Is this possible?

Well I installed a GPS program on my phone... and I installed it correctly however I don't see the GPS icon under programs... it's actually under the micro sd card and in a folder... and the only way to open the program is go into file explorer and find the folder which is located inside the storage card...


is there anyway to move it or create a shortcut to where it would appear under Programs?

Re: Is this possible?

Thanks for the help TMZ but that method didn't work because apparently if i just do a copy of the program it won't work... it needs the registry which is located in the micro sd card... if I bring the whole GPS file (which I loaded on the micro SD card) then it will take a ton of space... plus everytime if I decide to flash... it would erase it... correct?

Don't bring the whole file, Just the active GPS icon.

I tried that... it says " File cannot be opened. One of its components cannot be found. blah blah blah"

Oh well...

Re: Is this possible?

I actually copied the icon with a few others and it worked!

I didn't bring the whole file... I just copied the folder where the app was in. It works.

Thanks TMZ!
