Hiya, first post here, but here goes. Ok a few days ago my when i turned on my phone i started to get errors on every application i wen ton, e.g i went into messaging and i would get the error 'messaging:system error'. i went into settings and would get the error 'settings:system error' however it would still load whatever it was i wanted up. Also when i went into N-
Gage arena, contacts or anywhere where i entered text it would only enter numbers and not letters. I scoured google to find a solution and came across a site saying delete the file 'Firstboot.dat' so i did......This solved all my problems....till now. I dont get the errors, only in services which wont let me on the net, but the only letting me enter digits is there again. I have tried deleting the 'firstboot.dat' a number of times but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Thankyou

Matt.

I'd recommend a full reset - if that doesn't help there's not a lot else you can do.

Thanks for that tried a full reset but didnt work, then i read a thread on here about the phone won't reset with fonts installed, uninstalled them and did a reset again and it worked, phone is back to normal.

Thanks again :icon14:

Matt
