How do I?

If any of your questions start with "How do I" or "Does anybody know," then maybe this is the section for you.    

My phone is lagging and some of the cabs that I installed and have tried to delete won't go away so its taking up space so I want to do a hard reset. Now herein lies the problem. I have dashwire already so all of my contacts are there I just don't know how I would go about getting my information back on my phone after I hard reset. Do I just hard reset and then go to dashwire from my phone and sync and everything miraculously reappears? I have tried searching for this but I can't find anything about a hard reset other than one straight out of the box. So how do I get my contacts back on after a hard reset? I think I asked that like 3 times, I'm sorry.

and also when i hard reset and add things  back and blah blah, say theres a cab i have on my phone but i want to delete it how do i get it off of my phone w/o hard resetting or is hard resetting the solution?

ummmm both? i added some games and such that needed the new .net thingy downloaded but that wont download on my phone so those cabs dont work n i tried deleting them but they stay in my programs. so is that both?

Guyz it confused me a litlle...Isn't this about HTC TP2?You guyz own the TP2 in a strange way?
Anyway i want to ask also since it has windows mobile how can it not play xvid?and is there an app. or something so it can run it?
