Hi to all!
After upgrading my phone to the latest software update, I noticed a couple of issues regarding compatibility with my previously installed apps.
(Meaning compatibility from the default installed software out-of-the-box)
I'm still checking other incompatibilities with my apps after upgrading the software build. I tried restoring to factory defaults but it still won't revert to the default software build.
Please advice. Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
for the unlock pattern go to
settings -> location & security -> set it up then you should be able to see that it says
Use visible pattern (make sure its selected)
what do you mean by "incompatible" can you elaborate
the Android Market app no longer works -- meaning i have to connect via browser everytime I needed to access/download apps.
The same is true with the YouTube app.
I haven't had any issues with those before, until I updated the software =(
And what really annoys me after the update is that WiFi connectivity now automatically disconnects if I left my phone on idle. That I always have to go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Wi-fi settings just to have it activated again. Before I never had issues with my Wifi connectivity even if I leave my phone idle while downloading apps. I really wish I could revert the software back to default where I don't have these issues 
the first thing I would do is to run PCC or Update Service to repair it once more
you can try this
settings -> applications -> manage applications -> market -> clear everything
same for youtube
btw does this happen when you are using your data plan or your wifi?
also go to settings -> wireless & networks -> wifi settings -> press MENU -> advanced -> wifi sleep policy -> NEVER

How to install it
You need to
go to settings -> applications -> check unknown sources
download IO File Manager
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.openintents.filemanager&feature=search_result
download the backup & restore app, transfer it to your SD card, use OI file manager to find it -> tap on it -> install it
Contacts
just to play it safe sync your contacts w/ google if you haven't already
open your phonebook
press MENU button -> tap on Send Contacts -> select all -> send it to your email
on your computer
-> download the file -> go to your gmail -> click on contacts -> click on more actions -> on the drop down menu click on "import" -> choose the file -> and click import
SMS/MMS
if you don't want to use the backup & restore app then
Install "backup SMS" to back up your SMS and MMS to your Gmail
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zegoggles.smssync&feature=search_result
or your SMS use
"backup & restore SMS"
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result
or for your MMS use "Save MMS"
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.schwimmer.android.mmsextract&feature=search_result
Call Logs
And for call logs this is great

Apps
Don't worry so much about backing up your apps
on your computer go to
market.android.com -> log in -> click on My Library -> and send all your apps to your phone
My Phone Explorer
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.fjsoft.myphoneexplorer.client&hl=en
if you have a lot of sms/mms the backup & restore will take forever or might not backthem up corectly
both apps above Backup SMS + and backup & restore SMS are great, this last one it's really fast
let me make it simpler
download the apk on your computer, send it to yourself through email, make sure you send it to your Gmail
now on your phone
go to settings -> applications -> check unknown sources
wait for the email, once you get the email, open it, and instead of downloading the attachment it will allow you to install it, voila, done

I just had it repaired -- though i wasn't able to perform a backup. Anyway, I just had to re-sync again.
