Battery removal loses personal settings

Today I removed my battery temporarily, and when I replaced it, I found that I had lost all my personalized settings.  My background was the initial out-of-the-box display, and all my individual pages and shortcuts were gone.  In their place were all those things you get when the Incredible is first powered up.  Last week I did get my 4.06 and 4.08 updates, and other than going through a factory reset and losing all my applications, replacing all my apps and rebuilding all my pages seemed to be behind me.  Removing the battery today was the only activity I did.  I didn't loose any of my reloaded apps, just their shortcuts.   Calling Verizon produced only one comment that perhaps I had received an unannounced fix/patch from HTC and that until I removed the battery it didn't activate.  Has anyone experienced this issue??

I removed the battery while trying to clear some debris that had fallen into its speaker opening.  I had been experiencing a rattling sound in its audio and found a couple pieces of metal?  had gotten inside my phones' speaker opening.  I used a piece of Scotch tape to remove them, since they had stuck themselves onto the speaker screens' mesh.  I had taken the battery out just as a safety precaution during the extraction process.  I also remember that when I did a power down of the phone that it took more than a minute to shut down, which I know isn't normal. 
Another strange thing was that after I observed the problems with losing all the shortcuts and all, that I proceeded to go back in and change my background back to what I wanted it to be.  But just for kicks I did a power / restart  to see if my stuff might come back before having to rebuild all my pages.  When it powered back up it had reverted back to the default startup background.  I did this two more times before calling Verizon, just to confirm it's repeatability.  Wouldn't you know that when I had the Verizon tech on the line from my house phone and I went through the exact same procedure of the power /restart, the background stayed unchanged.  But then that's Murphy's' law isn't it?

  • Nokia 7610 Supernova loses personal settings on re...

    Hi,
    Yesterday I purchased the Nokia 7610 Supernova.And if I restart the phone, it goes back to default settings (factory settings).Not only do I have to change the language but I also have to redo my profile settings.
    Is there any solution for this ?
    I reside in Pune/India.
    Thanks.

    yes that is a very good question. I am not too familiar with the supernova's hence my hesitation. usually when a phone needs an update it is the only way to do it unless your phone is capable of FOTA updates, which i am not sure either it is, the fota update is firmware over the air update. i know this is not really helpful, but it sure sounds like you will need to get yourself a cable as i can't imagine that supernova's will not continue to be updated. unless it is capable of FOTA.

  • How to chenge Personal Settings in erecruitment

    Hi,
    this has nothing to do with personalisation at all - this is simple the anchor mapping in the CAP business component where the standard default value is retrieved.
    And as long the CAP business component is still open/active the current filter is valid.
    If you would like to have a different but fixed default filter you could do some own coding there.

  • My G5 loses its settings!

    Sometimes when I restart my G5 I lose the settings for some things, the start page in Safari, the Dock i reset to how it was when I first installed it and all my program windows loses the way I set them up.
    What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    I read your post wrong. Your problem is on your G5 & not your laptop. The laptop has a rechargable battery, but your G5 does not. Look in your G5 Users Manual for the battery type.
    For reference, here's some helpful laptop sites.

  • To continue connecting to your website, you must repair or remove its administrative settings

    Hello.
    When trying to connect to my website, I'm getting a prompt saying the files appear to have been recently moved.....yadayada. I realise it's like this since we have changed to a new host since I see our old one there correct? OK-so my question is what happens after I click that button that says to remove the administrative settings for your website and continue connecting?
    I've been told to update our website and I don't have a whole lot of knowledge about it. I do connect to it at work through ftp for uploading pix and access to cpanel but that's about it.
    The person that did the site no longer works with me, but I know that he used Contribute3 (Macromedia) for at least some of the site, so I'm assuming the new Contribute will work.
    I really don't want to screw things up clicking that button and somehow mess up our site.
    Thanks for the help!
    Jim

    Thanks very much Dominic:
    I was able to open that cthubxxxxx.csi file in text editor and I assume I just put in http://www.liquidweb.com (in place of our old host in at least 3 spots) since they are our new host? As far as the IP addres goes, where do I get that or find it? Is it the IP address for the host (liquidweb)? I assume I call them for this information?
    Just one other question:
    I noticed on the cthubxxxxx.csi file it says macromedia_dreamweaver_hub. I assume that means the site was made with dreamweaver? I assume I will be able to edit with Contribute?
    Thanks again for your help-
    Jim

  • How do I find the dir with personal settings ?

