    iirc under the hood sis files get installed to internal memory first then moved to the card since there's compression and temporary files to keep in mind as a rule of thumb you should have 1.5 times the size of the sis free on the phone the ngage only has 3.4 mb so good luck with anything bigger than 2 mb theres ways around that you can manually unpack the sis and copy the contents to the mmc but really why not just get a better phone for non ngage titles
    Iirc, under the hood SIS files get installed to internal memory first, then moved to the card. Since there's compression and temporary files to keep in mind, as a rule of thumb, you should have 1.5 times the size of the SIS free on the phone. The N-Gage only has 3.4 MB, so good luck with anything bigger than 2-3 MB. There's ways around that - you can manually unpack the sis and copy the contents to the MMC - but really, why not just get a better phone for non-N-Gage titles?
