Getting a ZIP/RAR file when downloading a game or a theme from Mediafire

Here's what you should do.
*Applies for all games(regardless of the file host) and themes downloaded from Mediafire only. If you're downloading from Ziddu, click here.

Make sure the extensions of your files are not hidden. You will know if they are hidden if you don't  see the .zip or .rar word after the file name. Look at the photo on the left. There is a .zip word after the file name "skull" In this case, file extensions are not hidden. Check yours. If you can see the zip or rar word, follow my instructions below. If not, click here.

All games uploaded by me are originally in jar format but for some reason, you will get them as zip/rar when you download them. So you don't need to extract them like in the method used for the themes, apps and widgets. All you need to do is change the file extension (I'm talking about the "zip" word.) Change the zip word to jar by simply right clicking on it and selecting rename. Get rid of the zip word and replace it with jar. Transfer to your phone.

After renaming you will see this if it's a theme

or this if it's a game

Now let's check if you did it successfully.

Right click on the renamed file and select properties. Look at the type of file. You should see SMT for themes and JAR for games.
