How do you lite a tnt with out destroying your world
Guest answered:

You cannot detonate it since it is in creative mode. Just like how you can't craft or use the furnace in creative.

Well, there is a new update now. Minecraft PE 0.8.0 and higher have Flint and Steel in the Creative Inventory. I'm currently using a Minecraft PE 0.10.0. Just for you all to know, it's not out yet but I'm using a build of it.

As far as I know you can't yet. I think you have to wait until next update. :(

no becuase you can not just dig strate down you will hit bedrock and if you are in crateive mode you can brake it and then you hit the end of the world doing down so there you go
Guest said: 17th Feb 2013 | REPORT
Yep. it was dead scary! I was digging an underground house and I thought "One block deeper" I dug too far, and ended up making a funeral for Stevie 1 and Stevie 2 (I fell down the hole while trying to bury it)
Guest said: 12th Mar 2013 | REPORT
I was diiging too far also. In creative youvcan fly through the hole. If you fall through catch yourself fast
Guest said: 19th May 2013 | REPORT

But y would you make nether portal when its so hard to get obsidien in survival mode
Guest said: 2nd Aug 2013 | REPORT
What I did was get pocket inveditor and spawned a creeper where I was. Since I was close to the tnt, when it detonated itself it also detonated the tnt. All you have to do is go to "edit entities" in pocket inveditor and spawn 1 creeper. Your location is the default coordinates so you don't have to type that in.
I started doing that a lot, but eventually it just stopped spawning in the creeper. Sometimes I ended up with a bunch of cows insead of a creeper.

Guest said: 28th Nov 2013 | REPORT
Minecraft PE doesn't have the nether, I've made the portal and used flint and steel on it and nothing happened, I also tried lava, yes this was survival mode I just duplicated obsidian and lava buckets bc there was only one lava flow on the map -as of 0.7.6-
Guest said: 5th Nov 2014 | REPORT
You need to have a nether reactor, cobblestone, Block of gold and a diamond or iron sword

it is the nether reactor plus the nether machine is very deadly a nether spire will spawn good stuff then zombie pigmen you have to dig yourself out YOU HAVENT AN IDEA OF HOW I DIED R.I.P. My Haus
Guest answered:

Um no you have to go on survival and build up to tnt and flint so you out of luck man see ya later

Guest answered:

Hate the non-detonatable TNT on Minecraft PE. Before it was released, the guys who made it showed them blowing stuff up in creative mode, probably to rub it in our faces.

Guest answered:

Next update adds the nether, or so it's rumored. At that point they will probably add flint and steel to creative as well, since there wouldn't be a reason not to anymore.

In fact, I have the update but still not f&s
Guest said: 21st Feb 2013 | REPORT
It works nether muchinen aoseome
Guest answered:

Minecraft will release flint and steel later on. In the meantime, detonate a TNT in survival. Make TNT with 5 gunpowder(from creepers) and 4 sand blocks. Also, get flint and steel with flint and iron ingot. They are both t the Crafting table so don't worry.

When I killed the creeper nothing happened.?
Guest answered:

You can't in creative mode because there is no flint and steel.

Guest answered:

You can't yet

Guest answered:

Just downloaded the new update (0.5.0). I still can't find a way to detonate TNT in survival mode.

Hello thank you all for helping me, thxs !

Guest answered:

No there is not a possible way to light TNT on creative mode. The only way to destroy things is with the other blocks, or the weapons given.

Guest answered:

I know it is not possible in creative mode but, you can jailbreak your device but it is probably dangerous to the hard drive

you cannot put a torch on it
Guest answered:

To blow up the tnt (or light it), simply set the tnt on the ground, (or wherever you are setting it), and place a redstone torch next to the tnt it will than light the tnt and kaboom. Problem solved

I tried it doesn't work in creative so not even lava can blow up tnt
Guest answered:

No

Guest answered:

Someone said you had to fall on it. Yeah... No. It's probably better to wait for 10000. Years for the update instead of installing this useless jailbreak thing. I have an iOS no duh it won't work.

Guest answered:

You cannot

Guest answered:

There is no possible way to use TNT in Creative mode. So far it can be used as a decorative block on Creative mode only. They also do not have flint and steel because people would try to create the nether portal, and complain that it wouldn't work. This of course means that there is no nether possibility yet. Redstone is useless on the iOS version because it is a very challenging accomplishment for Mojang. Therefore, eventually, it may take some time before any redstone related things are made. Also, this is the same reason why buckets don't exist.

Buckets existed in minecraft update 0.7.1/0.7.0
Guest answered:

He wants his answer not an update which happen and just new blocks

Guest answered:

If you are using Minecraft PE on an Android device, you can download PocketInvEditor to change your world from creative to survival to use the TNT on what you needed and then change it back to creative. You can even edit your inventory on survival through the app or even replace certian blocks with other blocks. And then there's alway modding your game.

Guest answered:

U dnt need TNT! If you want flat ground use a seed.

Guest answered:

If you play Minecraft PE in android download UTK app download a mod free Crafting,you can craft anything you want in survival mode

Guest answered:

It's not possible to light TNT in creative mode (version 0.7.2)unless you're Jailbroken and installed a mod called flint n steel in creative and it replaces you hoe with flint n steel and a hoe combined. You use MCPEpatch to install it.

Guest answered:

I have 4 nether reactors on one world and 3 on the other(on survival)

How do you go to the nether whithout using feel and steel
Guest answered:

Use 'lava'. Place the TNT on the lava flow and it explodes.

Guest answered:

Options
A-Place on lava flow some may destroy but then become lighted.
B-Just use flint and steel by holding it and clicking it.
Hope this helps! =D

Ikr (I know, right?)! He asked the question when the update with Flint and steel wasn't out so yeah... It's just that easy XD
Guest answered:

Use flint and steel... You ppl all were writing like a year ago when the update wasn't out so yea lolSmile

Guest answered:

You can light it. On 0.9.4 I went on flat and exploded it with creepers (to use the monster spawner make a room put the monster spawner in and put the ceeper egg in the spawner) and tnt and there is flint and steel just tap the three circles, tap the sword and there is flint and steel.

Guest answered:

The easiest way is to use lava bucket on TNT

Guest answered:

You can only use flint and steel or a lava bucket to light tnt. There is no other way you can light TNT.

PandaMan19 answered:

You can't because if you try it yourself it does nothing to the TNT so you have to use flint n steel to activate TNT for it to explode
