Solution to “JAR file is over max size” in Samsung Units

Have you tried installing games in your Samsung unit and suddenly you were prompted by the error “JAR file is over max size”?

I t will always kill the excitement of playing games in your mobile when you know that the application can’t be installed because of this error.

I want to share to you the secret code that will resolve this “JAR file is over max size”.

The reason why this error is prompted is because the default value for a jar file in Samsung units is 500 KB. So if your installation file (which is always in .jar file) is more than 500 KB, you cannot install it. But, I found a way to install .jar files which are more than 500 KB. Just follow this procedure.

1. In your keypad, type this code:
*#52828378#

2. You will get the JAVA Test Menu after typing the above code, find the OTA Test menu and open it.

3. Then you will see the value 500 in Maximum JAR size field, change the value to a number higher than 500, i.e. 5000.

4. Save the setup
5. Now, go back to your jar file and install it
You should be able to install it now.

And of course, you can play the application now.

If you want to play my sample application which is Guitar Hero in your Samsung unit, just leave your email address to the comment box and I will send the .jar file to you.
