Did you use a PIM backup? I reset mine a couple of times, the PIM backup runs from the MicroSD card and works PERFECTLY

Same thing just happened to me. I'm running stock 6.5, never unlocked or flashed. My phone was lagging something crazy, and i was repeatedly getting the SOD. I soft reset the phone like 15 times, and then it started working fairly smoothly, no more SOD. So I did some light internet surfing, then put it on the charger for the night. I wake up this morning and it wont accept my password so I said time to go to PPCgeeks. I'm just lucky that this was like the third post on the first page and i decided to open it to see why the op was hating his phone. Thanks for the hard reset instructions guys, I'm off to a custom rom

If you MUST lock you phone just get the "Android like" lock thing. Where you have to draw the image to unlock the phone.

Im on stock 6.1, 21052, 2.1 TF3D. A few cabs and reg edits to suit me. I use this phone ALOT and rarely run into issues. The ram usage boots around 40% and it doesn't lose memory like when I ran 6.5. Its def a good device if set up right with the right software.

anyone who HATES the TP2, just doesnt know how to MOD-It-Out is all...

"well for 600 dollars i should have a phone that just works" - guess what, it did till you started downloading apps, changing registries, and other mods

"its like one of the Best WinMo phone out, why do i have to do so much customization just for it to work" - obviously said person did little>NO research at all on WinMO devices or you wouldve seen that winMO is VERY buggy at times and most of the devices need to be modded extensively for everything to run at 100%

THANK YOU!!! that first line says it all... Once i started modifying and customizing my phone all my issues went away. There are fixes/patches for just about anything! It just takes alot of patience and a little homework.

you should upgrade to this sprint basics rom I'm using. its like stock except its based off build 21057 and has flash in IE (youtube compatible) it boots with 42% ram used and whenever it leaves the 60s it goes back to the 50s when apps are closed.

happened again. tried getting it replaced my sprint yesterday but they said there was water intrusion. which is false.

my contract expired in june. my wifes is up in 9 months. once hers is up i will debate who to go to.

if there is anyone in the lower NY area that is willing to meet up and mod this phone for me and get it top notch let me know. ill buy you lunch. i know its a good phone but stupid shit is driving me nuts.
