Using "switch device" feature on Desktop Mgr
- Hi again. When I first got the phone, I was getting rid of icons I don't need and was delighted to find out that "hide" didn't just dim the icon, it really hid it elsewhere. However, since messing up my phone it has gone back to just the dimming. Is there a fix???
Thanks

- Reed, in case I wasn't clear...I WANT to hide and not just dim the icons.
Also another problem is: in App Switcher screen, a file folder labeled "net_rim_bb_application-permission" shows up as an option. Why and how do I fix it???

I have not seen that before, there may be some differences in your software in the newer devices. What happens when you bring it forward?
Also, please check Options / About. What software version do you have installed?09-23-10 09:16 AMLike 0 -
Version 5.0.0.732
Do u think I should wipe the phone completely and start over? Remember, we fixed it by upgrading the messed up version...

Wiping and rebuilding is possible, but is not likely to change anything. When you ran Applicatons Loader, you got a fresh build while preserving the current settings.
If you do decide on a fresh build, make sure you have a fresh Backup of your data.09-23-10 09:47 AMLike 0 - Thanks, I have not seen the new v6 OS software, but v5.xx is structured like all previous software, just improved.

I fixed the "hide" issue-u were right, it was the "show all" thingy. Simple fix.
Now, what can I do about that file in app switcher? It apparently is just in the wrong place but how and where do I move it???

The technique is simple, the last page in Applications Loader has an Options ... button. The default is to re-build, deselecting that will result in a factory new build.09-23-10 10:41 AMLike 0 - You may be right, a fresh new build should clear that up, but it will result in erasing all of your third party applications.
