My phone (HTC Hero through Sprint) spontaneously did a hard reset. Is there any way to restore my apps and contacts previously saved to the phone?

You can't get it back. A Hard Reset should only be performed if you want to remove everything from your unit. Please call 866-449-8358 for more information.
