Phone Locks Up when Keyboard Slides Out - Touch Pro2 CDMA

When I slide my keyboard out my TP 2 freezes up. I have uninstalled everything that isn't stock on my TP 2, and it still feezes when I pull out the keyboard. I had this problem once on my TP 1 and it turned out to be the PIM went bad and I had to re-enter my entire contacts list. I am hoping to find a better solution this time. I am thinking it might be either Adobe FlashLite, which I can't seem to get to uninstall, or right before it quite working I used PPC PIM Backup V2.1 and Caxixi which is a Samsung game and had an SDK file withit. As far as I know everything has been uninstalled. I am accepting any ideas. Thanks in advance.
**Edit**
So I did a hard reset and it seems to have fixed whatever I had messed up. Now the only problem is I'm worried about using the backed up PIM and having the problem re-occur

Help... My touch restore settings automatically

I don't know why this is happening, probably because I deleted something in the windows folder. My touch restores system registry(or database) automatically when I don't want it to. The softkeys go back to original, pocket activesync not working and the exchange informations are wiped out, contacts are all deleted, and the most weired thing is, the mail/sms application won't start!
I've tried so many times, restoring to the previous version, and it worked for a while, then if I try to sync the email again, everything comes back!
Please, please, please! I've come a long way to make my touch so perfect for me, I don't want to do it all over again!!!
Somebody help me! PLEASE!
Update:
I kinda got it fixed somehow, anyway, I first restored, and used PIMbackup to backup the contacts something etc... then go directly to activesync, and delete everything before they disappear, then reset, then used pimbackup to restore everything, then it works fine now, email's fine, contacts' fine, everything's fine.

SMS stopped working - help

this is the second time this happened out of nowhere my SMS/outlook stopped working. my today Messaging item disappeared and when i click on programs>messaging nothing happens.
i tried restoring using my last sprite backup made on the 16th, but even after running the backup/restore it still the same.
what the heck?
looks like i'll be keeping the touch after all. poor touch... i was beating on it thinking it was at fault.. but it was MS fault as usual.
i'm surprised this problem wasn't that common..
apparently there is a bug in WM(6)? that if you store attachments on storage card and then later change the storage card (or move folders around) your mail/sms won't work. tmail.exe won't work either! it's like messaging or mail isn't installed.. really weird.
the solution is to rename the Inbox.blah.blah to something else, or delete it. everything goes back to normal...
What a legend... I was concidering a hard reset!!

Problem Reinstalling from Sprite Backup

I hard reset my Touch Pro to test something out. On attempting to reinstall from my Sprite backup I've had a major problem.
Attempts:
1) A straightforward reinstall led to an 'SPBServices.exe cannot be found' message and TouchFlo repeatedly trying to start but failing.
2) In a second attempt I stopped the contents of the 'StartUp' folder from being reinstalled - which stopped the 'SPB' message from appearing but the TouchFlo problem still happened.
3) Third attempt - I set everything to reinstall except the contents of the Windows folder - this worked just fine except, of course, all the problems that come from trying to make anything run without the dlls etc. in that folder.
The only things I can think that might be messing with TouchFlo after the reinstall are:
I installed SSMaPa and made it give me Pocket Informant instead of the built-in WinMo calendar.
There's Pocket Informant itself. I have TomTom installed. Spb Traveler. Otherwise I can't think of anything else that would load at the start and possibly interferen with TouchPro starting.
Anyone got any ideas? Clearly it is something, a dll I assume, that I need to tell the backup not to reinstall. The last thing I want to have to do is reinstall everything manually.
Anyone? Suggestions? Solutions? Random abuse?

Stability issues...Cannot find a long lasting Rom!

