Run installed apps from MyDocs

Run installed apps from MyDocs




Note : 
Maybe someone else have found this long time ago!
(I used the same kind of method of preenv games)
Anyway try this ONLY if you are a POWER-USER and also have the ability to re-flash your device!
If you tried it, please leave a comment.All your ideas are valuable.



Note :
This is like moving installed apps to MyDocs. Maybe this isn't so important. But just try it if you like ;)
Anyway this works perfectly with my device ;)


Additional Note :
This same method can do for free your rootfs space.(By making symlinks) .I've moved /usr/lib/microb-engine/ to MyDocs and freed 23MB rootfs space! . I'll post about it later.

1) Install maemodder.See the link.

2) Install filebox . Enable "root access" and Enable "Show hidden files and folders" .


apt-get install filebox


3) Open maemodder and select "MyDocs Executable" . Then close it .


4) Reboot the device.


5) Open filebox and create a folder in MyDocs that you need to store your apps.


I use - /home/user/MyDocs/Games/Apps/


6) Then go to /opt and select mozilla . (Im using mozilla folder for the example. You can try it with another folder too.But be careful!  )


7) Then cut paste the folder to /home/user/MyDocs/Games/Apps/


8) Again go to /opt


9) Then create a symlink for /home/user/MyDocs/Games/Apps/mozilla/


10) Done! 






















Note :
If you cant open firefox , do this.


1) Open xterm and type


fennec


2) If it says Permission denied , That means you didnt enabled the Mydocs Executable correctly!

Note :
This is also can done to the preenv games. Ive used the same method here.But in manually.
For preenv games (When installed via a .deb file) ,

Location -
 /opt/preenv/usr/palm/applications/
