Touch Pro Cleanup (Sprint Edition)

[GoodThings2Life]

MaryGladys, shame on you for not reading the posts!! I just answered this a couple posts back!

The tweaks enable Mass Storage Card mode which means that while it's connected to the PC, you don't have access to the storage card on the phone... just disconnect it from the PC... OR... go back to Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC > and switch it back to ActiveSync.

UPDATE: I reposted the packages so that they use ActiveSync again instead of Mass Storage, it was starting to annoy me too.

Oh God, that TOTALLY freaked me out! Sorry, I panicked and didn't read. First impulse is uninstall and re-do. Ironically, I just did a hard reset and when I choose Mass Storage, it still doesn't show up on the TP when hooked up to my laptop. So, I was about to get up here and shamelessly beg for mercy . Many apologies. Thanks!

No problem... I thought I would like that option turned on, since I store all my program installers on the memory card (don't need activesync that way), and since I usually just want to access the storage card from the PC when it is plugged in. But I've been doing a lot of testing lately and have needed it in ActiveSync mode far more than I expected for reg edits and access to the Windows folder.

Anyway, just download the package you prefer again, and it'll be fine this time.

Yeah, I use ActiveSync for my contacts and calendar. But definitely dig the Disk drive for copying over big chunks to my card. Eh well. Life's a tradeoff. Gonna re-dl now and install. THANKS!

I only want to:

Change Sprint Music tab to just "Music"... I've already removed the banner.
Delete the Sprint TV Tab.

How do I do just these two things? Thanks,

slopokdave,

Pretty easy to do those... if you want that without any other performance/battery tweaks, check out Post #2 in this thread:

MDL, if you want to start messing with the phone you better take the time to read up on everything, before you destroy it.

Asking for personal help is fine but don't get upset when no one accepts? They don't have to. Perhaps if you asked more maturely you may get someone to go out of their way to help

ActiveSync is the technology used to sync the phone with the computer. In Vista it was renamed to Mobile Device Center. When you connect your TouchPro to your computer, it recognizes it as either an ActiveSync device (default) or as Mass Storage device (in which your MicroSD card acts as a disk drive, just like connecting a USB flash drive).

Worked great, thank you. However, my file was named 26948339_manila, not 26958339_manila
