Android 5.1.1 upgrade folder read only
-
Upgrade and now unable to save my favourites. On startup it's say "folder is set as read-only" due to the upgrade. How I fix this? I don't want to have my map stored in the internal memory( Currently using the sd card)

close Navigator and delete data in Android settings/application manager/Navigator - then reboot your phone.Please take backup first, otherwise you could loose your favourites...

Thanks for your reply. If I clear the data do you need to download the maps again? If so can it be moved to the sd card?
-
you can move it to SD in your PC, probably not in Android

Smooth Dave - you'd rather buy another phone. This is not a solution. The app shouldn't have been trapped by this OS update. Sorry to tell you this.
Howdy, Stranger!
