tmail.exe on old moto q using 96% of cpu.suggestions anyone?

[cmdekker]

over the last two days i have run into problems with my motoq. my phone runs on windows 6.  i text on this phone, but do not have email or a data plan (i purchsed it when data plans weren't mandatory). since yesterday the tmail.exe has been running at 91-99% thus freezing up my texting capabilities and any other function i try to use. my battery used to last for 3 days, now it isn't even lasting for a day. i have pulled the battery and left it out for about 5 minutes. when i put it back in, the phone responds well until i try to text, then it freezes again.

has verizon changed something?

has windows changed something? 

or is it just time for a new phone? 

any advice appreciated.

thanks

Try dialing *228 and select option 2.

Yeah its time for a new phone.  I'm in the same boat with WMP 6 on a HTC Touch Pro 2.  Holding out till the fall for Windows Phone 8.
