I am trying to run trapster ( http://trapster.com/tmvr/s/tm.jad ) under microemulator. I finally got it started but it cannot access the location services.
can microemulator access the gps data?

Unfortunately a lot of midlets I have tried do not seem to be able to use the resized screen area this is one of them.

note - Screenshot from pc not n900.

Is there any way to get Java apps for the N97 (like the qandoTouch.jar app) to work on the N900? What do they require to work?

What exactly is the Nokia Java Runtime for S60v5? Is it an extended version of ME? A pared -down version of SE? I'm guessing the former, because Java SE doesn't run the .jar files either...

I think MicroEmulator is only designed to handle the really simple JaveME apps (.jad files) and the JME files packaged as .jar are too much for it to handle.

Nokia please make N900 support this

Java 2 Micro Edition support (CLDC 1.1, MIDP 2.0) or higher

The atached screenshot if a .jar app from http://www.traffictv.co.uk. It provides live traffic info and stillimages from motorway cameras. It works, except GPS, in microemulator only problem is font size.

These are from n900.

Thanks fred123, but obviously this is only a workaround which doesn't satisfy. But still: congratulations: I didn't even get that far!!!
So is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Or shall I give up?

I am so lost with this.

Nuts!

I can get the Microemulator running but I can't seem to get a java script, like the one qole posted on the 3D Demo, to even run.

I either have the permissions or owners set all wrong or I need to set the path variable, which I have yet to do.

Anyway, I'm not too sure this is even going to work.

Quick question here.

I took one of the .jar files that was installed on my memory card from that app I mentioned earlier and put it on my home computer desktop.

If I double click on the file (I've tried like 5 different ones) nothing happens on the screen.

I do have java installed on my PC and other .jar programs do work.

So I guess this is my question.

Am I losing some type of executable function because the files where on my memory card?

I'd just like to know if this whole thing of getting UptoDate on my tablet is even possible.

I would post one of the files for you guys to test, but they're all like 7 - 9 megs each.

I sure do wish someone could figure out a few answers for me on this.

I haven't read through all the pages here because I am just checking this during my lunch break and do not have much time but I would like know if java being available on the N900 means that we can somehow run android applications?

I don't want an android phone but there are about two or three apps that I would like to use such as, for example Shazam.

Addison sharing the common plight, unable to run jar scripts(uptodate) on n900. hoping a resolution with nokia bringing java support with new update. fingers crossed

[QUOTE=mughalgxt;520388]Hey mug!

Did I read this correctly?

You're also hoping to get UptoDate working on your tablet as well?

It's really good to hear that I'm not the only one in the boat on this.

Let's start sharing information with eachother and see if we can't work this problem.
