Default QuickLaunch Device Reset Fix

Hi. The following fix has been reported on another forum to work in getting device reset to work with 5.0xxx.230 and other combinations. If device reset is not working for you you might want to give this a try. I've been getting a lot
of emails saying it actually works. I don't know why it works but thought i'd post it here anyway.

The "fix":
"Go to App World and download app "Quick Search with Google" ( it's free )...after its installed on your phone try Reset Device with QuickLaunch, and see if it works, it does for me... Also, on every reset "Quick Search w/ Google" will have to be restored...just click it and press RESTORE button when it presents itself...and when it restores (it's really fast)...your homescreen (BerryWeather icon) restores also. Crazy you say?? Well I deleted "Quicksearch Google" and my reset device on QuickLaunch stopped working...put it back, and it worked again...did that 3 times withe the same result."

Thanks

There must be something in permissions that Quick Search is setting to allow Quickpull to work. I thought permission set by an app were local not global, but I may be wrong in that assumption.

Default now opera mini 5 not working

My reset function in quick launch now works, but when I am trying to open opera mini 5 I have this error: "Uncaught exception: Unauthorized attempt to monitor key presses." Opera mini 4.2 works fine so there must be a problem with the mini 5 beta. Anyone else have this problem? I am running .238 hybrid.

Cheeta thanks for the tip. This works in the short term. I will be nice to find that line of code that triggers this.

Awesome fix for QL reset! HOWEVER, it doesn't fix my WeatherBug icon.
