If I try and back up it locks up.
Tried downloading a ring tone, it locked up.
I was doing a customization of the standby mode .. locked up ...
It isn't just one thing that causes it, but FOR SURE the backing up ALWAYS
causes it. It gets about 20% backed up, and I get an error to retry it. I
have to take out the battery and restart, but it happens again.
At first I thought the problem was the cable, but then I did a sync, it did
NOT lock up .. Last night I was sending a VERY SHORT text message. maybe a
half dozen words, I see the progress bar 'sending' and it never sends, but I
have to open the back for it to release. When I rebooted the message was in
the draft folder.
But I have sent a dozen others with no problem. Other times it locks up and
I leave it alone and eventually I hear the sound of it re-booting .. or I
think it has .. but I open it up to a black screen .. or .. sometimes when
it is thinking about rebooting, the screen goes white .. AND [this is a
lemon, right?] sometimes when the phone is rebooting and it is closed, the
display, before showing the hands, shows just a screen full of colored dots.
AAARGH.
My other phone is a Motorola mpx300, it is PERFECT and a great phone, but
sometimes it just shuts off on it's own .. Both are large phones, I don't
like the tiny ones for some unknown reason .. that's why I chose this
model. Now I am thinking I have made a mistake buying the Nokia, I haven't
even tried taking a picture yet ..
