Hi,
i'm not a developer but i can say that Java J2ME is not very used on pocketpc platform (many PPC do not even have any java support). If you wanna develop managed code then go for .Net (vb or c#) or you can make native applications in c++. The problem is you'll need to buy MS Visual Studio (unluckily, the free Visual Studio Express doesn't support mobile devices). AFAIK
Bye
try using search for J2ME
you'll find tons of posts about it
most likely an url to where you can download the wm too

JSR-82 (java-bluetooth) Possible for hermes?

Hi all,
I have done some searching from the forums about java using bluetooth and did not find anything. This is my first post here so blame it on my noobiness if I just missed it.
So.. what I understand (and that is not much in win based mobile devices at this point) the JSR-82 is a some kind of a "framework" which enables java to use bluetooth in applications. I have been trying to use some java applications meant to be used with bluetooth, only to find out that it is not supported with hermes (HTC Tytn with win mobile 5.0 to be more accurate.)
Now I am asking you is there any way around this and is it possible to get this JSR-82 whatever working with my tytn. It would be nice since it would enable the use of java based chat applications and such, which are using bluetooth. Java for that reason that then I could run the same applications as my friends for example with sony ericson.
Sorry for my bad language and bare in mind that this is my first post. thanks for all the answers and have a nicest day!
Sincerely yours,
Henry
No one else wants to use bluetooth functions thru java? or am I missing something critical here?

Countdown Timer

Is there a Countdown Timer application that doesn't use the .NET COmpact Framework?
.NET slows down my desktop, I don't even want to know what it will do to my 8125.
I'm looking for a Countdown app in which I can put in a specific date and it will tell me how many days, hours, minutes seconds I have. A Countdown, pretty much.

Try this out for size!!! Just take off the .zip and then run!
Nice program, but too bad it needs .NET
Well, .NET is not "slowing down" your computer! .NET is part of your OS since Windows XP, so, without .NET you wouldn't even have a functioning OS. Even Windows Mobile has the NET COMAPCT FRAMEWORK build in since version 5, so, there is no way around it!
You might wanna try out this one - haven't tried it myself, so, I am not sure if it will work properly: http://www.pocketone-soft.com/stopwatch/2003sevga.php
Yeah, maybe your right, but when I run the application, it asks for a newer version of .NET
.NET is not a native part of Windows XP SP2, it is a separate component.
Any software that requires another piece of software to be installed is called bloatware in my book.
The application you posted is a stopwatch, not a countdown timer

Well, looks to me like the programmer of that software did not use the standard COMPACT FRAMEWORK but the latest (either 2.x or a higher BETA) when he compiled the program! Howeever, .NET will not slow you downit is in fact even increasing the speed of a higher OS, such as XP with latest updates and VISTA.
I had to write an article for it in a local pc magazine - I published it later in a programmer forum - you still can read it here: http://www.codingmonkeys.com/index.php?topic=1014.0
You will have to live with the fact that programmers will start more and more with developing .NET application - there is no way around it!
If you really want to find a 'non' .NET application look for older software (PPC 2003) which is out already for a few years. If it is only a countdown timer you're looking for it can't be too hard to find!

Introduction and question

Hi everyone.
I've just been turned to the dark side from my years-long Nokia fetish, and have got myself a VERY tasty HTC Touch Diamond.
One of the deciding factors for me getting this phone is the fact that I'm a developer by trade, currently using C# & .Net 2.0, in Visual Studio. Obviously, this sets me up nicely for developing software for my new mobile.
I've already written one app, just out of necessity, which starts up GPS, starts QuickGPS, rotates the screen and then runs TomTom (it also closes everything it started and resets screen rotation when TomTom is closed.)
This was a nice introduction into programming for the windows mobile platform, but I have bigger ideas and would love to put them into practice.
I just wondered if there were some nice all-round help sites with reference for the compact .Net framework. I'm used to developing with the whole thing and have already found things that I couldn't do.
Besides, the compact framework (I assume) must have methods for doing things such as using the active-sync connection, parsing contacts, SMS messages, on-phone emails etc. which aren't relevant to a non-mobile platform.
So thanks in advance and, it goes without saying, if I make anything that's either useful or tasty, it'll be on here

How to turn off the screen on WM 6.0

Hello everyone!
I need to turn off the screen programmatically in Windows Mobile 6.0 using .NET Compact Framework - is it possible ?
Also it would be cool if I had possibility to turn on the screen programmatically using .NET also.
Thank`s in advance
take a look at examples using ExtEscapeSet and PowerPolicyNotify!
It really helped. Very good code examples. Thank you very much!
