Installing a game to a mobile phone - need guidance please.

That phone uses a data cable for PC connection. Ususally proprietary. The communication with the PC with those kind of Nokia phones usually happen with Nokia software. But to install a game you downloaded not from the phone but from your PC, it can get tricky.

There is a program that lets you access the phone; TKfileExplorer. Its basically an explorer for all your phones data, like My Computer. I had to use it with my Samsung Pixon I had.
Installing can get a royal pain in the ass, but that depends on the phone. With the Pixon, after shovelling the game to the phone I had to find the Administrator code for the phone and update the JavaDB. I dunno how it is for that 6060 tho.

As for the site with games, lemme check real quick I know of a site that may have it..

Edit 1: Seems Galaxy Balls is a game that was factory installed on the phone. Still looking...

 

Supported phones for Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview


Your list confirms my phone is eligible, Lumia 521. The windows Insider App fails after ~ 15 seconds, restores data and gives me error 80073cf9. I trouble shot this and went thru all the steps mentioned on several websites including MS without any luck. Short of a hard reset, this is where I am now. Suggestions appreciated.
