anyone tried to download google maps for mobile phones? i can't seen to get it to work. not sure if my java software is the problem on my MDA vario.
also, does someone have mapquest version for MDA? cant download from tzones site because i have hacked rom and did not install the tzone garbage.
thanks, mike
...i've got no problems using Gmaps. I use Intend Java Midlet Manager runtime JTWI 1.0: version 10.1.7.666 build 20051117...
virtual earth mobile
I use Virtual Earth Mobile, just download the program, install and run it and it works. no java midlet app needed just the program. it gets directions, shows road maps, satellite pics and both together.
hello,
a small Q, I'm trying to get Google earth to work on my new tytn but im missing the java plug-in, any one got a clue which java plug-in will fit the tytn (if at all)?
thanks!

Are you talking about Virtual Earth Mobile cos this is brilliant. I used to use a version that required a java plug in but I reckon this is better excellent in fact.

This gives a cab file so dead easy to install.

Java version

Sorry if I was a little dismissive re Java version, and as I'm feeling guilty, here's a link that will help if you really want to pursue the Java, Jar, Jad, Midlet thingy route.
Note "Google Local Mobile got renamed to Google Mobile Maps (gmm) and the main Java class is now called GoogleNav."

Also some more info on Java on PDAs here:
http://blog.vikdavid.com/2004/12/java_on_pocketp.html
I use the IBM J9 java emulator. Works well.
BTW You might like to have a look at MG Maps:
http://www.mgmaps.com/
It can access Google Maps, Google Satellite, MSN Road Map, MSN Aerial, MSN Aerial with labels, Yahoo Maps, Yahoo Satellite, Ask.com Maps and Ask.com Aerial. It's GPS aware (although this doesn't seem to work with my BT GPS) and can access KML overlays (although I haven't tried this out yet.)
Very nice.

thanks guys! a lot of info to dive in, great!
People still use java??? I haven't used java on my phone since I last had a SonyEricsson! I haven't bothered with Java on WM phones.
java and flash are the future of mobiles, they just haven't realized it yet (aside from Japan ) and ajax...
I think the original poster was referring to javascript, not real java code. A lot of Banks and online sites us javascript and it used to be a big problem with ce and wm2002 and wm 2003. WM5 seems to handle some of the basic javascript and then there are several apps for addon such as IBM's j9 or websphere or what ever the name is this year. Also, midlet's are becoming more available

You mean JavaScript? Very few pages use client-side Java and I don't think this will change.

Nope, Google Earth is Midlet-based; see my Midlet & Google Earth -related articles.
Is there any way you can get a pluggin that makes java midlets (J2ME) Work any better? The ammount of midlets that install and then just do nothing is appaling? Sony Ericcsons and Nokia's have multiplayer Bluetooth Midlets that work on either device, why not on ours?? Also one in particular is REPORO (Awesome Program) They have a midlet specifically made for the Wizzard wchic works fine on the Tytn but I have found it is massively cut down! On a Nokia or Sony Ericsson or Motorola (I work in a phone shop so have everything readily available) They can all access the phones contact book and Pictures and Camera so you can send free picture messages to other REPORO users! Now Ive installed all the other brands versions onto my VARIO and they all install fine but then they dont run and crash my phone! Can I get an emulator or a pluggin to fix this?

(Awesome if only for the live football results)
Chat rooms
Free Texts
Free Picture Messages
MSN, YAHOO, AIM, Google Messenger!
Shopping
News
Horrorscopes
And the list keeps getting bigger! Awesome software!! (MAke sure you select the O2 XDA MINI S as your device as its the only Wizzard derivative on there.
Install the J9 VM like others have mentioned.
Oh, and remember: "Write Once, Run Anywhere"...HA!!
ANYONE got VOIP to work on HERMS200?????
If you would be so kind as to help me out, that would be great
This is what I have tried and done so far to try to get Voip to work with my provider, but nothing I have been able to do has worked fully yet. I can not program, as one of the links shows how to make your own .CAB, and from what I have figured out with the rest of what I found, all the codex are WAY to old to work with the ISP’s servers the way they should (or this is the way the provider explained it). All the .Cab files or links referred to files that use an OLD G711 Codex, and I was told that in order for Voip to work right, I need a .CAB file that has the NEW G723.1 Codex for the Voip & SIP settings!
This was a Pretty tricky way of trying, couldn’t quite figure this one out…

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Hey guys,
I'm new around here and I just got myself a P4000 from Telus (Mogul equivalent). I've seen many apps and while it's all personal in the end, I'd like to know what you guys have to suggest as in apps and games for a PDA user.
As we speak, I have those installed:
HTC Home
cody battery tweak
TCPMP - Still have to figure out how to use it for streaming...
HTC Streaming - Can't Make Youtube work
Macromedia Flash Player ActiveX
HTC X-Button
Google Maps
Thanks for sharing.
LiveSearch (the voice recognition is the bomb)...way better than Google Maps as it does so much more.
HTC Home was a memory hog for me. I ditched it.
WeatherPanel
HTC Task Manager
S2U2
Threaded SMS
PocketCM
Actually, I'm keeping HTC Home for the Weather but it seems I'll have to check WeatherPanel.
Also, would you guys mind giving a short description of what an applications does? This way, I and other people looking at this can learn and pick what's good for them! Thanks
okay, the normal voice speed dial that comes with my Mogul, the sprint one, works wonders in that unlike voice commander and the default windows dialer app it actually recognizes my voice. Unfortunately since switching to a custom firmware (My boyfriend installed it using the one from ppckitchen.org) I can't use that as it's not an option. I don't want to give up the nice features of this early windows mobile 6.1 rom and custom features etc, I was wondering if there was a custom rom that had the sprint voice speed dialer app?
the dcd 3.0.1 kitchen has that cyberion voice app in there, u just have to check the box when cooking the rom so it adds it to the rom...however i prefer the microsoft voice command cause i don't have to preprogram my contacts or anything and it just knows what i'm saying, are you talking about the same software?
... Okay, it appears Cyberion's Voice Commander and Cyberion's Voice Speed Dial work totally different, which now has me confused, I'll try DCD's kitchen as I haven't given it a go yet.
