EventList program ( how to make an alarm? )

[komomo]

I am reading about PIM and try to write a program that will make alarm after some time preriod from the current time.
But the program do not produce any sound and any display.
What is the problem?

if(c==cmdEventcreate)
		{
			PIM pim;
			EventList eventlist=null;
			Event event;
			pim=PIM.getInstance();
			try {
				eventlist=(EventList) pim.openPIMList(PIM.EVENT_LIST, PIM.WRITE_ONLY);
			} catch (PIMException e) {
				// TODO Auto-generated catch block
				e.printStackTrace();
			}
			
			event=eventlist.createEvent();
			if(eventlist.isSupportedField(Event.START))
			{
				Date date=new Date();
				long l=date.getTime()+ 6;
				event.addDate(Event.START, Event.ATTR_NONE, l);
				
			}
			
			if(eventlist.isSupportedField(Event.ALARM))
				event.addInt(Event.ALARM, Event.ATTR_NONE, 600);
			event.addString(Event.SUMMARY,Event.ATTR_NONE, "Please  ");
			try {
				event.commit();
				System.out.println(event.countValues(Event.ALARM));
				System.out.println(event.countValues(Event.START));
			} catch (PIMException e) {
				// TODO Auyo-generated catch block
				e.printStackTrace();
			}
			
			
		}//if(c==cmdEvnetcreate)

Check this line:
long l=date.getTime()+ 6;

Its adding 6 milliseconds to the current time, try with adding 5 min = 5*60*1000 milliseconds and then test.

Check the device Native Calendar app; if event with Name Please is added to the event list ?

[komomo]

I have changed that. But it still does not work.
I have also changed the duration of the alarm time.

On some device's the entry to native Calendar by J2me is visible only after device reboot.

[komomo]

I am sorry to ask you like that.
But how to check the device Native Calendar app?

[ektasrv]

which device you are testing this on ?

Generally every device has a Calendar application, that you can access from device main menu.

Now i am using ClamshellCldcPhone1. Previously I use DefaultCldcPhone1.

[ektasrv]

Try this on some real mobile handset which supports JSR-75 PIM API's or try to test on Nokia RDA.

esktasrv!
Please don't be angry.
I can't use Remote device acess becasue its need admin's permission to download tht.
Is there any other way? Please.

[ektasrv]

Try on any Nokia SDK say any S40 5th or 6th edition SDK emulator - you can download it from Nokia website.

In SUN WTK emulators, these events are stored as vCalendar files with .vcf extensions.

path may be - C:\Documents and Settings\user\j2mewtk\2.5.2\appdb\DefaultColorPhone\pim\events\Events\*.vcs

see if these files are created for your event.

DefaultColorPhone can be replaced by your emulator name.

I have installed
using that emulator, for a same program, sometimes it don't make the alarm voice, I can see the event in the eventlist. It said that the event has been past.
Sometimes, it doesn't make the alarm voice, but the phone was shaken.
Sometimes, it makes tha alarm voice and also the viration.

I don't know why that is happening like that.

Try this on real device, always set the test meeting time such that it currentime + 5 or 10 mins..else you will get to see the event as passed event.

[komomo]

I do not test that program on the real device because I have no real device.
In fact, I have a mobile phone.
But after testing a MIDlet on the phone as a first time, my phone does not work any more. The phone screen display nothing since that time.
Now the phone is in the shop to be repaired and I still have not got that.

I have decided not to bother ektasrv and other people any more regarding this problem.
But without your help, I don't know what to do and how to do next.
So Please help me. and I really appreciate all people's help from the bottom of my heart.

(1) I have installed Nokia SDK ,S40 5th edition SDK emulator .
The program does not make the alarm.
In the calendar, I can see the event I have created.
The attributes are
Start date: the date I created the event
Start time: the time I created the event
End date: similar with the start date
End time: similar with start time
Repeat: never
Alarm type: silent
Alarm date: similar with the start date
Alarm time: ( the time before start time) for example, if the start time is 8:27, the alarm time is 8:12. The program does not make any alarm may be because of that.

How can I correct that?
I wrote the program to make the alarm after 2 or 3 min of the current time.

(2) When I run the program with that sdk , it shows two message box.
The first one is
“ Nokia Connecitvity Framework could not set a MAC address.
Bluetooth between SDK will not be available.
Terminate all SDKs. Then stop NCF using the system Tray and restart NCF using the start menu."

What does that message mean?

The second message is
"The SDK located java Runtime Environment(JRE) 1.6.0_13.
Unless you install JRE5, the SDK might not operate properly."

(3) The message is also appeared in the console.
"smart card communication error 0x80100017"
The specified reader is not currently available for use"
What is the meaning of that message?

[komomo]

I am really in trouble.
Please help me if there is anybody who knows how to change the alarm time of Nokia SDK ,S40 5th edition SDK emulator .
