From the "people" menu you can choose to "export/import" a contact, and then select "export to SD card" - the vCard will be saved in /sdcard/ . It should be something like "pcsc_pcsc_00001.vcf". It's visible with EStrongs explorer.

[Q] Apps/widgets installed on phone

Just want to know where the .apk files are kept on the phone because I want to manually back up so I don't need to download everytime I do a reset. I also want to keep them on my PC.
I've searched all the folders but could not find them. Are they hidden?

Try using a file manager such as Astro or ES file explorer. They have the ability to save an app to an apk.

I've got both but couldn't find any by using search function.
How do I do it ?
cheers

Just go astro, press menu button, choose tools then backup option.
Then select the app that you want to back up.

Move User Manual in Downloads to Home Scr

I downloaded the User Manual to the Downloads folder.
How do I put it (or a shortcut to it) on my Home Screen?
Thanks, cb

If you have ES File Explorer (if you don't, it's free on the market), go to sdcard/download, press and hold until the menu comes up and select shortcut.

I am using Astro File Manager.
I can get to the file in the download folder, but where do I put it?
Where is the folder for the Home Screen?

Create folders in gallery

Hi all
I see that I am able to create folders in the gallery app but it is residing in the sdcard folder? How do I change it to external sdcard?
I tried clearing the "miscellaneous files" in the settings > storage and now I lost all those pictures!!

uh..nobody knows?

it would be easier if you create a folder in sdcard, then copy 1 image file into it via file explorer.
It will start showing in gallery, then drag and drop the files into the new folder via gallery only.

[Q] Change Auto save destination for online files/mms messages?

I know how to make camera save to SD card NOT WHAT IM ASKING.
I am using Chrome, and stock mms, on stockrom[roooted]v2 by docholiday77.
Can i change the default save location to a folder on my SD card? Or have it ask where do you want to save this?
because right now its saving to internal sdcard>downloads. and im having to use my Root explorer to copy and paste the files into the appropriate file location, and its very inefficient.

Create a symlink using root explorer.
Long press the folder you want to use and choose Link to this Folder. The rest should be apparent.
Don't know if it'll hold after reboot.

My bad...
ment i have Root browser and ES file explorer*
there's no Symlink with them but there is a create shortcut in Root browser is that the same?

There should be a way to link them using those. Give it a try and see.
