I accidentally deleted the camera shortcut on my start menu and now it wont launch on sense home (the part where you can put your own short cuts).
How do I get the camera shortcut back on the start menu?
The camera.exe file is located in the windows folder on your device. There is a few ways you can get it back into your start menu but this would be my suggestion.
1: Navigate to the \windows folder on your device (either through active sync on your computer or through file explorer)
2: Locate camera.lnk file
3: Copy the camera.lnk shortcut to \windows\start menu\programs\
cool beans thanks!

I use my phone mostly for TomTom mobile.
Does anyone know a way to get TomTom to run everytime i turn the phone on?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
You should have a file called "TomTom Mobile.lnk" (this is a shortcut file) in the directory "\Windows\Start Menu".
Copy it to the folder "\Windows\StartUp"
Next time you start your phone, the TomTom application will start automatically.
If you don't already have a shortcut file for TomTom, then use the MS Activesync explorer to find the "TomTom MOBILE.exe" file (e.g. \Storage Card\TOMTOM\TomTom MOBILE.exe). Right mouse click on this file and choose "create shortcut". Edit the shortcut name and then copy it to the "\Windows\StartUp" directory.
Hi I am new here.
I have downloaded some new applications that I used to have on my old xda wm device, and although I can open them via file explorer, these particular files are not coming up in the start menu, and also (probably connected) I cannot link them to the quick link tabs. Is there any simple reason for this?
Go to the File Explorer, Windows directory and copy '(app name).exe' as a shortcut and paste in Windows\Start Menu.
After this you can put them on quick link tabs.
As the title says, how do I move a folder to the tablet's "desktop", the main screen that you get after the tablet is finished booting.
Running currently CM7.0.3
Thanks.
As for moving the folder itself I have no idea, however if you want to create a shortcut on the tablets "desktop" then simply install Astro File Manager, long press on the desktop, choose add item, shortcut, ASTRO & then choose the appropriate folder.
Just be sure to hit okay quickly after you choose your folder otherwise it will take you into any subfolders within the parent folder (that is unless you choose to create a shortcut for a subfolder)
If you use es file explorer all you need to add is es bookmark manager beta to do this. Just tested it.
Hmm, I wonder if this is a ROM specific issue. I'm using Beasty's ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084573). When I long press on the home screen, one of the items I can add to the home screen is folders. I added a "Recent Documents" folder to the desktop to test. From the other comments, it sounds like there are a few alternatives if your ROM doesn't have a direct option to add folders to the home screen.
Is there an app or widget that will show me what files are located in a folder? For example I have a folder called DOCUMENTS. I want a widget that will allow me to scroll through the files in the folder, pick a file and open it in one of the Office apps. I know I can go to a File Manager app and hit a few directories and get it that way I am but just looking for a short cut to a specific folder.
I am ONLY looking for a single folder that I have my project files in for work.
Here is an app that kind of does what I am looking for (searches the SDCARD for predefined files) but doesn't work on ICS as I tried it.
Data Folder

I solved my problem of putting a shortcut for a folder or file on the home screen.
The answer is here:

I am a little surprised this functionality isn't built into Android already for shortcuts or in the more "popular" file explorer apps.
Hi! Can somebody please tell if it is possible to create a folder on the desktop of Galaxy Note where I could put my favorite files of different types - mp3s, docs, videos etc?
It is very simple to create a new desktop folder but I have no idea how to fill it with the files I want
Also, is it possible to create a desktop shortcut to a data folder (with music etc)? Thank you very much in advance for help.
The only way to fill a folder with files is:
Make a folder in your SD card with the files you want
Download Astro file manager
Long tap on home screen
Choose 'add shortcut'
Find astro shortcut
Choose the folder
So you have a shortcut of your folder, but you'll open it with astro....
Hope I helped you

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thank you very much! Actually I was hoping to do it without an extra app, but this is also a very good solution.
