How to convert dm to sis files
Whenever you directly download any file from the Nokia Store to your computer, sometimes it get saved with .dm extension. And if you try to install the same file in your Nokia Phone, it would get installed (you will get error: file not supported). Here, we are going to guide you How to rename or convert dm to sis files.
1. Download and Install Notepad ++ on your computer.
2. Now find the .dm file that you want to convert to .sis. Once you have located the file, right-click on the file and select “Edit with Notepad++” (We are using Internet Tracker.sis.dm file as example to convert it in .sis file).
3. Notepad++ will open the file source code. Now, you have to edit the file source code carefully otherwise file will be not able to work properly or may get corrupt.
Firstly, “cut” the following lines from the top of the source code:
–boundary-1
Content-Type: x-epoc/x-sisx-app
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Secondly, “cut” the following lines from the bottom:
–boundary-1–
4. Now Go to File and click on Save button. After saving the file close the Notepad++.
5. Now, you have to rename the file from .dm to .sis. To rename, press F2 from the keyboard and remove the .dm after the .sis.
6. Once you are done, try to install the file on your phone. To install the file you can use Nokia Suite.
Now, you will be able to see that the edited .dm file is working on your phone.
