Just unzip the files to a directory on the storage card, then transfer to the phone's memory before starting it. It's best to just connect your phone to your computer, then browse the storage card like another drive. Create a folder called "ifonz" and then right click on your zip file and drag it to the directory. I say right click because it should give you a menu after you drag and drop, and you should select "Extract here..." or something along those lines.

Once you've got the files in the folder, disconnect the usb cable, then open Total Commander and navigate to your storage card. Select and hold the ifonz folder until a menu appears. Select "Copy/Move" and then select the "Program Files" directory on your phone, then select move.

Once it's done transfering, you can run the ifonz.exe from this directory and plug in a usb cable without making ifonz crash. To create a shortcut to the program, you can use your file explorer to navigate to the ifonz directory, then select "Copy" then navigate to "Windows\Start Menu\ Programs\" and press and hold somewhere in that window until a menu popsup. There should be a menu option that says "Paste as shortcut", select it. Now when you goto start > programs, you can navigate to the shortcut.

@ Eve6 ... unzip it. I think all the files should be in there.

Thanks for the assistance. I figured it out eventually!

Next question:

How do I find the file to choose to swap out Internet Explorer on the main icon bar for Opera? I have been trying to navigate to find the Opera.exe file on my phone and I can't find it.

Any help?

just kidding. You can use .lnk files (shortcuts) so navigate to windows\start menu\programs\opera.lnk.

In fact, I'd recommend using shortcuts for everything instead of the exe files, because those shortcuts sometimes carry attributes.

yes you can. Read my post above. Just put the files within the zip into a folder on the main memory of the phone, then run ifonz.

Can someone help me with this issue:

What is the hierarchy of the program supposed to be in the phone?

Somehow, it doesn't show up in my "program files".

When I was trying to install IFonz, I was having issues, and I ended up finally extracting it to the program files folder, but not within a folder of its own. So, the GFX folder and the other folder that comes along with it are just randomly in the program files folder.

Also, whenever I turn my phone off (soft reset) and start back up, the original icon ICONS are attached to the customized programs that I have assigned. For example. the clock icon comes up behind the calendar and it looks stupid.

Can anyone help me fix my IFonz? Do I just have to uninstall and start over?

Question -

How do I make it so an icon in IFonz links to my programs folder? I can't figure it out since when I try to select my programs folder it just goes down into the next subdirectory and makes me choose a file.

Any help would be appreciated.
