Just a guess, but you might want to try
Code:
sudo gainroot apt-get install --reinstall hildon-desktop

This will install hildon-desktop again. You might additionally have to purge the modified-hildon-desktop package and reboot
Code:
apt-get purge modified-hildon-dektop reboot
Now firstly my usb port is broken so if I brick my phone there is no fixing it so that is why I am asking here just to be sure (I charge with an external battery charger).
Is it ok for me to remove modified-hildon-desktop using application manager? Will the old hildon manager just work afterwards? Is there anything else I need to remove or a preferred removal order?
Cheers for any help.
