??????????

Symbian OS Currupt????

But the os resides in ROM (Read Only Memory). So how can it gets currupt???

Maybe some of the applications you have installed got currupt...
If you want to back-up applications installed u can do so by Nokia PC Suite.

No 6820 is based on Symbian Series 40 Operating System.
And AFAIK In all mobiles OS resides in ROM, so it can't get currupt unless ROM is physically damaged. And I didn't find any solution to backup the OS.

If something happens to your mobile (or its OS) the best thing to do is to take it to Service Centre.
