Script: Download OTA app to install from SD card
A utilitarian script to download a large OTA app and all it's COD/JAR/JAD files - such as the Mobipocket Reader - to your workstation so you can install it on your device using your SD card instead; handy if the app is really large, have problems with your device data connection, or pay a lot for the data usage on your device. Usage is simple and easy:
Download Usage 1) save the below code as 'getapp.sh' 2) edit getapp.sh to put in the proper URL and JAD file (Mobipocket eReader used as an example) 3) comment/uncomment the use of wget or curl as needed (depends on what you have installed, I like curl) 4) make a new directory and run the script in that directory Example: Code:
cd ~ Install Usage 1) copy the folder "mpocket" to your SD card, it should contain all the random COD, JAD and JAR files 2) from your device launch the Media applet 3) Menu key -> Explore -> Media Card -> mpocket folder 4) click on the JAD file to start the install (i.e. mobireader.jad) getapp.sh Code:
#!/bin/sh |
Very useful, thanks for posting this.

My pleasure - I needed it to download a large (> 1meg) OTA app myself this morning to test for a developer, so as they say - necessity is the mother of invention. :)
