By NEITHER running nor extracting them as root.

Depends on the game. Each uses different name for save file, so you can't tell. There are several in the other thread (Preenv Compatibility List or something...). I figured out how to do Brain Challenge and Blades of Fury.

I have no wifi, so cannot SSH to my device. I extracted on the phone and for that I had to be root. So no game saving for me, because I had to extract as root?

Ok this is in all the pre threads but lets go through it one more time.

Open xterm
gainroot
cd <your games directory here>
chown -R user:users <my game dir here>

This changes ownership of the directory to the id that apps are run as on the n900 - welcome savegames.
