With 6.5 being officially released by Microsoft on 10/6 how long after that will Sprint release their official ROM upgrade for the TP2?

I missed the Sprint part.
You probably can google that which is what I did for the previous info.

this isnt news, its just a question....

Noone knows man, and we cant possibly have an answer... i remember it took moguls a few months to start being shipped with 6.1 on board... the upgrade ROM was certainly out WAY b4 it was coming shipped... dunno if the same can be expected... the difference here is, there are Device launches attached to this release as well...

it would only be speculation and blind guessing for any of us to tell you what will happen, in what order and in what time frame...

dont be a wuss, having to set your device back up, is simple... for your programs, start learning Sashimi, youll never set up programs again, and your contacts-well thats just a silly excuse not to try things, contacts take 30seconds to back up using activesync...

if you want a TP2, why torture yourself, just get one

Conflipper already posted the 6.5 kernal from a Sprint 6.5 rom a couple weeks ago. You would have to ask him if he can post it... probably just a test rom but at least you know they are working on it already.

Just check out the tp2 upgrade forum and read the thread about the 6.5 kernal for more info.

Yeah, NYC Guy... don't even bother. If you're on PPCGeeks you're gonna eventually start flashing ROMs and you'll probably be on WM6.5.1 before Win6.5 even comes out

You can use Sashimi or UC to make scripts (very easy) to install all of your programs and settings each time you flash. Read up on UC here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=1899755

And as for backing up your contacts... I personally use (and prefer, because of wireless sync) Microsoft MyPhone. But if you don't want to use that, you can always use something along the lines of PIMBackup.
