The built in camera killed my data! :evil:
I was playing around with the features of the camera, then the screen started to turn whiter, and whiter, and whiter.
I poked the reset button to do a soft reset, but when the MDA restarted, it has actualy done a HARD RESET!
all my data is gone.

The contacts, and other things are in the outlook on the PC.
BUT, the call records are gone...
and I desperatly needed the number from it.

Let it be a warning to all!
DO NOT USE CAMERA!!![/b]

Vosh,

That has happened to me too. :x :x :x :x
You better look at your memory. I had so many applications installed at the time that happened to me. It crashed like the world trade center.

This is the problem of small memory with so much available and good applications out there. But the Magician works like magic for heavy phone users. A combination of a Phone with PDA. Not a PDA with phone.

make the best out of it. It is a great phone. OR Modify the ROM. + 27 MB.

I am sorry to hear you have lost your data.

Is there any program to restore backup/data from the pc?

And, there is a little internal application called xBackup. I think we should use it regularly.

Regards,
Arto.

I have the smae problem with my Jam. Firstly, the power on/off button changed to hard reset button. I mean ervrytime I press the power button, it automatically hard reset my Jam. After I got it serviced, the camera shot continuously right after power on. Finally, the serviceman said it was the circuit error and could not be repaired and I got it replaced. So hope you can have it replaced, too.

Dont go in for the replacement yet... set your camera's default memory location to internal memory the delay in writing to SD Card sometimes creates problem
