maybe this will be a lesson to us. it doesnt mean the p800 is bad... we're just not contented everytime. we always search for something better. one mistake and walla! u say you hate SE.

i don't have much files on my p800... and i couldn't imagine having 1000 sms/mms stored.

there is a solution for your problem petter, next time... when you think you have a whole lot of stuff on your phone, back it up! better to be safe than sorry. (just a piece of advice)

But you should have been warned !

This is a known bug (or fault) - if the memory is full, it is very likely to lock up and need a hard reset.
So the lesson is - do not allow the internal memory to be filled up to the limit. Always leave at least 3-4MB free. If you frequnetly get MMS. beware!

Also it runs slower if there is not much free internal memory.

As usual, I'm a little confused.

It's got the little memory stick doesn't it? Can't you put it into a reader (only about $20?) and get the data off of it with your PC before you reformat it?

Or is it some format that the PC won't understand?
Using my Siemens S46 till I finish saving my pennies for a P800 (or maybe a Treo 600)!

I've never had a problem yet in 2 months. I use my P800 a lot, have installed and uninstalled many pieces of software. It's never crashed or had the "10 second" thing.

One of the posts I read when I got the phone said to leave about 15 to 20% of the internal memory free. I've done that and never had a single problem. Maybe that's the answer .....
