for the most part you are sol. i have heard of programs that will let you remote into your ppc and do things but i would guess you would need to be able to see the screen for the inital setup before you can remote in.

Just tested by sending a text with the mouse on my computer screen, and it worked perfectly.

One thumb up until i test some more, but seems to be decent!

You need to establish an activesync connection to the phone, then run the program. It found the phone and asked to install the software on it. I agreed, and it works. Can browse anything like the phone is in your hand. mouse pointer is your finger, and has buttons for the hard keys.

Didn't need to at all with the program I just downloaded. It was free so I gave it a shot. I mean, my phone works, but I tested by installing it screen down so i couldn't see what was going on.

Thank you very much. and WTF is right. Hope we not sol !

And i cant do anything tonight. Im waiting to get it back in the mail.....but i might play around on it with my imagio. At least when i get the touch pro back, ill know what im doing.

And btw, it is working on the imagio very well..i have it face down with the screen off, and i still can control the phone without the screen coming on. This is a step in the right direction, Thank you wiskydiver1.

I stumbled on it while doing searches related to pay software of the same kind. Wasn't sure if it would work, but was pleasantly surprised!

Ill let you know what happens with the touch pro when i get it back. Im kinda excited now that i just might be able to see it go into boot mode, and put the stock rom back on it.

I have a feeling that you won't see it go into boot mode. The bootloader breaks the activesync, but by that time you shouldn't need to see it. Run the Stock RUU, watching the PC screen. It'll hit 100% (I hope) and reset the phone. Disconnect the usb and walk away. You can try hooking it up again later, but I don't know if activesync will connect to a phone that hasn't gone through initial setup yet. At least at that point you'll know the stock Rom is back on it, and you can try the procedures here to manually put it in bootloader and then run the relocker. Of course, you may be able to see the phone before initial setup. If so, that would be sweet!
