I think I discovered the cause of my "DOA" Q9m's - it is the use of NewsBreak, a RSS reader, particularly when using the Yahoo! RSS feeds. I used it for the first time on Sunday night on my 4th Q9m and got the same result - a total lock up or stuck loop stating there was an error with Yahoo! and with instructions to hit "Ok" and then the error screen would immediately reappear. I was able to do a hard reset as usual because nothing else works, but I have learned my lesson, all of my programs and CAB files are on the Storage Disk, so it didn't take too long to get up and running again. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with Verizon Tech Support and they in turn called Motorola and they have no record of this program causing this type of problem. Suffice to say, I am no longer going to risk running this particular program, even though the software authors and this site say it is compatible with the Q9m.
Anyone else have the same issues with the use of NewsBreak?
Perhaps someone could start a thread with what software NOT to use with the Q9m or is "Harzardous to your Q9m"
