Is this possible? I've googled a little and found that it's possible for HTC devices (there is an option "Internet..." when you connect usb to HTC device). But what about Samsung Galaxy S FroYo? I have only KIES, Media and Mount options available. Thanks in advance.
PS Just want to clear things up - I need tethering inversely.
there are several topics open, with solution about this already
do a little search, and you will find what you need

I cannot seem to figure out how to use my new 8925 as a wireless modem via Bluetooth as I had my 8525.
Via USB it seems to work but I have not had any luck with Bluetooth and of course the AT&T Tech support has no idea.

1, welcome to xda-devs
2, read the Internet Sharing + PAN BT client tutorials. There're several of them - Google for them.
I have solved my own problem. Duno if anyone else has the same issue.
Seems the tilt just comes missing the shortcut to the internet sharing.
If you want Internet Sharing via Bluetooth do the following steps
1- Open File Explorer
2- go to the "\Device\Windows" Folder
3- Touch and Hold on "Internet Sharing" and select COPY
4- Go to "\Device\Windows\StartMenu\Programs" and Touch and Hold and select PASTE
5- Restart Device
6- Enjoy!
you didnt have to copy the whole program, could have just made a shortcut to it.
you should also take a look at wmwifirouter
my XP desktop can't net share via bluetooth either but if i use USB my tilt shares just fine.
couldn't find anything helpful in the guides, just lots of references to the toshiba stack
Just like a any BT accessory, you must make your phone visible & pair it.
If you have a WiFi card on your laptop, try using WMWiFiRouter instead. It has been discussed many times in this forum.

The file "Internet Sharing" was a link, the exe was something along the lines of intshar.exe or something. If you COPY instead of COPY SHORTCUT than your link wont have a pretty icon (its only 26byte file)
btw. wmwifirouter looked kool
[I have searched but not found help on this specific problem]
Hi, I have recently deleted the office partnership to my Tytn II and then updated with the official 6.1 WM ROM.
Now, when I place the Tytn in the USB cradle to connect my XP computer starts a file explorer window and then a small window with a connection request to www.msnusers.com. When this small window is cancelled then a second copy appears. After that is cancelled no further window comes. Then, the activesync starts OK and performs a normal sync.
So, is there a way to stop the file explorer window appearing and then the two msnusers connect windows ??
I have already removed AS 4.5 and re-installed.
Many thanks for tips.
It seems like you have MSN enabled auto connect or something. Have your tried going through MSN Live and see if you can disable it there?
Thanks Prolab
I don't find in Windows Live any autoconnect. I think you're right that something is trying to connect.
I checked my rss readers (egress & newsgator go) and these are not on auto connect.
I guess I will just have to keep hunting this bug.
Regards, D
Hi
Is seems this is a common problem. One solution that seems to work is to delete "My Web Sites on MSN" on the network neighbourhood. There is a lot of hits on google for this.
This stops the msnusers window.
Now I just need to find a way to stop the file explorer window.
watch this space ...
Hi,
I am pretty sure someone already faced this problem, but I could not find the related thread.
Normally if I connect my phone to my PC using USB, I have been asked which kind of connection I would like to have.
I always chose active sync and did not care about the other ones.
Last time I was tried internet connection sharing, that was a bad choice :-(
Since this time the pop up is gone and I have no possibility to switch back to active sync. It always opens the internet connection sharing. I already tried to change the setting in the usb2pc menu, but that does not help.
I am using the ROM "Gen.Y Manila by yozgatg" with TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38658.0 VGA.
Thanks!
AdmiralX
Please. anyone HELP!!
;-)
finally I got to popup back and can select active sync or external disc.
but only the external disc is working, if i select active sync the windows pc is still trying to start the internet connection sharing.
if no one can help, does anyone know a forum where I could get help?
Go into Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC, there you can enable the selection screen again

finally I found a solution, I had to change three different registry keys and deactivate fast data sync (was working with this option enabled before).
hi..is there a way we can choose activesync while fone is locked on password and stop it from going into diskdrive mode?
if you do Twabi2's suggestion the other way around and select acive sync once,
it should be possible.
I see lots of people using their phones to control their computer....
Is there any way to do this the other way around?
Like I wanna use my mouse and keyboard to control my phone
Via bluetooth or some other means?
EDIT: did more searching and found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557717
ive only seen it done on the computer end. i used an app called web key for hero witch will let u completly control your hero from your computers web browser.
yeah that app I linked in the OP looks pretty cool, However my "adb" commands only work from within the Boot menu... I can't do adb devices while my phone is up and running android.
1. how do you copy and paste between apps? how do you bring up the copy and paste feature on the 8.9 honeycomb os? i was using dolphin browser and the copy and paste feature doesn't work.
2. how do you switch between each apps quickly? i know you can bring up the quick app tab, but are there any other shortcut?
3. if your device freeze, how do you do a force reboot?
4. how do you install other languages like chinese on your 8.9 if you don't have those languages?
any other tips that you have or that i'm missing? please fill in. thx in advance.
1. Copying text is simple:
- when within the browser, hold your finger on the text you want to copy and after 1.5 secs or so, the text will be highlited with two markers on each side that you can drag independently to select more or less of the text. Then you can hit the Copy button that appears in the upper right corner of the screen.
- when in other apps, such as gmail, messaging or whatever, you pretty much do the same, hold your finger on the text, highlight, and choose your desired option from the upper right: Select all, Cut, Copy, Paste
2. Switching between apps works only by using the button that you have in the lower left. If you have an external bluetooth keyboard connected though, you can do Alt+Tab and it will bring up a WindowsXP-like selection windows to switch between apps.
3. Hold down the power button without releasing until the Tab goes to black screen. Then release and wait for it to boot again.
4. I do not know of a way to install languages separately. Check your Language and Input settings to see if Chinese is present as a system language. If not, then you can download a China firmware release from www.sammobile.com and manually flash it onto your Tab through the ODIN 1.85 program. Refer to the thread on the top of the General forum, labeled as TOOLKIT.
thx de3pkeeper.

It does not feature an IR module, sorry. You would better research this on google.
Download and install Samsung Kies, the official device management software:
http://www.samsung.com/en/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
Select your language and country, download and install. Then run it and connect via USB.
N.B. You can very easily find the answers of these basic questions in your device's User Manual or Quick Start booklet. N.B.
