I saw this post first and I did all the steps on my phone. I didnt know you had to do the TKFE. I installed the TKFE on my pc and PC Studio. What else do I need to install. Thanks

Sorry for all this, this is new to me..

I carefully followed your instructions for TKF. Worked like a dream. Then I carefully followed these instructions to get rid of Where and XM Radio. Went smooth as glass. Thanks so much for this!

Try reading the Dedicated TKFE thread in the help section.

How can I delete "Shop Games" and Shop Applications" from my Game & Apps?? I used TkFileX and deleted the Media Mall folder hoping this would do it(I did the update Java DB and  update apps database.) but the Shop Games and Shop Apps is still listed and right on top where I don't want them, actually don't want them at all!!

That's why I deleted Media Mall lol... but unfortunately it didn't get rid of the icons plus when tapped on they still go to the sites..
Even if I can find a way to bury them on the bottom of the list would be good,.. Just hate them defaulting to the top of the list...

I just deleted some of the locked games, worked fine. This was only after a long challenge of getting my Impression's drivers installed and TKFE to work on my new Windows 7 64 bit laptop; after following these directions I got it to work: http://www.samsung-impression.org/samsung-impression-how-to/samsung-modem-usb-modem-driver/

I could not get PC Studio to run on this machine, and the drivers that Windows 7 seeks out come packaged with PC Studio 3. So ignore it, and do the manual driver install. TKFE worked fine (no disconnecting) as soon as I manually installed the drivers.

Lastly, the main point of my post is that I've had some very annoying behavior with the "Tumbling Dice" program, so I decided to delete it. Besides being a stupid program (why not be able to tumble 1 die, or 5 dice, like for Yahtzee?), it was always at the top of my apps list, and it did not show as a game to be deleted on my phone. I was dismayed when I found that it was also not in the Games or Locked Games folders on TKFE! On a whim I clicked the Links folder, and there it was! Apparently being in the "Links" folder causes this app not to show up as deletable directly on the phone. I finally manually deleted it and have now gotten this useless app out of my life. Just thought I would post this in case anyone else ran into the same annoyance.

Thanks!

I want to get one of the apps I deleted back. I never thought to back them up to my computer..I would like Media Mall and Yellowpages just for the sake of not having dead links on my main menu. And Mobile email...is there a version that works with gmail?

Where can I find these apps?

Don't know for sure, but you might be out of luck on reinstalling. Those apps are not intended to be deleted - you hacked your phone with the help of the forums in order to do this non-standard action. You might try searching the forums, maybe someone else has had the same problem. You could also search the web, and maybe the jars are out there. Alternatively, maybe someone on the forum could copy their jars for you... not sure if that would work, but I don't see why not.

As for Mobile email, there might be gmail-specific app. Try searching the forums. I don't think the official Mobile email app has versions, per se. WYSIWYG with it, I suspect. I do know that gmail works fairly well through the media net browser.

Good grief, I can suture your wounds, set your bones & restart your heart with a HP 360 defibrillator, but I am clueless as to what TKFE even stands for.
My daughter has a Samsung Mythic & that beast has three pages of locked apps she has no use for. I thought about buying it from her but gad.....no way. That thing was a pain in the butt.

Don't worry, MM, I had trouble when I first started with this site. If you read everything carefully, I'm sure you'll get it. You can also PM somone if you need extra help.

TKFE stands for TK File Explorer. And it is nothing more than a file explorer that works with our phone.
