Sprint TP2 starting over... looking for advice

[karossii]

Hi all!

I had a TP2 for a while, and the very day I got it, I installed a ton of stuff starting with the (then latest) Mighty ROM, and several extensions to add Sprint functionality (Nav, TV, etc.) back into Mighty ROM.

During all of those months, I used my phone for little more than an actual phone, along with tethering it to my laptop a half dozen times or so; and several times felt bad that I had this wonderful device I was not using to the smallest degree of its potential.

Then last week the touchscreen went out (weird story, maybe for another post), and I got a free replacement. I have it up and running, and have not yet installed a single thing on the phone. So far, the only difference I am noticing from the MightyROM and the Sprint TP2, is that opn connections I cannot select wifi mode. As my laptop is out of commission at the moment, I can't check if I can still use the TP2 to tether, but if I remember correctly that is the main reason I did previously install Mighty ROM...

So... I would like to use my phone more fully now, starting fresh as it were. I would like to get some good games to play, I'd like to regularly use it to watch movies and listen to music, and I would like to make sure I can still tether it to my laptop (when I get that replaced soon).

So what would you recommend I install into this phone?

• Should I stick with the Sprint core OS, or upgrade to Mighty ROM or some other similar OS?

• What's the best way to ensure I can tether with good connection speeds (either USB or Bluetooth)?
• Are there any specific good movie/music apps out there for this phone or PPCs in general?
• What about games? I play all types, but have been hoping to find either a very good space trader type or fantasy RPG type for the phone (I never really looked all that hard before)... also I'd not mind some mindless games like tetris and card games, etc.
• Anything cool you like to do with your TP2 that I may not have thought of yet?

Thanks!!!
