Series 40 Webinar: Working with persistent storage in Series 40 apps (Featured Video)

This webinar gives you an in-depth look at strategies for persistent storage in Series 40 Java™ apps. We look at two options, MIDP 2 RecordStore and the FileConnection API. RecordStore is part of the Java ME Record Management System (RMS).

Java expert Michael Samarin of Futurice gives you an overview of usage scenarios, including state preservation between user sessions, local storage of configuration data, and other ways to use local storage to make your apps more compelling. In the coding demonstration, Michael illustrates data-caching strategies using RecordStore for network-based applications and games.

3D print a shell for your Nokia Phone (Featured Article)

Here at Nokia, we like to be on the leading edge, and we have for you what we believe is a phone manufacturer first – providing the mechanical drawings for a phone’s back shell so you can make modifications or accessories to print out on your 3D printer.

While the outside of the phone case can take almost any shape, limited only by your imagination, the inside is a bit trickier. You have to make sure there’s room for the battery, antennae, and other protuberances, as well as openings for buttons, speaker, microphone, etc. Not fun to figure out on your own, so we’ve taken the guesswork out of the equation for you.
