has anyone else experienced the frequent lag and restarting when using a memory card in the phone? when i try to flick scroll through my pictures, the phone freezes for like a few minutes then restarts and then it works fine for about an hour then if i scroll again, it freezes again and restarts again. also, when i try to open up the music player and choose a song from the memory card, the phone freezes and restarts. i tried to get my phone repaired at the ATT warranty center in the local store and the lady said that just because its a touch screen, its going to freeze every now and then. i dont think she understood that i dont want a phone that freezes every hour or so. i got a replacement phone and the new one does the exact same thing. she also mentioned that it could be because i had a full length movie on my memory card and it just took time trying to read it. (i have the hangover on there BTW). does anyone have any solutions because im really tired of this phone and its problems. im thinking about selling it via craigslist and getting the pantech link from ebay so any help would be appreciated

It's not a problem with the phone. I have a 4GB memory card filled with 5-6 movies and some songs and I see no noticeable lag.

Maybe a defective phone? Try using it without the memory card first.

If it still lags, then backup and do a master reset.

If it still lags, then go flash it.

If it still lags then your phone is defective.

try reformatting the card first, other people have experience problems with their phone once they put a memory card in each one different but once they have reformatted the memory card that usually solves their problem

What brand is the memory card? Gigaware? They make pretty cheap stuff...when I say cheap I mean stuff that is financially cheap and sucks. Gigaware cards usually don't play well with this phone.

If the phone works fine without the memory card, it might be the card. Try using a different card and see if it lags.

Reformat the card with your pc. Full format using fat32. Put it back in your phone to format again and create the folders. Then try adding one category at a time again. The phone does take time to index all the media files. Possibly this is the cause. Or somewhere you have bad files.

You can also do a scandisk of the card to see if it has errors.
