    No problem...press Home, then Menu. Select Scenes and choose e.g. Work...
    Set it up as you want and then repeat the above and for safeties sake save your new page as e.g. Blondie.

    Good news on sorting out your bit of bother. (Please let us know what caused it, as Nekro Man has already requested.)

    Just in case you are still in trouble, have a look at the following thread, and specifically the post by partyatmygaff quoted

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055984123

    "If you did a NANDROID backup just use that. If not just run this RUU file

    http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Brav...984_signed.exe

    You start up your phone in FASTBOOT mode by holding down the back button as it boots up and then plug it in via USB and then simply open the RUU exe.

    After that you should be back to stock."

    The shipped rom listed would more than likely get you back to a clean slate. I installed it in order to unroot, in preparation for froyo...and it worked fine.

    I performed a soft reset last night and that seemed to solve the problem, phone worked fine for a few hours, however when I tried to use it this morning the same 'Force Close' message was back. I reset the phone to factory defaults and then restored from a backup. I also downloaded the latest HTC software, all seems fine now but I will monitor over the next few hours to see if the problem returns.

    Obviously the previous post was written by my significant other....he's trying to help me out! thanks for the reply's lads but you might as well be talking french as it means nothing to me....did i mention i'm a girl and blonde:D At the moment we're back to the original htc screen and have preety much everything that i always had except i seem to have lost all my calender info!! Really need that as all my dates for family/ events/ appointments etc were on there:eek: Anyone know how i can get that back?my SO saved everything on my backup folder but we can't seem to get back my original calender.

    hi lads just wanted to update you.....have my desire back to where i like it again after spending hours getting it sorted. it would appear that it was a weather app that i downloaded that gave all the problems....it took 3 days to download ( that should have been warning enough but hay...as i said...what do i know). lesson learnt anyway and from now on i will back up all my info to pc on a regular basis. the only data i lost in the end was all my calender entries and my note entries and my diary:( these were all app's that i had downloaded so obviously these cannot be backed up/saved to pc. (if there is a way would someone enlighten me!!)
    Thanks again for replies....be lost without boards.
