If you didnt got any errors from the package manager you can simply follow this guide and make sure the code are placed in the SMF files.
If they are not, add them manually as described from this link

No it's not ok for you to send pm unless i have asked to get one.

Did you add all the code to all the SMF files as described ?

Download the manuall install package, extract the files and upload them and make sure they older gets overwritten
Then point the browser to the manual_tp_install.php and refresh the forum

The only advice i can give you is to download the upgrade package of SMF and take the upgrade.php and the 2 .SQL files from it, upload the files, point the browser to the upgrade.php file and update your DB.
If that doesent work, you need to contact your host and ask them to look at the server settings.
The times i have seen the "download index.php" it's been a server issue.
Sometimes the upgrade of the tables will fix it, but if not you have to ask your host to check the settings for the phpmyadmin and sql

ok if i can explain this well enough, when i do a manual install, everything says success, however no sign of TP, and i installed on the default forum, when i do a package install, i have two failed files, and after applying anyway, it causes the page to not be displayed. am i doing something wrong?

im now deleting all mods to try.

SteveB, when you apply a mod even when you have failures that means that the code is not getting modified in those files. So you have to manually put the code in the files that failed if you proceeded on the install. Thats why its blank after you install.
