I am not a pro like others here...but I think you can safely kill it.
Let us know if your problem is solved...

Cheers!

Whatever I did deleted all the HTC apps. Calander, Settings, TouchFlo, Etc... It work after a cold boot until I try to open the settings. Then home screen is gone settings is empty. I'm probably going to have to go back to factory defaults...

there is a way to reinstall manila with .cab files, but its a pain in the ass. ill point you that way, but id just do a hard reset and get it over with. this time, be careful what you install, and try and figure out whats not compatible. i know it doesnt sound like it should affect manila, i would say the culprit is proll the start menu cab you said you installed. every thing else is legit and jives together. i use all those other programs.

Thanks Austin!

When you say do a hard reset do you mean reload factory defaults?

A hard reset will put the phone back to the way it was when you got it. Do a search for the proper way to do it. The Tilt 2 comes with an app called Clear Storage that easily reinstalls the stock ROM and resets the phone.

Before you go reinstalling any cabs you need to realize that not everything is made to work with any Windows phone. There are different versions of Windows Mobile and each has different versions of things like the UI. It could be Manila, aka TouchFlo (which comes in 2D and 3D flavor) or Sense (which has 2.1 and 2.5 versions). Some things made for 2.1 will not work with 2.5 and vice versa. Then there is the issue of network architecture. The TP2 can be GSM or CDMA. Some software will only work with one or the other, not both. You really need to do the research before you just start throwing cabs at your phone. This forum is primarily CDMA oriented and heavy on Sense 2.5 stuff. It would be great if every cab poster specified exaclty what it worked on, but that's not possible with so many different configurations of the same phone being sold by multiple vendors. Learn how to backup your phone and your registry so that recoveries can be easier. And read up on any cab before you install it. Don't assume it will work on your phone.

Yeah, too bad it came from personal experience.
