Anyone get this working, the old method doesn't work. The computer found the phone and installed the modem. Does the Samsung Focus S have different connection strings?
In the diagnostic screen there are more options than the Samsung Focus:
Zune Sync
Modem, Tethered Call
Modem, USB Diag.
Zune Sync, Modem.
Modem_QC, USB Diag.

internet sharing was loaded by default on my system settings.
Turning it on will trigger AT&T to enable the Tethering Plan. When I turned it on few months back on my Focus AT&T sent me a card within a few days stating they would turn on tethering automatically unless I called to tell them no. I used the USB tethering prior for 6 months with no word from AT&T until the I turned on internet sharing.

That will not prevent it at all. Without that you won't be able to turn it on, but once you do turn it on AT&T will message you saying if you continue you'll automatically be enrolled in a tehering plan.

The exact thing happened to me. I've USB tethered my phone since January no problem and a week or two after trying internet sharing I got the message from AT&T. I figured the internet sharing triggered that but in fear of loosing my unlimited data plan I haven't tethered using either method since. Have you used USB tethering since getting the message with no problem?

Yes, few months with no issues. I called AT&T yesterday and asked if any more "tethering" triggers came through and they confirmed no. I am 100% positive the internet sharing in system settings triggers the plan if you don't pay for one.
The USB method that original worked for the Samsung Focus doesn't work on Samsung Focus S. I have tried on 3 different computers that worked previously; I can easily connect my Samsung Focus but receive dial-up error 628 or error 619 on the Focus S, the strings have be different. The main reason I upgraded was the 4G speeds which are amazing on this phone.
I have uninstalled all the drivers, deleted the modem and reinstalled with no problems. I just can not get past the error. We need to get us new Samsung Focus S owners our modem back

I think I changed too many settings in my modem which caused me to uninstall everything. Hopefully the quick route will work for most people! I am glad you got it working! I have never had AT&T notify me this way, only using the Mango tethering option.
Hopefully we can add this to a sticky and under the Samsung Focus S section when it is up and running.

Good job. The Samsung Focus S forum needs to go up soon!
Hello is there any way to make usbthetering on Omnia7 available? wolud be very nice
Have you tried following the same steps used for the Focus / Focus S?
Alternatively, have you tried a search?
USB tethering for all gen1 devices, even things like the DVP which otherwise have very little homebrew, has been known for many months. I don't recall if you had to tweak it slightly for the Omnia7 or not, but I don't think so.

Hmm, I seem to have a problem. I get the phone set to "Modem, Tethered Call" no problem, but when I plug the phone into the computer the install new hardware wizard fails with the message that it "can't find the necessary software."
Any ideas?

That did the trick. Using my phone as a modem right now... thanks!
Are the instructions in this forum so that I can use my 3G connection on my Samsung Focus S by my laptop that doesn't have Internet?
Or is it the other way around so that I can use my laptop's Internet connection so that my phone will be able to have Internet as well - just by connecting to the USB port?
I'm assuming it's for the former but I'd also like it if someone could point me to the latter.
It's for the former. For the latter, that's built-in; just connect the phone to the computer by USB and start the Zune software. It will create an Ethernet connection over USB for the phone to use, off of the PC's Internet connection. You could also use Internet Connection Sharing from the PC over WiFi, and connect the phone to that (it may help to use software that causes the PC's WiFi to appear as an access point; I'm not sure if the phone supports Ad-Hoc networks).

Awesome! I didn't know that Ethernet connection over USB was able just by having Zune and the Windows Phone. Tried it and it works great!
Would that only work with Windows Phone or any other phones/devices I use while Zune is running?

Hi,

Are you trying to say that your phone always connects to your computer as a USB device even if you select something different?
Sounds like it.
I've got a similar issue, my screen is dead so I can't select anything and it comes up as a disk drive. Kinda need to get it to active sync so I can back the phone up to restore to my new one.
Without being able to see or use the screen I can't, unless there is a keyboard method to choose activesync.
when I connect htc (with USB) to PC, appears this option selection:
(whatch the image to the link)
farm3.static.flickr.com/2007/4514994648_92afa7bd15.jpg
now, if I select the option disk-drive,
don't start option disk-drive but activesync because is preselect in menu "SETTING-> USB to PC"
(whatch the image to the link)
farm5.static.flickr.com/4060/4496803689_c5ace06880.jpg

This is not the correct behavior.
So it seems like it works properly if you have the preselection set as "diskdrive" One option could be to just leave it set there.
A common problem though, and is probably what is giving you trouble, is the checkbox "enable faster data syncronization". Frequently, this just doesn't work out (not sure why) and the computer can not establish an active sync connection. The ppc or activesync self corrects by defaulting to a diskdrive connection.
uncheck the "enable faste data syncronization" box in settings, restart your phone and pc (verify the box is still unchecked after restart) and try the active sync again. Let us know how it goes... good luck.

