I am one of the fortunate ones who has had almost no hardware or software problems.
I use QuickPull only when it seem sluggish, last one about a week ago. I do a memory clear about once a day and clear the logs about twice a week.
Try experimenting to see what works best for you.
That is the only time I use it as well. Since I am on Bell, I am still running .76 and for the most part it runs well, minus some random power resets or going into sleep mode but it is not in the holster. I used to think it shut itself off, found out it was in sleep mode.
SOLUTION: Put it in the holster and take it out.
If it gets real sluggish, then I use Quickpull.
