No. 4 lives

by Volker Weber

Treo #4 arrived today and it was running into the same problems that #3 was facing. I am pretty sure it is not the hardware. The main suspect is Chatter 1.0.6.x. I am now back at 1.0.5.1 and will try and see if it crashes the device. It's now running on a backup chip, while the RAZR takes the phone calls.

Update 30.7.: Had another crash, then when the Treo reloaded I got a brief message from Chatter. Now have removed all traces of Chatter. At least I hope so. #4 has now been behaving itself.

Update 31.7.: I had another crash. No traces of Chatter on the machine, but "Enable local network time" was on. Disabled now. Hey, if I want a smartphone that crashes once in a while I would be running Windows Mobile. ;-)

God yes. I agree with the windows mobile crashing thing - I've been using an O2 XDA 2s for six months. Nightmare...
