Location API Problem

[martinsjulio]

Hi!
I have a problem. In my application, when the LocationUpdate called by the LocationListenner, that happens the phone calls to confirm the user to use the data for positioning.

Who would have some idea of what can be?

Hi Julio,

to avoid those permission popups you should manually modify permission settings of your MIDlet. Instructions on how to do it are available here:
S60 devices
S40 devices

Note however that, on unsigned MIDlets, most you can get is usually an "Ask first time" setting, that will allow your users to use positioning functionalities with only 1 permission popup per MIDlet usage.

If you want to totally avoid those popups, the only thing you can do is to sign your MIDlet with a certificate from a Trusted 3rd party authority (like Verisign).

To get more infos about Certification and Java Security Domains you can look at this detailed Forum Nokia Wiki article:

Ok! Thanks! Saved my life!
I found the option and it works!
Is there any way to configure this directly in the application descriptor JAD?

Hi Julio,

no way to automatize this process: MIDlet permission settings can only be manually modified by final users..
