[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
you have some reading and searching to do regarding the backing up of texts and all that stuff...it can be done and the answers are somewhere on this forum. you just need to use search to find it.

as far as starting over...you sound new to this so until you read all the stickies at the top of this forum...id go with option 2

FIRST THINGS FIRST. SINCE APPARENTLY YOU MISSED EVERY POST (ALL THE ONES LABELED STICKY) ON THE FIRST PAGE. READ THIS BEFORE GOING FURTHER SO YOU DONT HURT YOUR PHONE OR YOURSELF.

option 1. - Upgrade the rom to one of the 6.1 versions. you can find them with detailed instructions in the stickies. these roms are flat out better than the windows mobile 5 or 6 that you are most likely running. but please read about them and their installation before attempting the upgrade. also read ALL of the stickies to avoid us ganging up on you and and beating you like a hobo for asking "Why am I getting Error: 270".

option 2. - just hit the clear storage button (start > accesories > clear storage) and it will wipe out anything you have saved or installed to the phone and it will be just like when you took it out of the box. this will get rid of your memory issue.

as far as low memory....do you have a ton of stuff installed? did you save every text over the last year and a half?

edit: i cant belive im doing this...but here are some places to start.

Kavanas 6.1 ROM

Rickwyatts version of Kavanas 6.1 ROM

Here is for when you want to come on here and post "ERROR 270! HELP!!!"

Then when you get past that you will come on here and go "MY KEYBOARD IS ALL MESSED UP". for that you are gonna wanna click here --> Keyboard Fix

Once you get passed there... you will definitely come back to say "hey guys! great rom! but i cant send a text, mms or get to the net! zomg my life suck!!!!" click here when that happens and read what it says in green.

i cant belive i just took away all your fun in searching...you musta caught me on a good night...

without beartard here im getting weak!

by the way..all those links i posted ARE THE FIRST THINGS AT THE TOP OF THIS FORUM. READ ALL THE POSTS THAT SAY "STICKY" NEXT TO THEM

how could you possibly miss every post on the first page of this forum?

between the time of your first post and second post you could have found all those stickies and had the phone upgraded....did you really try hard to find the answers? c'mon you can tell me...im not gonna get mad..i already gave the answers to ya.

btw...im not trying to belittle you..think of it as a hazing. a lot of people have put work into making that Excalibur Wiki and the mods have done a great job of making the most common issues STICKIES. when people come on after joining a day ago and have 2 post to their name after owning the phone for a year and a half....then ask many things, all of which have been answered many many dozens of times... it just annoys me. mods spend time to make the stickies of the important things...and people like you dont even bother looking. you spent 2 hours waiting for someone to guide you...when you could have read everything in that time...anyways..im not bashing...just sayin in the future, do some reading or use the search button that i linked above before making a new post like this and looking (to the normal lurkers) silly. anyways. goodluck
