 You did back up everything you deleted right?
 Becuse P2K tools is dangerous, and you HAVE to follow the FAQ's
 If you dont have them backed up - you may have to search for the files online
 if you cant find them your phone is
Anyone have backups for his phone?
If not you can TRY motomodders dot net
They might... have them

I would restore to maufacturer settings
From the stand by screen, press the Menu key.
Scroll to Settings and select by pressing the right soft key.
Scroll to Initial Setup and select by pressing the right soft key.
Scroll to Master Restore and select by pressing the right soft key.
Enter Security Code and press OK.
Note: The default Security Code is 000000.
To confirm the reset, select YES by pressing the right soft key.

master reset is worth a shot, but I belive once you erase the files- they are gone... the phone will try to reset to them and cause more problems.

that was a master restore....puts everything back to factory settings... a reset isnt as dramatic

this is what is says in the userguide...
Master Reset / Restore
Performing a master reset will reset any personalized settings created. Use with caution.
a master reset will take the settings (ringtones and such) and put it back to factory settings... restore will put the seem files back...as for what you lose...hard to say ( I dont use a motorola)...your simcard should be safe

I cant believe how many times i have posted the same thing. Go to p2k and go in the audio folder and delete the files mytone.db and temptone.db then turn your phone off and then on again and these files will be restored and the menu will be fixed
