Must have root to change values with setprop, and I am on a Mac OS without a rndis driver so I could not test your method of USB tethering. Another way, if you have the connectivity service (adb shell service list):
adb shell su -c service call connectivity 34 i32 1 turns on USB tethering.
adb shell su -c service call connectivity 34 i32 0 turns off USB tethering.
Calls public int setUsbTethering(boolean enable) in android.net.IConnectivityManager.
