you have to keep it mind first:
CG1 = FIRMWARE
CG2 = FLEX
CG3 = DSP
CG4 = LANGPACK
CG15 = DRM
CG7 N CG18 = PART OF FIRMWARE


FULLFLASH (a.k.a. MP or Monster Pack) = it contains full firmware, flex, drm, langpack. it divides for CG1, CG2, CG3, CG4, CG7, CG15, CG18.

FLEXFLASH or FLEXLASH = it contains flex (CG2). if you flash it, it will remove your personal files such as phonebook, sms, etc on phone memory.

normal flash (?) i don't know such thing...

REFLASH = only contains firmware (CG1, CG3, CG7, CG18). if you flash it, you can switch between firmware but not touching your personal files, such as phonebook, sms, pic, sound, video on your phone memory. also it doesn't change your langpack and drm too.

if you want to make sure before you flash it, open the SHX or SBF file with FlashBackup. it will show what CG's on the file.

But a month ago I've installed new MP with fullflash method. And It is true that apps on TF still exist. But when I tried to open / play, my phone said that it was corupted. So, I can't open apps.
How do I solve this problem if it happen again?
