intervals. In that case, if you change that email setting to check manually, it only connects when you ask for it.
Perhaps in your case you activated an other program (f.i. the Wheather tab of Home plugin?) that uses an internet connection. But you should search the solution in that direction. Good Luck!

I haven't used msn Live for a while now, but I can remember that I encountered the same reconnecting issue when I tried it some time ago. I also found out a way to change setting to make it stop. The only thing is.... I can't remember and I don't have it installed at the moment. But I think you have answered your own question.
No doubt about it that this issue is decribed in at least one of the many threads. Try the search option, I'm sure it will be succesfull!
solved it by installing a new msn live version. looks like it was a bug...

You can adjust individually, which connection you want to close.
is there anyway to hook up the mogul as a phone as modem with usb without having the phone as modem package thru sprint??
yeah. the info is all on here somewhere, but most people say it just works with nothing added... if not, worst case scenario is you may have to start you connection manually first by opening up a webpage, checking email, etc... on your device, THEN connecting it.

search for 'tethering' on this forum for some valuable threads on the topic. there is a registry key that you will need to remove in order to circumvent the error messages that can appear.
i'm pretty sure offhand that it is located here:
HKLM/Comm/InternetSharing/
Delete the 'Extensions' key in this folder.
if you dont have a registry editing program, id suggest trying total commander. it's a great freeware app for many things other than just the registry. good luck!
big problem
I use dial up on my laptop, but when I got my mogul I used my phone as a modem and now when I try to use dial up it's giving me an error message saying modem not found......what im trying to say is it won't let me use dial up any more without searching for my phone's modem.....what can I do to resolve this problem??? help please and thank you.
well i tried the extension thing and all that regitry editing and it didnt work. so i found WMWifiRouter. created a ad hoc network on the laptop connected to the phone and this little program does the rest. its awesome. decent speed too.
Hey all. I use the old cycleBT utility to turn BT on and off constantly. I am looking for a utility that could sit in the start menu as a single program that would change my roaming settings from Sprint Only to Automatic, etc.
Has anyone come across such a utility. If not, is this something that could be done in Mortscript? Could anyone take a stab at it?
Thanks,
Josh
PS-I want to have this to save battery life and turn on roaming easily only when there is no signal at all. I work in a hospital and there is NO cell service in the basement and then I get one bar roaming and then back to sprint, etc...and it fries the battery
i too would like to request such a feature
I am not a programmer, but I have dabbled a little with mortscript. I was tweaking TalynOne's GPS script. I noticed that he made some registry edits, which worked well for changing battery and backlight timeouts. I don't have time to figure it out now, but if I did, I would start by getting cregedit (http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/?lang=en) and saving a copy of my registry. I would then change the setting to the other one, and compare the current registry to the saved registry. This would show me what key(s) were changed by changing the setting. I would then go about learning how to write a mortscript to change the registry settings. This is the hard part for me but I'm sure it's elementary for the programmers. There are lots of examples on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289197
EDIT: dcd is right, no setting in registry. I'm out of ideas.

i believe that changing the setting sends a command to the radio. notice this setting survives a hard reset? my guess is that you will not find a setting in the registry. need to find a way of scripting epst or sending the command to the radio.
I hope this isn't too terribly off topic, but I really don't want to try this and incur a huge bill.
Does sprint still charge for roaming? Or is that a thing of the past? I remember accidentally making a couple roam calls not not seeing anything on my bill but I don't stay on the phone long to begin with sooooo....yeah.
I guess the main point I'm trying to get to is, are there any negative consequences for making roaming calls?

It is off topic, but it doesn't bother me. Hopefully won't bother others. I have gotten several bills over last 6 months with roaming calls. They reimbursed me because it's included in our plan. I would disable it on the phone and call them and see if they can disable it. If so, then then they will flag your account so if you get roaming charges, they can easily reimburse you.
Try this script - One Touch Toggle
You must have mortscript installed on your ppc in order for the script to work.
There will be two files in this zip.
1. Roaming Shortcut.lnk
2. Roaming Selection.mscr
Place the roaming shortcut.lnk in your \windows directory of pocket pc.
Place the roaming selection.mscr anywhere on your phone. You can tie it to a button if you place it under \Windows\start menu\programs
Run the roaming selection.mscr. It will aks you which of the 4 you would prefer Roaming, Sprint Only, Automatic or Toggle
It will default to Toggle if the time runs out.
Once you make your choice it will open the phone settings by use of the roaming shortcut.lnk.
It will then choose roaming and then it will pick the correct roaming selection and then exit out of both of the phone settings windows.
Before Toggle can be used you must first either select Roaming or Automatic.. from that point on the Toggle selection will go from either
Roaming or Automatic by itself.