    Hi all,
    I can find the user's home directory and the FM install directory but not (yet) the dir where personal settings are stored. On my system this is C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\FrameMaker\10 but I this depends on the login name, Frame version and possibly Windows version as well.
    Is there an easy method or property to get to this directory ?
    Thanks
    Jang

    Jang,
    What a coincidence, I had to deal with this just recently.
    With FrameScript it would be  Session.UserSettingsDir
    But the ExtendScript interface does not allow easy access to as many properties as there are, so you have to question the list of all session properties and then find the one you want. I created a function to handle this, bhut currently used it only with this call:
    getAppProperty(Constants.FP_UserSettingsDir);
    I would gladly accept any hints to improve this function.
    - Michael
    PS: At the computer of one of my colleagures the call to app.GetProps() crashes FrameMaker.
    function getAppProperty(pvNum) {
              var lvProps = app.GetProps(), lvValue;
              for (var i=0; i < lvProps.length; i++) {
        if (lvProps[i].propIdent.num == pvNum) {
          switch (lvProps[i].propVal.valType) {
            case Constants.FT_Integer:  // 1
              lvValue = lvProps[i].propVal.ival; // does it work?
              break;
            case Constants.FT_String:  // 3
              lvValue = lvProps[i].propVal.sval;
              break;
            default:
              lvValue = lvProps[i].propVal.sval;
              break;
          return lvValue;
              return false;

    Hello everyone.  I am looking at buying a fifth generation iPod Touch and my father gave me the idea of giving him my third generation iPod Touch.  How do I go about removing my personal data, including my Apple ID from the device?  When I get the new iPod, I want to have my existing Apple ID set up on the new device.  Will my father be able to add an Apple ID to my third generation iPod Touch once he has created his own Apple account?

  • Enjoy Purchase order - Personal settings v Vendor Master fields

    We want to use Personal settings to default certain fields but want fields from the vendor master to take prioirty.... can we change the field selection available to users or can we switch off personal settings, or change the priority so if payment terms maintains at vendor level, these take prioity over personal setting ones!

    Dear Keith,
    You can try it in your system, i told you as per standard SAP, so we talk about SAP design, and for me, it make sense if the personal setting is overriding the vendor master setting, because the vendor master (purchasing data) also just for default data,and SAP give personal setting in order to make default data under user level, so the personal setting is only effected for the user, not all user that using the transaction

  • How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the "replacement" face from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the face. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the face from picture B to cover the face on A
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and face B on a separate layer

  • Personal settings of Batch user

    Hi All,
    Scenario: Payment term in vendor master(Purchasing &accounting view)  is P124  while POs which are getting created for this vendor via batch jobs are having a  payment term P125. Requirement is that Paymnt term in PO should come from Vendor master.
    I guess P125 is getting defaulted from ME21N --> Personal settings.
    How do we change the Personal settings of a batch User. Do I need to check the variant of that batch job?

  • Lost al .pages and .numbers docs , iphoto and office programs won't open after changing: auto startup in: startup with password. all personal settings are also gone

    After i changed this setting: autologin. into login with password i restarted the computer.
    it started up with a blank personal surrounding. also my .pages and .numbers documents were gone, personal settings gone, iphoto won't open and office programs wo'nt open.
    in finder i can find several .doc documents and i can see that all my pictures are still on the system, But i can't open them.
    i was so stupid not to use time machine. But is there way to recover the system with my documents or something??
    please help.
    System Imac i5 intel 21.5 inch
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 (11D50b)

    Nope, without any backup they're probably gone for good. If you want you can purchase some data recovery software such as Data Rescue. I hope this may be a lesson why it's critical to backup your system, Time Machine is a good place to start.
    BTW when posting please use proper grammar, it's difficult to read a post when no caps are used.
    Good luck!

    New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

    The built-in guest user account will not do this. Simply create a new standard account and call it "Guest" or "Guest Users" or whatever you like.
    Go to System Preferences > Users& Groups, click "+" to make a new account.
