So here is where I am at:

I got the phone to connect to my computer. Can explore the filesystem using Windows Explorer from desktop.
Still can not get my mobiler to connect to it (created a shortcut to it on the ppc and put the shortcut in the startup folder).
I got past the welcome screen by overwriting the welcome.exe with a fake welcome.exe and also deleted the shortcut in the startup folder.
Now when the ppc does a soft-reset, I see both splash screens and it will bring up the top bar only. Never get to see the home screen (today screen).
And the touch screen is still not active. Does not respond to any touches at all.
Funny note, I can make a phone call (get the VZW saying phone is not activated yet).

So I am thinking the main board is going out. Cause I have never seen one do this.
Current ROM is totally empty (only put in total commander in hopes to be albe to see the registry from the ppc but can't get that far yet).
