So I just got the new RAZR v3x from Vodafone and tried loading some jar files on it... But was dismayed to find the Vodafone live menus stop you installing from the memory card... but there is a workaround.
1) connect the v3x to the pc using USB cable, connect to memory card
2) create kjar folder in the mobile directory on the flash card
3) copy jar / jad files into the kjar directory
4) on the phone browse to entertainment which displays all the java programs
5) select options > View storage Devices and check that 'ALL' is selected then press back
6) select [Install New] and a blank list displays
7) unplug the usb connection
8) if you are lucky a browser session displays a memory card moving, press 'BACK'
9) if you are really lucky a message displays showing memory available on card wait...
10) if all has gone well you now see the list of jars on the mem card !
install at will !
step 8 appears to be critical to this working... it does not work every time on my phone, so I power down and start from scratch then seems ok.
Hope this helps you all with original Vodafone Live firmware, now if I can find out how to unblock the network ports my newly installed instant messenger program might work !
peace and munt !
