I'm not sure either...*smile*. It works for me, and I think at least one or two other people are using it too. Can you be more specific about any problems, error messages, or symptoms? All I can say is, try try again, following the instructions carefully. You should have Mortscript installed, and you should have the .mscr file in your /Windows/startup folder, and soft-reset the phone. It really "just works". If you go to the task manager and choose processes, you should see the mortscript running in the background using 0 to 1% CPU (depending on whether it happens to be checking your registry when the task manager refreshes). If you have other utilities installed that affect backlight settings, that might be causing a conflict (like a profile manager or something - just guessing here).

What's driving me even more crazy these days is the fact that every time I try to take the phone out of the holster to answer a call, before I can answer the call another window/screen appears. It's quite random, never the same screen twice.

Are you using the built-in WM6.5 sliding key lock and locking the phone before you put it in your holster (just turning the phone off does not lock the buttons unless you set the correct option in settings *and* install a locking program). WinMo is quirky, but I don't think I've ever experienced different screens opening randomly. Then again my phone is always locked to prevent pocket calls. A key lock is an absolute must with any WinMo phone, particularly one with 30+ buttons all over the front of the case.

Another thing I'm having problems with is a very inconsistent syncing with the hands free mobile device in my car (motorola t505). It worked well with the old flip phone but not so with the intrepid. Any thoughts/tips on these issues?

That doesn't surprise me. Bluetooth on the Intrepid STINKS. It is one of the worst bluetooth implementations I have ever seen on a mobile phone. Constantly turns off, fails to recognize devices, etc. Such is life, when you are a fan of the qwertybar form factor...you are stuck with whatever bone the carriers choose to throw at you. I hate to say it but it will probably never improve. To this day, I get random disconnects from my headset during phone calls, and when I paired my phone to my wife's car and turned off the car, the bluetooth radio on the phone turned itself off. WTF?
If you're really unhappy you could try to explain all these issues to a Sprint rep, see if they'll have some mercy on you and let you try out a different phone. The other option is to buy a different phone on Ebay.
