I have a pearl 8130 with a 4.5 os. I've had it about a month and a half now. Recently its been slowing down. Its been crashing and freezing and I have no idea what to do. I've done battery pulls and deleted apps and messages. I can't use multiple apps. My browser freezes. And its effecting my inbox now. Someone tell me how to fix this please. Or do I need to just go to the store and get it checked out?
All the store will be able to do for you at this point is offer you a refurbished replacement under warranty. If you've never performed Reed McLay's Memory Optimization Procedure, you need to. That will solve a lot of your problems. It's the first link in my sig.
yea. check this forum out..forums. crackberry. com /f79 /newest-8130 -os-4-5-0- 160-esn- 278501/ it should help with the memory issue many people found it useful in that area they say its due to the os you have but the update helps. just follow the instructions he adds.

When I was researching BBs before I got my pearl I did read that they have a memory problem. With mine I downloaded the Quickpull app from the crackberry store. There is a free version and one you have to pay for. It simulates a battery pull. I just do that when I start seeing the hourglass more than I want to.
Its a little bit of a hassle but it does help. (I don't know if any of the memory optimizers mentioned above work. If you've tried them you should let me know!)
