I am not a developer, but from what I understand, when you have a corrupted Db, the Touch now prompts you to do the reset. Resets on the Touch are different than on earlier devices, which didn't actually repair/replace the bad Db as part of the factory reset. Reading about the problems you were having, it seems like you might have needed that!
