I bought a Blue Tooth adapter to transfer files from my PC into my phone.

when I connect my phone to my PC...I have to open this OBEX File Transfer folder...and inside only contain Picture, Sound, Video, Theme, and Others Folders....and not Games...

I tried throwing Jar files into 'Others' but I can only send and manage the file and not able to open it....


Can someone please please teach me how to transfer games into my phone....

Thanks

Are you sure you´re sending a .JAR-file to the phone and not a compressed archive containing the game, like a .RAR or .ZIP?
The way I do it, is just rightclick the file on computer and choose send to bluetooth device > choose K700i.
Done.

Try dropping it in the root directory, not into others. a .jar file is a package, so it will not work right away as it is - the phone's firmware will recognize it after receiving and put the files into appropriate locations in the phone memory.
resistance is futile.

I'd go with the right click method as well. the phone will place the file itself.

This is because you cannot browse your games folders from an external device. And that is because the games are 'protected' you cannot send them from your phone either most likely.

unzip it first.

Your phone does not allow .zip files.

What's in the .zip file? (what file extension?)

Those games aren't meant for the phone

nope. Cannot maximize them. they were made for different sized screens, like marlon said
