    You will need to re-download all the apps you had and set them up again after doing the factory reset. Any paid for apps will show up in the market as paid for, so you will be able to download them again. You will also need to set up you google account again.

    Did you mean menu? if you did, launcher pro has a 3D app draw. You can get the free version of launcher pro from the market, it has loads of customisation options. Also a good idea to download Home Switcher, makes it easier to switch between home launchers..

    Some weather apps allow you to set notifications that show up in the notification bar at the top. Which weather app do you have?

    How are you trying to connect? WiFi or over data connection. If WiFi you will need to re-enter the settings for your router into the phone. If your old settings are still in the phone, long press on your connection name and select forget, reboot phone and router and then re-enter the settings in the phone. If data, you will need to check you APN settings, menu>settings>wireless and networks>mobile networks>Access Point Names. You can get the APN's by typing the following into a Google search>APN(your networks name)3G

    Is your Gmail account working? if it's not, then the fact that the market isn't working would suggest it's a problem with the google servers being down. Might be worth leaving for tonight and trying tomorrow.
