Hello Buddy....
I am having Google nexus handset n its having inbuilt memory....n its corrupted....like every folder in it has converted into .exe files n having shortcuts of these folders......files which are without any folders are alright.....I can't delete these folders....somehow I am able to open them n had copied imp data to my PC.....now my question is how to fix this problem or if I format my phone ,is thr anyway to back up whole apps n data.....my phone is having ice cream update..... will it be lost after formatting?
 
Doing a factory reset will restore phone to factory settings. (This should remove all those folders your trying to delete.) This will erase all saved data in the internal memory. You can backup apps apk's and there folders, if you know how to find them, to either a computer or SD card. Once you factory reset the phone, just move all the folders back to the internal memory and restore the apps apk.'s. I haven't tired this, but I believe it should work. I use "AppSaver" to back up/restore all my apps. apk's.
