Only when u'll get a Symbian phone (P series rom SE or Nokias with Symbian) u can install a program called Power Protect or anotha called F-Secure.

For short information you can always use code memo as well (protected by password). But I guess, you are looking for better opportunity to classify your data.

skibbe, the fileprotect app is perfect for single file protection, but can't do whole dirs. (but it uses proper DES encryption). If you can't find it let me know I'll point you in the right direction, but a simple search of esato should reveal a link.


edit: here we go http://www.ixalon.net/FileProtect.jad (use via wap)

i think i got it in another theread along with a russian file-manager =D

so the files will only be visable when i am using this java applet? that have pin/password protection to be used? that would work like a charm then if i use it well

EDIT: got me a problem, i am new to using a phone with a removable disk, so where do i transfer the jar/jad files coz "other" and then install them did't work =/

you should be able send via bluetooth, in which case it will install automatically. The other way is to copy to other folder, and then on the phone drill down to the other folder and select the game file. The phone should then ask if you want to install, simply agree and away you go

you assign a password when protecting a file. Once protected the file is visible but cannot be opened (it has a locked icon). Even if you move the file to another phone or the computer it will still be encrypted. The only way to unencrypt it is to use a DES client (such as fileprotect).
