Actually, it's the other way round: With old versions, you had to toggle
the mode manually, since version 1.5 from 21 August, math mode will be
recognized automatically (with WinEdt 5.5).

Maybe you are using a math environment that isn't defined in the
highlighting settings and in _TeXmode.edt?

Note that with WinEdt 5.5, the information in the status line does not
necessarily reflect the current mode.

The *only* difference between these releases is in line 48 of _TeXmode.edt:

       IfOK(''Goto(9);CMD(|Next Bullet|);'');',>

where the previous version had:

       IfOK(''Goto(9);CMD(""Next Bullet"");'');',>

That shouldn't make a difference, though.

Could you send the _Installation.log, please?

To find out what goes wrong, you can temporarily replace the lines 24+
in _TeXmode.edt with:

:checkmath::
  FindInString("%%%!0%%","%%%!1%%",2,3);
  IfOK(!"Prompt('""%!1"" IN switch stack:%\%!0');JMP('math');",>
       !"Prompt('""%!1"" NOT in switch stack:%\%!0');");
Return;

For each of the defined switches, this will tell you whether it's in the
stack of highlighting switches (a list separated with "%"). What does it
say when you type "\(`a" (with the correct prefix)?
