Recently restored a backup on my N73. As always, certain apps then had to be reinstalled because the phone does not 'trust' all apps on memory card.
This time however, when I reinstalled OperaMini, a new Icon shortcut was created, with the old one pointing to a dead link... It does not show up in App Manager, nor can I find it anywhere on my SD.
When using TaskMan, I can see that the working link points to E:\270408373.fakeapp, while the dead one points to E:\270162753.fakeapp.
How can I fix this? Am a bit OC about icons & folders :\
Hello.
I had the same problem and found a solution:
1. Best TaskMan also shows UID for installed applications. You need it (save somewhere characters after "0x"😉.
2. Connect your phone to PC in data transfer mode and then navigate to \Private\10003a3f\import\apps\NonNative\Resource folder on your memory card. File <UID>_loc.rsc contains the name of MBM file in the same folder that should be removed. Then remove <UID>_loc.rsc and <UID>_reg.rsc files.
The icon of "Opera Mini" should disappear from installed applications menu.
Good luck.
I stumbled onto the directory a couple of weeks back while I had the SD in my pc's card reader & managed to get rid of the icon, plus a whole lot of other junk the uninstaller left behind.
Believe it or not, my phone won't connect in MassStorageMode anymore. It used to, but lately tells me that "another application is using it..." Tried again after ending all open processes (using TaskMan), still no luck.
My speed-dial is also stuffed. Works fine aft a firmware upgrade, till I restore my data back-up. Then just refuse to open. Given up on that. Don't feel like re-entering all my contacts aft an upgrade just in case it solves the problem!
Thanks again for your reply. Cheers
