One thing which likely helped is that I did a hard-reset of the phone as soon as I got it, and then prevented the AT&T software cabinets from loading up. These can definitely cause problems. Also, the Tilt just recently came with 6.1. It was 6.0 when I had it, but others have upgraded to 6.1 with mixed results. You might have success with a downgrade to 6.0, or trying one of the "cooked" ROMs instead.

Seems lame but at least here a lot of operators sell broadband separately from the phone accounts anyways.
