Default Loading Hourglass, then all messages gone???

Please Login to Remove!

My phone has done this twice in the past 2 days. I will go to use it, unlock the keys, and the hourglass will start to spin in the middle of the screen. It wont let me do anything for a while. Then when it does stop spinning, all my messages and my call log have been deleted somehow.
This seemed to happen after I downloaded Guitar Hero III Mobile, idk if its just a coincidence or if it is linked.
This phone is new, got it on July 31st, my second one after the first one had a cracked camera lens. Anybody know whats going on?

It sounds like you are very low on memory.

What is your file free Options > Status?

Pull the battery and check again. Post your results back here.

Also, follow these links to prevent this issue from happening.

Before I took the battery out, it said File Free = 0 Bytes
After I took the battery out, it said File Free = 14507042 Bytes

What does this mean?

That means you had no free memory available. The device started deleting messages and call logs to try to make available space on the device.

Refer to the links posted.

Welcome to the forums and good luck
