Hope this is the right area to post this, apologies if it's not.
First off I'll come right out and say it, I'm new to Android but have been tweaking and modding other handhelds for awhile. Mostly China MP4 players, Blackberries, Windows Platforms and such.
Anywho, I got my first android smartphone (LG Optimus S) on Sprint a couple weeks ago and have been enjoying playing around with the abundance of apps and mods that are out there.
One of the first things I did was root and installed Titanium Backup. I went through and ran the batch to backup all my downloaded apps. I then went through and backed up a few of the stock sprint apps and removed a few that I figured I wouldn't be using thinking that I would be free to reinstall them if needed. Here's where my problem is, I backed up and removed the "Sprint Zone" app and after a reboot it's not available to "Restore" in Titanium Backup's Manager. I guess there are a few apps and special offers through that app that makes it worth keeping around.
With the AndroZip App I was able to locate the Sprint Zone .gz in the Titanium Backup directory. My question is what/ where to put it? Or if I can even use it to install the app back on my phone, It's not a APK like most the other Sprint/ Android apps.
Any help would be much appreciated!
