About the full erase options
In most cases, you can perform a "regular" full erase if you want to erase
downloaded applications and USB drive storage files from your phone.
Perform a secure full erase when you give your phone to somebody else and
you don't want that person to be able to access your data. Also, before
giving your phone to another person, you must manually delete all the apps
you installed because they are automatically reinstalled on your phone after
a full erase (see
Delete an
application).
Regardless of which full erase option you choose, all your data on the web—
in your online accounts and in your Palm profile—is untouched.
After either type of full erase, you can sign in to your Palm profile either on a
new webOS phone or the same phone you just erased. Signing in restores
your Palm profile data and information from online accounts, but not your
stored files such as pictures, videos, and music (you must copy those again
to the phone; see

Change default applications
If you have more than one application on your phone that can perform a
particular function, you can change the default application to use for that
function. For example, your phone comes with two applications that can be
used to show the map location of an address: Google Maps and AT&T
Navigator. You can select which of these applications opens by default when
you tap an address to see its location on a map. Google Maps is the default
application.
