I have installed an app on my blower straight to the Duo stick (per the firmware episode last week).

However theres one app I want to be on the phone now, not the stick.

Do you know how I can just move it to the phone without having to do a De and Reinstall?

it would be best to uninstall it and reinstall it selecting internal memory.

i think you can do it without uninstall/reinstall

you can try, 1st make sure the app is not running in the background, then go (with a 3rd party file manager) to d:\system\apps and find the app you want, copy all the contents of the folder to c:\system\apps, then go to d:\system\install, copy the icon to c:\system\installand finally go to d:\system\recogs and d:\system\libs to see if there is something left to move or copy (depends of the app)

You need to know what you are doing to try out babis' idea. Do it right & you shouldn't have a problem. Do it wrong & .... you don't want to know :-) This message was posted from a P800

Hmmm. De and Reinstall it is then!

You know, I could follow those instructions very easily but I just know something wouldnt work. Always the way. I'd move the app sucessfully... and the flip would break or something equally dumb.

AYA, there is no point or benefit in doing it that way anyway, its easier and takes the same amount of time to just re install it.

BTW - uninstalling most apps still leaves at least an empty directory in the apps folder if not some files.
