You can easily get to the ##786# without activating. Just let the phone boot/customize. As soon as it comes up, run the code.
On that note, I'm on my 5th TP, 11/7/08, again, and this time, it seems to run a bit cooler, and the earpiece is much better (still not as good as any other phone I have ever owned.) The speaker is louder, (stock,) and the phone build quality is much better.
The screen, sadly, is one of the most unresponsive that I have ever used--even with sensitivity hacks. Most of the time, when scrolling through contacts, one of them gets selected, unless I push really hard. Also, the borders of the screen are terrible. If I open up notes and draw with the stylus to the edge of the screen, it stops about 1/4" from the side. If I jam the stylus into the screen, I can force it to work, but damn... that sucks
