How to find out phone model / make?

[the_ether]

Does anyone know how to find out what the manufacturer and / or model number of the phone is from within my J2ME app?

There is no definitive way to do this. Best is:

String platform = System.getProperty("microedition.platform");

This will return useful information on Nokias and Sonys, probably Motorolas. On many devices, it will just return "j2me", which isn't much use.

The format of the information will vary. Nokias are generally consistent, as are Sonys (though, not with each other).
