"Internet Share" I miss you!

[tomcat777]

I updated to Faria's AKU 3.2 and loved it........I do mean loved it! Then I started missing the calls and voicemails. I pressed on and reflashed everything............started missing calls again. I had so fell in love with the rom and the internet share. I finally with much regret had to go back to the 2.3. I miss the "Internet Share" feature that was on the 3.2. I am have to use my phone on my laptop quiet a good bit and you can understand how depressing this has been. I sure wish we had a working 3.2 or 2.3 with internet sharing. I know Faria's coming out with something.....praying and hoping in Cingular land.

Tomcat,

The 2.3/2.6 Roms have the same program. It is called something different in those ROMS, but still allows you to connect your phone to your PDA. The only difference between the two is that the 2.3/2.6 ROMS allow USB or IR connections while the 3.x+ roms add Bluetooth as an option.

The program is called "Modem Link" I just build a new media center pc and I didn't have any way of connecting it to the net so I was using that and it worked like a charm. I connected it through the USB, used this driver http://www.pdagold.com/files/articles/en/0000000269_HCxN12752.zip

Oh and Faria glad to hear your on top of the missed call issue, that and those cool looking crossbow icons are 2 things I'm really looking forward to, Godspeed :D

Yes, I used the modem link before going to faria 3.2 and I have gone back to it now, but the two are not even in the same ballpark. With the "internet share" all I had to do was simply plug in my phone and bam! With the "modem link", I have to make sure my phone is now hooked to the internet (I have direct push activated). if I don't do this, it might take longer for the "link" to happen. I then have to dial in with the modem.....blah...blah....blah! As stated once you haave experienced the "internet share".................WOW!

True enough, it's a world of difference, I wonder how hard it would be to port internet share to AKU 2.3? actually scratch that, that's time better spent working on getting 3.2 working perfectly.

Modem Link and Internet Sharing both have their advantages and disadvantages. Please read the AKU3 Networking Bible at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282780 - in there, I'ce explained EVERYTHING about all these issues. (And please DO follow my articles... I post them all to the General forum on purpose - so that they are read and people profit from them. Keep an eye on the General forum.)
