Spring Navigation just DISAPPEARED! :(

SORRY, I MEANT SPRINT NAVIGATION, NOT SPRING

So I restarted my phone yesterday so all the apps needing updating would pop up and register... after I updated those apps, later in the day I was scrolling homescreens and noticed the Spring Navigation icon had changed to what I'd compare to an icon in windows that points to a missing file. I pressed it and it said Spring Navigation no longer was installed. So I went to my app list, and it's not there. I went to the Application Manager within the settings area and couldn't find it.

Has anyone else experienced an app, especially one that comes with the phone itself, un-installing itself and completely disappearing from the phone? And second, how can I re-download and re-install it?

Anybody??? Please!?

No experience with apps disappearing, but check the market. How did you download the app in the first place?

Sorry.... SprinT navigation... as in the Sprint Nav that comes with the phone along with SprintTV and the like.

Then you need to put it on the sprint forum.

Hopefully somebody will have an answer.

I'd call Sprint - they should be able to at least explain for you.

Hopefully a mod will move this to the Sprint forum for you, but in the meantime, I don't suppose you rooted your phone did you? If you didn't, the only explanation is a filesystem problem and the previous poster is right, take it to Sprint.

It's a simple matter to put it back if you're rooted though because you can remount the filesystem read/write and install the application in about 5 seconds...just sayin'
