Windows Phone Thoughts: Clinton Fitch Reviews Tweaks2k2 .NET

"Like any Personal Computer, most Windows Mobile users like to customize their device to better fit their personal needs. While most of these can be done via the settings within Windows Mobile itself, some are not. Some of these are buried within the Registry of your device, a place that is not recommended for the faint-of-heart or those who are not familiar with how the Registry functions. Simply put, one wrong move within the Registry of your device can leave your device inoperable... Seeing a desire for users to customize their devices but without having to have detailed knowledge of the Registry, Frank Garcia created Tweaks2K2 .Net. Tweaks2K2 allows you to make over 100 different tweaks and changes to your device to make it suit your needs more. The range of tweaks that are available is impressive and reach into the User Interface, Pocket Internet Explorer, and system functions. Within Tweaks2K2 you can also check memory and battery levels as well as perform soft and hard resets of your device."



Clinton Fitch has posted a nice review of Tweaks2k2 .NET on his site, and it provides an excellent overview of this application. I remember when Tweaks2k2 .NET was released, and after seeing it's maturation, I agree with Clinton's sentiment that Tweaks2k2 .NET is an essential app. Why doesn't it make all the essentials lists - probably because of the beauty of it - run it once, customize as you'd like, and make periodic tweaks as your workflow changes. It's not the most used app on my device, just one of the most relied on!
