Wideawake or someone good like that, help me real quick
 
Hey guys, as some of you may be familer with, i've only had this phone for a few weeks, absoutly love it. But over the few weeks, i've downloaded app's and stuff to see if they're something i like or not. i have some of my major apps on my sd card, such as the RTN Registry Hack, that GPS program (maps 4 pda i think), and some others on there. The programs i have installed on my phone is: BT Toggle, Sirius CE, Agile Messenger, and a dialer skin from EZ Dialer (think thats the name).

It feels kinda slugish, so i was curious to know if there is a solution on how to fix it so it runs faster. Not sure if a hard reset and re-sync would help (have all the .cab files saved too) or what. I have done numerous soft resets and have never taken it as far as a hard reset. But if any of you can help me out here on how to make it a little faster or less slugish, please let me know and post your ideas.

Thanks in advance!!

what's ur memory stats say? also have u tried running memmaid?

PPC6700Man 07-21-2006 08:04 PM

No I havent, and my memory status is...

Storage: Program:
Total: 43.50mb 49.20mb
In Use: 39.67mb 24.27mb
FREE: 3.83mb 24.93mb


Storage Card: 512MB
In Use: 17.67
Free: 465.07mb




and another question is, how do i completely close the program so it's not runing in the backround instead of "minimizing" it...

and if you could please provide the link of what you said about memory, and what it does

Wideawake 07-21-2006 08:16 PM

Alright run memmaid in advanced mode and check dead registry entries and the deleted program icons (something like that), along with what it already checks. You can get the beta here. It will remove temp files, and other items from a bad install.

to close programs instead of leaving them running I use magic button which can be found here.

I also suggest u hard reset after testing many programs, and reinstall only what u like, thats after ur finished testing. ;)
Hope this helps.

one last dumb question for the night, i hope..

a hard reset is from (one way) ##RUN# and do a reset there right? or is there an easier way using the button on the bottom of the phone.

and when i do a hard reset, it erases the whole phone correct? or what all exactly does it do

Wideawake 07-21-2006 08:43 PM

yea when u do a hard reset it will restore to factory default. in other words, exactly how u got it. you can do a hard reset two ways (not sure about the ##RUN#) u can a.) hold the two soft keys (the left and right slash) and press the bottom button. or b.) go to start/programs/clear storage. hope this helps.

Well i'll go this way for a while and see if it helps, if not, a hard reset will be what i do next. Like i've said before, thank's man, you're always a big help!

Wideawake 07-21-2006 08:57 PM

no problem, keep us posted. ;)

Malatesta 07-21-2006 09:35 PM

i also assume you're running the latest rom (which greatly increased the speed of the device)?

Wideawake 07-21-2006 09:38 PM

good ?, I didn't ask.
