Phone is frozen — Nokia Numbered S60 5.0 (Nokia 5800, Nokia 5230, Nokia 5530)

I purchased Nokia 5800 XpressMusic about 5 hours ago and everything was working great until the time I renamed a couple of mp3s (on the phone) that I copied from Vista PC to the mobile using the USB cable.

Windows explorer got stuck in the Vista PC and had to force kill it. I then unplugged the USB cable and noticed that the phone read "USB connection active' when I went to the music application. Other features were working fine.

So I tried restarting the phone and shut it off. When I turned it on, I still a part of the progress bar w/ the text "USB connection active" and see some wierd bars..nothing works, no application nothing, no homepage.

Any fix :con?

I left the phone like that during the night and in the morning gave it a call from landline. To my surprise, the mobile did ring. Then I turned it off and turned it on and everything is back to normal. Not sure what went wrong 🙄

Need to think twice before connecting it to a PC via USB again..
