    I feel so dumb! I should have read the instructions! It seemed as though no matter what I did, my Pearl's memory just wouldn't increase. Deleting everything, clearing event log, soft reset, battery pull, NOTHING WORKED! so this morning I got frustrated and went through the How to Increase Memory thread and saw the MaxMem app.

    Unfortunately I didn't realize what I was doing and deleted suretype!!! and of course, didn't make backups of anything, because hey, i never do ANYTHING wrong! STUPID STUPID STUPID!!


    I've read that an OS re-install will help but i have a Mac computer, is that possible? Does anyone have any good instructions for doing this?

    Is there any other way to get SureType back??

    Please help i want my suretype back.

    Use parallels or fusion to install windows and then install DM. I believe you can get a trial of the emulators

    i ended up taking it to the Verizon store, where they said they would restore the OS for me, since i didn't really have a PC readily available.

    BUT...when he tried to do the restore it wouldn't work!!!

    so they gave me a new pearl. i'm kind of annoyed that the problem wasn't solved on that one but at least i have a new pearl with suretype.

    Wow! I'm not the only one who been through this! Thanks for the helping hands but I am not near a pc or mac and I'm on t-mobile. Hopefully they can put it back together for me! Such a amature mistake! Nothing that resembles eng should be deleted when using max mem!

    I am concerned about these reports, but I can not duplicate them in testing. I have recommended MaxMem for the past year.

    I have installed MaxMem v0.4 and tested each of the available functions.

    None of them has impacted SureType.

    SureType or MultiTap is selected at:

    Options / Languages. Input Language offers the choice of one or the other. Unfortunaly, the default font truncates the language option, you have to select it to see the full description.
