jar files are simply a special type of zip file and sometimes when you download them to your pc they get named .zip instead of .jar
first thing to try is renaming the file to .jar and then send it to the phone as that wil probably make it work

Try this: download the file again, in the SAVE AS window in TYPE OF FILE select ALL FILES and add .JAR to the name of the game.

OK , what ya have to do is unzip the files into a folder then you have to select the contents of that folder and compress them with .jar compresion , I had to do this with tiger woods and americas army i got them zipped and used winace to repack them selecting jar compression, K790a here |

try to put the .zip file in your phone and install it from it just like a .jar file. That's what i do on my w850 and it works. |

if you go to windows explorer Folder Options,under View tab,and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types"...
then you'll see that .zip games are actually like this : name.jar.zip
so just deleting .zip does the work....
