There are no proven methods yet (that I know of) Now that we can unlock the phone, we can start looking for a method to make it happen.

My first suggestion would be to Google 'LG Touch tether'.. it might help to add in -env3 and -env. Next suggestion would be to dig through these two threads at howards and take note of all the useful info for tethering:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Third suggestion, and possibly the most useful, would be to adapt this info:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Just a couple of gems I've been hanging on to until I get around to looking into it. Good luck!

P.S. Somebody (hint-hint!) should start a thread here specifically related to tethering the Rumor Touch!

I have tried the pdf viewing to make the phone unresponsive but it seems that the phone loads them all up fine. There is no delay

You need to use a big pdf I use a 192 mb file it takes for ever to open.

So I am entirely new to this but I find it rather fascinating. My theory on phones until recently was that if I could easily find a charger for it, it was good enough. An Android changed all of that for me but it went into the Snake River along with what was left of my last relationship. The droid broke the camels back... Back to my VM510. I've tried so many variations of this that by now I think I'm dedicating at least a gig to LG software parts. I'm running XP. It's device manager "tree" doesn't want to let me dedicate any driver to any port for any length of time.I've tried every order of installing and uninstalling the driver software and it still says No Port. AND regardless of the size of Pda file I try to open (I added ninety copies of a 197 Mg pdf file to my Ebooks) the phone immediately asks if I want to disallow voice calls while it connects to my PC.... I've yet to see anything change on the LG edit screen. I WILL PROSPER. ..... with a little help? anyone? I even used the Modem helper to open the driver addition 3.6 where it has taken up residency. I'm sure I sound like 100% Noob to you all but I'm not quite to the point where I drop that N in exchange for a B...
