Just drop the java file in the root directory ie put drop it at the place where all folders like sound,picture,video etc are and the phone will do the rest.
Do not put it in any folder or it'll be stored in others.

Another option

With k750 it will be easy to have great java apps for this, because java can acess file system, meaning you should be able to send txt files to the phone, and acess them from the java reader app

I used that app. But i found a better one, a 1.2mb download to pc and then just browse and show it the text file. It will then output a jar version of the file that you can send to the phone. I currently have all the three lord of the rings in jar format in my phone. Have completed about 10% of the book.

@alv8 AWESOME info thanks dude.
I found bookreader here:

http://tequilacat.nm.ru/dev/br/ref-en.html

It's brilliant. I love it. Now I can catch up on some reading on my k700, perfect solution for me.

@chili, how do you use bookreader to create/edit text files?

@max_wedge

No dude, I don't use Tequilacat Bookreader to create/edit text files. It's only a reader. What I do is save very short (almost blank) text files to the "Others" folder; these now become my templates, which I edit using the K700i's mms editor.

When you exit the mms editor, the changes to the text file are saved in the Others folder AND the messages "Drafts" folder. So I advise that you delete the resulting mms in the Drafts folder after every editing session, in order to save space.

@chili, ah I see! Good idea by the way, I didn't realise editing the text files in 'others' via the mms editor changed the 'others' copy as well, I just assumed it only created an mms out of it! Assume nothing, I should have known.

That is another excellent capability for the K700.

I tried created a 1,2mb jar file with Tequilacat Bookreader (harry potter order of phoenix), but it didnīt work on k700i. What is the size limit??? I tried it with smalish texts (some tales from HP Lovecraft) and they worked

In other hand, i made a 1,2 mp jar file with http://www.t41.nl/content.jsp?section=projects/readme and it worked...but is a worse book reader than tequilla cat - you canīt change the size of the text

I guess iīll have to split the whole harrry potter ebook in smaller parts

try breaking it up into chapters if it isn't already. I likewise couldn't get a 1.4MB textfile to open through bookreader, but I put it in all as one textfile.

I'm going to try breaking it up abit.

Based on my observation, K700i is able to use whatever free memory it has for RAM purposes. So as long as you have enough free space, Tequilat will be accommodated by the K700i via virtual memory. Conversely, if you have a lot of MP3s and photos in the phone, Tequilacat won't be able to uncompress its books at runtime.

This is what makes the K700i so much better than, say, Nokia 6600, which uses only its internal 6mb memory for RAM, and not the MMC.

I've been able to read a 465kb txt file (uncompressed size) with no trouble at all. However, I suggest that txt files be cut up to smaller sizes (200kb and below) so that replying to SMS, especially when T9 is on, won't be slowed down.

I've got 7MB free, but still can't read 1.4MB (it actually compressed to 350 odd kb as a jar). But that's through bookreader.

I haven't tried really big files in the others folder. Also bookreader might be a bit better if I have more free space.

@max, 7mb free is more than enough for RAM. I once loaded Bookreader -- total jar file size = 1.8mb, and it worked. But within that 1.8mb was 9 text files. That's an average of 200kb per file. Try cutting up your book into groups of chapters, e.g. Chapters 1-20, etc.
