RSS Feed Bug

2 replies · 5,433 views · Started 05 September 2009

I had a N97 and recently just upgraded to firmware v12.
After the upgrade, I restored my backup from memory card (contacts, sms, etc).
Everything works normally just like before I upgraded, but when I look at the home screen widget list, I saw a RSS feed that was already deleted long time ago.
I tried using Web browser to re-add the exact rss feed, loading it on home screen, removing it, then delete from the web browser. It's still there!
I tried clearing the cache, but it does nothing

Anyone has similar situation? I know its not major, but its kind of annoying.

this is the exact same problem im encountering, anyone any ideas on how to delete it from the widget list?

Never EVER restore a backup after a firmware upgrade or de-brand.
It is OK to use the synchronize app for contacts, calendar entries etc, but not the backup/restore utility.

I would recommend you to format your internal memory to get rid of the problems you are now experiencing. ( by dialling *#7370# )
