I don't know what happened today, but when I make a call or received a call, all the buttons and the touchscreen locks up for about 1 minute. I could not check my voicemail because I could not enter the password. Does anyone have the answer? Thank you

what service are you on after you reset dial for the error code (depends on what service you are on. Or you may have lost your preferences settings. But first try the error code If you have your user manual it probably is in troubleshooting section. Get the info and get back with us and we will try to be of assistance

Do a soft reset and see if that fixes it.

I am with Cincinnati Bell Wireless. I did a soft reset and it did not resolve the problem. Later on i deleted some of the files........pics, emails, memo....now it's slow but i can access the buttons and touchscreen. Maybe, there were too many saved items on the phone. Thank you guys.

check and see how much free space you have as if you are less than 2 megs the treo gets cantankerous and uncooperative. There are ways to get some programs onto your sd card wehich can free up space on the main memory. There are posts on ET to help with that if you need them.

Try Reloading The Phone

Regarding the free memory issue, my Treo begins to act odd when the free memory falls below 3.2mb.

Your mileage may vary....
