how was my post negative? i simply said to read the post above you because it was asked at least 2 other times. if you read the thread before asking, you wouldn't have had to.

Link has been restored thanks to Baffles for keeping a copy of the original post and being kind enough to repost his thread. I have learned something today this will never happen again. If you gave Baffles a thank you in his first thread please re thank him in the new one all those thank yous were lost when I deleted the post.

Is it mentioned anywhere in the forum in an easy to find place that standard mini-usb cables will work for syncing and charging the phone and that the odd shape usb port on the phone is that way so that it can support its proprietary tv-out and headphone stuff.

I only learned today that a standard mini-usb cable that works with a bunch of my devices fits perfectly and will allow me to charge and sync the phone with it.

I was about to make the mistake of buying several new sync cables and chargers until I discovered this.

Where is the Remote Desktop Manager on the handset and how, in what steps do I get it/download to the handset? The manual says the handset comes with it, though I can't find it in programs. I know you can download it from other sites for 44.00 and up. ??

I tried to take a picture last night using the flash and I couldn't get it to turn on, couldn't find a setting to turn it on either. What am I missing?

The CDMA Touch Pro (Sprint, Verizon) does not have the second front-facing camera... Also, it is not sure if the FM Radio is present.. The specs you list are for the GSM Touch Pro (AT&T Fuze)...

Nurse- After you have the camera open, so you can look and see to take pictures, click on the sprocket thing on the far right of the screen... There is an option for camera flash...

Re: Touch Pro FAQ's - READ BEFORE POSTING! (Last Update 12/9/08)
 
I see resolution, white balance, brightness, self timer, advanced and under advanced there is no flash light... using the kitchen do I need to cook it in? I selected the camera but I don't recall anything about a flash.
