yes, there is...my case back in the day, when jumping from walkman 2.0 to 3.0 instalations, i got in such a problem...i was unable to install anything at all! i always got the file is corrupted message

only way to solve it: format c drive...worked for me

nevertheless...i never got this problem again, because i started being more carefull when doing the mods...of course, i already got into another sort of problems, like reboot loops, but that is always explained by some mistake when copying/moving files

Is there any reliable record of "modding" causing such serious defect?


No big deal to mess system files, as c: drive is now wide open

Well... certainly... I know you true phoneheads are prepared to risk re-installing the phone any time a new exciting mod comes around, but what about those people who are less experienced and/or devoted?

Okay, I'm just preparing the grounds for the new Tweak Peaks that does the modding like it was provided by SE

Menu - Control panel - Other - Master Reset
(you will lose all personal data, apps, games, mods, etc)

It's more or less the same.

One difference I noticed earlier between format and master reset (on my P1i) is that a format sets the factory defaults to the correct values, while a master reset doesn't, at least for the backlight settings.

Format: 65℅
Master reset: 90℅

There could be other differences too, but I haven't noticed any.
