Every other day Messaging gets "stuck". ActiveSync/DirectPush (hooked to an Exchange Server) will stop working (have it on "As Items Arrive") and my other e-mail accounts (Windows Live, a couple of IMAPs) won't deliver mail. I have the TP set to close programs when I hit the X. There always seems to be at least 50% memory available according to Task Manager. Hey, the world won't come to an end if I don't get my e-mail but my business might.  BES wasn't perfect but this every-other-day thingie (and I turn the TP off completely every night) is driving me crazy.
There might be an app I use (Opera?) that's doing it but if I can't figure this out soon I'm going to need to eat the cost of the TP and see if VZW will let me go back to my old BB8830 and plan without an ETF.
Again, I realize there are trade-offs but if you really like your E-Mail then think twice (in my experience, anyway). |
Opera that I know of shouldnt have any impact on any other communications your phone is using,,,
I use exchange/activesync on my pro, with 4 seperate email accounts, and have no issues,,, but i am also on (alltel) it may hang every great once in a while, but hey even my laptop hangs every once in a while... nothing that halters my abillity to work though,,,
the memory issue? even though the tp has around 200mb of memory,, you must remember that quite a bit of it is used up by the operating system, and any and all apps services you have running in the background,, such as manilla3d or any today items,, but if you still have anywhere from 80 to 120 mb free then you are doing okay,,, and that is plenty of headroom to do what you would need the phone to do,,,,,
one thing to do is maybe to get away from the verizon rom,,,, as for the fact that verizon is known for multitudes of issues,,
granted if you flash your phone to a custom rom,, it is at your own risk,,,
