That doesn't work for Verizon. They did something that requires a little more work to get rid of the popup. See here or you could also use the newly posted clean-up cab as that has those changes (and more)

These are the instructions for hard resetting a Verizon TP2.

To perform a hard reset

1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN, TALK/SEND, and END/POWER buttons until you see this message on the screen. Wiping user data/settings & any user installed applications...
2. Release the VOLUME DOWN, TALK/SEND, and END/POWER buttons.
3. Press the VOLUME UP button to restore the operating system to the factory default configuration, press the VOLUME DOWN button to restore the factory default configuration and remove any operator customization, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

Using Clear Storage

If you can access the device settings, you can use Clear Storage to reset your device back to factory default settings.

1. Tap Start > Settings, and then tap All Settings.
2. On the System tab, tap Memory > Clear Storage tab.
3. Enter "1234", tap OK and then tap Yes to confirm.

After a little experimentation on my Verizon phone, I find bg for all pages causes the call history tab to stop functioning. Always shows 0 missed calls. Like the look otherwise. Anyone else having this problem?

[joeramirez]

Yes, everyone with a VZ phone has the same problem. I still haven't seen a fix for it, however HD Walls works fine on VZ phones. Another unresolved issue on VZ phones is the transparent time. It works, however creates other issues.

Yes! Any ideas how to to change it from anyone on the post will be greatly appciated!

This may be a stupid question, but...

The ICS fix cab in the original post only allows ICS through a USB connection. Is Bluetooth possible, like on the TP, is it just waiting for the unlock, or is there another setting I can change that I am missing?

Thanks in advance!

I am not sure if anyone else has posted this but for those of you who have requested it, here is the STOCK HTC Manila TouchFLO theme for your Touch Pro2. Copy to Windows directory using TotalCommander or Resco. (Be sure to choose your new Today Theme labeled Htc Black)

Enjoy!

I like having some bookmarks in the start menu and figured out how to do it (likely there is an easier way)
1. Make a notepad file on your PC with the following:

94#"http://yourwebsite"

2. Rename file as *.lnk (for example yahoo.lnk)
3. Move file to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
