Nokia 5800 XpressMusic advice sought -- please help

[julie8]

Hi everyone,

Can you help me please? I have a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and want to program for it.
I have strong C#, basic to intermediate Java and no C++ ability.

The apps that I want to build are simple enought to begin with and not too complex.

Can you please instruct me on the following:

1. What is the best SDK for me?
2. Do I need anything else?
3. The general steps involved (perhaps with a pre built program or something like that to help me get started and get the release mechanism understood)
4. Any other advice you feel I should know.

Thanks a million,
Julie.

As you have basic to intermediate Java Knowledge - Try using J2me for programing your Nokia 5800.

Can you please instruct me on the following:

1. What is the best SDK for me? - Get Nokia S60 5th edition SDK from forum Nokia website --> http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.n..._0_en.zip.html

2. Do I need anything else? Sun WTK 2.5 or EditPlus or Netbeans or Eclipse or any IDE you like

3. The general steps involved (perhaps with a pre built program or something like that to help me get started and get the release mechanism understood) go to FN Wiki -http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Portal:Java_Code_Examples

4. Any other advice you feel I should know. -- Start with exploration of WTK/SDK examples on the device

Thanks a million,
Julie.
