Default 2 times a day

I always pull mine in the morning when I hop in the shower. By the time I am out it has restarted and it almost never freezes.

How about you?
I got my Pearl on the day it came out for T-Mobile and have only ad to do it once when a game froze. Other than that it has worked great :D

Softreset does it for me. It's the best app out there. I use it once a week and on weekends do open upthe battery cover to clear out any speck of dust that sneaked it. Too anal about keeping my unit clean

It's been so long that I can't remember the last time I had to pull my battery. Mine just works flawlessly.

Very rarely -- essentially only if I uninstall an app that requires a reset.

My 7100 required a battery pull every week to 10 days after I upgraded the OS to be able to use the Zen theme. The 8100 is much better.

Almost never--though if Im upgrading OS's I do it. Otherwise I use soft reset about ever 7-10 days and that works fine. I havent ever had my 8100 totally freeze up on me.

I have enjoyed terrific performance from my 8100 and have not had to pull the battery. Nor do I use soft reset.

Nothing that is man-made is without flaw.

Softreset works well after app installs.

I never have to, but I do it just to reset it, as I do not have soft reset so I just do it once a day or twice a day for resets.

Keep getting SIM card error...
Get your phone replaced. A friend of mine had the same problem, and a replacement fixed it.

I pull mine almost once a day, sometimes more when JiveTalk has a problem connecting. Come to think about it - yep there we go, just pulled the battery! It's a good day!
