    They are both applet formats. Elf was made for p2k type of phones, mpkg for linux.

    I don't know much about this topic but I would say no, the differences will be too much. Elf is written in c and I think mpkg in c# or c++. The firmwares are totally different so all the functions will be totally different.

    Yeah, Soca is right. Mpkg is in C++.

    Righ guys!!!
    PKG have only the source code with shell scripts interpreted by the Bash...
    so it don't need to be compiled...
    Elf's have diiferent functions..and need to be compiled..
    then you can write a elf that do the same function as a PKG (play a music for example)
    But you can't port a PKG to ELF !!!

    there are several types of applications can be run under Linux phones for example as you said scripts application but it is not the only one, you have to compile applications of c++ & QT, there are other types of applications which us SDL , which also to be compiled. I don't know elf what it is exactly, but under Linux elf is an application & if it is plain c language code & independent of phone libraries for example hello world application, then you can bring that code & can compile with Linux phone sdk, & run under Linux phone.

    mpkgs are more contain GUI of QT or SDL, which do not present in P2K phone so cannot be ported to ELF, but basically they are ELF itself.
