subject: [OS2HW] Removing ea data. sf from a cellular phone?

One of my children has a Sanyo cellular telephone that takes pictures.  It
can be made to be recognized by a computer as a mass storage device via a
USB port.  My son asked me to copy a photo that he took from his camera to
his computer.  While I was showing him how to use PMView to manipulate
images, I inadvertently saved one of the images back to the USB drive
(phone).  This, of course, caused eCS to write ea data. sf to the phone. 
Now, I expect as a consequence of my having done the above, the phone will
take photos but will not store them.  Needless to say, I had to endure a
lot of grief about using an antiquated OS, etc.

A couple of years ago I experienced the same problem with a digital
camera.  I was able to save the photos on the memory card and format the
card again and get the camera to work.  Formatting the phone may be an
option.  It has a format function, but formatting will require someone to
re-enter all of the phone numbers on the phone again, which is a
considerable nuisance.

I don't seem to be able to change the attributes of the ea data. sf file
from hidden, read-only, and system in either Windows or eCS, so I can't
delete the file from the phone.  Other than formatting the phone, is there
any way to solve this problem?
