How do we run the midlet in background

[rahulkrishna]

Hi All,

I have made a sample code to run the midlet in background by calling the display.seCurrent(null) method in startApp() method.
I am testing this on nokia 2630 classic handset 5th Edition.

When I launch the application the following screen is coming with Quit command and with the following string.

"sampleApp running"
"Nothing to display"

When I press the right softkey to Quit its close the sampleApp (my midlet).

Please suggest me what to do to make the mobile's main screen visible while my sampleApp is running in background.




Thanks
Rahul

Hi,

The Nokia 2630 is, as you say, a Series 40 5th Edition device. Series 40 phones cannot run MIDlets in the background because they do not support multitasking. Only S60 phones can.

Hi,

But I found in the nokia forum that 40 series 5th edition will give support to run the midlet in background.
