Problem with downloading applications

[ Edited ]

Hi,

 

I own a Nokia C5. Yesterday I had some trouble with my memory card. I had to format it without knowing that some of the applications I had downloaded were installed on it, and I didn't back up anything.

Of course these applications disappeared from my phone menu. The trouble is that when I go to each of these applications through "My stuff " in "Ovi Store", the "Download" button is dimmed out and I can't download them again, as if the phone "thinks" they don't need to be downloaded again because they are already on the phone.

 

Please tell me the way to "refresh" the phone so that I should be able to download these applications again.

 

P.S. Restarting the phone didn't do the job.

Please use plain text.

Re: Problem with downloading applications

yes. Ur c drive shows ur phone having the apps installed as they are not uninstalled, instead deleted from memory card. U must go either hard reset (*#7370#), or download those apps installer files via opera mini.

Re: Problem with downloading applications

@ng85 you can also download nokia store apps via opera mini. First you should sign in. Then go to an app and add /download after the address.
e.g. For nokia browser
store.ovi.com/content/51924/

you can download by going to
store.ovi.com/content/51924/download

Re: Problem with downloading applications

I do not prefer downloading apps from nokia store as 95% are ad supported. Downloading from the source/publisher is what I prefer. That's the reason I do not check Nokia Store frequently on Opera Mini. As far as the way of downloading an app is considered that I'm already familiar with. Thanks
