My T68 switched itself off, when I switched it back on it had:-
Themes - No more items (not even original SE)
My Pictures - No more items (not even original SE)
My sounds - No more items (not even original SE)
If I go to Settings => Sounds & alerts => Ring signals it says List is empty.
Also all of the words I added to my T9 dictionary have disappeared!!
Luckily it has reatained all my phone numbers and although quite useless it has retained all hi scores for games!!
Any idea what may have caused this? (I have had it 11 months R2E006 prgCXC125319).

Somehow the phone did a master reset. I don't know how this could happen, but the result you describe shows clearly that something like this occured.

Hey,

Maybe a software upgrade will fix it.
Peace out!

nah it cant have been a master reset, bcoz that deletes all numbers aswell and it leaves the original themes, pics, sounds etc.

An upgrade won't restore those lost data. Hmmm, may i ask what you were doing before it rebooted?

Your problem seems like a dream-come-true situation for me. Iwould download only stuff of my choice.

Twice yesterday the phone rang, I pressed YES and it switched off. The first time it did it was when everything got deleted.
Hasn't done it since.

the software is probably corrupted..suggest u do the following:

1. Do a master reset and see if problem still persists...be sure to back up your data 1st

2. upgrade the firmware....

good luck....

Over a meg free. Don't want to do a master reset in case I lose all my numbers. My phonebook isn't backed up!!
