- Hey guys, my Curve has been running extremely slow and I'm sick of seeing the hour glass. Sometimes I get a call and press the answer key only to see the hour glass forever until the call is dropped. Its really annoying and I was wondering if anyone else have had this problem and what was done to solve it. I thought maybe my curve just needed defragging or something of that sort if it is possible. Please help, any suggestions is greatly appreciated. Big THNX in advance.07-09-08 06:25 PMLike 0

Memory optimization is key to having your Berry running tip top. I am not computer savvy at all and was able to do this fairly quickly. You will also learn things the average person who owns a berry doesn't. I am in the Facilities department for a global financial company, and know more about BlackBerries' than most of the I.T. guys. They were shocked when I told them my carrier is Verizon, but I am running Sprint's OS. I learned how to do this from Stoner and CrackBerry, that is why I always recomend his thread when this question get's asked. It works...07-09-08 06:55 PMLike 0

You need to follow Stoner's Guide to begin freeing up device memory!! Yes, a media card can help the issue... but there are other preventative measures that need to be done!! Badly!07-09-08 06:58 PMLike 0 -

- In a nutshell, it's not how much Memory you have. But rather, how you manage that which you have.
