What could be the problem?

i was also trying to install bluejacking software but i can install it coz its a ".class" file...i use explore to unzip files...how can i read .class files on my phone?

ive got the latest firmware so i thought it would not be a problem

Jar files are basically archives and the .class files are part of that. Just install the .jar or .jad file.

you don't unzip JAR files.
you just copy and install the JAR file as it is.

what do u mean u just copy and install jar files?

what i do is i download them on my pc from the net,
then i transfer them to my phone via usb, then i open x-plore which can view jar/jad files, then i open the zip folders with x-plore and extract whats inside.

is this correct?

what do u do? pls explain

when you get to the point on the phone where you can see the JAR file in your explorer, don't unzip it, just run it.. the JAR file is the executable
