I am using myhero 1.1.2 with kernel 2.6.27. The flashed Magic is able to connect with HTC Sync software running on my laptop.
However, after turning on Mobile Network Sharing, my laptop can only detect an unrecognized USB device but not a NDIS network interface, which I searched on web that should be installed in order for tethering to work. I tried installing the NDIS driver that comes with the HTC Sync software but no luck.
Does anyone work with USB tethering on Magic with Hero ROM successfully? Thanks a lot.

maybe the bluetooth in the phone show up as bluetooth modem when you connect in which case a driver maybe generic and already a part of windows
no it is not generic and already a part of windows.
i try to connect to winxp , it also ask to install the driver
Ive tried to connect my Hero to my laptop to use it as a modem, but it isn't working. Ive tried to enable mobile network and internetsharing. Looks like I don't have the NDIS driver. How do I fix this. I have the newest version of htc sync.
Hi Killbox,
I tried for hours and hours to get it to work and couldn't so I gave up in the end.
I tried every driver I could, everything was set up to sync properly on my phone/laptop, NDIS driver installed. No joy.
Try getting hold of the WiFi Tether .apk file and install it on your Hero.....or install Modaco's Custom Hero Rom on your phone. It has WiFi Tether included and it's a damn quick rom
It's a piece of cake to use. Once installed on your phone, fire up the app and 'Start Tethering'. Once running, see if your PC will pick it up as a wireless network point. If it does, connect to it and you should be using your phones 3G network for the internet on your PC.
Job done!

If the NDIS driver isn't loaded, you will have a device called "Android Phone" in Device Manager. You need to manually update the driver with the NDIS driver, which can be found wherever you installed HTC sync (in my case, C:\Program Files\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Vista_x86).

I tried to reinstall the driver from device manager by choosing update manually. It said the newest driver was allready installed. I tried to install Modaco, but I just got error messages so I gave up. Is it really impossible to share internet?
Works fine here with orange updated Rom, do what Dave said, as I couldn't get it to work until I went rooting around the HTC folder, 1 thing though my HTC sync never works unless I reboot my phone and sync straight after startup.
Now I have installed the Modaco rom, but it still won't work. Have tried to update the driver in the device manager without success. The tether program won't work either.
Im using PDANet 1.16 with Android for tethering, works flawlessly, give it a try.
I have usb tethering on my phone... I turned it on. How do I get it to work though on the computer? Thanks
Moved as not Android development.
Works fine for me running SL anda tiger server
I have Snow Leopard (and Win 7). With Cyanogen's ROM how do I get tethering working? Do I need to do anything on the computer to get the internet tethering working? Thanks
I'm on 10.6.2 running CM5.0.3.1 and I can't figure out how to get tethering to work. I enable tethering and connect it to my MacBook, but nothing happens. I go to network under preferences and I don't get any ethernet connections and no options.
Is there some driver I need to install? Does anybody have USB tethering working under Snow Leopard?
On my Windows 7 machine Windows automatically detected and installed the appropriate driver and I was good to go.

I am lokking forward to solve the same problem. I have seen that deice with android 2.3.2 have the possibility to connect to internet through
the usb connection of the PC, so I was thinking to update my device (It has Android 2.2) to 2.3.2.
Do you think it is the only way to sove the problem? Thank you
Suggestions are welcome.
Your trying to connect your phone to the internet via the phones USB socket ? You could use a usb wifi adapter on the PC and set it up as a access point. I think Win7 has this built in or use ubuntu ?
Yes, I would like to connect my HTC Legend (android 2.2) to the internet via the usb socket without any wifi adapter. Phones with android 2.3.2 allow that (when you connect them to a PC you can choose that option), my doesn't.
I was wondering if there is any program allowing that or if I have to update my ROM to android 2.3.2.
Thank you for your suggestion. It can be useful anyway.
Sense 2.1 has internet passthrough via HTC Sync, but since I don't use the NewSense ROM, I personally use Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop.

Hi,
It seems that I've searched everywhere and tried everything, but I'm unable to get USB tethering to work.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding of how it should work between Windows 7 64bit and Typhoon's CM7 Android running on the HTC HD2:
Phone Side:
Wired tethering is already available as an option, so simply enable USB tethering by ticking Settings -> Wireless and network settings -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> USB tethering
Windows Side:
Install the correct ADB driver for the HTC HD2. Does this create a new network adapter? I'm assuming a internet connection starts automatically as soon as tethering is enabled on the phone (and this runs via the network adapter)
When I connect the phone via USB, windows is unable to automatically find a driver. Apparently windows already comes prepackaged with a RDNIS driver, but this doesn't seem to work. The phone shows up in device manager under "Other devices" and is listed as "ADB" with a yellow exclamation mark. Where do I find the correct driver to use, and what happens after I've installed the driver. Is it true that the process is automatic, or do I need to right click on the installed adapter and click connect?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,
Regards,

Is nobody using USB tethering on Win7 64?

Hey. I haven't been able to get native USB teathering to work. U can use a app to make it work that seems to be the only way as of now. If you search my posts I posted the apk file.

In the past I've had to search on google for the ADB driver but cannot remember where i found it since I couldnt find it again but a friend just brang their desire hd over and windows 7 found the driver straight away, do u know anyone who would borrow u their android device?
dunno if this helps

Thanks for the replies.
I've already installed the Google USB driver (from the developer site listed above). The phone shows up and the ADB driver is installed.
I've also tried installing the wired tethering apk from google apps. It is currently at version 1.4.
HOWEVER, I still don't understand how this is supposed to work as the ADB driver is not listed under networking devices. Surely you need a network driver to able to establish a connection. What am I not understanding?

Hey, just built a new PC for a friend and tried sharing my internet connection using easytether which didnt work because the pc didnt have the correct adb driver. My friend then installed HTC Sync (for her Desire HD) and windows found an adb driver in there. Now the native tethering & easytether on my phone works.
Now I'm not too sure if htc sync has ANYTHING to do with this, or if the driver was downloaded from her desire hd (usb was plugged in already) but I guess you could try downloading htc sync and see what happens.
