The only reason I installed all my stuff on the Touch Pro out of the box was because I didn't expect a custom this quickly.

With all the stuff I've installed and preferences just the way I want them on the Touch Pro, I just wouldn't want to go through all that on a constant basis. Any tips or workarounds?

No unless you use sprite or spb backup. But those will usually cause issues flashing to a different rom base. So use an auto installer program. I don't use it but you can search for it here on ppc geeks. Its called shamashu or something of that nature. LOL
