Dear All,

I have downloaded some game & application for my SE W800 from http://gallery.mobile9.com... I extracted them (zipped files) but when i tried sending them to my phone (via bluettoth) i got a notification on the mobile saying "invalid application"! I know they should be with extension "jar" but i don't know how to change it
I tried changing the extension (MF file after extraction) to jar but i still get the above message "invalid application"... what am i doing wrong? Can anyone help me pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

Thank you all in advance

As the files do not have the .jar-extension, are you really sure that they are Java-games?

one the files are on your computer in a window,
1. go to tools, the folder options.
2. go to the view tab
3.At the bottom of the current window,( about the middle of the total list) you will see "hide extentions for known file types".
4. This firstly needs to be un checked.
5. go back to you file which will now read. "xxxxxx.zip"
6. press "F2" and it will let you rename it, change "xxxx.zip" to "xxxx.jar".
7. It will ask whether you want to do this because changing it will alter properties etc, just say "yes".
8. Transfer file to phone and it will save in to either games or applications.

go get playing

actually, it happen with a couple of games with my K800, it might just be the file, try downloading some other games and see if it works
