Hi. I have a k500i Winter Edition, which I have downloaded some games onto. The problem is, that 2 of them are write-protected, so I cannot delete or move them.

Is there any way to delete them? Or can't I do anything about it?

The BlueTorch and the radiohandsfree comes with it, along with a neckband etc. It is a demo of splintercell, a game called "Fighters," Tennis and Darts.. I would like to delete all those games, as they're just no fun.

Master reset would probably solve this. I didn't know that downloaded games could be write protected. It thought it goes only for predefined items.

Yeah, but I don't want to delete the other items... It would take so long to back them up through IR, and then send them back as well, since I can only send one item at the time.
