anyhow, and the connection switcher started to act wierd, and my phone started to act the same (and slowed 200%...) so i uninstaled all apps needed for that,... i will try to do that some other time, but will shure tell you if i manage to do on Win
thank you for reply BJ!
Hmm.. well it doesn't create the Dummy Network automatically, so that could be the problem

When you installed the libicd (dummy network) file, in the terminal output it should have detailed the commands you need to enter to create the Dummy Network and enable autoconnect:

Add dummy network
Code:
gconftool-2 -s -t string /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/type DUMMY

gconftool-2 -s -t string /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/name 'Dummy Network'
Make ICD2 autoconnect with
Code:
gconftool-2 -s -t boolean /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/autoconnect true
(note: those commands should be entered all on one line even if the forum makes it look like they're on two lines..)

When you get around to trying again, be sure to enter those commands right after you install the libicd file. Then restart the N900, you should see "Dummy Network" under your list of internet connections.

Hope that works for you!
