JAVA Midlet Manager

[EazyVG]

The reason I openned up this thread is that there were several problems with Toms truly awesome B&B ROMS, including the latest B&B 4.2.

The problems were of several nature, but with the latest one is that whenever you try to install Java application (.jad/.jar), you end up getting a message stating "low space" even though you have a lot of room in your phones memory.

Before the following I as well tried Intent's latest 1036 Midlet Manager, but to no avail with important apps. Tried installing in main memory as well as on storage card.

Here is what I ended up with ... Steps are simple:

I tried relocating the Jbed files to storage card and then applying the reg key which you need to launch. Was getting the same "low space" error.

Then i downloaded the Cloudyfa's Jbed 20070802.2.1 .cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1483665&postcount=24) installer and installed in main memory (effectively overwriting the existing 20070802.2.1 in B&B 4.2 ROM).

Esmertec Jbed has very good Softkey support.

MIDlets, after compilation as .obj, are kept in the same directory, making phone's memory usage even worse. Again, if you manually relocate it, or install it using .cab file onto a storage card, it's on the card that it'll keep its deployed MIDlets on!

Now Opera Mini 4 B2 and Gmail 1.5.0, as well as several other applications are running (though few are still not), and in full screen which is really cool. Only downside for this Jbed 20070802.2.1 is that it doesn’t support for example cookie handling, unlike previous. Apart from that Esmertec Jbed is without a doubt the best KVM/JVM out there right now.

Hope that was of some help .... latetly there has been a mess with all these Java managers.

Just to add a tip, Esmertec JBed is a great midlet manager, but some games designed for Mobile phones require the use of a phone keypad to start the game or select options before entering the games themselves. The keyboard icon on the middle of the bottom taskbar isn't visible while running JBed as it runs fullscreen, so you can do what I did....Map the input function to one of your hardware buttons and away you go. Bob's your dad's brother! Switch the keyboard to numeric mode and it acts like a phone keypad!

I have Esmertec Jbed in my Artemis Touch 2.1 full ROM.
Tried to run Opera mini but it did not work. I use my Artemis with Hungarian national settings. (We use ',' for decimal separator not '.' - usually this is the reason for some software malfunction)
I have read in a Hungarian forum if I change back the regional settings to English it will work.
I haven't tried it yet just I wrote it maybe it will help somebody.