Nice script. Great idea. It doesn't work for my Diamond because the screen mappings are for QVGA. I'm currently using your shortcut to at least save a few steps.
I looked at your script, and the Mortscript commands. I think it's a simple matter of remapping the mouse clicks for VGA. How does one go about determing the x and y locations on the screen?
Thanks!

Instead of trying to determine x and y locations, you could just give it commands to go up/down/left/right/center on the d-pad.

All credits go to andason. I took his script and modified it to work with VGA. I remapped the screen coordinates and change the wait time on each action. I found the wait time did not need to be so long.
To use w/ VGA:
Download andason's zip, install as instructed, download my VGA script and replace his with mine. You will still need the .lnk file.
prerequsite:
You must have roaming enabled. If you do not, follow this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\InitProv\PhoneSetting
1) Change ItemCount to 3
2) Create new string (if doesn't exist): ItemName3 = Roaming. (Default = Automatic-B on my Diamond)
3) New Dword: ItemValue3 = 3
Soft reset. Go back to the settings you should now see roaming option.
Enjoy...

I've attached a modified VGA roaming script that simply toggles between Roaming and Automatic without showing the Mortscript choice menu. I have it mapped to a softkey so I can quickly toggle between the two.
andason or snowman,
Installing the zipped files as well as mortscript I get only as far as the Settings menu. I then have to manually toggle to Roaming, Settings and make the change. I made sure to insert the shortcuts file to the windows directory and the .mscr file to the programs folder so that I could shortcut to a button. Any ideas as to why it will not complete the toggle for me. Thanks in advance,
Gordon
I've been looking for something I can put in my startup folder to run when the phone boots to do the opposite. If I change my phone from "Automatic" to "Home Only" as soon as I even soft reset the setting is changed back.
Just recently called Telus to have them remove the roaming data charges ($32 for 4mb!) I got when I was near the border (didn't even cross). The person tried to look into a way to permanently disable roaming and after talking with their data department she said it was impossible and then tried to tell me I should get a BlackBerry.
I'll have to try some of the stuff in this thread later tonight.
With the constant ROM switching (Thank you, devs, SOOOOO much!) I was wondering if it is possible to use the wi-fi protected setup button to set up my connection instead of typing in my passwords. I don't see anything about it in the settings so, is it available?
Aaaand nobody has responded, so I think the answer is no. I was wondering the same thing ... This post is the first Google result that comes up for a relevant search on WPS for the Evo 4G LTE.

That is how I set my EVOLTE up at my friends place. Don't remember the exact process, took me a couple tries before I got it right.
I might suggest getting WIFi Recovery key from the play store. Once your keys are in place you can export and/or share your keys in a plain text file.then you could just copy/paste It does work for me. I'd have 4 different ones to setup.
One thing I did when I switched from my EVO3D was copied the file from it to my new EVOLTE and then copy & paste from the text file.

yes why WPS is available on the htc evo 4G lte

I finally figured it out. Using the same Settings Database Editor app, click on Global settings, then "tether_dun_required 1" and a dialog box opens saying you're not allowed to do so, but to enter a command (it was really long, and I can't remember the exact language) into adb shell.
So I downloaded Android SDK and used the adb shell, and entered the command that popped up. I can now change the tether_dun_required state to "0" which enables the internet. The setting will reset each time you reboot, but you can change the tether dun state at will through the Settings Database Editor.
(You can also use adb shell to directly change tether dun required setting, but for me it reset to 1 each time after reboot, requiring using adb shell each time.)

Quick update
Quick update, I had to FDR my phone due to malware and when I redownloaded settings database editor, the "Tether_entitlement_check_state" was missing from the list of settings. I couldn't redo my hotspot option. So I just copy pasted "Tether_entitlement_check_state" (minus the quotations) where it said " add setting" and the set a value of "0". It changed the setting to "5" but I just reset it to "0" and all is well, hotspot re-activated. Thanks again for everyone's help in this thread, as I wouldn't have even known about this type of option. Now who's got root for H820?
