I suspect many of us do, but can't be bothered to answer.
Unzip, drag and drop the .jar to your phone.

More likely than not, any zipped file that has files that you have no idea what they are, was not meant for your phone that only handle java games.

You have to remember that there are phone out there that are basically hand held computer that you can also make calls with. Bigger screens with better graphics, much more memory and and faster cpu's.

So if one of those files you are talking about isn't a readme file, or something else in that zipped file, at least says what phone or phone OS it works on, you can pretty much assume that YOUR phone isn't one it's for.

I suspect it's simply a renamed file.
Try taking the .zip off the end (renaming it to .jar) then upload to phone.
