Just curious as to longest length of time folks ran between battery pulls. I am thinking about 2 weeks for me.

Maybe 2 months or so

I don't do the battery pull, I use SoftReset. But either way, its been about a month

Don't do a battery pull unless you have to, to clear some problem that a reset won't clear, like a non-responsive keyboard. For qwerty devices, that's Alt-R.Shft-Del. For Pearl's, SoftReset

Glad you clarified that it was a battery pull...was fixing to get out my stopwatch.

For me, I usually do a soft reset when I'm experiencing problems.

[berry me with it]

I do one every 3 weeks or so.

I use to do it once a week because I thought it was good for it. Since I heard differently I've not done one in 3 weeks. (I did cheat a few times since I heard)

About a month.

Probably 2-3 weeks.

If i see that my file free has dropped below 12,000,000 should I automatically do a soft reset on my Pearl?

That would be a good idea. I see from your sig that you've already optimized your memory. If you don't mind, post your file free after the reset. I'm curious to know how much it helps.

[Pre-dawn raid]

My file free after running soft reset with all the apps in my sig shows: 18,237,xxx. Before the OS upgrade (I was running 4.3.0.71) I would have 21mb+ after running soft reset.

Thanks, that's a useful reference point. I'm not familiar with a lot of your apps, so I don't know how big they are. I know the Pearl has to dedicate memory to the SureType database that qwerty models don't have.

I was going to contribute tonight, but Auto Power Off has made that nearly impossible, and I am not into pushing the envelope right now.

Fresh start, I have 24 Mb. Trivial amount of data, but nearly all the core apps still installed. After a week or so, it settles in at 15 Mb.

Rock solid.

When it did act up last month, I took it into the storefront and the gal fixed it by re-seating the battery. Doh!

[Duvi]

I never have to with my 8700c. I've optimized. Granted I've had it only for a month, it's 25mb.

[jeffh]

Reed, Jayden, thanks for the feedback. I thought BBslim's memory sounded a little low even after his reset, but I'm not familiar with most of his apps.