Hi guys, I've got a little problem that I need some help with.
Whenever I download and intall any rom on my phone, I use it for a while, maybe a few weeks or sometimes it lasts a month or two (most recently, lasted only a week)....it then freezes up at some point and I have to do a soft reset...sometimes instead of doing a soft reset it does a hard reset on its own....or it even sometimes freezes up on the boot screen and I have no other options but to perform a hard reset.
I'm sick of losing all my data and programs and then having to replace them.
I've tried numerous roms varying from Romeos, Laurentius etc....but I still get the same problem. I haven't had a stable rom since Dutty, but even with his, I would get this problem sometimes.
Any Ideas what I can do, this is getting really really annoying.
My phone spces are:
HTC Kaiser, 3.56 Hardspl (recently updated a month ago), Radio 1.65.24.36.
Apps that I always install:
SBSH Pocketweather, PIM backup, tomtom 6, z2 R2PC client (remote desktop program) and PT Travel alarm.
I sync all my previous emails, notes and call logs with PIM backup, and all of my calendar appointments and contacts I sync using Activesync through my PC.
Any suggestion would be extremely helpful, I'm ready to pull my hair out here....I'm sick of getting stranded having to do a hard reset then coming home and spending two hours fixing my phone to the way I like it,
Thank you,
P
I don't use any of those programs except TomTom, and even TT is used rarely.
BUT
I do/have used pretty much all the new ROMs and have had no stability problems. Obviously one or more of the programs are disagreeing with with the newer ROMs.
Is it because of wm6.1?
Are you getting the freeze when one of the programs are running?
I had that happen to me too the other day. I'll get the details of the ROM and post in here as soon as I can.
Try the ROM in my signature - never have a lock up. Only turn it off when I fly. Used it since it was released. I use TomTom and several of the others that you say and LOTS of others that I have installed.

The SPB Pocket applications are known to cause headaches with WM 6.1 ROMs. I would suggest running without it installed and see if the problem still occurs.
You think this has anything to do with what hardspl version i'm running? Even when i was running the older hardspl with duttys it still crashed on me once or twice.
As for software, i'm not running any spb programs...the only one i can see maybe causing a problem is pocketweather(by sbsh)...but it's a pretty simple weather app...i sure hope it isn't the cause.
I might have to give that Shogun app a try and see how that goes.
Thanks for the replies so far.

Try removing the weather app. As for HardSPL, the only known issues with running an incorrect/outdated version of it are occasional device freezes that generally last from 1-5 seconds.
I recommend flashing the AT&T OEM recent WM6.1 ROM. I am using it now and have no issues thus far. I also installed all of SPB Suite and Resco Suite, iGO8 and many other programs, NO ISSUES so far.
This ROM has been released and it is posted here on this forum.

iFonz very slow / crashing

I think I've put this in the right place, but Mods please feel free to move it if I haven't.
My O2 XDA Ignito (HTC Touch Diamond in a different housing) has worked perfectly with iFonz for many months. I'm on version 1.1.2. I am very, very happy with iFonz and would not want to go back to TouchFlo which is nowhere near as good.
Yesterday, iFonz suddenly started operating extremely slowly. I thought I had crashed, but in fact it responds to commands but takes anything from 15 seconds to over a minute to do so. Until then, it has been virtually instantaneous.
The first command I issue after it's been left for some time will work as normal, but if I open (say) the PI Calendar, then close that - the nothing else will work for about 15 seconds after the keypress.
The only change I know about is that I had a problem with ActiveSynch to a new desktop installation (the familiar 0x86000107 problem) which I fixed in the usual way by deleting and reinstalling the pairing. Activesync worked fine after that.
I have S2U2 running - but that's always been there.
I noticed from the time I first installed iFonz that it would not update its header bar for several seconds after starting, but everything else worked OK.
Can anyone suggest a cause or a fix? I'm reluctant to uninstall and reinstall because I've set up 4 pages of icons and don't want to lose all that work.
I never used iFonz but i'm pretty sure the settings are kept somewhere so you can export them and not have to set everything up from the beginning. I always suggest uninstalling to check what causes the problem.
Thank you. Indeed, that is what I would have expected. I've searched the machine carefully, and found the iFonz software but no settings file.
I've PMed the author, and meanwhile I've taken iFonz off the startup list and running Touchflo instead. I don't like it anything like as much as iFonz, but it works.
Well, there's been no reply from the author, and everything I've tried (including uninstall and reinstall) has made no difference. Sad, because I liked iFonz.

Please tell me how to fix the above a bit more specifik...
I don't understand what you mean by: "pairing"
"Pairing" is setting up the ActiveSync connection between the PDA/phone and the PC so that they will synchronise when you connect them.
If you get the error, you have a problem. I fixed mine for a few months, but then the problem came back worse, and the fixes that used to work stopped. Basically, I don't think ActiveSync is capable of doing the job reliably. It deleted all my contacts (losing me a load of names and addresses that I needed and couldn't recover). I threw it out some time ago.
I now use an iPhone which doesn't have any of those problems.
