    Put the official Sprint 5.0.0.484 on my Verizon Tour. Works great, with one problematic exception: tethering doesn't work, either via the VZAM client or via Desktop Manager (5.01). It appears to connect just fine, but it then disconnects within 2 seconds. No error, just a disconnect.

    Battery pull, reinstall of VZAM, etc, didn't help anything. Any thoughts? Could it be configured manually as a modem maybe? Could this be happening because there's Sprint-specific code on there - could I remove/swap a COD file via BBSAK or similar?

    Unfortunately I really do need this to work and may have to downgrade to 4.7. Willing to put a hybrid on if it's likely to work; any thoughts or help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks - this convinced me to try a .419-based hybrid. Currently writing this while tethered via Desktop Manager. Must have been something with the Sprint files in the stock .484.
