Memory problems
Which BBs now have the memory issue? I have an 8130 that I often reset to get memory back. However, a friend just got a new Curve, has downloaded tons, and had something like 35 megs. Are new versions coming with more memory? Is it just the Pearl that requires the memory maintenance?

View Original | 8100 - Stay lit up
Hi
I have an 8100 pearl and I run an AT&T hands free car kit in a 2008 Vw Golf/Rabbit.
The car kit is bluetooth, however the crazy laws in the UK dictate that you need a cradle to put it in. Not a bad idea as the cradle I have charges the phone as well.
I want the phone to stay permanantly lit up when it is connected to the car kit and charging. I can only make it stay lit up on the maximum timeout which is around 2 mins (from memory)
Anyone got any ideas ? Is there some special software I can get to make it stay lit up ?
Any help appreciated

View Original | A way to save rotation of pictures and change title of songs/ringtones on BB device?
Like the title says, when you are looking at a saved picture on the phone, you can do menu, rotate but can you save it after rotating it so it stays that way? Haven't found a way to do it on the phone yet.
Also, when you go to a ringtone or song file in the media app of the phone, you can look at the properties but I don't see a way to rename them anywhere. Anyone know of a way without having to mass storage into it?

View Original | Pearl Envy
Okay, guys. I could use some help.
I have posted a few times about my 8800 and its issues. I truly do love my phone, but it has some issues that just aren't working out for me. I think the time has come for me to accept that I need to replace my phone since it gets obnoxious having to do a battery pull every five hours after looking down to discover that I don't have service and no way to restore it aside from the pull. I've changed the battery in the phone, changed the OS, and done everything else suggested as a fix - no dice. I miss too many important calls with my phone in its current shape. I don't hate the phone, but I do dislike its problems.
Anyway, to my new dilemma! My cousin has the 8130 from Verizon and I was playing with it yesterday as she was getting tattooed and I've discovered that - holy cow, I really like the phone. Now, I have T-Mobile, so obviously I wouldn't be getting that version of the Pearl and would either be getting a 8100 or 8120. Despite having a full QWERTY for years (and loving it) SureType is no problem for me because I also love it. I'd also prefer if the phone had Wi-fi, which would mean that the 8120 would be the way for me to go except for the fact that it's more expensive and I'm trying to cut costs. Other than that, I'm not too picky. I like the 8320 as well, but I feel like at this point in time I'm just looking for a smaller phone overall.
So this is where you shine, 81xx lovers. Help me convince myself that this is the phone I want to get next!
