Problem on Sony Ericsson Vivaz U5 help!

Please help on my phone, I encounter this problem yesterday.

The selection of photos and videos are gone , only the music selection was left but no contents.


Also when I take pictures, the picture was saved but cant be viewed on my phone but viewed on other phone using my memory card.

I also can't view my files on my memory card.

When I removed the memory card, still can't see the selection for photos and videos.

When I also connect my phone into my laptop, it says that I need cd for software installation for my vivaz.


..

Can anyone help? I was not able to update my phone since i purchased it last September 2010.

http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/updateservice/vivaz?cc=gb&lc=en You can download the update service application from here.Run it on your phone and see if that fixes the problem.You will lose user data from the phone but not the memory card.

When I connect my phone to my laptop, it said that I need software installation CD for my phone, and when i checked the "My Computer", there is no icon of my phone.

Disconnect your phone from the laptop and download the update application from the link I previously posted.Switch your phone off and follow the instructions from the application once it's installed on your laptop.The update actualy requires that the phone is switched off.

Sorry, I just want to make sure if that will not do any further damage to the phone? will that be the fix to my problem?

Thanks for your help and suggestions, I'll do it later.

Anyone can help me?

No, it won't damage your phone, but there is no guarantee it will fix it either.
