is there a free JVM for Pocket PC
Hi,
i also would like to develop java-programs for the Pocket PC.
But I fear, there is no java-VM for free for this platform.
Or does's anyone know one?

Will the java works on O2 XDA pocket pc2002?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I think so. SuperWaba runs on my MDA (Pocket PC from HTC).

Quest
Can someone tell me how you actually use
superwaba on your XDA?
I have successfully installed the version 3.5
but how do I run an application associated
with superwaba? Sorry I sounds dumb. I
just got my O2xda and am trying to download
a java vm so that I can go into the website that
uses java etc. I know emertec Joede got a java
vm for pocket pc2002 which do not have trial and
I am not sure if I would get refund if their java vm
do not fit into the website that I am trying to go into.
Appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.
:?

Hi,
I think you should read SuperWaba.pdf in the doc-directory of the SupreWaba installation on your desktop-PC.
Franz

Hi all,
have a look at

quest
I still find it hard to understand and use superwaba on
my o2 xda.(I am new in java etc...)
Anyway I got a Joede VM on my O2 xda now,
thanks to your forum and the sharing of problems
and fixes etc.

And nowadays you can even get Sun Java FX on Windows Mobile
http://www.sun.com/software/javafx/mobile/index.jsp

JavaFX isn't exactly Java (use JVM only) and it needs 64 MB of RAM

JavaFX is indeed different from the "Java" we know before but it's something built above the original Java that *enhances* the old Java platform.
On Windows Mobile, the link NoonSki provided can lead you to a cab file that you can try on you WM phones with J2ME + JavaFX Mobile.
I tried and it works pretty well on my Touch Pro 2 running OperaMini, Snaptu...
Have a try

PhoneMe
Well, for Windows Mobile 2003 PhoneMe worked great for me. I cannot post links but you can google it (use "phoneme davy" in Google).
Fully open source and free implementation of JavaME (misses 3D, though). A bit difficult to install, but works for normal apps. Should also work on Pocket PC 2002 and WinMo 5+.

Anyone using Epocrates on XDA/QTEK/MDA?

Anyone with experience using Epocrates drug database on XDA? Their web site ( www.epocrates.com ) lists PPC2000, 2002 and 2003 as compatible but the XDA or HTC is not listed in the hardware list.
Are you only using the Dashboard picture as a background on the Today screen? If you are just make your own them out of it http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/downloads/smartphone/themegenerator.mspx Here's and easy theme maker just follow the instructions ....
I don't know how that /\ posted here that was supposed to be a reply on Decebel's theme post ... sorry guys ....
Faisal, if it works with the ones listed I would be confident that it will also work with xda.
crusin-thru
Thanks. Does the processor matter? Their web site lists ARM. Does it mean that it would work with the xscale processor as well? I am assuming that xscale being a latter version would work.
I have installed programs for arm processer such as tomtom to axim which is xscale and it works fine.
cruisin-thru
Thanks.
Epocrates and the i-mate?
This is in continuation of my earlier post in this topic. The autoupdate feature of Epocrates Pro for Pocket PC freezes up in my PC and the drug databases are not installed.
Using imate/xdaII running "Windows Mobile Pocket PC Phone edition Version 4.20.1081 (build 13100)". Active Sync version 3.7 to connect to PC running Windows Me.
Have written to Epocrates - let us see what they say..
any ideas?
Thanks..

Bad news: there is no way to 'convert programs' from Win98 (or any other versions of desktop Windows to Pocket PC. Most Pocket PC devices have an ARM processor, the desktop machines have Pentiums. If it's Open Source, or if you are/know the developer, you will have the "source code" to the programme, you may be able to (usually after quite some work) "compile" the program to run on Pocket PC. But my guess is this doesn't apply to you, so I'm afraid to say you're out of luck.
The makers of this programme don't offer a Pocket PC version? Otherwise, you could try to use MS Terminal Services or VNC to "Remote Control" your PC at home. Note that this is almost never an ideal solution, but I though I'd mention it.
plus guys i have got the new blue tooth up grade from o2 but i dont know how to install the files cheers
When did O2 release the bluetooth upgrade, where can i get it from please.
Peter's right. And even if you did have the source code, you cannot simply compile it for the Pocket PC. Windows 98 supports many features that are not supported by the Pocket PC because of the Pocket PC's limited memory, screen size and processing power. You would have to modify the program's user interface so that it would be usable in the Pocket PC's 240x320 screen. And you would have to hunt down each unsupported API (Application Programming Interface) function call and reimplement each one using only supported API function calls. That may not even be possible. Plus, you would have to hunt down all routines that allocate memory and make sure that they don't allocate more memory than a typical Pocket PC can provide.
but one does come along way with the sourcecode
because if it's using MFC which many older programs written in
visual c++ is likely to do then with some changes of the dialogs
it could be run on a pocketpc which also support most of MFC
more about embedded visual c++ read here

Help with Pocket Informant for Windows Mobile

Hi all here, correct me if I am wrong here, but is it true that Pocket Informant for Windows Mobile/PPC or any form of Pocket Informant for the Microsoft Platform is free now.
I have downloaded the Touch Screen version for my Samsung i780 WM phone and I would like to know how can I obtain the full working 100% version of this software.
Thanks
It's freeware. Search the forums of Webis (manufacturer of Pocket Informant). They have posted generally valid license keys for PI and all their other WM stuff.
PI is now freeware, it means that the latest commercial version is no longer paying...
You can find the generic key to enter and the latest version to download here :

Hope this helps...

[Q] Is there Java for Android?

Title says it all..............

Yes. It is on every single Android device ever produced.
Java is the language used to write Android Apps.
see http://developer.android.com/index.html
and to quickly see the use of java see the tutorials at http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/learn-java/
Then why can't my browser run java scripts? Is it the browser I'm using (Boat)?
I ask because there is a web page I use at work that requires the IE Java plug-in but it will not run in my tablet. I do realize it may be a security thing on our network but the page loads and it allows me to log in (it always makes you log in on this web page). It renders some of the page but not all of it. It may not be a Java problem at all it's just behaves like IE does when the Java plug-in is not the latest version.
Thanks
Edit - I'm reading up on this as I am not a programmer but would like to know more about Android. Maybe someday an Android noob like me will know something.

What's the URL. I suspect it's not exactly the Java plug in. JavaScript (which is completely different from Java) works fine Boat and all other browsers.

That makes sense. Its an internal company URL. My company laptop died today and I'm using my Prime for work . It works great for email etc. Only this is not working. I'd ask my IT guys but they'll just brush me off since they don't support anything that is not authorized by them.

Maybe your work laptop has security certificates installed on it.

When Internet Explorer and other desktop browsers use the Java plugin, they are using the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) provided by Oracle. The JRE is also known as the Java Virtual Machine. Android devices do not have the Oracle Java runtime. While most Android apps are written in Java, they are based on the Dalvik Virtual Machine, which is a mobile-specialized Java platform that runs Android apps, but not the web-based applets that are designed for desktop browsers. Due to Oracle's lawsuit against Google for allegedly using Java code without permission, it is unfortunately quite unlikely to see the JRE running on Android devices anytime soon. Besides, most of the web is slowly getting away from Java and Flash, and transitioning to HTML5.
So in short, Android does have Java, but just not the kind you're looking for in this particular case.
So is there a way to use it?
I tried to upload a bunch of pics to FB using the standard web page and it wouldn't pop up a window to access the file system.
I like the tablet/dock netbook concept a lot, but it's annoying to still need my laptop when trying to upload a bunch of pics.
