First Post! Big problem! Please help.

First off,

Hello everyone. My name is Jared. I'm about 2 weeks old in BlackBerry age - aka, I'm a noob. I created this thread b/c I have a problem with my new BB Curve. I installed the BB Desktop Manager, and I was installing Hangman from my desktop. However, the newbie that I am misinterpreted the install screen, and deselected the following (thinking they would be saved, not erased during the process): vznavigator, espn, cnn, cb.com. When the transfer started and it read 'deleting..' I disconnected the cable hoping to save my mistake. I got a white screen on the BB, and the LED was red without blinking. The clock icon wasn't moving, so I took the battery out to reboot.

When it booted back up is when I noticed something was wrong, the following things were now missing from my BB:
*Browser Icon
*VZNavigator
*CNNMobile
*ESPN
*CrackBerry.com

Now, coincidentally enough I did a backup using BB Manager tonight. However, when I restored back to my file, the applications didnt reappear.

Please help as I have no idea what to do! Do I need to bring it back to Verizon, or is this something I can fix?

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

By the way, it sucks to introduce myself this way, but I'll see you guys around the forum! :)

It sucks that I can't give you the advice you need but welcome aboard. I know the next poster should be able to lead you in the right direction.

Try this before you reload your OS: Options / Advanced Options / Host Routing Table / Menu / Register Now
It will probably bring back the Browser and the other web links. You can reinstall CrackBerry.com. I don't know about VZNav.

Crap, sorry.

I should've read through the FAQs like you're supposed to before posting.

Haha, I'm off to a great start here.

One good thing I've learned is never to disconnect until the transfer is done. :) By the way, welcome to the crack!
