Hi. I just wanted to let you know that the 13seconds trick doesnt really work. Well it removes preloaded stuff (you just dont see it) but you dont get more space- exactly the same as you get if you do only master reset. The only thing you get by doing 13s trick is moody and unstable phone. I tried this with t230 t310 and t300. I cant say for the other models.

Just search for 13 sec trick. It's a waste anyway.

Remove the battery at the 13 sec after starting a master reset. Risky and dangerous way to free up memory.

Why is it risky? Anybody had really bad experiences after the 13 sec trick? My T230 is ok and better than before. This doesn't mean that i am advocating the 13 sec trick. I did it cause at that time i didn't know it damaged the phone. I tried it even on my friends phone and its ok too.

yeh.. one of my friends tryed it on their T300. Crashes all the time.. sometimes doesnt switch off. weird stuff like that. But it was an excuse to get himself a nice new P900! seeing as his T300 was "ruined"

I wouldn't risk it. Hardly worth messing up a good phone is it ?
