I've got some java games on my website that I'm trying to download to my
3200 (on virgin) but I keep having problems.

When I try downloading them directly, I get "Unknown response" and when
I try writing a wap page and downloading them from a link on the page I
get "Page not found".

I've got the jar and jad files and I know my configuration and wap page
are all fine, so can someone give me some hints on how I should be doing
this?

I haven't got a cable or an irda device to use.

Cheers.

Things would be much easier for you, if you got yourself either of the
above items. In fact it would pay for itself quite rapidly in saved GPRS
costs.

Try looking into your .htaccess file and mime types if they are not set up
correctly your server wont "serve" the jad or jar files , hope this helps

Hmm. Doubt I've got the rights to change these as I'm using my ISP's
server. Ah well. Might try playing with my own server instead, then.

We can suggest to have a look at Oxygen Phone Manager II (
http://www.opm-2.com/ ). Trial version enables to upload games with
'Phone' -> 'Load file to phone' option and full version has full-featured
JAVA manager.

REM: In this case you will need either DKU-5 or F-Bus cable or Infrared
port. However, it is the most easiest way for JAVA management with Nokia
handsets.

You can download the lates trial version here:
http://www.opm-2.com/download/opm2.zip

If you have any questions and/or suggestions, concerning our
program, feel free to post them on our official forum

Yes, I thought you might have something to say.

I do have a cable but try as I might, I can't get it working. The
dumbf**ks who sold it me on ebay tell me they need to send me some
software because it only works with a specific driver set supplied by
the manufacturer. I've downloaded three different sets of drivers from
various websites and always get the same error message.

I know I know I know having a cable or infra red is the easiest way to
get stuff on & off my phone but that's not an option. I can cover the
cost of a bit of GPRS, I have a PC-based wap browser and the series 40
SDK from Nokia so I can test it all to death and I'm quite keen to get
my wap site working properly, so I have plenty of reason to keep trying
it the way I originally mentioned.

So if you have anything to offer which doesn't plug your software, I'm
all ears.

It seems, that you've bought ProLific PL 2303 chipset based cable. This
cable does not function with original Nokia drivers.

Try this link:

http://tech.prolific.com.tw/visitor/v_fileBrw.asp then 'Smart I/O IC' ->
'USB 1.1' -> 'PL-2303 ProLific USB to Serial bridge'

Does this work?

You should install this driver only before plugging the cable in USB port.

After driver installation, connect your phone to PC using cable and open
'Control panel' -> 'System' -> 'Device manager' -> 'Ports COM and LPT' - you
should see additional virtual COM port with 'Prolific USB to Serial Bridge'
comment. Remember this COM port number. Open 'Tools' -> 'Options' ->
'Connection and common' -> 'Connection' -> 'Add port' in our program, add
this virtual COM port number and set connection type to 'DLR-3/DLR-3p'.
Press 'Ok' to confirm the settings. Our program should pick the phone up.

As per our information, most of cables, offered on E-bay, are based on
ProLific PL-2303 chipset.

If you have any questions and/or suggestions, concerning our
program, feel free to post them on our official forum

Nope. I have three different versions of the prolific driver and each of
them give the same error.

I'm pretty sure it's not the prolific cable.

The seller assures me they've sent me a cd with drivers that WILL work.
I'm assuming it's just a trick to ensure I don't give him negative
feedback on ebay. I'm convinced the cable is useless.

Look, I KNOW downloading is the most expensive way of doing it BUT IT'S
MY ONLY OPTION RIGHT NOW.
