Xperia X8 :: Software Update Destroyed Personal Data And Phonebook?
Apr 11, 2011
When updating the software, do not send anything that destroy the users personal settings. And do not come with any BS that the programming system requires it. Now I will not accept any updates that require a lot of extra job from me to make safety copies and restore my personal info. No more.
I have run the update and something has gone bad. Not only I've lost all contacts, mails, SMS and so on, but I can't find anywhere the backup that Desktop Manager claimed to have executed while updating.
After update my Xperia x10 to 2.3.3 the phone book is empty, but when i test to send, appaer all contacts tree o four times, any know whats is the problem?.
I instaleted the Backuo & restore utility and the problem d'ont solved
After I updated to 2.1 i cant see the phonebook any longer in my car (BMW 1 serie with IDRIVE and bluetooth). With 1.6 I could chose a contact and then dial directly, or import the phone number (however it was not as great as the old symbian OS where you even could navigate directly to a contact). Is it someone that has any idea of a good app or something that makes this possible (maybe a Symbian simulator. I have also realized that the connection (dB) has decreased with the new OS. I even loos connection on the E4, with this phone (Xperia X10 mini Pro).
I don't have more than (probably 100) entries in my BB phonebook. When I try to add a number from a received call to the book, the phone freezes and needs to be rebooted. When I try to add a number manually it freezes and needs a reboot.
I downloaded the photo editor from BBAW, the one they were giving out for free cause of the outage a while back! I received an update for it and it completely destroyed my operating system on my Torch 9800! All it does it boot up and then reboot now, tried everything but nothing works! I am pissed off this BS happened considering it was a update from RIM! What should I do?
I was having some problems with transfering musics to my Nokia n70, so yesterday I updated my version of the nokia pc suite. Last night everything was working fine, however today in the morning I tried to connect my mobile phone to the computer and it's always showing the same error! Here is what I'm using:
- windows xp professional version 2002 - nokia n70 with a usb cable type CA-53 - nokia pc suite 7.1.40.6
The general error that appears is: "USB Device not recognized" In the Nokia Pc Suite-Get Connected appears "There is no available connection type and therefore connection to the phone cannot be established. The wizard will exit."I already tried to uninstall and install again and to install the drivers separately. I had a look at other threads but didn't find anything about this version of the nokia pc suite.
My one week old e72 came with a scratch under the glass. I have been a bit worried that any pressure on the phone in the future might lead the screen to crack, so to be on the safe side I am having the handset replaced straight away by my mobile network. I am expecting a doorstep exchange in the morning, and they will collect the old phone all boxed up and provide a new sealed e72 in the box.So, I need to delete all my information from the handset and memory card. So far I have formatted the memory card and done a factory reset from the phone menu, then a factory reset as detailed in another thread I found on here (* +3 + call).
I just bought a new Xperia X10i the other day because my old nokia crashed and died. I've never had an android phone or iPhone before so I'm having trouble figuring things out. I couldn't export all my contacts onto my sim card from my old phone because it died, so I've been trying to add them manually. My phonebook is filled with all my contacts from facebook, yet I can't see a way to edit those contacts to add a phone number.
I've only had my phone a few days and I'm trying to get everything formatted but I cannot seem to get pictures on all my contacts.In timescape and my phonebook there are only half a dozen pictures (facebook profile pictures) to my entries and plenty of people in my phonebook who have FB accounts. I've even been through and used their full names to try and help connecting the two.I don't want to add all my friends from FB to my phonebook, just include the pictures of the ones already there. There doesn't seem to be a pattern of the ones that are showing and all the others that aren't.
I'm selling my E63 and so want to clear all my personal data. Removed the memory card and SIM. Done "Restore factory settings" on the phone menu. Done *#7370#. But still when I go into the phone search function, I can find the headers and email addresses of all my old emails that were on there! How do I purge the search results or just properly get rid of ALL my data on the phone?
I never had battery problems with 5.0 but immediately after update to 5.1 stand by battery life is less than 2 hrs, even less with any use. My phone is now basically a brick.
is it possible with some sort of addon or setting to only show my sim contacts in my phonebook, the timescape stuff and all is fine, i just dont want a bunch of peoples emails that i have written once. It is starting to annoy me a bit, so 1. is there a setting i can find on my phone to do it, 2. is there some kind of program/addon to do it or 3. is it possible for you guys to make a softwareupdate so to add the option only to show simcard contacts?
