Ok so I FINALLY managed to upload this tutorial vid for Messager 2 users. Sorry if I'm a little shaky in the speech department. (this is my first tutorial vid let alone the first vid (second part) I ever uploaded!) I had a lot to say so I of course had to split the vid into two parts. (dang youtube time limit...) I tried to explain as much as I could into a way that would be easy to follow but I'm always prone to leaving out stuff. In this part I forgot to say that every time you disconnect from the internet whether its pulling the cable off the phone or the internet connection times out or if you simply disconnect, YOU MUST RETYPE IN THE CODE IN THE ADVANCED SETTINGS TAB OF THE MODEM, ATTEMPT TO CONNECT, DELETE THE CODE, AND CONNECT AGAIN. Essentially you just repeat what I did in the vid. Oh and here's the code at+crm=1;+cmux=1;+cps=33;+cta=0 . I typically have this code as the title of a note pad document and have a shortcut to phone and modems control panel on the desktop for easy access. Here's the link to my topic on howard forums http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1626701-METROPCS-SAMSUNG-MESSAGER-...)

  • Also for anyone who cares, I still intend to do a "redo" of this video. I've been having computer issues so I haven't been able to record and post like I would like. Just be aware that I WILL update this tutorial and possibly try a caliber tethering tutorial as soon as I can find those elusive r860 bin and dll files (if anyone knows where I can find them plz let me know!)

  • hey thanx i get connected but 22 seconds later it disconects

  • @elpantano799

    I think that's because of metro's lousy internet service. Just reconnect again and it should go through. Sometimes you don't even need to retype the "init code"

  • @legendkillermike

    No prob but I know I can do better. I might redo this tutorial sometime soon...

  • @logonwithalex

    Also this is my very FIRST VIDEO! I'm well aware that the presentation is not as good as it can be and I appreciate the criticism. I'm probably gonna redo this vid at a later date

  • @logonwithalex

    This vid is aimed towards people who want to tether their phones to their computer. A person would want to do this if they can't afford an internet connect and need some way (albeit slow) of connecting to the internet. In MetroPCS's case, it provides unlimited internet service (along with other data servies) for $40. Cellphone's web broswers are pretty watered down so tethering your phone to your computer will allow poeple to view things that could be unviewable on thier phones

  • Thanks a lot awesome review.

  • @MegaZoneEXE

    ....O_o Wow I didn't think the phone would even work with bluetooth! I really don't know what tips to give on speed (perhaps clearing out the phone's internet memory? IDK) Could you post a vid on how to do it or explain how you did it? (either here or on howardforums)

    Also for some reason, I haven't been able to get my phone to tether anymore...I hope I didn't break my phone......
