Most likely you've an entry in the system alarm queue which is triggering the switch to silent profile. Read this post on how to get rid of an alarm entry - http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=358

Ummm, I would advise against it. Some things store quite a lot of their settings files in there. ALSO, this is where the maps for most map applications that I know of are stored. So if you wipe it, Ovi Maps (if you need it) will have to download its maps again. You may or may not have other map applications, but then you probably know how to get new maps for those.
Most likely, you won't run in TOO many problems... So things might crash on startup, and you may lose some settings data, but a reinstall would PROBABLY fix any app that doesn't work.
*Shrug*
If you do, all the OS-level stuff is safe, as far as I know, so if you feel up to it, go for it.

well I found the main issue that was bogging me down. Refer to this thread if some cronjob is happening regularly which annoys you.

sms and contacts are stored in db's in hidden folders in the /home/user directory. I'm sure other important stuff is in there too.
Don't do eeeet D: (reference for other people who may attempt this)

I am thinking of deleting all the hidden folder in /home/user dir. Before I do it, just wanted to check if any one has done this? What is the potential implication of doing this? Will it create any issues?
The reason I am doing it as there is some settings which is switching to silent profile at 9 am till 5pm. I recall doing this through some apps, I deleted the thing from the app and also the app but it still keeps coming.
TIA
