How many days has it been since you rebooted your phone.
So anyone who has installed iStat post a screenshot.
I have only edited out the identifying stuff about my phone.

I go about 7-8 days before something strange happens or my phone freezes, forcing me to do a reset.
 
Anywhere from 5 hours to a day. I'm Jailbroken so it uses up much more memory. And when I reboot, I have to wait 2 minutes before my iPod will fully boot up.
 
3 days 20 hours. Last time I'm pretty sure an app reset it, I think genius cam-it's very buggy.

I only reboot when I install or upgrade an app.

There have been very few times since I got the phone that a software glitch has forced me to reboot.
 
Same. I think the last time I rebooted the phone was the last firmware update whenever that was. My phone never freezes or runs slow otherwise.

So, like, do you not install ANY apps? Or do you just not launch them?

Or do you only use the really simple ones like the flashlights and levels?
 
I usually reboot every morning when I wake up. Figure, what the hell. It seems to make my iPhone happy and it's no skin of my back.

On the first 2 3.0 betas I was rebooting like crazy but the 3rd brought some serious stability so I've gone back to my once-a-day routine.

Once or twice a day.
 
Geez, you really need to download iStat. It'll clear the memory a LOT faster.
I have it. I use it primarily to check on my Mac while I'm out (temps, mostly) because I've found it to be rather unstable when used to free the iPhone's memory. On several occasions it has made my iPhone completely hang, requiring a force-restart. :mad:
