True. I should have added, If you use SpbBackup or another utility other than ActiveSync, just do a "custom", "selective", or PIM backup only at this point (you will just be trying to save your contact, msgs, calendar, notes, ect... Don't bother with a FULL or system backup as you will just end up restoring a possible already corrupt registry or such.

Ideally, in the future as I once again learned the hard way, do routine backups while the system is up and running correctly and before installing new tweaks or questionable (non-proven) programs, today plugins, and such. This way you can save a lot of time by having your system restore-able to contain your working programs and tweaks that were already working well.

In your case sebastoklez, it may very well be a hardware - now warrenty issue though but definitely worth trying a hard reset IMO. It is possible if you did any tweaking prior to your issue or installs that after your incident is when the omnia actually did a reset and applied something corrupt as in how my situation was with a bad registry file previously.
