I was hoping I was missing a permission or something like that.

We haven't touched the firmware or the system database, in fact the
Motorola device is brand new, it came to my desk still closed in his
box.
Is there any way to reset to the factory settings and restore
everything?

I'll see if I can find an app from the market to test.
