Thanks a bunch horndoctor
1. I tried SKTools and it certainly does the trick, thanks!
2. Actually right after posting I found Rhodium KB Control app from xda developers
3. Gonna search more on it in the coming days before trying, indeed...
4. Did a backup with SKTools, will be checking into Sashimi this week, read many good things of it...
Few more questions! 
5. With TF3D, when I am in the Phone dialer and end a call, it goes back to the phone screen for about a second or two and then always back to the Home screen (doesn't do this with any other stuff, I did that disable lock regedit so that all other apps stay even after coming back from standby, etc.). How can I stop this?
6. In the TF3D Contacts, it shows all names but no numbers below/beside them in a small font, as it does in the standards WM Contacts. Any way to get that going? I'm guessing registry somewhere...
7. I ran SKTools and did a few cleanup/optimize things, and now when I re-added my computer in Bluetooth as a new device, it only gives me BT Networking and Activesync as the services, whereas before it had File Transfer, OBEX Push and Serial Port as well-- how do I get those back as services on the device?
Thanks a lot again for any help!
