I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with my 755. currently I have 32mb of 62mb free on my device and 3.4gb of 4gb free on my sd. but for some reason my treo is running extremley slow. most times when I go into or exit apps. I've made sure that I delete all files associated with any apps I didn't want ( destaller pro) so I'm not sure what's wrong...maybe I need a new treo (even though this one is just 30 days old)

Sounds to me like a hard reset is in order, and weed out the bad app, which is slowing things down.

if I do a hard reset but made a backup with resco, won't the bad data come back when I do a restore from resco? or were you suggesting I start from square one?

I'm thinking if you already have it backed up with your palm desktop, if you do a hardreset, and start to bring things back one at a time, you will be able to figure out which one is hanging things up.

When my treo runs slow a soft reset usually (always) gets it back to normal. Try that before the drastic hard reset....

thank you both. i do have two versions of dtg on my treo, not sure if that is hanging it up. the 1st is what's installed from sprint, but then i got 10.0 ver and it just installed on top of it, i couldn't remove the old version it said it was part of the rom.

Are these applications on the card or in main memory? Is there a specific application giving problems?

main memory. i think it may be the dtg that came with the 755. I don't know why if I upgrade that it still leaves the prior version on my treo. Other then that, it does take a while when I come out of chatter.

ChatterEmail has a setting to speed up its exiting - Preferences - Performance - then enable "Quick Exit (Treo 700P).

DTG upgrading leaves the old version in the device as the application is in ROM.

Sweet, the chatter quick exit wokrs like a charm. I didn't select it because I saw 700p and didn't know what would happen. Thanks alot. And thanks for the info on DTG, so is it safe to say this happends with any app that are in rom that come standard (google, pokect tunes, etc)
