Can't install gmail.jad midlet on Kaiser...

[danild]

Anyone managed to install gmail.jad from gmail.com/app on Kaiser?
I've tried 3 different jvms - to no avail... Results in error messages saying the .jad is invalid. Kaiser not supported yet?

do you have a midlet manager installed?

install the attached file and then try to install your java based app.

Thanks man,

Of course I do, I tried 3 different ones: Intent, IBM MIDP 2.0 and Esmertec JBed and none of these worked. Those were the midlet managers that gave the error messages actually...
Just tried your version of Esmertec JBed, and I WAS ABLE TO INSTALL the gmail.jad midlet with the help of it! :) Still it won't run for some reason though... :( Guess I gotta do some more digging...

Thanks!

Have you made any progress in your search?

I had a similar issue with the IBM MIDP a while back, so I'm interested to see if how you've fixed the problem.

Do you happen to use Dutty's ROM?

I just installed this one to test and it worked for me on my Kaiser.

where did you find that jad file???? i've been looking for a version of the new gmail applet (1.5.0) that would work with jbed and i couldn't find it ANYWHERE.

i have no idea where you got that file, but please accept my sincere thanks!

[PsyOpWarlord]

Your welcome. I did a search on Google for the following: gmail.jad
I found the link for that file on the last hit of the first page of results.

Hello! I successfully install the gmail.jar file and it runs quite well on my htc touch cruise. My problem is that after I close the application I can't find it anywhere in my file browser. The only way I can restart the app is to chose to reinstall the cab file, and then cancel the installation. After that it puts me to a folder called "Java" and there I can see the app and able to start. I think I should run Gmail through the previously installed the Cloudyfa_EsmertedJbed but I'm not able to find where it is installed on the device. Not even the search function is able to find it. Forgive me for being such a lamer and please help me !

What did you do to fix this? I've tried multiple times to install the Gmail application but it can never connect stating that it needs a Data Connection.

Mine just is stuck on "loading".... too bad because it used to work. I am on a kaiser as well.

co-sign, same here. Any ideas?

[Shub-Niggurath]

i use it all the time on my kaiser with no problems.

goto gmail.com/app in PIE (only works in PIE) and follow the instructions. It auto downloads an appropriate jad. Has worked every time for me, regardless of rom (currently Dutty's 29/04)

[freekquency]

It installed perfectly fine for me thru PIE, however (for the guy that couldnt find the install location programfiles>java>Gmail)

but it wont connect, cant seem to get into any settings or anything either.

Was hoping this would work better then setting up gmail thru the mail client, when looking for certain emails w/ attachments and shit, the regular client doesnt have enough options.

Anyway anyone else get this weird need data connection error?

Obviously i have a data connection.

[ranger47]

Try this one

I was having lots of problems installing and then it would get stuck on loading. I used this jbed and it now works perfectly! thanks. I uninstalled the old one. I did some searching and didn't get a good answer - is there a way to hve multiple instances running?

[strikeone]

co-sign....thanks siemi1 - the jbed fix .cab works great and gmail now works! thanks!

[sevin7]

Try this one

Thanks. Worked perfectly on windows mobile 6 HTC Titan from verizon (xv6800)

The issue is IE on tilt wants to block and save the file somewhere, while the midlet installer wants to download the file: they are not working together so pretty much no midlet download is going to work. Thanks microsoft.

I've installed the latest version, 1.5.3 I think, from the Gmail site without any problems. By they way, the Diamond version is a nice fullscreen app. Somehow on my previous ROM the site picked up my Kaiser as a Diamond and installed the fullscreen app. Think there is a setting in the registry where you can change your host type.

Does anyone have a version of "gmail for apps" that works with new jbed's (I'm musing jbed that is in HYPERDRAGON III Opal ROM dated 30.09.2008 for Kaiser (TyTN II)).

Current google version can be downloaded with mobile on http://m.google.com/a and it is version 1.5.<something> but when I start it and try to type username or password it just stops (probably faults somewhere).

I had some previous version that worked OK, but I forgot to backup it and lost it when I flashed new ROM :(

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Just to clarify: this is NOT a classic GMail app for accounts <something>@gmail.com for example. This IS app for working with accounts on custom domain HOSTED @ google (see "google for applications" for more info).
