My first J2ME app on RAZR

RAZR rocks. Here is one more reason why i love this phone. I just uploaded my first J2ME app (Hello J2ME !) to RAZR and it worked.

Here are the steps

  1. "Java App Loader" must be enabled. To check whether its enabled , go to Settings->Java Settings. There should be a menu called "Java App Loader"
  2. Download Motorola`s MIDway tool , needed to export JAD files to the phone. This is part of the Motorola`s J2ME SDK
  3. Write the J2ME app and package it into JAD. Refer to this doc for more details
  4. The USB cable can be used for transfer. Make sure the COM port is set correct in MIDway tool
  5. Click on "Java App Loader". "Insert cable now" msg appears
  6. Open the MIDway tool now. It should now connect to the Phone.
  7. Once connected the JAD can be uploaded to the phone and it will appear under "Games & Apps"
