Phone has about a 1 to 3 second delay on the touch, she has been misbehaving again. (Right now she is fine, but she was acting all 60 IQish before)

How do I clear the cache again? Hopefully that will make her feel better and start acting like a premium device once again.

Get an app called Clean Master, free btw, and let it do the cleanup.

You can also go to settings/applications and click on an app and clear its cache.

I mean, the one when you have to power down, then hold the volume buttons, etc. That method.

How do I clear Cache Partition on my device?

This will remove any temporary files that may be causing the problem, but will not delete your files or settings.

1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .

2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS

3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT

Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.

4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)

5. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key, then tap and release the VOL UP key.

Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 5, try a force reboot by pressing the power Key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.

6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)

7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to wipe cache partition and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.

8. The device will then perform the partition wipe

9. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT

11. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .

Jeez thank you, now I have more than 10MGs left in RAM! Back to 300MG. And running smoother again.

For such a "smart" phone, wouldn't be nice to have a quicker way to do this?

Thank you again.

That's the best Motorola can do? That was painful!
