    right now all I can say is wow, I have read all the feed back and watched the video. What could actually be better than a wm phone??? I guess I hve found the answers. Yes i can see that there are some kinks that need to be worked out but what hits the stores and does not have kinks?! So now the question to myslef is do I upgrde to this or tp2? All the rave reviews send me away from the tp2. Thanks for all the feedback spj
    i myself love the tp2 and battery problems i have never faced with the device... it is way faster than the touch pro in all aspects, has 2.1 running flawlessly, the stock rom didnt suck, and much much much more... you got the larger screen, the tilt, they awesomely spaced and luxeriously easy to press large buttons... damn its enough to cream over girl.

      Yeah the best way to check if it's working or not is to go to your settings > about phone> status and scroll to the bottom and make sure your awake time isn't 100%.

      cause if it's 100% then no matter when your screen is off your phone is still working. My battery life extended ALOT after I started using handcent and completely disabled all the built in texting.

      But yeah hopefully they'll fix this issue cause I don't like having to monitor stuff like that.

      so when I turned off gps/wifi/bluetooth/ always on data/ and built in texing... my battery life is great now. I don't mind the battery draining if I'm the one draining it... but when I'm not using my phone I want my battery doing ok

      I recommend installing the battery graph from the market. It's great to check up on the battery usage, like I was able to tell the best way to charge my phone Car Charger > Wall outlet > Usb. and you can see what programs drain the battery quicker, definitely a cool application to have.

            what do you mean dirt under screen? you have a screen protector on there? and for wifi sharing you can use htc wifi router, wmwifirouter, etc...

              yea bout to say i never heard about dirt underneath the screen..To be honest you don't need a screen protector...If you read the specs it has that screen coating that protects from oily substance. I love it myself..my that just my opinion.
