Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I think most important thing is to make support to Davy whit donations and to add copy and paste function soon is possible :) Thanks for your work!!!

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Do you have additional information about this? maybe we can create some of these for other apps to at least get them running while more JSR's are implemented.

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Yes, albeit gradually.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Hi DavyP, sorry for the hack, i'll install new version then :), this is what i mean.. I open the app, i go to Suggest/Invite friend, in the Select Area Box, to find my Country, is possible to write "Italy" but keys are inverted the T is the i and the i is the T. And, to use them, i have to keep pressed the key between the ctrl and the maiusc. I add come screenshots, see in the title bar of the Screenshot-20120228-074536.jpg attachment.

PS: ctrl + t shows a black pad?!

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Ahh, after finally being able to figure out this "strange bug" it turns
out it is the application's own fault. It wrongly assumes it is running
on a feature phone and tries to map digits on characters all by
itself rather than having the platform take care of it. So it more or
less maps characters this way

1:
2: abc
3: def
4: ghi
5: jkl
6: mno
7: pqr
8: tuv
9: wxyz

Tapping twice on 3 gives you an "e". So it has nothing to do with
"i" and "t" being swapped or whatever.

The fact that you have to tap this special arrow button, is just due
to the way you have to enter digits on the N900. So this is no bug
in my port, but rather a 'feature' in the Facebook app itself!

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Regarding handyticket.de
Thanks. Is this due to https limitations in phoneme?

Btw, I tried, without https it works as intended. (How unsafe is this practically? - I changed my pin after trying via web). But there ist one additional problem: After buying a ticket, it comes as a QR code. This is displayed correctly, but a "zurück" (back) status bar obscures a few lines of the code. Any way around this?

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I used the bouncycastle implementation to add https support, but
maybe some things don't work the way they should.

Note that without https support, all your login credentials go over
the network in clear text which is highly insecure and not
recommended. Somebody could intercept your communication
and order tickets with your access code.

About the QR code: does it help if you run the app in full screen
(try Ctrl+Up or the configuration utility) ?

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I am running fullscreen already, without it is even worse. ( I use the N9 btw)
But if it does not work securly I better continue to use the browser version, (even if it is far less convenient.)

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Don´t know whats happening all of a sudden previows games that runed fine they crash and also sometimes it crashes my desktop and I have to reboot. Any ideas why?

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

If I install a new version of the program, it will automatically update the old one?

The Opera Mini will be also a new one?

Thanks.

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I will do some tests with https connections to see if I can fix the
problem, but no hard guarantees that it will.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Thanks for the feedback, but could you provide more details
because there is too little information for me to figure out what is
causing your problems.

Also, I assume with "desktop" you mean the window environment of
your N900/N9, right? The fact that it also crashes the desktop too, is
really strange (perhaps lack of memory resources, etc).

Cheers
Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

If you install a new deb, it will keep the settings of old midlets, etc.
These settings are generated as new files and not part of the deb
archive. Therefore, they will not be removed when you uninstall
the deb.

The Opera Mini midlet (jar and jad) will be overwritten, but it is the
same version 6.5 that I included for testing purposes since the
beginning. If there would be a new version, I could include it in the
deb, but it is fairly likely it will not reuse the 6.5 settings (not sure).

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I meant the hildon-desktop but not allways for example the the task bar desapears or some of the icons (om weather, contacts, flipclock,etc) they reapear with a reboot. It happens running the middlet from x-term, the runmiddlet app, and also from the content manager.
I think it related to the app/game couse opera mini don´t crash and there are books in jar that I`ve downloaded and didn´t have any problem

Sorry I cant post any image now

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

is it possible to have whatsapp.jar working with phoneme?

i tried this:http://whatsapp-messenger.en.softonic.com/java

but give some errors

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

This question has been asked before. The answer is no because
the midlet relies on Nokia specific JavaME APIs for the s40
platform which no (open source) implementation is available.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Hi Davy, referring to this, is it possible to implement existing JSRs about Nokia, Sony Ericsoon etc? Becouse, Microemulator has different JSRs lib on his folder, but maybe are they unusable becouse are compled to work with JavaSE?

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Technically, you can add whatever API you like, but I already
checked the microemu and midpath projects, and neither one
provides the Nokia API this application needs :-(.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Can anyone help with the following app...

http://update.aladdin.com/SW/mpclien...2me_latest.zip

When I attempt to run this on my N9 all I get is a brief flash of grey. I have attached the logs, any ideas if there is a way to get this to run?

Thanks

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I found out one more thing: The webpage below says that connections occur either over wap or http, and that the app has its own encryption, suggesting using http is fine? Maybe it could also be a reason for a connection failure that I do not have a wap access point on the n9.


source: (german)


https://www.handyticket.de/portals/w...tionstest.html


(Unsichere Verbindung öffnen?
Die Verbindungen ins Internet können gesichert, d. h. verschlüsselt (https, SSL-Verschlüsselung) oder unverschlüsselt (http) erfolgen.
Um eine Kompatibilität zu einfacheren Handytypen zu sichern, erfolgen die Verbindungen entweder über WAP (grundsätzlich unverschlüsselt - es werden auch keine schützenswerten Daten übertragen) oder http. Hier wiederum nimmt die Anwendung selbst eine Verschlüsselung vor, so dass der unverschlüsselte Kanal (http) verschlüsselte Daten sicher transportiert.
Bitte bestätigen Sie den Verbindungsaufbau mit "ja"!
)

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

If the application itself adds an encryption layer over HTTP connections, then I guess it should be OK.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Then the only issue left would be the back bar obscuring the ticket.
I guess it would not be a problem in portrait mode, but I do not know if if/how to activate portrait mode on my N9.

