icons

Any way to change the icons on the front. I downloaded google map. I want to access it without having to go through downloads.

You can move any Icon.
Just tap the icon, press the Blackberry button and choose
MOVE - to move the icon in the current folder
Move To Folder - to move the icon to another folder

Hide - to hide it
Delete - to delete it
Show All - to show hidden icon

So in your case, tap the Google map icon to hilight it - The press BB button - Chose move to folder and select home

Also remember that depending on your settings (whether you have 1 row to 3 rows set) in your main bb menu what you have placed in the first 1-3 (settings) rows will be what's on your home screen. So make sure that your google map icon is within a row that appears on your home screen. The folder briard was talking about (I think) is the main bb menu but that doesn't make it the home/front screen which is where OP wants their icon.

True, after moving the icon the 'Home' folder, you may have to move it again on another row in order to have it to show on the Home screen without scrolling.

Thank you for the clarification ;)

lol no problem. I'm sure that's what you were getting at, I just wanted to make it more clear for the OP :)
