Did you read the Guide to Modding sticky at top of forum? It has a whole section on installing MPKG with step-by-step instructions. There are different versions for different firmwares - you have to make sure you get the correct version of it will not work!!

You can also install SmartAsst that does the same thing.

thanks got it.

here is the exact procedure.


• You need to know what version of firmware you have (see FAQ sticky if you do not know how to obtain this). Then make sure that you download the version of MPKG installer that is correct for your firmware. The differerent versions can be downloaded from here.

• If you are unsure and want to try to see if the generic installer works (which is does for most H2 track fw) then use the Mpkg_1200.rar file from here.

Once you have the installer file then follow these instructions:

1. Unrar the file. You will see it consists of a folder called .system.
2. Switch phone to USB mass storage mode and connect to PC.
3. Open windows explorer on PC and go to your phone's SD card
4. Copy the entire old .system folder from the SD card to a safe place on your PC (so can recover if necessary). [If you can not see the .system file then you do not have “View hidden files” on].
5. Copy/paste the entire .system folder from the rar file to replace the one on your SD card. [ This will delete all applications that you already have installed on your SD card - and you will need to reinstall them]
6. Unplug the phone from the PC and restart it. You should see a MPKG icon under Application Launcher on your phone. This may be in English or Chinese depending on the version of MPKG you installed (if in Chinese then you can recognize it as ahas "two swords" icon.)
7. You NEVER run this program directly by clicking it - rather you use File Manager to navigate to the *.pkg file that you want to install and hold the stylus on that file until a small menu displays. Select “Open With” and select MPKG. You should hear a bell indicating the program has loaded.

[If you have already installed some programs on your SD card before installing MPKG then you should uninstall then before doing the above otherwise you will not be able to access them anymore (phone doesn't find them). You can reinstall them when complete]

It has been verified that this method works for the following firmware:
• .08p
• .08p plus
• .53p
• .59p
It is not thought to work if you have 44p, 25p or 34p (If you have 25p or 34p you need to do a partial flash to fix a glitch before installing MPKG. See section on this below)

If when you install MPKG, and then you copy a xxxx.pkg file to your phone and try to open it wiht MPKG, but get the error message "Invalid application" - then it did not install properly. Try the other install method listed below.

Thanks & Regards,

memory card reader is fine, the object is to get the .System folder to your MMC

it is called .system not .System

[nodramachicks]

details, details.....i don't think he would have CHANGED the name of the file...all he's doing is extracting and copying the file thats already THERE...no? Swifty's correct (and usually IS)....Linux is CASE sensitive so make sure the folder is called .system NOT .System...