Btw, from the file manager "file box" jar files do not start. Only a grey page pops up.

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I am afraid that the back bar obscuring the ticket is something that
can only be solved in the midlet, because it seems to compute the
available space for drawing/scaling the ticket on the canvas in the
wrong way.

A Maemo device has 800x480 pixels in landscape mode. If you
don't hide the Maemo top bar, you have 800x424 pixels available
for the midlet (including the blue bars at the top and bottom).
Excluding the blue bars you have 800x348 pixels available.

There are basically two types of going full screen:
-one that hides the Maemo top bar (because the Qt4 application
goes full screen)
-one that hides the blue bars (because the midlet goes full
screen) at least for Canvas or GameCanvas widgets. This is what
Opera Mini does.

For the first option, there is a short-cut (Ctrl+Up), but the latter
would need to be controlled from within the midlet itself :-(

About the grey bar: yes, I have been mainly testing on a real
N900 device lately (as the emulators are dog slow). I was almost
expecting that the mime type associations would not be working
on the N9, as MeeGo seems to be putting things in different places.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

FYI,

There is a new build (20120303) online with JSR 179/Location API/GPS
support. I only did some minimal testing with a simple midlet I wrote
myself.

http://davy.preuveneers.be/phoneme/public/maemo/deb/

Also, I changed the way I build the phoneME software. I now directly
link the libcvm.so library rather than dlopen() it in the cvm binary
(libcvm.so and cvm are built with different compilers and I previously I
had some linker issues which are now solved). This way I don't need to
mess around with function pointers as much. I hope this makes
the builds a bit more stable (or at least easier to debug).

Happy testing!

Regards,
Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

New build does not work on N9 unfortunately...

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Thanks testing. It seems MeeGo does not come with this library :-(

I guess I will have to again make two separate builds then.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I created two different debian packages, one for Maemo with GPS
support and one for MeeGo without. You can get them from here:

http://davy.preuveneers.be/phoneme/public/maemo/deb/

or

http://davy.preuveneers.be/phoneme/?q=node/10#maemo

Let me know how these builds work on the N900 and N9 (I am
especially interested in midlets that used to work reliably and that now
don't).

Also, my apologies to the N9 owners that feature-wise their MeeGo
build is a bit lacking behind. (GPS will have to wait until I figure out how
to do it on MeeGo and whether I can test it with the emulator).

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Thank you a lot! Now I can finally run my favorite app "Railnavigator" (German railway time timetable) fast and in a finger friendly size!

One question though:
Would it be possible for you to turn this into a configurable option?

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

New build works for me just as the old build on n9.

But is there no way to run in portrait mode on n9?
That would solve my back bar issue.

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Question slightly off topic: does anyone know a java based spreadsheet app that can be used on an n9 with phoneME?

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

I am thinking of adding a configuration option to do that, though
I would need to rewrite some of the drawing routines.

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Yes, I can do that.

Do you see any noticeable difference with anti-alias turned on or
off? I don't see any big difference (could be due to the font or the
fact that my digitizer is a bit scratched).

Cheers
Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Hi Folks,

New build (20120305) online with the following features:
-configuration option to turn on/off anti-aliased fonts
-configuration option for running in portrait mode

http://davy.preuveneers.be/phoneme/?q=node/10#maemo

These options are available in the "MIDlet Settings" application
(for default options), or you can specify the following command
line parameters for the cvm binary to override the ones in "MIDlet
Settings":

-portrait
-noportrait
-antialias
-noantialias

Some other useful cvm command line parameters are:
-fullscreen
-nofullscreen
-bitmapfont
-nobitmapfont

Again, note that these command line parameters do not work
for the runmidlet application (which uses the default options).

About running in portrait mode:
I don't know if there are software options or upgrades for Maemo
or MeeGo that allow the device to auto-rotate its display by using
accelerator/gravity sensors. If that is the case, the midlet
application should receive a window resize update and portrait
mode should work out of the box (this is what happens on
Android), and you should not use the above option.

However, if your device is "stuck" in landscape mode, you can
enable the above option. The Maemo/MeeGo status bars are
still in landscape mode (if you do not run in full screen), but the
midlet itself is drawn in portrait mode. There is a performance
penalty though, as I need to apply a rotation transformation step
for each window update and I also need to translate the original
x,y coordinates of a pointer event to match with the coordinates of
the rotated midlet.

Feedback is much appreciated,
Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Using Community SSU, auto-rotation is present out of the box, at least in case of Maemo and N900.

/Estel

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Hi, I tested portrait mode on my N9, and it works. In particular, the handyticket app is now useable, as the ticket now fits the screen.

Also the bahn's rail navigator app looks better in portrait.

Thanks a lot!

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

The N900 that vi_ sent me has this software installed (CSSU 21.2011.38 Stable), but I have no auto-rotation. I modified /usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini (set forcerotation to 1) and rebooted the device but I see no change (e.g. with the calculator app).

http://wiki.maemo.org/Portrait_Mode

Is there anything I need to configure or install?

Davy

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Great, thanks!

In fact, I can see a difference and it looks much better now. I'm using the Droid fonts. (However, I have to admit that I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to text rendering).

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

If you click on the battery icon, you will see the orientation lock option. Use it to enable the portrait mode. You will know that it works if you see that you enabled the portrait desktop. Btw the portrait mode won't work with the calculator app because it is black listed.

Re: [TESTING] PhoneME Advanced (Java Mobile) prototype release
 

Thanks for the help. I found this on another website,

http://www.mynokian900.com/2011/03/p...r-maemo-5-cssu

but I don't have these options, only:
-Clock & Alarms
-Profile
-Internet connection
-Bluetooth
-USB connected

I guess I need to install a package called status-area-orientationlock-applet to enable this feature

Davy
