I can tell you that you need to backup all your data and then hard reset (both soft keys depressed while pushing the soft reset button next to the microSD slot). After this happens, you will have to align the screen and go through the Windows prompts. Once you see the Today screen you will see a window pop up saying that customizations are about to run. Before they start, soft-reset the device. Then all the carrier junk keeps from loading. Re-sync to restore your data. If you aren't syncing to a PC then try PIMBackup. Just install it on your memory card and it will save everything you ask it to. Very simple and reliable.

And who is your carrier? You'd be surprised to find that somebody who knows a lot more than me is on this site with the same carrier.
