    I know there has been posts of this in the past I still havent really got a clear answer. In some threads i read about software making it possible to download jad/cod files etc. But i havent been ableto make thiswork.
    Also i have wifi and someone mentioned it was possible over that. But When i go to my email( not the bb email as i dont have a plan) i cant clicka link with the bb^^
    So is there anything working that someone tried out??

    OTA for software updates certainly will not work but app OTA updates should work fine over wifi

    Unfortunatly, Wifi without a BIS plan does not get you access to BlackBerry App World. That is the source of, and only OTA that developers have agreed to use.

    There are other sources of Java programs, called Midlets, that are freely available to you through your Hotspot Browser. The problem is, they are all trivial apps, primarily simple games.

    I have used a ota downloader software from my computer, that has been successful.
    It turns ota url into cod jad files that I then upload to my memory card and then download to BB. I do themes and and have put couple of free apps on BB this way
    this is web site where i got the ota downloader software

    Hi
    You can use GiveMeYourJad to download the Jad application.

    With it you can download all the cod and at the end the alx file is created.
