Can anyone post the Hero's internet sharing USB drivers for XP? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Can anyone post the Hero's internet sharing USB drivers for XP? Or where to find it? I need it. Please....
After it has been installed, the OS device manager name will be "HTC remote NDIS based device" like this.....

The hero does not support internet sharing. netiher does the magic or the G1.
Are you thinking of Windows mobile devices??

what is this option for?
settings--wireless controls -- mobile network sharing (at the bottom)
To enable mobile network sharing, please plug in the cable?

You just need to download and install the HTC Sync from this page:
http://www.htc.com/hero/m/en/downloads/htcsync.html
the last 2 lines of the install instructions states:
(During the installation, a modem driver software for your phone will also be installed. It allows you to share your phone’s Internet connection to your computer when you do not have Internet access on your computer.)

this file is also on the sd card!

Well bugger me backwards, I stand corrected!
Has anyone actually got it to work though?

just tried it and it actually seems to work!
Once htc sync was installed from http://www.htc.com/hero/m/en/index.html it installed the network adapter and all seemed well apart from no traffic.
disabled sharing and started it again and all started going flawlessly.
maybe a little slow, but enough in a pinch.

Does anyone know if this will flag up on the operators system as tethering?
With 3gb allowance per month I can't use that all on mobile browsing!

It depends on the network.
I currently am using it on a three mobile sim with the 5 pounds a month 'unlimited' mobile browsing add on.
works fine and i have been using that sim in a USB modem for the last three months, so even if they can, it depends on whether the network actually cares or not!
I know that my t-mobile sim with W&W+ allows me to do it no problems as well, although i don't think you're allowed to on the standard w&w plans. Don't know about their new 'unlimited' flext plans.

How to get PPC online internet when use with bluesoliel v5.0.5?
It's was very easy in v3.2.2.8, just check the option "ACCESS LAN NETWORK", then PPC can use the share connection from PC. unforturnely, v3.2.2.8 seemed not stable and makes my PC reboot frequently...
When upgrade to v5.0.5, that option was not found. And could not get on share internet connection anymore... Anyone can help on this?
Thanks.

FREE Internet thru another mobile via Bluetooth

Hi All
I wonder if any of you geniuses can help me with this query
I am using an HTC Touch Diamond with a NON DATA Enabled sim card, this is my personal sim card and account. I also have a Blackberry Pearl 8120 (I hope that isnt a swear word in these forums), anyway this is my work phone and I have an unlimited email & Internet DATA package on this sim card.
I want to know if I can SOMEHOW connect my Touch Diamond to the internet through the Blackberry using bluetooth? I am certain this must be possible, anyone got any ideas.
Also on a slightly different thread, My Touch diamond is all in French as I am currently living in Morocco but I would love to change the windows system language to English, is there a way to do this in settings on the device or do I need to flash the device with an ENGLISH ROM?? Tips on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Check and see if blackberry has an application like wm wifi router (windows mobile).
I have an ATT Tilt with unlimited data. I use the tilt, with WM Wifi Router as a wireless access point. I then connect all kinds of stuff to it, like my ipod touch, my laptop, other wifi phones.
It might be hard finding an application like this for Blackberrys.
if it were me, i would take the sim card out of the blackberry and put it in the diamond.. problem solved.
however if that solution does not work for you then the above advice is the best you'll get
How about ditch the blackberry and get a dual sim card holder and cut up your sim cards and put both in the holder then put it in your diamond problem solved and use the diamond for work and personal. So kill 2 birds with 1 stone. You can carry 1 phone around, but have the best of both worlds.

I think dual sim is what he meant.
Something like this:

I think he just meant: just swapping the sims, then he could just use the data plan on the diamond

anyone ?
Me thinks Vista Home doesn't allow incoming remote desktop connections. Ultimate & Business versions do.
Remote Desktop Connections allows other PCs to connect to your PC and those PC has to have Remote Desktop Clinte installed on them to connect to the desired PC.
I think that this clint is not availble for Windows Mobile phones.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/...le-remote-desktop-in-windows-xp-home-edition/
To enable remote desktop on a XP Home.
Should be usefull to many people.
i am not familiar with Vista, so the option may be on a different tab or else where. but remote assistance is NOT remote desktop. for reference, here's a shot of windows XP. But i blieve milan_ns is right. Vista Home doesn't have this feature. just like XP Home doesn't have this feature. only the "Pro" version of the windows have it. I guess in Vista's case it's Business or Ultimate.
and to the earlier poster (wail_gsm) who said client is not available for windows mobile, please do not guess. obviously you do not have a touch hd in hand. remote desktop'ing on HD's big screen is awesome.
What Version of Vista
What version of Vista are you running.. if you are not using Vista Business or Vista Ultimate... you cannot RDP to the computer as all other versions have cut out this functionality...
has anyone tried logmein?

Do you have an Intel WiFi card? If not, which brand WiFi card is in your notebook?

If your Lenovo has an Intel WiFi card and you're using Microsoft Windows, make sure you are using Intel drivers version 13.1.1.1 and nothing older.
Then do the following on your Nexus One:
1. Install the latest version of android-wifi-tether (as of this posting).
2. Start "Wireless Tether for Root Users".
3. Once the program has started up, hit the "Menu" button.
4. Select "Setup".

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
​
5. While in "Setup", hit the "Menu" button again and select "(Re)-Install binaries/configs".
​
6. You should get a confirmation that the binaries & configs were re-installed similar to this:
​7. At this point, scroll down the "Setup" menu and find "Change LAN" and change it to something different from the default, for good measure. My example shows 10.10.3.0/24 which is an option towards the bottom of the scroll view.
​8. Try first with WEP off to see if it'll connect to your Lenovo or iPad. It should work at this point.
Good luck!

Interesting feature of the EVO 4G

Saw this when I first plugged in the device, but never got around to taking screenshots until today. As far as I know, this is a new feature on the EVO 4G, but may just be a new feature of the 2.1 Sense interface. I last used the HTC Hero on 1.5, so I'm not sure.
Either way, there's this cool interface you're presented with when plugging in the phone - asking you what you want to do. This is very similar to the Palm Pre's options when plugging in. Upon further investigation, this is actually an "application" called PC Synchronization. Here's some screenshots:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
had those options for 3 months or so on Hero.
PC Sync is just HTC Sync.

yes, it's quite easy with the Internet Sharing option
I 've had the same options minus 1 on my touch pro. Of course it was running a custom rom but still , nothing new .
Yep, same here on the Touch Pro 2. When you plugin, you are asked if you want to run ActiveSync, Disk Drive, or Internet Sharing. This is on the mostly stock ROM.
very old option for rooted hero users =P
So, the question is, for an EVO, does the USB Internet Sharing cost anything? I never saw anything about it or was offered/requested to pay for "tethering", only the $30 wifi hot spot.

you will get error 67 on both "internet sharing" and the "mobile hotspot" apps on the stock rom and with most rooted roms... it can be hacked tho, i know because it was done on the hero
