Default Velocity Toolkit missing

Hey,

I just recently had to re-flash my phone to velocity 1.0 because it was starting to become unresponsive and slow. So I reflashed it to 1.0, then did the upgrade process to 1.1, then 1.2.1. But when I was finished flashing to 1.2.1 my shortcut to Velocity Toolkit is missing. I was able to do some digging and I know it's still installed (I can find it in the system directory). I'm just trying to find a way to restore the short cut in the app drawer. I've tried to find a thread regarding this problem but I could not seem to find one. Any help would be appreciated.

I also did make nandriod backups between each flash.

The velocity toolkit was integrated as part of the android settings to save drawer space for your apps in the newer velocity builds. It was unnecessary to the developer to have a shortcut in the firmware. As i understand or see it...

Ah ok. Thanks for the heads up. I was just a bit confused because before I had to reflash it, I had a shortcut on my home screen. I know it's not a big deal, it was just something I was curious about.

It happens. I like shortcuts myself. I believe you can make ur own shortcut using launcher pro or adw ex. A launcher that allows for custom shortcuts to be created

I tried to add a short cut but I couldn't find a way to make the shortcut go directly to Velocity Toolkit. Oh well. I'll just find something else to take it's place where I used to have it
