It sounds like it bothers you that the screen turns off when you are in-call. If so I highly recommend you check out the TICST program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488991

This module will turn the screen off when the phone is up against your face, and turn the screen back one when you take it away from your face. You can also have it turn on the speakerphone when you place the phone face down... there are a few other dialer tweaks available in this little app. Highly recommended.

Using this program in conjunction with TF3D2.1 and the tweak to turn off that stupid phone curtain (the one that covers up the speakerphone button) has me really liking the way my dialer works.
for the most part, the only smart reply in this thread

Re: BORED with my TP

Thanks guys.

btw... TICST pretty much eliminates the need for the curtain that drops down and covers the dialer buttons in TF3D2.1. If you want to get rid of the curtain it's a simple registry tweak:
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\PHONE and edit/create a key called "EnableSlideCover" and set it to dword:00000000, which means disabled. After soft reset it should be gone.

TP-cutie24f, sorry to see you go. Please forgive the stupid people. I completely understand your frustration with the lousy, almost worthless buttons on the phone.

I'd say get a really small, functional flip phone (I miss my monochrome screen!) and keep a touch screen toy on the side. If only I could carry around a purse for all my toys... the all-in one thing these smartphones are trying to do just leaves too many compromises.

I don't understand how anyone here was mean to her. She actually isn't tech savy...the touch pro has send and end keys. She should have gotten an iphone since even a 2 year know how to use it... http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-379330

I actually laugh when you said you missed your monochrome screen...seriously? I agree with one of those who posted a picture of the jitterbug phone that targets seniors. I laughed even harder when you said if you could only carry a purse for all of your toys...could that be an 8th incher with batteries?

The only touch screen toy in my book is the iphone. The touch tro/2 are no toys. Close to mini pcs to me.
