My Green light keeps flashing?

steve247 · 01-13-04, 05:31 AM

A few days back, the gleen light (power button) started flashing for no reason. Checked my notifications/alarms/tasks/inbox/calender to see if there was something there (I'm not sure what I was even looking for actually:) Powered the thing off, then turned it back on. It continued to blink. In fact, it's blinking right now. Can someone with this? Is this thing going to blow-up?

By turning the thing off, did you mean you simply pressed the power button? This is definitely worth at least a soft reset, for now. If that doesn't help, write back. Hope that helps.

Check your SETTINGS for notifications, and then try a SOFT Reset.

A soft reset? Please explain.

Press the "dimple" immediately below the Record Button (with your finger, not your stylus - using your stylus can damage your rubber grip), this is a Soft Reset, it is just like rebooting your desktop PC. It will clear out your caches and solve many myriad of problems.

It's a good idea to do one at least once a week and prior to AND just after any program installation.

Actually, on the X3 the "dimple" reset button is on the back of the Axim towards the bottom.

ooops, my bad!!! (again).

Wish there were some way to differentiate an X5 Thread from an X3 Thread on the View New Posts Page. Something like the Red Classifieds, only in the Thread Subject Link.

I just open New Posts, start reading Subjects and open (and answer) those that seem interesting or that I feel I can help out with. RARELY do I ever take note of which Forum it is posted in.

I'm sure you've noticed, but it does show the Forum at the top of each thread when you open it.

Thanks, this should do the trick. I'll let you know how it goes.