Tried with the faster data box and without, mine starts active sync...which I want and need, it lasts for about one minute, then it disconnects and can no longer recognize the device unless I shut down the computer and do it again....but it just repeats this same things every time.

There might be typo ("Advance" instead of "Advanced" ?) or is the cab I made not good for my machine (TP2) ?

Thanks a lot
I rooted my Droid Incredible today using Unrevoked's one-click rooting process. The whole purpose of doing so was so I could use the wireless tethering feature. However, now that I have successfully rooted the device, I cannot get ANY application to work. I have used numerous programs found within the Android Market (Barnacle, etc etc) and have also tried the tether application that comes pre-installed with Android 2.2.
When I activate the wireless tether, the wireless network does not appear so other devices can connect to it.
I have searched the forums inside and out. I have tried the ##778 method suggested in this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752687 and it did not fix my problem.
Any and ALL help is deeply appreciated! Thanks in advance for your time.

I checked that thread you mentioned and it didn't seem very thorough. Here's something that I wrote on Android Forums that works for non-rooted Incredibles:
This works great on my Incredible. No rooting required, but you must have the 2.2 update which enables the 3G Mobile Hotspot on the device.
1. Select "Phone"
2. Dial "##778"
3. Select "Edit Mode" on pop-up dialog box
4. Enter "000000" for Please Enter Password (unless you manually changed your password to something else)
5. Select "Security"
6. Select "S.IP DUN User Name"
7. Delete the "dun." part of the number (ie: it should read as: [yourmobilenumber]@vzw3g.com)
8. Select "OK"
9. Press the "BACK" button
10. Select "M.IP Default Profile"
11. Select "DUN NAI"
12. Delete the ".dun" part of the number (ie: it should read as: [yourmobilenumber]@vzw3g.com)
13. Select "OK"
14. Press the "MENU" button
15. Select "Commit Modifications"
16. The phone will reset
17. Once booted, go into "All Programs", select the "3G Mobile Hotspot", Adjust your "Router Name" and "Password" (if you desire, but recommmended), and change the security to WPA(TKIP) (this is the only setting I've tried so far-other posts said the WPA2 is buggy)
18. Select "3G Mobile Hotspot - Press to turn on" (It will prompt you that you need the Verizon Mobile Hotspot Feature- just hit "Do not remind me again" and "OK") (Also, I am using Windows 7x64, and the wifi picked up the signal right away, but it took a moment to identify-but it connected to the internet cleanly and the connection is fast).
It can't hurt.

don't use the verizon wifi hotspot application. you need to install the corresponding kernel (Hydra stock undervolt is a good one for Sense) and Wireless Tether.apk to get it to work properly.

I ran unrevoked, rooted my Incredible, and installed Wifi Tether and it has been working flawlessly for me. I didn't do anything with a custom kernel.
What I had to do to get the app to work, is I had to go grab an older version of wifi tether from the developers site and install the apk manually. After that, the newer market version started to work properly.
is ##778 a sense only thing? when I call that or ##778+ on miui I just get a call cannot be completed message

All I did was run unrevoked and then get the wifi tether app.
Same here
Ran unrevoked then wireless tether-works great
Also did #778 - works fine too (only about 500k on either one)
huh, must have fixed the issue with the kernel since the last update. i remember that was one of the first things i did when i rooted was get the wireless tether working and i had to download Hydr kernel to get it going.

Can someone explain how to do it? Tried the HW Virtual Serial Port but can't get that working either. Hit ##DIAG and still it does not show up in QPST.... Any help? Thanks!
1) Download/install QPST (google it)
2) Put phone in modem mode (Settings, Wireless, Enable Dial Up)
3) Run QPST Configuration on your computer
4) Add the port if it doesn't show up (go to Ports then click on Add New Port. Uncheck "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic Ports Only". When you see your phone you can add it).
5) Once you see your phone in QPST go to the Menu, Start service programming.
6) Click "read from phone" (password is 000000)
7) Tab over to M.IP
8) Change the profile 1 under M.IP to enable and change tethered NAI to [email protected].
9) Change the profile 0 from [email protected] to [email protected] (just like for profile 1).
10) Click "write to phone"
You don't need qpst to change that.

but to answer your specific question, I would first reload your drivers. I think htc sync has them for ##diag mode.
yep almost always a driver issue.
i would root and use the link provided. probably much easier.
Genius! That worked great silverramsrt! Thanks so much!

