I am flashed back to 050110 and restored via SPB Backup restore for now. Think I'll wait for MM to address some reported issues with 052410, like auto-provisioning (which did work for me however) and WiFi.

I am running SE and have the same Quick GPS issue as you descirbed. Once it expires, I have to manually download.

Turned out when I went into QuickGPS it showed expired. I was able to manually update and then GPS functionality was fine. Doing manual updates isn't the end of the world, but it would be nice to have this little bug squashed.

I updated to the latest Mighty ROM without using Task29 (love it love it love it). For future reference, I would like to know exactly how it's done. I downloaded the exe file that is supposed to be dummy proof (but I guess not newbie proof, hehe).

Also, someone said to copy my pim so I can reload my contacts, it won't let me overwrite the new pim. Can someone help. Thanks so much!

Regarding Task29:
1. Download task29 .exe from post #6 on first page of this thread (you indicated you dl'd it already)
2. Connect TP2 to computer and establish a connection with windows mobile device center or active sync
3. Run task29 .exe (runs like flashing any other rom). After the flash, the TP2 will display the splash screen (touch pro 2)
4. Put TP2 into boot loader mode (vol down while turning on device, or vol down + end (pwr) key + reset button for Verizon phones). Should now see the tri colored screen.
5. Run custom rom .exe
6. Clear storage once custom rom is loaded
7. Enjoy!

Summit, after doing this restore over the original ROM, it definitely does confuse your ActiveSync. IF you are syncing with Outlook, do the following:
1. With the phone disconnected, make sure all partnerships are deleted from your computer.
2. After the SPB backup restore to your phone, and also still with it disconnected from the computer, go into ActiveSync on your phone and delete the partnership there. This will remove all contacts,calendar events, and anything else you had sync'd before with that computer. Don't panic at this point because everything is gone from your phone.
3. Plug in the USB cable to your phone and begin an ActiveSync as if it is on a fresh ROM flash. Now, all your contacts and calendar events will be placed back on your phone again as they were.

As for Pocket Informant, my wife has that on her Tilt2 and it can be put back easily also. It has it's own Export function to allow an export of ALL settings to your SD card. Then after the restore, import all settings back to the phone.
You probably already knew all of this, but maybe I have helped some folks out there anyway.

Gary,

Thanks and thanked. Yes, I pretty much know all that! But backup and restore of PI settings does not work for the icons, at least it's never worked for me. It restores selected colors and categories, but not the icons.

BTW, I'm writing this on my Samsung N210 netbook, tethered to my TP2 (Internet sharing)! Who wants an IPad requiring another ISP charge?

I would like to see if more people have this issue, and if the other person who had the issue has an airave, it could be the timing was changed as in 5-01 it was fine for the Airave and 5-24 its off, its too much of a variable right now unless others chime in or test it out for them-self's (but still 3 times for me testing and 5-01 works but not 5-24, but again thats why i say relatively sure instead of 100% sure )

I have an airave too and autoprov worked fine for me. My only problem with MY airave is that weather updates (and more recently) push mail do not work when im connected to my airave.
a little off subject...apparently I have lots of neighbors with sprint and my broadband connection is crawling. I noticed that my airave is maxed with connections so its time to lock it down and allow only my 3 phones access. Sorry Sprint.

1. The cookie will work with Mighty ROM?

2. I am with Sprint, I should look for a Sprint radio but do I have to unlock for the radio or mine is set to go since I already unlocked for the ROM?

3. Are you familiar with Task29? I downloaded the exe file but I have no idea how to use it. Can you or someone please tell me exactly what I need to do?

Thanks so much again.

RE #2: I'm very happy with the most recent Sprint radio that came with the stock 6.5 update from HTC/SPrint. When you use task29, it clears the phone like formatting a hard drive, BUT, it does not remove your radio.
So, if you have the stock radio from sprint, stick with it until you are happy with the new ROM you flashed then experiment with changing out radios.

Re Quick GPS and Data
OK, this is kind of like a statement and a question at the same time.
When I got my TP2, the salesman took the simcard out and said I would not need it since I am in a CDMA area and not going out of the country. I thought "OK, thats fine" and left it in the box. The other day, I decided to put the simcard back in the phone and things like my push mail (gmail via activesync), browser (opera), QuickGPS, weather updates via HTC weather tab, and MyPhone would not connect and do what they are supposed to do. I also had difficulty getting GPS locks for google and bing. I decided to remove the simcard and soft reset and everything works fine again.
So, if you have your simcard in and don't need it, would removing it possibly fix your problems like I had above? Give it a try and see what happens.
Is the simcard required if I am staying in the country and should I leave it out or in?
Heres where it pertains to mightyrom: If I should leave it in, then is there something in the autoprovision that needs to run to make the simcard work with mightyrom? (I loaded MR without my simcard in the slot).
Just a few thoughts and ideas that may make a difference for people having problems with QuickGPS and some other updates.
