VERY Slow performance after upgrading to v4.5

Since I upgraded to to v 4.5.138  my VZ BB 8830 has slowed to a crawl. Even trying to make or receive a phone call I get a spinning hour glass for several  seconds. It gets worse over time to the point where I have to take the battery out and restart.

Then it is OK for a few minutes but gets progressively slower. Very annoying.

 

Also, I can no longer sync, either with PocketMac or with the new BB DTM, despite uninstalling everything and reinstalling.

Re: VERY Slow performance after upgrading to v4.5

Instead of pulling your battery out:

 

Hold the left ALT Key, then hold the right SHIFT key, then press the DEL button for two seconds. It should automatically do a reset. Memory management on these 8830s are so poor. Its ridiculous.

Hi what really happens by doing    "Hold the left ALT Key, then hold the right SHIFT key, then press the DEL button for two seconds. It should automatically do a reset. Memory management on these 8830s are so poor. Its ridiculous."...........is switch the phone by pressing the Red button and doing the above is same i am using the 8300 ph for our application....

Re: VERY Slow performance after upgrading to v4.5

Holding the power button turns the phone off.....

 

alt, shift, del resets the phone.

 

When turning the phone off, the phone is in a low power state I believe....I don't think it actually turns completely off. As you can set it to come on at certain times.

 

A reset is the proper way to go.

 

It actually mimicks removing the battery.
