None of the bugs have been addressed by Nokia so far (and they were also reported to Nokia development using a "more direct" channel). As Nokia has fired all Series 80 developers - at least that is...

After many failed approaches trying to anticipate the timing and reading in exactly the right moment (worked after a few cycles, but still often crashed before the timing could be determined), I...

There was no reaction from Nokia so far and the device is available for half a year now. Unfortunately, I tend to come to the conclusion:

Nokia does have zero interest in making Java available on...

I understand that a midlet can be installed from a .jar and a .jad is not needed. However, when you want to access certain features from the midlet such as the file system API, a midlet must be...

Whenever I try to run Installer to install a .jad on the Nokia 9500, ithe installer crashes with a KERN-EXEC 3. It works when I open the .jar instead of the .jad, but then I want to install a SIGNED...

I am trying to read NMEA data from a bluetooth GPS receiver using a Midlet on the Nokia 9500 Communicator.

Discovery works fine and I can open a RFCOMM connection to the GPS receiver. NMEA data...

Maybe this is the reason for why the clipboard does not work, i.e. is limited in size.

I really hope that somebody from Nokia will eventually care about Java working reasonably on the 9500...

Developing in Java for the 9500 is really frustrating. There are just too many bugs. I was so glad to finally have a portable machine that can run Java programs. Enthusiastically, I began to write...

So it maybe really is a bug related to localization. You may also want to try http://www.garzotto.ch/9500.html The jars you find there are supposed to work. If they don't, there definitely must be...

Are you sure you compiled for Java 1.3 (and not for 1.4 or 1.5)?

I have no problems to compile Java apps and run them on the 9500 (apart from the many bugs) provided they use an AWT GUI (and not...

Actually, I don't find performance too bad (apart from startup of the JVM). But I fully agree that it is a real pity that the Java implementation has been done completely carelessly. Seems like...

When the virtual cursor is enabled, you get mouse events. Fine. That's what I would expect. However, if it is not enabled, I would expect those keys to generate keyboard events (or at least anything...

I found all that I neede in the SDK - not a description, but when you look at one of the examples that you can install on the 9500, you see how the manifest is built - so I just added one with the...

...but only noticed the typo after pressing the submit button.

I also was disappointed that only WebSphere is supported as development environment. But then I just tried and created a very normal application using Eclipse (generation 1.3 code), moved the jar to...

Moving and clicking the circular pad on the 9500 does not seem to generate any KeyEvents that can be processed by a Java program.

Is there any way to enable that or any other way to get Events...

Deployment of a Java application to the 9500 is actually fairly simple: just move the .jar to the 9500 using bluetooth or some other means, then open it. This will start the installer and install it...

Whatever I try as an argument to the call, there seems to always be a IOException: Unable to start program.

I start thinking that this is not implemented in the version of Personal Profile in the...