Just to resume a lot of questions regarding this subject. There is a list of steps to get your 3G data connection shared with yout PC via USB for each device.
--== HTC HD7 ==--
1. Download XAP file
2. Download the HTC USB Modem drivers
3. Deploy XAP file to your phone
4. Turn off your Data connection in your phone.
5. Run DFRouter and click on “HTC Modem”
6. If you only downloaded driver package just unzip to any folder, then Open Device Manager (recommended for Win7 64bit).
7. Find USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0EFF&REV_0000&MI_01 and force update driver with HtcUsbMdmV64 (inside unzipped folder)
8. Find USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0EFF&REV_0000&MI_00 and force update driver with HtcVComV64 (inside unzipped folder)
9. You will get two new device HTC USB Modem and HTC Diagnostic Interface (COM8)
10. Connect device to PC, open HTC USB Modem and select Advance Label
11. Add below command +cgdcont=1,”ip”,”APN”
(APN = Your carrier’s APN)
12. Create a new connection with HTC USB Modem, diag number is *99# and disabling IPV6
13.Just connect without user name and password.
============================================================
--== Dell Venue Pro ==--
1. Download the HTC USB Modem drivers
2. Edit both HtcUsbMdmV64.inf and HtcVComV64.inf files from the extracted drivers replacing the HTC device IDs with VID_05c6&PID_3199. Leave the &MI_00.
3. Go to EM(##634#), and go to Service Center, swithcing to Composite Mode. The password is *#301#.
4. After the fone reboots, install the 2 modified device drivers as you would do in HTC tutorial.
4. Continue following the HTC guide from step 9.
============================================================
--== Samsung WP7 Devices ==--
1. Download Samsung USB Drivers and install it
2. Dial ##634# then press the Call button
3. On diagnosis screen, Dial *#7284# and press Call button
4. A “Microsoft USB Test” screen will show up which allows configuration of USB Path Control settings (options available is Zune Sync; Modem, Tethered Call; and Modem, USB Diag). Select Modem, Tethered Call. The phone will restart and activate the setting. Windows will detect and install the driver from the device. A phone modem named Samsung Mobile Modem will be installed.
5. Now you can create a connection dial-up on your windows as step 9 in HTC HD7 tutorial.
============================================================
--== LG WP7 Devices ==--
1. Download LG USB Drivers and install it
2.Launch the LG phone dialer, and dial ##634#, then press the Call button to bring up a list of applications under the screen title of “MFG”.
3.When asked to input password, enter 277634#*# to unlock the password-protected MFG.
4.Turn off the data connection in Settings -> Network Mobile.
5.Start MFG and go to the USB Switching option in Menu Engineer -> Port Setting.
6.Select the QC COMPOSITE and validate.
7.The phone will automatically restart to activate the setting.
8.Connect the phone to PC with a USB cable.
9.Windows should automatically detect the Windows Phone 7 and install driver from the device. A phone modem named LGE CDMA USB Modem will be installed.
10.Edit or configure the LGE CDMA USB Modem settings or properties, and add in additional parameter in the string (change APN for your APN name):
+CGDCONT=1,"IP","orange"
11.Manually create a new dial-up connection that uses the LG USB modem with phone number to dial as * 99 # as HTC HD7 tutorial.
============================================================
While tethering via USB, the synchronization with Zune software may not be working. In this case, just disconnect the USB cable and connect over Wi-Fi connection to sync up with Zune software. And the disclaimer is that the hack violates most mobile carrier’s terms of service, and may cost users a lot of money for overage charge if they’re on limited data plan.
Also, I didn't tested all devices cause I just have a HTC HD7 and all information here was a compilation from some blog bosts I found over the web. I hope moderators can stick it somewhere so people can stop creating new posts regarding this subject 'cause I'll keep this post updated and, when the WIFI/BT/Cableless tethering comes UP, I'll update it here.
I hape it help. Enjoy it.
Best regards...

thanks this is great but we need internet connection sharing over usb, bt, or wifi
when our carriers can see us dialing up and charge us, well that is just not right
and i will not stand for it, nor will i pay for it lol

Yep, I still working on figure out how to do this. If there is a way to open a socket on the phone and listen on some ports, I can quickly do that.
Also, you will only be billed from your carrier if you dont have a illimited data plan. At least, I'm not charged from nothing and run just fine.
Thanks a lot for compiling all this information and getting it to us. One question though. Do you have to update drivers on each pc you want to tether with? Also, think the link to the HTC USB Drivers is wrong
I've been following this thread for two days now (in the HD2 WP7 forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000) but so far I'm not able to get my HD7 going with 3G tethering (always return error code of 692 despite me having to turn off the data connection in phone and having forced update the two drivers from HTC Sync for Android).
See if anyone else can get it going on HD7...
same here cannot download the second file...

