How to Send SIS files and JAR files on Nokia S60

When we have a neat or interesting program in our mobile phone, our friends ask us to share or send the program. Even if we have the installer (SIS or JAR) files, everytime we try to send the program via Bluetooth there is an pop-up error message, "Unable to send protected object". Fortunately there is an amazing person who can overcome this problem. Both SIS and JAR files can be sent by Bluetooth without renaming the files.

Quick method

For those who do not need step-by-step instructions, how to send SIS (or SISX) and JAR files:

1. Download and install Y-Browser
2. Download and install BT Obex Sender
3. Select the file to send, click Options and choose File → Send → BT Obex

Step-by-step instructions

Download the freeware file manager program Y-Browser at least version 0.88. The homepage is here, but the installer file is also available here. To send Symbian installer files (SIS) and Java archive files (JAR) via Bluetooth, you will also need a plugin called BTObex Sender. The plugin can be downloaded here.
Install the above two files on your phone. There are many ways to install, the easiest one is using PC Suite if your phone is already connected, or by sending the files using Bluetooth on your computer. Depending on the phone, infra-red may also be possible, as well as transferring directly from internet at your phone (Type the address www.kejut.com/download/328 and www.kejut.com/download/329 in your phone).

After installing both of the files, open the Applications menu on your phone, go to a new folder called Dr.Jukka. There you will find Y-Browser icon. Run it.

Select the file you want to send. Then, click the Options soft-key, select File and then Send.

You will see this menu. Select BT Obex. Then you can select the recipient and they will receive any file you want to send!
