    For me it usually means it's not the right game for that phone, right screen size, etc. You should try some different games.

    Most likely a good call Wreck. Know of any good sites with free java games for the V551?

    Cheers

    jlavah..

    im getting the same issues as the other guy that you were helping out with the games. I have downloaded about 20 games off the site you stated above and get the same error in midway. Im using com3 on the modem and thats what i set it to. I even set the baud rate on both, still no luck. This is my error:

    Opening JAD file.............[OK]
    Connecting the phone.........[TIMER EXPIRED]


    Downloading canceled.

    Not really sure to go from here :(

    you need to have the jar and the jad file in the same folder. try that and see if it works

    Quick question since i know you have most likely ran into this problem yourself. How can you delete the games individually? i know u can delete all apps via the phone menus.. but i dont want to delete them all ya know?

    The man with all the answers ;).. Thanks again

    Im loving the Dope Wars, played it for the PC a long time ago. Do you happen to have the full version? the demo sucks b/c it wont record the high scores. Let me know.

    Cheers
