For instance I often will have Google Maps running but want to be able to go to other apps. Oh well, I'll have to work around it.

I assigned the press and hold send to the SPB Task Manager. Helps for switching back and forth.

Is it worth installing on the Touch Pro 2? Or are these fixes only for other devices? What's the WM6.5 icons support all about? What does that even mean?

Spb MS, I'm able to read the complete message

opening it.

Does anyone know of a way I can get this to work
the same way in TF3D?

All the Best!

FWIW, this may be related to a reported issue in the Touch Pro2 Cleanup by GoodThings2Life patches. I don't know which one causes the problem, but the solution is to get rid of the mail account then put it back. I had to do it whenever I installed this stuff.

I installed version 3.5.3 on my Sprint Touch Pro 2 (stock ROM) and immediately had a problem with it. When this version is installed the HTC Task Manager Quick Menu does not appear (upper right corner of the main screen). When I revert back to version 3.5.2 the HTC Task Manager Quick Menu is back. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes same with verizon stock on mine, but I just added a shortcut for the spb task manager on the main page and I click that instead, found it very annoying at first but seem to have got used to it, although it was nice to see the % of ram free before, I'd rather they left it alone but you get used to it.
