Xperia Miro - Album app issue

Naren_S — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 23:23:21 GMT

Hi,

I'm using Sony Xperia Miro, when i was moving some file from the internal storage to my ext_sd card, i've incorrectly moved the default Android folder from the internal storage to the ext_sd inside which all the Android apps got installed. After which many of the apps were not working. Then, i again shifted those back to its existing location. But though the Preinstalled Album app is not working. I guess it should be because of the action i did. Is there a way i can reinstall it from any web source or get the s/w from the mobile shops/Xperia outlets without rooting the phone? or will there be any issue for my mobile if i root it and then reinstall those apps? Please help me...!!

Thanks,

Naren

that's something we are all waiting for Sony to address, there is an alternative

1) root your phone

2) use apps2SD

this is how to root (click on root)

I'm little afraid that rooting may lead to "bricking" the phone..! so, i hope we need to wait..

if you unlock the bootloader to root your phone yes it could, if you use other methods you should be ok, but I really hope Sony address this issue.

hey you may go to this site to move your apps to SD card and set it up as a default storage without rooting:
