Data retention

It is vital to keep your battery charged. Because your T-Mobile MDA III does not have a hard drive, all data and any new programs you install are stored in the RAM. If the battery completely drains, any data or new programs you installed will be erased. Only the default programs that came with the device at the time of purchase will remain.

To prevent this kind of data loss, a portion of the main battery will keep your data safe for 72 hours if your device runs out of power. An additional battery, the internal backup battery, is designed to keep your data safe when you remove the main battery. It will keep the data safe for 20 minutes.

WARNING: Be sure to check that the internal backup battery power remains at least at 50% OR ABOVE before you remove the main battery by tapping > Settings > System tab > Power
