Hey guys my radio will power off a few seconds after i manually restore the connection.

I tried wiping, restoring and interchanging settings with no luck. This is the 3rd phone that this problem has occurred. All three phones were sent in for service. This time they are NOT replacing the phone without a fee.

I believe it is a software problem because if i REMAIN in the manage my connections window then the radio will not turn off! (it changes from YELLOW to GREEN back and forth — never red!) If i place the phone in the BB holster or exit this window, the radio WILL power off.

Any ideas. Im stummped!!!!

The pearl is notorious for leaking memory. This means that when you leave applications running, they slowly eat away at the available memory you have in your device. Once the memory reaches a critical level, the Pearl starts to delete call logs and messages etc in an attempt to free up some memory so it can function properly.

There are a number of things that you can do to free up some memory and stop the Pearl from deleting and shutting off. I have written an article outlining 8 ways you can free up some space. Read it here: http://www.bbgeeks.com/blackberry-guides/8-ways-to-trim-the-fat-from-your-blackberry-88493/

I have a pearl and mine’s been doing the same thing- on full battery the radio will automatically turn off. I turn it back on but it will only stay on for a small amount of time before turning off again.. Cooper, what is “leaking memory” and how do I fix the problem? Thanks!

@trinda humphreys What model of BlackBerry do you have? If it is a Pearl it is probably leaking memory.

my phone has been really making me mad because the radio will turn off on full battery and once i do the thing to turn it back on manually it will only stay connected for about 30 seconds and shut back off. so i would like to know how to keep it on for good. oh and ive tried just about everything to get it to work. and it just will not cooperate with me. please help !!
