Copying App folders to memory card \ installing

4 replies · 3,962 views · Started 08 May 2005

Hi everyone,

You know the Route 66 GPS software comes on a 256MB memory card how would I transfer the program onto a 512MB so I can use MP3 files, games etc on the same card as the GPS?

I seen somewhere about copying some folders, one called ROUTE66 and ones from system\apps or summat but Nokia Phone Browser won't let me paste any folders into E drive (I tried it with some other bits didn't work) and I certainly can't see a system folder - what do I need to do?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Does what I'm sayin make sense - basically I don't understand how 2 copy the files into a new memory card so the app will actually work - would it be better if I used a PC memory card reader - would all the folders show up then or is there a special tool I need to use? What's this system folder all about - I'm quite confused lol

I have FRANCE MOBILE 2005 from ROUTE 66. Do you have interest to swap maps?
Thanks in advance

Find somebody with a card reader on their PC and copy it. The system file on the mmc is hidden from the file manager on the phone so you'll never be able to copy it.

I've heard of that software - it runs from the phone ye? Does it link to the PC or summat cos Nokia Phone Browser won't let me copy any folders at all onto E - all I can do is create new folders manually and paste files in but there's too many subfolders = lots of aggro 😡 Is a memory card reader the easiest way or will this fsexplorer work just as well? Can anyone tell me wot 2 do if I use the program as I have no idea with these smartphones lol
