Quick Start guide for Sprint HTC Pro 2 users

[agkelos]

Hello, I love seeing threads where all the info of a particular item or topic can be found within it, so I decided to make one for Sprint TP2 users, where everyone can contribute too.

General Information

SERO plans do indeed work with this model. Please discuss here : http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=82550

Taking care of your new device

Please keep in mind that it is good measure to do a hard reset of the device when you get it and allow it to fully load to avoid "lagging" on the device.

A good summary of how our TP2 batteries work (first post) : http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=82586

Good screen protectors (please keep in mind that this phone barely came out and that these companies usually release screens after the release of the device) :

Zagg.com aka invisibleshield (my personal choice)
Bestskinsever.com (Similar to zagg but cheaper and usually come out later)
Boxwave.com (Antiglare and crystal clear protectors)

Accessories

Not many out there right now but here are a few useful ones :

Good Apps to have

You have a huge ammount of choices on how to customize your new phone with apps and themes. This is what make WinMo devices stand out from other cellphones (among other things of course). Here are 2 good starting points for you.

Out of curiosity: Zagg currently has an invisible shield on their site for the TP2. It doesn't specify CDMA or GSM, but my guess is maybe it was for T-Mobile? I'm pretty sure it's not the same shield because of the back, but figured I would ask here before I contact Zagg to find out what their plans are for the Sprint version.
