well you should have all your info stored on your sim card. you can retrieve the info faster also on line you can send info from online to your phone

hi
i had the same problem, if you have tmobile you have to have the sidekick package somehow having that keeps all your info from disaperaring. i lost all the stuff 3 times so i called and then was told. i was kinda mad, its an extra 20.00 a month, but i think its worth it now,

If you are still having this problem try importing your contacts from your sim card. Also always store your numbers to your sim card so they never erase. Hope this helps =) 1  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

Everything on a sidekick (with a data plan) is saved on a Danger server.
Don't worry , it will come back.
It happens all the time.

FYI if you lose ANY info on the device, contacts pictures taken, ringtones or whatever AND you have the sk data plan your info is backed up and stored on the Danger servers. nothing is saved to your device, is all flash memory. if you dont have the data plan, save your contacts to your sim card cause your info will erase from the device if its powered off or the battery is removed, or if the phone restarts. if you dont have the data plan and lose your info...
