hi,
i installed mgmaps a while ago and the old version works perfectly well on my nokia navigator 6110. then i try to 'update' mgmaps and it gives an error message. i then decided to uninstall mgmaps. it says uninstallation was successful. however, the mgmaps icon in my application folder STILL exist. whenever i choose remove, nothing happen. any idea how to delete this? at the same time, i was unable to install any version of mgmaps for my nokia 6110 navigator (error message will come out). it would be nice if someone can help me with this. i try to avoid the hard reset.

thanks!

Download Y-Browser (Google search) and use it to delete file. Check file attribute is not set to read-only.

I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

If you installed in phone memory it should be in C: directory, if you installed to memry card then E: directory. At least thats how it works on my phone (N95)
