Re: Windows Mobile 6.5.3 & TouchFlo 2.5 Questions...

the task manager from X2 seems to be more like the "old" task manager from the TP1 or the one that was shipped with the 6.1 on our TP2. Showcase seems to me a bit more robust...(definitely finger friendly)

If I remember correctly...when properly backed up...all info (including ring tone info) is backed up as well. However, you will have to have the ringtone in the same location as when you backed up your contacts.

the text message window has no X so just slide the slider all the way back to the left and you'll see a back button to take you back to TF3D home

Groovefish has always been on and off...and there's a reason for it...but that reason eludes me for the moment...known issue...

I think you should probably run stock for awhile longer and use the TouchPro 2 cleanup just so you know your way around TF3D

that last bit was just a friendly suggestion...since most of the user built ROM's are closer to the bleeding edge

Thanks for the info, I'm gonna experiment with ring tones soon. Just got to decide which ones are worthwhile for which people. I'm also going to try that Groovefish fix to see if it works.

What does the TouchPro 2 cleanup do? Does it just cleanup any settings from old programs that were installed?

Ya, the safe bet would be to stay with the stock ROM but the one from Telus kinda sucks and I've ran with the stock ROM on my TP1 for a year as well. TP was the worst phone of my life.

Anyway, besides some quirks with Mighty's Impact ROM everything's been going pretty good so far and I really like the new WM + TF! If they can get rid of the quirks I'll be really pleased!

Re: Windows Mobile 6.5.3 & TouchFlo 2.5 Questions...

the touchpro 2 cleanup provide a "few" tweaks to make the stock ROM more compliant and user friendly.

if you're already running a custom ROM...you should be good to go. Just remember that no matter how popular or how "stable" a custom ROM might be it'll still have its share of bugs and what not.

If you're with Telus..then you should be good with MightyMike's ROM's since he's a Telus guy too.

You would have enjoyed your TP a whole lot more if you ran a custom on it...but hindsight is 20/20 right?