Phonebook every contact has a colour picture next to it completely random with no order whatsoever that I can tell, what is the organisation behind it as it bugs me that its so all over the place
If I have two phone numbers against one contact name. How do I set primary phone number among the two options? I have the latest official SE firmware for x8 in my phone
Got an X10, I just noticed that my phone number doesn't show in my Phone book anymore. I didn't have this problem when my phone was new. But ever-since I delayed my payment on my postpaid plan and my outgoing calls/sms got blocked by my provider my phone number wouldn't show up anymore. Now that I've paid up and have outgoing service again it's still not showing on my phone book.
Upgraded today on work WIFI - went to amazon.com via Chrome on my S5 - his login data was there. Logged in, his CC information, address, etc. all accessible.He does not have access to my phone as I'm on a secure floor at work and my phone never leaves my pocket.
I'm selling one of my 3GS, it is jailbroken 3.1.2 and unlocked. What do I do to safely wipe out my personal information and not loose the jailbreak?I also want to make sure that it is ready for the buyer to use overseas.
My question here is,if I have the unlimited data plan on my iPhone 4S,can I add the personal hotspot feature without changing my data plan? I know that personal hotspot is an extra charge but i'd like to keep my unlimited data while still being able to use the personal hotspot.
Why my Phonebook shows other person information (name, picture, email, etc) as myself? When I tried to remove/edit, it says that "Timescape Plug-in Manager contact information is not editable for this device".
How can I remove that person details so that my contact details including name, picture (sync with facebook), contact number will be appear again?
I have had a problem for last couple of weeks - When I got the phone (around 2mths ago), I created all my main contacts, added their names, numbers and email addresses. So, at least a month goes by, but then one or two contacts start losing their phone numbers (the name and email address remains). I have tried everything from simply entering and saving the number again via the phonebook and even adding the number from text messages sent by the person in question - each time I have ensured that I have clicked 'done' and/or the save symbol. I exit the phonebook, but if I check back later it's been lost again.
This seems to happen with only one or two particular contacts - I am not sure what is unique about them.
I have read the manual re: phonebook, so I am following all of the steps so I am not sure whether or not the phone has a fault.
Can't see the online contacts in the social phonebook (facebook contacts)!! When I click the online contacts filter in the left hand top corner it shows me no contacts!
Having enterred in to the third week of my life with an x10 (Android 2.1) the frustration level is still high, and one thing that is really annoying is the way you pick up a number to dial from your phonebook. When I open up the default Phonebook on the x10 and selct a contact, Mr AAAAA, I am presented with 7 fields with mr AAAAA's numbers: his Home, Work, Mobile, Home Fax, Work Fax, Pager and Main. I do only have one telphone number of mr AAAAA and that is his mobile number that is correctly stored in that field; that means that the other six numberfields are empty. So far, so god.
Since all 7 fields are listed as a selectable option each item in the list become quite thin, approximately 0.5 cm high, and since most grownups on this planet has fingers that are wider than 0.5 cm it requires some precsion to select the right field. This is my problem, when I try to select Mr AAAA's mobile number, the x10 often selects the number besides (below or above) although that field is empty! The x10 then tries to set up a call to a blank number and obviously the call fails (and I am back to the initial screen again).Surely this must be a bug, why is an empty field selectable at all? One can even wonder why it is at all presented in the list of numbers since it is empty; I could understand if the field is selectable if I had pressed the "edit" key but that is not the case. The correct way would be to present all 7 filed although only the fileds contain a number should be selectable and the other dimmed, this standard hotlink concept. I consider this as a bug and wonder if I am the only one with this problem and if someone has found a solution to this problem. More important, is this a bug recognized by Sone Ericsson and is there a solution in the pipeline?
in order to perform a hard reset, the phone has to be turned off, and I can't do that because of the dead screen. My phone still has close to full battery though, so I'm waiting for it to drain off slowly... My question is, will the phone turn on automatically when I eventually charge it with a dead battery.
I dropped my Motorla Atrix MB860 in the water. The touch screen does not work anymore but I would like to erase all my personal data that I had stored on the phone. Is there a way to erase all the data that I had stored on this phone without using the touch screen?
2 weeks ago i put my iphone 4s (bought just a year ago) in to washing machine with clothes. It did work with rice but it did come on with 'Reviveaphone" kit. iPhone is charging and texts are coming through but touch screen not responding. So, I think I've lost the battle in getting my iphone back as it was. I'm going to buy a new iphone. But first I want to back up my data on old iphone to icloud - best way to do this? Also, I then want to delete all my personal data from old iphone - but not sure how to do this with iphone screen not working.
