Sprint Touch Pro2 WM Lock

Hello,

I noticed that the TP2 suffers from the same problem that the Sprint Touch Diamond I had does. It occasionally (and spontaneously) will turn the screen on while doing nothing. I understand there is an issue with roaming with the diamond, but I was wondering if the same issue affects the TP2.

Also, is there a way to have the phone only lock is someone turns it on from standby? I set WM lock to enable every "0 Minutes" which lets me just turn the screen off to lock it, but this can get really annoying when surfing the web and reading--if I am reading for more than one minute, the phone locks. Also, for some reason Sprint TV doesn't seem to prevent the screen from locking, while Sprint Navigation does prevent it from doing that. Is this an issue with the program?

Also, on a side note, I noticed that HTC changed around the text messaging app a little bit. Sometimes I get HTC's text messaging app, and sometimes I get WM's messaging app, depending on how I access the text. It seems like the notification at the top of the screen and Touch Flo 3D launches HTC, while clicking "all messages" launches WM's version. HTC's version doesn't seem to support auto-capitalize at the beginning of the sentence or capitalize of the word "I." Any way around this?

Also, I can't seem to find a way to add a phone number to an existing contact when the phone number is received via text.

The Opera browser seems to support only 2 tabs. Any way to change that around without upgrading to 10 Beta?

The new "People" app is pretty good, although I wish they explained the Facebook integration more.

The "Calendar" app is different too. Is there any way to launch the old WM Calendar app without navigation to the start menu? The HTC calendar isn't very detailed and can't be viewed by week like the WM version can. Do you find this valuable?

Also, I just noticed that you cannot have both the clock and battery power indicator in the status bar. I remember the Diamond let me do this. Do you find this valuable?
