VX8100 how to transfer brew games???

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: Zappa44

I have a VX6000 and just got my VX8100. I know how to get in the phone with bluetooth and bitpim. I've sucessfully added ringtones that work etc. (the on phone limit seems to be 15 extra ringtones) What I am now trying to do is take a game from my VX6000 and put it in my VX8100.

I'ved tried a couple of ways but no luck. In fact after restarting my phone the files I put in there are gone. I'm trying to put "Jamdat Bowling" in my 8100. Anyone have any suggestions??? I figured a brew game is a brew game and it wouldn't matter what phone it was on, kind of like a java based game, java is java no matter what OS is running it!

I've noticed the programs I have dloaded into brew from verizon (Logitec mobile video and FF Snowboarding) go in the brew directory. They create a new directory under brew named 16231(for snowboarding) and 14442 (for logitech mobie video). Inside that is four files, data.hiz, ffsnowboard.mod, ffsnowboard.sig and usr.dat.

The files I copied off my 6000 for Jamdat Bowling were in brew under 3898. There are 5 files in there bowling2.bar, bowling.bar, bowling.mod, bowling.sig and bowling_local.bar. There is also 1 under brew that is 3898.mif. In fact all the programs in brew have a directory with files in it and a .mif file with the same number as the directory.

I tried putting it in just the same way it was named "3898" and I tried 13898, nothing works. I can not find a a .dat file to delete then reboot like the my_ringtone.dat and my_ringtonessize.dat.

Thanks in advance!

The game is coded to the 6000's esn it will never work for the 8100.

It might be possible, however I need the game to test on my phone. Please post it and I might be able to figure something out.

Probably not really going to happen from someone in a thread that's getting close to being almost 3 years old at this point.
