Hello,

I want to upload themefiles to my server.
Every time I want to download them my T610 says:

"This file is not supported" or something like that.

Why doen't the T610 not see it is a thm-file and download it?
Do I have to change something??


Greetings,

MI

It's you web server that's the problem, not your phone. Unless you specifically tell it what a certain file type is it doesn't know what to do with it. You therefore need to put a ".htaccess" file onto your site (assuming your host lets you) that tells the web server what these files are.

Create a plain text file with the following code inside it. Then save it as ".htaccess", i.e. no filename, just the extension. Now upload it to your web server and everything shouild work.

Code:
DirectoryIndex index.wml index.html 

addtype text/vnd.wap.wml wml
addtype application/vnd.wap.wmlc wmlc
addtype application/vnd.wap.wmlscriptc wmlsc
addtype text/vnd.wap.wmlscript wmls
addtype image/vnd.wap.wbmp wbmp
addtype text/x-vmel mel
addtype audio/imelody imy
addtype text/x-vmel emy
addtype application/vnd.sonyericsson.mms-template tpl
addtype application/vnd.eri.thm thm
addtype application/vnd.mophun.application mpn
addtype application/vnd.mophun.certificate mpc
addtype text/x-vcalendar vcs
addtype text/x-vcard vcf
addtype text/x-vnote vnt
addtype application/octet-stream amr url



Note that some versions of Windows don't allow you save with the filename ".htaccess" iirc. If you have this problem just give it some random filename and change it to the proper one via your FTP program once it's on your site.

also...in reply to mredd27's post, some servers will not allow you to do this... :(

But, I'm open to host some stuff on my domain if you're interested! (Just show me some of your work first)
