Hi Arturo, 

It seems you are having trouble with icons on your Android froyo. DO a complete factory reser with full data removed. GO to settings and then go to privacy and there you can see under personal data Factory data reset option click on that and if prompted click yes. Now all your data is gone, do a system restart by holding your power button for more than 5 seconds, now please check if the icons re appear or if not then switch of the phone  and then press home button power button and volume up button to enter into recovery mode and then use volume keys to find full rest option and press home button to activate it, now it will take a while and then you can use your phone as like the time you bought it will all the icons . 

Hope that solves your case.
