Installing Software - Nokia 3660 Extended User Manual

Installing software

You can install applications that are specifically intended for the Nokia 3660 or suitable
for the Symbian operating system. A software package is usually one large compressed
file containing many component files.
Note: If you install a program that is not intended specifically for the Nokia 3660,
it may function and look very different from the usual Nokia 3660 applications.
Important: 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 back-up copy of the removed software package. To restore
the original application, first remove the application and then install the
application again from the original installation file or the back-up copy.
1 Installation packages may be transferred to your phone from a computer, downloaded
during browsing, or sent to you in a multimedia message, as an e-mail attachment,
via Bluetooth, or via infrared. If you are using PC Suite for Nokia 3660 to transfer the
file, place it in the c:\nokia\installs folder on your phone.
