Which device are you using? Is this 't' problem something that
happens with every midlet? My VM does its own keymappings from
the device to JavaME keys. However, if the microemu test midlet
does not have any problems, it is quite likely that the midlet itself
is trying to do its own keyboard handling (or perhaps it uses a
graphics library that tries to do it).

I can confirm the download issue with the UCBrowser midlet. I
expect it uses jsr 75 to get file system access, and I support this
JSR in my build. Unfortunately I do not see any errors or
exceptions. So it is really hard to figure out what assumptions
UCBrowser makes, or what it is trying to do :-(

Here comes small question - sorry if it was covered before, but I don't remember it nor search gave me any results:

In "dumb phones" with java support, there was an option to "ask everytime" if application is allowed to send/receive data (over gprs, for example). It was extremely useful for programs, that got stupid restriction - for example, mentioned public transport payment program was closing itself after ~30 seconds, as miserable way of "preventing" people from just sitting with program open and hitting "yes" to "buy ticket?" prompt, when ticket control arrive. To make things worse, next starting of application was delayed to ~3 min of starting time.

As result, due to slow gprs connection or whatsnot, many times it wasn't enough time to pay for ticket. But, thanks to "allow connection" prompt, one was able to "sit" at this prompt - application was kinda "paused" in meantime - time counter started to work again only after answering.

Is it possible to simulate such mechanism in phoneME?

/Estel

// Edit

Maybe just pausing midlet, when phoneME is not in focus, i.e. when browsing taskbar/doing other things on phone? It would be enough, I suppose, and could be usefull in many other cases as well (pausing java games when doing something else etc)

// Edit 2
Small glitch in .desktop files for OperaMini and similar - field "version" should always be "1.0", as it's indicating version of .desktop file format, *no* version on program itself. It seems, that Hildon doesn't care anyway, so it's really minor glitch.
First of all, I fixed the "version" issue in the latest test builds.
Thanks for this tip.

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

Now, the "pausing" part. This is very difficult to do it "right". You
cannot pause an application at will, because there might be some
transactions going on (imagine a network connection that times
out while pausing). It would break the application. Ideally, the
application (or midlet) should be in a quiescent state. To
understand why quiescence is tough, have a look at [1].

I could see if there are ways to block the process with a signal,
as suggested, or pause the thread in which the phoneME VM is
running, but I cannot give guarantees that this will always work.

Cheers,
Davy

I have seen this before as well. It should be OK.

I use an N900. The 't' problem is not noticed on any other midlet just the 2go messenger midlet....In the stable build it was ok....

Another minor glitch I've encountered - When program requires on network connection, it - in case of Internet access lacking - shows message about GPRS connection unavailable. Ho ever, if connection is available for part of application's working time (for example, one action requiring connection is performed), then, network is unrachable (due to connection disabled in Maemo), program fail to recognize that - another operation requiring network connection result in program being stuck, forever on trying to perform it (i.e. "processing" and animation being played infinitely).

Even if one enable connection again, midlets neither finish successfully or fail - only one option is to kill them and start to scratch.

I hope that my report wasn't too complicated/confusing

@Estel - this is an old bug in Qt, I have never been able to convince myself to chase and fix it. Maybe it is better to file a bug against CSSU, maybe along with the momentum it is gaining these days, there will be someone who will smash it.
