take out your battery for sometime and then reinsert it

if it doesnt work repair ur software with pc companion or seus

(without connecting your mobile first do the setup) do as follow
pcc>support zone> update software> software repair( written with blue)

seus ( SONY ERICSSON UPDATE SERVICE)  http://dl-www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/110/61/1323075336/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.12.5.exe

download it and install it on pc and follow the on screen instructions

if you want to change the font use Handcent SMS, it won't change the font of the system but it will allow you to use the font that you want on the messaging app

i dont have a backup of my contacts. is there any way that i can do a back up now.  because the pcc is saying that my personal data such as contacts, messages,etc will be overwritten during an update.
