    A battery pull is a BB owners best friend. When you yank out that bettery, all electronics on the phone stop, and it works like a reboot on your PC. It loads everything back up, clears memory and closes open programs. A Battery pull a day (or every other day) keeps the slowness away.

    When something screws up on your BB, the first question people will ask you is "did you do a battery pull".

    Do a battery pull if you haven't done so already. Heck, don't even think about NOT doing it. You'll have to wait a coupla minutes for it to reboot but it's well worth the wait.

    Otherwise that dang thing never reloads anything... only goes so long without going down into a crash. The same principle applies for Android phones, except they're buggy as heck.

    Battery pulls are always step 1 in trouble shooting.

    As a few people around here have told me
    'WHEN IN DOUBT PULL IT OUT'

    Make device is ON and yank the batter for 30 seconds put it back in.
