Not able to open link in C5 although it have GPRS

[JustStarted]

Hi ,
I am using MIDlet property platformRequest() to do call or open url.

The same is app working fine on other phones like c7,2700 but on c5 the url is not opening.

any help?

Check that what the call to the platformRequest() is returtning, recall that platformRequest() returns true in such cases, giving your MIDlet fair warning that it must exit. Else it will return the false.

That means that you need not exit the MIDlet before you make the platformRequest call. Your application will be minimized and after processing the call to the URL, the app can be maximized.

For the purpose of testing, you check to exiting the MIDlet, whether this make the call to the specified URL. Please share the code for the platformRequest().

code is as follow
public int openUrl(String url) {
try{
platformRequest(url);
return 0;
} catch (ConnectionNotFoundException e) {
//ex.printStackTrace();
System.out.println("url::::EXCPETION::: " + e.getMessage());
return -1;
}
}


i have added return statement to catch if it returns false when there is issue while opening url. So that i can show some alert to notice error.

same is working fine with 2700,c7

You are returning the values wrongly, please note that if platformRequest() returns true, then it is giving fair warning to your MIDlet that it must exit. Else it will return the false. So return the values like this :

boolean midletExitStatus = platformRequest(url);

Try put a Midelt.Exit() to destroy the midlet after the platform call to see if this URL opens in the browser on C5 or check the device & browser settings - is it able to open the URL in the browser w/o platform request from the app?
