including
Tocca, Guide to installing Java games on newer Samsung phones



This is the latest way to install java games on newer samsung phone that wont allow the older methods, this is because samsung have put restrictions in the Java installer of newer phones and this method gets around it this security issue.


This method works on Samsung Tocca but it should work on new samsungs (i know it says Tocca so dont reply to this name).

Download Driver & File Explorer at the bottom of this page (java install).

Uncompress SAMSUNG_Composite_USB_Driver_4_34_WHQL.zip and execute Setup.exe.
Connect F480 to PC. First time you should be prompted with a 'device installed and ready' message.
Execute TkFileExplorer_2.2.exe
Go to Settings - COM.
Scroll down Port window: You should get just one COMxx option. Choose it and press OK.
Go to File - Connect. You should get the F480 File System Tree at TkFileExplorer bottom half side.
Go to /Exe/Java/Games
Create a New Folder for your game
At TkFileExplorer PC upper side select game JAD/JAR files and copy to F480 created folder using drag&drop or right button menu Download option.
Repeat steps 9 & 10 for all games you want to install at a time.
Disconnect USB cable
Dial *#6984125*#
Go to Internals (Master Key: *#9072641*#)
Go to Storage Settings and select Update Java DB


NOTE 1:
You do not need to change Samsung USB mode to Qualcomm. Leave it at its default Samsung mode (if you do not understand this just do nothing )
NOTE 2:
Once driver is installed, Samsung PC Studio 3 still works.
Note 3:
After executing Sansung PC Studio 3 you may need to restart your F480 to have TkFileExplorer working again. Consider this if you get some connect problem.
Note 4:
You can also delete the built in games using TkFileExplorer it will allow you to delete the 'built-in' game Photo Puzzle whitch is locked at F480 and cames inside folder /Exe/Java/Locked Games

WARNING:
Be careful with TkFileExplorer delete option!
it is a one-touch action!, it do not ask for confirmation.

Please note - if you are having problems with the code then you need to update your firmware.

Please note - If you get a bar at the bottom of the games follow the below info -

Just edit the MANIFEST file, zipped in the JAR file and add the line:
MIDlet-Touch-Support: True

So you just open the JAR file with winrar, then find MANIFEST, open with notepad and add the line
MIDlet-Touch-Support: True

Save the file, re-ZIP the files and rename back to a JAR file.

This should remove the bar.

Have fun and reply with you comments to help other users having problems. The following may help you to understand the above if its to complicated.

First open samsung PC studio and from the desktop of my computer then drag the jar/jad files into the "Other Files" and put them in a new folder then close the samsung PC studio. After restarting the phone, you open TkFileExplorer. From the phone window of TkFileExplorer then open 'media' then 'Other Files', and then you drag the jad/jar file folder into the Local Disk (C at the upper left side of TkFileExplorer window. After transferring the folder you open 'Exe' then Java and then you drag the jad/jar folder from the local disk back into 'Java'. Under the the File Menu you then ** 'disconnect'. You then enter the codes into your phone and under Storage Settings you then Update media database, Update Java DB, Update application database and Create Ax Dat File. When you return to the 'Games and more' under my phone, the game should be installed - good luck
