Mine is V600 and I've also been trying to install apps in it but has no
clue how to do it.
First, I don't know on what directory to install them. On File Transer,
there are only 3 directories - audio, picture, and video. Should I
create an apps directory and put the application right there? Or I
suppose to do something else? Help!
Thanks