Yes, every PC that you are connecting the phone, you will need the USB driver. And sorry about the link. I already fixed it.

In my modem log, I'm getting the following:
01-27-2011 13:44:30.317 - Opening Modem

I've already put the extra initialization command into the modem advanced properties, under "Device Manager", and properties of the "HTC USB Modem"..
Maybe the format of my string is something wrong? I'm using this:
+cgdcont=1,"IP","mobile.three.com.hk"

Okay, just to report back, it is now working properly. After some messing around - by not enabling (unchecking) the dial-up properties of IPV6 (so left with IPV4), connectivity went through flawlessly.
thanks everyone!
Awesome.
i have dialed up with my cell before (through windows on my htc diamond) and i was charged. telus sucks yes i know. i have not tried with my lg optimus but i bet they can see...
whats my telus APN name?
+cgdcont=1,"IP","telus" ???
ill test this and report back
The APN field is you APN name configured on your device. Not the APN Address.
In my case here in Brazil it is "TIM CONNECT FAST" so my command should be +cgdcont=1,"IP","TIM CONNECT FAST"

Good! Let me update with this results
I'm stumped. Tried the APN address, the APN names, with data on/off, with APN in the cellular settings and without, IPV6 off etc. and nothing. Perhaps it's a T-Mobile US problem? Because I've tried the APN names "T-Mobile" and "T-Mobile US" and still get the 692 error...Any suggestions?
Ok. Now this is weird. I did nothing differently except I accidentally clicked USB Sync before I clicked HTC Modem on DFRouter and the connection went through. Hmm...
Success
Finally i got it working on my HTC-HD7 (Windows 7 x64 Prof).
The one thing a would like to add is I configured the "PPP" settings in the adapter settings (let ony LCP checked) but i don't think this was the breakthrough.
After some play-around in settings (PPP on pc for example, disable Wifi/Wlan on phone) I managed to get the Error "668" instead of "692", also data connection was disabled. Restarting the phone made it work!
Just make sure to have the right driver installed and restart your phone after disabling the data connection that helped for me!
Remember to disable IPv6.
I use the "*99#" number and +cgdcont=1,"ip","internet"
for o2 germany apn
Edit: Let the default COM port.. I didn't change the COM port and it works now.. If you changed then delete the devices from device manager and start from the beginning
good luck
reddragon
how is everyone dialing *99#? are you calling using your computer or your dialpad on WP7's?
t-mobile us settings hd7
alright after a lot of hours trying here and there i finally set up my connection from tmobile hd7 usa.
on the advance tab (to get there after installing the drivers and device on usb modem mode go to to device manager then modems then right click usb modem then properties then advance tab) put there copy and paste +cgdcont=1,"IP","wap.voicestream.com"

3. You are already connected to the Internet - Click on "Set up a new connection anyway"
4. At "How do you want to connect?" Click on "Dial-up"
5. Check only the Standard Modem (if prompted).
6. Give the connection a name such as "BlackBerry Modem", then Next.

You dial with your computer, where you set up the dial up connection.
Aditionaly for everyone with 32Bit Systems (like me...) who have troubles finding the drivers, take these from this post:

It got it to work with my HTC Mozart 7 and german provider "BASE".
Now I'm curious how this is charged by the provider..... hope this is covered by my dataconnection flat.

Hi there, I am using CM7 RC1v2 on my motorola defy. I am facing a problem which whenever i connect my phone to windows using phone portal the usb tether cnt be checked. But when i connect using "charge only" the things become available again but i still could not connect. Anybody face this problem and can help me to solve it? Thx very much!
Phone portal run on specific IP number and it uses different port and this explain why USB tether won't run.
I'm using it and here's my steps.
AFAIK, the pc required the USB tether driver for it to run properly. It should automatic install of the required driver. Once the driver is installed, you could perform a few steps here. I'm using Windows 7
1) Goto Control Panel - Network and Sharing Center - Change Adaptor settings.
2) Disable any active Local Area Connection if there are any of them running
3) Enable the one USB tether(it might already enabled by default but you could double check it).
4) It will auto verifying and connect once it done verified.
5) Start your internet browser and enjoy(you may need to do: Internet Option - Connections - Lan Settings - Unchecked proxy server .

I have tried following ur steps but it still can't work. My pc was able to install all the driver except that when installing MTP USB driver, it failed.
