However, there are no complete instructions as to how to use task29 to unlock and install the new ROM. I do not know how to get into bootloader on this phone, nor can I find instructions. I have years of experience of ROM's on the Touch, the Touch Pro and now this. So far, this is seemingly the most complex and least explained. Please help if this is the right thread for such a question.

Task29 is a way of wiping your phone before flashing a new ROM. It helps with problems you may get if you just flash a bunch of custom roms. In the past, people flashed to a shipped rom to do the same thing. Task29 is faster and easier. It either flashes a radio or splash screen, and then wipes the memory that the ROM is written to. After it's done, you put the phone in bootloader and flash the new ROM. Bootloader is the same on the TP2 as the TP. Hold volume down and then press+hold the power button.
To use the task29 that flashes a splash screen (post #9 in this thread I believe), you double click Task29.exe and click yes/ok a few times.
