GPSGate doesnt work well at all. There are no exit screen. It can do minimized only. When you exit, it crash.

Do you just not like Agile Messenger or does it break something on the phone? If you just don't like it then that is not the intention of this thread.

As for GPSGate, do you have a link to the software?

IM+ v7.0.1 -

In the mean time, Palringo v2 works great.

Not on my verizon tp2 Palringo didn't. Everytime I booted up the phone it would try and reinstall itsself. Now that I uninstalled it I am getting an error in reference to the program on bootup.

I personally dont recomend Palringo v2 at all.

Another program I had problems with was the spb shell 3.5. lost auto download of mail. None downloaded for 2 days nor would it. Screwed with the async. Also left me with no way to check if mail settings were still set properly or any ability to change them. They offer the weather program along with it, however only half the program worked. Upon uninstall but leaving the weather program loaded weather program now works as it should. Also upon unstall I have lost my start menu when turing off flo. Whoops! Task manager would also say an error however it was functional. It also added cities all over the globe which could not be removed and again with the mail issue, no send/receive button since it refused to do anything. 3dviewer set as default didn't fundtion properly. Bummer on the program. some things were neet for quick access. Another quirk they have is, ok we have a contacts button on bottom bar, but in their grouped icons for professional layout you were unable to remove that one. and NO quick access to make a phone call. You have to add the widget to the screen. Dam. and last but not least. It ATE Battery power like you wouldn't beleive.

If what you have found to be true between verizon & sprint, Seems spb needs to go back to the drawing board.

If you have been able to reproduce issues, please post and I will update the list.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=zim2323;1275311]This is my list of what currently does not work on the TP2, causes stability issues, etc. For all you guys wondering why certain things don't work, READ THIS!!!

I had both the Verizon and Sprint TP2's for about a week while switching carriers. Tweaks that work for one don't always work for the other. Proof of this is that Verizon and Sprint each take a different tweak to disable SMS Sent notifications.

also the user could break the device if your not familiar with tweaking....

sorry to get a lil off topic but true tho...

FYI guys, I found a post on the official Microsoft Windows Mobile forum where a Microsoft rep posted that Bing's "Locate Me" not working on CDMA devices is a known issue and they have been working on a fix for a while now.

So anyone who tells you theirs is working on a Sprint Touch Pro 2 needs to do a little better job "idiot proofing" their posts...

Thanks for making my point. Their problem. Not something that broke the phone. And yes, when I turn GPS on, mine works. Still have no clue what your are talking about it not working.
