Find yourself a file management app on the play store. you will be able to use that to navigate to whatever folder you put your file in. I suggest the downloads folder. I recommend an app called File Manager to get to the file on your phone. It might take a few moments to figure out where you are on the phone once you open that app, but the navigation shouldn't be difficult, just the usual swiping and double tapping.

Tony, How do I find it when in the phone? I'm still new to Android, so I've only installed and ran apps so far. Thanks.

It will ask if you want to instal the app. Make sure you have the device set to install apps from third party sources.

It recommends that you install SudoSu next, to protect your device. Now I am thinking of custom ROMs. I have heard that Omni Rom and Carbon are Blind-friendly. I've never done any of this, so before I take the plunge, I'm hoping anyone here who has done this can offer some advice. Oh yeh, one more thing: The file is an .APK file. Is there a place on my phone to put the file? Thanks. Glenn To post to the list, simply send email to vi-android@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
