I built a blackberry app with Phonegap. Phonegap build website built my app and then sent me back a StandardInstall.zip. WHen I open it up, I have cod, alx , csl and cso files. Don't I also need a jad file in order for me to upload the whole app to my webserver for other blackberries to install my app?
If so, how do I create the jad file? If I don't need the jad file, how do I install the app? When I go to http://mysite.com/filename.cod, it just downloads the cod. It doesn't install?
Man, I wasted a whole day on this. So I ended up finding a random jad file on the internet which i"m posting here:

Replace anywhere you see [CAPS] with your values. Everything else I left the same. I have no idea if what I've done is a sustainable way for deploying cod files. I also don't know if there are any consequences for not changing any of the other values like creat dates, file sizes, etc...
