Has the trackball on your Sidekick Slide stop scrolling properly?  Do you have a hard time moving trackball and when you do it doesn’t go where you want? 

Frustrated?

Think you need a new trackball for your Sidekick Slide?

Well, more than likely you don’t.  You just need to clean the sidekicks trackball.  This will take care of most of track ball issues.

Follow the procedure below and it enjoy a shiny, almost new like trackball today.

1: Take a deep breath and blow on the trackball area, rotate and do it again.  This may blow any particles that are blocking the sensors. If you spit a lot, make sure you have a handy wipe nearby!

2: This requires a Q-tip and some alcohol.  Turn off your sidekick, wet the end of the q-tip, and gently clean the trackball while rotating.  Use the dry tip of the q-tip to dry off and clean again with another alchohol dipped  swab. Let dry for a minute and try it out.  If this doesn’t work then try again.

Here is a video showing the cleaning technique.
