If you install a file that contains an

update or repair to an existing

application, you can only restore the

original application if you have the

original installation file or a full

backup copy of the removed software

package. To restore the original

application, remove the application,

and install the application again from

the original installation file or the

backup copy.
The JAR file is required for installing

Java applications. If it is missing, the

device may ask you to download it. If

there is no access point defined for

the application, you are asked to

select one. When you are

downloading the JAR file, you may

need to enter a user name and

password to access the server. You

obtain these from the supplier or

manufacturer of the application.

Important: Your device can only

support one antivirus application. Having

more than one application with antivirus

functionality could affect performance

and operation or cause the device to stop

functioning.
After you install applications to a

compatible memory card, installation files

(.sis, .sisx) remain in the device memory.

The files may use large amounts of

memory and prevent you from storing

other files. To maintain sufficient

memory, use Nokia Ovi Suite to back up

installation files to a compatible PC, then

use the file manager to remove the

installation files from the device memory.

If the .sis file is a message attachment,

delete the message from the Messaging

inbox.
