Got a problem with downloading themes to my T300 via WAP. When I make a theme at the sonyericsson site, I can download it to my phone just fine. When I download a theme from this site via wap, it works just fine. Now I made my own little WAP page and put some MIDI files, pics, and themes on it. When I go into it and try and download a theme (.thm), I get an error message on the phone that says "operation failed" I can download the MIDI and .gifs just fine. I also get the operation failed message if I try and download I-Melody (.imy) files as weel. Any ideas?

I have the same error. When i tried downloading mophun games from other wap sites like mobilefun, or sonyericsson website it worked. But it is not working when i upload the mpn files onto my own website and try downloading from there. The same 'operation failed error' was shown to me by T230 BROWSER. Can anybody help?

You need to tell you web server to give out the right mime type for the files. If your server is running apache and you are allowed to use .htaccess config files, add appropriate lines to the .htaccess of directories that will contain theme files (or to the top-level directory - these settings usually recurse down the tree). If you are running you own server, you can add them in the global config instead.

For example, the following line adds the right mime type for themes:
Addtype application/vnd.eri.thm thm

Search here or on google and you'll find the ones you need for other file types like games and such.
