Motorola Droid: Error “Application is not installed on your phone”

After installing the 2.01 update for my Motorola Droid, my Gallery application on the home screen doesn’t work. When I tap the icon, it throws up an error message:

Application is not installed on your phone

The icon on the application slider works though. So it looks like I just need to recreate the icon on the home screen.

1. Tap and hold the Gallery icon on the home screen.

2. Drag it to the trash.

3. Tap the application slider.

4. Tap and hold Gallery.

5. Drag the icon to the home screen.

I don’t have a Motorolla, but I just want to take the time to tell you what a service you are providing the public.

I have a few blogs and one of them is my Business Technology blog, which I haven’t had the time to update for awhile, but one of the posts that drew a lot of comments wan the one on how I resolved the problem that Safari froze in my iPod Touch. And you know what, almost all of those that commented didn’t have a blog or website. How cool is that?

Thanks – this tip worked perfectly. My Gallery came up with the same error and I was worried that the 2.0.1 update lost my pictures but it didn’t.
