Access Phone's inbuilt applications Using J2ME api

[nirajpendal]

Hi All,

I am newbie for J2ME.
I am developing last sem. project so its urgent, so plz plz help me.

I am developing application to authenticate user when he is trying to access messages(sms inbox),call records,network security,contacts,todo.

Authentication will be done on the click event of messages(all above sections).

So it is possible by using any J2ME api?

If possible then how?

Please provide some help and links.

Can't be done with J2ME. Can't be done with C++ directly, either, but a separate application to protect (encrypt) messages and maybe move/copy them to a private "database" for the application is possible to write in C++ for Symbian based devices (such products already exist).

Thanks for your quick reply.
We are using this application for Nokia N series.
Is there any new API available in MIDP ?

[petrib]

Doesn't matter which phone you use (Nseries or whatever). It can't be done with a MIDP/CLDC MIDlet.

Thanks for your valuable reply.
I am feeling like "Dead End".

[petrib]

It is a dead-end, most definitely, if your goal is to do what you want done in Java.

So, I would say that you should find another last year project, or switch to S60/Symbian and try to do something in C++.

Hi Petrib

So, According to you I can do this thing using Symbian C++.
I got a new idea to resume my stuff, don't know it is possible or not?

A symbian application can give me control to OS native folder.
When user clicks on message section(call records,network security,contacts,todo) this application starts and through this application I can call my java(jar) application.

From Ref:

If i can do this way it would be great.Please help me....

Another problem is I know nothing in symbian.

So if I can do this way please provide me some code to start this symbian application.

Hi nirajpendal,

you'll surely get more C++ specific help by asking on Symbian C++ General board.

About launching a MIDlet from a C++ application, you can check this Forum Nokia Wiki article:

[petrib]

You can get to all the messages and read/manipulate them through C++ APIs. Check the SDK and wiki for examples.

However, if you don't know Symbian and C++ at all, then it might not be suitable to use for your project, depending of course on how fast a learner you are, and how much time you have for your project.

Hi all,

I am trying my best to complete it asap.

As per your suggestion pit,I have also post it in symbian C++ general forums.

Thanks guys for this great help.
