5530XM disconnecting from WLAN and not showing hom...

My 5530XM is acting up again (v.11 firmware). The symtopms are random disconnects from WLAN and, after doing a soft reset, unable to put shortcuts on the home screen (using the Shortcuts theme).
I really think the problem is with the memory card because I can't turn the phone on with the card inside.
Is there a way to scan/repair problems with the memory card? I really, really want to avoid a hard reset. Last time I did that, I lost all my apps from the memory card (I have the Games Edition).
I can try using PC Suite or Ovi Suite to back up my memory card apps, but I don't trust the suites that much. What I'd like to do is drag and drop my memory card apps to another location in my PC, but I cannot see the memory card apps in Windows Explorer.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I backed up my data. Although my dialer shortcut stopped working, doing the red/green/camera trick allowed me to dial *#7370# . By the way, I had removed my memory card prior to dialing *#7370#.
Looks like things are working better (dialer works), but my new concern is that when I put the memory card back in, I get "preparing memory card." This freaks me out because last time I saw that, I lost ALL the games that came preinstalled on the 5530 (Games Edition). I understand that I backed up my files, but I have this weird feeling that the games don't get backed up. I pulled the memory card out, put it inside an SD adapter and there are readable files in there, but the preinstalled games may be hidden.
Where are the preinstalled apps on the memory card? I just want to back them up manually, to have peace of mind.
I used PC Suite, by the way.
Thanks for all the help.

    Hi blaze469,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the iPhone is getting disconnected. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support
    Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
    Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Check for sources of potential interference.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. 
    Cheers,
    Mario

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • TS3694 i think itunes  has removed my iphone software. because now not showing home screen. when i tried to restore my phone there generated an error no is 1015. please help me how can i recover my iphone again?

    i think itunes  has removed my iphone software. because now not showing home screen. when i tried to restore my phone there generated an error no is 1015. please help me how can i recover my iphone again?

    From the article which you posted your question from:
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed.   Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

    Of the request and IMEI number. Is there a way from the phone i can verify it was unlocked?
    If AT&T e-mail says it is unlocked, then believe it is so. Insert non-AT&T SIM inside and after backing up restore in iTunes again. Unlock gets attached.
    You can check the status of the unlock request on AT&T web-site.

  • Itouch goes through restore process then will not show home screen

    itouch goes through restore process then will not show home screen. Only apple logo shows and flashes periodically.

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
    - If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Use BCC.   That's blind carbon copy.   And copy paste the address into the BCC field.  It really depends what e-mail program you use how to enable BCC.

    From paper?  Do you have a digital image of it on your iPhone?
    "Photo tray"?  What do you mean here?  The iPhone does not have a photo tray.  Printers have trays.
