download and unzip loader.zip. it contains 4 files. connect usb mass storage and make new folder "loader" in sdcard\.system\QTDownLoad
make sure you can view hidden files. in explorer settings. send these 3 files to the loader folder. you should now have:
sdcard\.system\QTDownLoad\loader\lin_loader
sdcard\.system\QTDownLoad\loader\loader.png
sdcard\.system\QTDownLoad\loader\loader-sm.png

send test.lin to phone.

next, edit sdcard\.system\java\PlugCardDB using any unix compatible editor. wordpad is fine, but do not use notepad. if you have installed some apps into the card, you should have a pretty long file. insert these lines into the end of the file:

[AppLinkRecord100000101] <- change this number so it doesnt conflict
AllPosition = 200 <- change this number so it doesnt conflict
BigIcon = loader.png
Directory = * (see below)
Exec = lin_loader
Group = 3
Icon = loader-sm.png
InstalledDate = 2005/2/19
JavaId = -1
Mime =
MpkgFile =
Name = LinLoader
OsVersion =
Position = 1
Rotation =
Shared = 0
Size = 24K
Type = * (see below)
uid = 100000101<- change this number to the same one above.

* for a780:
Directory = loader
Type = 4

* for e680i:
Directory = ../../../../mmc/mmca1/.system/QTDownLoad/loader
Type = 2

restart phone. for a780, you should now see a down arrow icon in tools with the name "LinLoader" while in e680i it will show "AppName". open file manager and tap and hold test.lin -> open with. select "LinLoader" for A780 and that down arrow icon for e680i, it should be at the end of the list. check the "always use the program to open this filetype".

close and reopen file manager. new file test1.txt should be created. your lin loader is installed successfully.

for e680i, this however doesnt gives lin loader a nice name, but it work tho

edit: change steps for A780 as per JakCrow
edit: forgot to insert "Name =" field as per Rudeman
edit: simpler steps provided by yan0, thx dude




to install lin loader do this (some other guy wrote it i just copied it)
then open the mpkg.lin file then u will c a .jar file install that and there u have it. but after doing all that i was still unable to install the .pkg files.

i don't get it when it says change # so it doesn't conflict... do i just change to any random #?

and for the directory? do i put it as ../../../../mmc/mmca1/.system/QTDownLoad/loader
or
SD/.system/QTDownLoad/loader

I followed the same procedure as sialkoti100 did. I see 2 icons one with flowers and another with windows installer icon. When i open .pkg file with either of this, i just see a black screen for a second and then it disappears but nothing is installed . Anyone who can help in this ??? Did is missed anything while installing mpkg??

where do u download the mpkg?


- After finish section 2 below, connect pc in mass storage mode, delete the java directory in ".system" folder of SD card. Activate icon.

i followed that thing and then... poof... my program disappeared from the list... was that what happened to urs?
