Nice problem...Solvable?

I have had a Nokia 6630 for quite sometime... But today I tried the Memory manager by some third party. I killed some threads and compressed some memory heaps, just to see what happens, and voila, something actually happened. But it wasnt something that most of u will want to happen to your phones. I couldnt press any number on my keypad. If I press one, the phone goes on and restarts itself. Cant write a message even. Any solution to this? Any of you guys encountered this? :redface:

No, as we don't go randomly about messing with things we don't know about/understand. At least not without first making a complete backup and having knowldedge about how to recover, if you mess up. 😉

Try a full reformat. Power off phone. Remove SIM. Remove memory card. Plug in AC (or do it with full battery). Press down the green/talk key + '3' + '*' and keep them down. While they're down, turn the power on (and keep on keeping the keys down). When the phone has booted up, release the keys. All your data (contacts, messages, settings, pictures, etc., in phone memory) will be gone and the phone will be, more or less, in the same state it was in, when it left the factory where it was made.
