Go into the log file and see on what item is hanging. Is is a specific contact or event? Almost always you’ll find it is just one corrupted record causing the sync to fail. Delete that record. Stop and restart your synch software and all should be well. You can just re-enter the offending record by hand when you are finished.

Palm Blog Treo 700 Series Software Updates says Palm is aware of the problem and is working on a solution.

Bad hack is better than no hack . . .
We’ve determined that, if I don’t make (or take) any calls after my most recent reboot, data transmission seems to work fine. . .

It’s a lousy fix but might help you in a pinch until a patch or real fix comes through

The Verizon updates have been pulled because of ‘Error 3000′ messages. The message says they are investigating and will repost the patch as soon as they are able. No patch, no work arounds yet from Palm yet either. Technically ‘Error 3000′ just means the network is busy. In the real world it is used as a catch-all for lots of errors.

Several Verizon users are getting ‘Error 3000′ when they try to connect to the internet on their Treos after doing the 1.10 update.

I did some digging around and a small number of Sprint users are also getting the message. Some of the postings on forums go back to January though, long before the update. Many users are also not using Treos.

Sanyo users report success setting the phone to 1x rather than EVDO. Some users report success after having Sprint reset their phones.

Error Code 3000/Network Timeout/Please try again thread

Some users report success after powering down the Treo, popping the battery and restarting them. ( note this posting is from Dec 06 )

A Sanyo user in NZ reports fixing this error by re-inputting all his network information

There are also Rumors that Palm is working on a patch to fix this. No official notice here just rumors so far.

My phone is not getting this error so I can not test these for you. I suggest trying to shut down the phone, pop the battery trick first. Checking and double checking all network phone settings are set. If anyone finds something works here for him/her leave a note for those who will read this after you. And keep an eye on the Palm support page in case a patch does arrive

It looks like Network Error 3000 is often on the phone companies end of things. Getting them to erase and redo your phone programming on their end of things will often get rid of the error.

To fix this go into Google Maps and hit the menu key; Select Options -> Erase All and perform a soft reset on your phone. This seems to fix most people’s problems.

You should also set Blazer to clean out the cache on exit Menu; Options -> Preferences -> Advanced and check the ‘Clear cache on exit’

Letting caches especially those related to internet usage get large seems to be the root of many Treo online problems.

Google Maps for Palm is now at version 1.1.1 update if you are having trouble and not up to the newest version.

I had trouble with the download using Firefox on OSX. I had to ‘shift’ + click on the link and select ‘save link’ to download the prc file.
