Hi,
I know HTC supports java. With regard to that, I have some questions/doubts.
1. Whether the HTC supports Applet, in other word the IE/Opera/Skyfire browser supports applet? Since many of the banking application I am using is having the logon in applet and it's not loadind in opera. Any idea how to achieve it?
2. I have installed Mysaifu JVM which will run the java program. So it accepts .class file or .jar file. I need to compile it in my phone. How can I do it?
For example: I will write my own java file(.java). I need a compiler to compile the .java to .class file.

I really want to use a name picker (randomly picks a name from a pre-defined list)
Google reveals this java version is exactly what I need for a desktop
Is there any way I can use it on the pocket pc (does not work in midlet manager)
http://www.davebsoft.com/jaws/apps/namepicker.jnlp
You normally need a jar version of the program to work with midlet manager - best you do a search for a jar version.
The author kindly sent me his JAR file for this app. I have placed it onto my device but cannot open it
Is it incompatable or am I making a silly mistake
Thanks
Hays
Is that the zip he sent you or did you send you a jar file? Even when i rename it namepicker.jar it wont install, i am sure there is something wrong with the file.

he sent this text in his email
The jar file is here, but it probably isn't set up the way you need it:
http://davebsoft.com/jaws/apps/lib/namepicker.jar
I downloaded it but can't get it working
yep - still says invalid - contact the author again he must have a valid jar that works
will do
thanks for your help
the author replied
"invalid" in what context? It's valid in the context in which you've been
running it on your PC or whatever. Maybe it lacks a manifest file or
something. There are free tool to extract and rebuild jar files.
The message it gives is that it has an 'invalid java application desciptor' i.e. the jad part of the jar is wrong.
just a guess, but its probably made for jave for desktops, not j2me.
OMG. The Java that is written is for PC (or eqv) Java not for Java for phone (eg. midlet). That's why it doesn't run. Midlet is a very small subset of the real Java, the code is different, and there isn't much function in midlet version of java, and it is a pain to program in midlet-java (whatever you call it). Hence the JAR is not working. Try running it on your PC, it will work.
No, you can't extract it and run it on your midlet-enabled phone. No, even if you have the source, you can't do that either, unless you translate the code manually. I don't think there is a converter for that matter, especially it involved GUI.
That explains it
Anyone up for the challenge of writing a good pocket pc version ??
Hays
Try this one...
This is an OSS JVM that's meant to be J2SE compliant so it might just run. Try your luck.
Hi there...
I have embarked upon the developement of a slimserver client for the pocket pc using c#. There is no decent one around that I know of!
Anyway, it is going to be open sourced, and I have already implemented the use of the CLI interface. however, I am a bit stuck with the XML one. I have attached the relevant sources! The problem is that when it runs through the emulator, it is unable to deserialise a slimserver xml file and returns a NotSupported Exception (I have attached a sample xml file). I generated a c# class library for slimserver's xml schema using xsd.exe.
The funny thing is that when I run the compiled .exe file in windows (without the emulator), it runs smoothly, and deserialises it perfectly! It also works when compiled for a normal desktop application!
Could someone help please?
Hello,
I'm currently in the need to code a C++ app under Windows Mobile 6 that starts an installed Java app. I already hoped that call system("java java_app") might work, but my C++ compiler (VS 2005) does not even know system() function. And I don't think it would work this way: to install a Java app, I start a .jar file, and then, I can start the app manually via start menu under Start -> Program Files -> Tools -> Java, where I can select from all installed Java apps, and obviously, the installation does not create .jar or. class files anywhere in the file system. The Java runtime environment on my phone (HTC Diamond) is an Esmertec Jbed.
Thanks for any help.
As far as I could find out, Java apps under Jbed JVM can be started from command line by
\windows\jbed.exe -run sX_
where X=0,1,2,3,... ist the index of the desired app in the list of installed Java apps. So, Java app can be started from C++ programm using ShellExecuteEx(), filling the lpFile member of the SHELLEXECUTEINFO parameter with "\\windows\\jbed.exe" and lpParameters member with "-run sX_".
Very nice, so far, however, there are two troubles remaining:
- the index X of the desired Java app depends on the sequence, in which the Java apps have been installed
- the Java midlets have a hierarchical structure. A midlet might contain several sub-midlets, but only the highest-level midlets are accessable by the s-index
Well, I think the hierarchical structure is a solvable problem, the desired midlet can be installed as a top-level midlet. But still the index problem. Is there maybe a registry entry that maps midlets to indices?
I found the solution!
Jbed stores for each installed midlet a sX_.jah, sX_.obj and a sX_suite.utf file in \windows\appdb folder. The .jah and .obj are binary files, but the .utf files are readable text files that contain some information of the corresponding midlet, that enables one to identify midlet from index X. So, all I need to do in my C++ app is to open the .utf files subsequently and to check if I find the information that identifies the desired midlet.
Can anyone suggest tools/utilities that would allow me to disassemble a WM 6.5 dll to reveal it's methods and parameters? In .net desktop world I can use tools like Reflector to do this, but I seem to be having difficulty doing this on WM apps.

Have fun, develop something nice for free and please do it here on xda-developers
There are a lot of ifs and buts to this but here goes:
If the dll was created as a .NET app, then reflector should be able to list the code within it, as it will contain the MSIL code within it. If it has been run through an obfuscator when it was built, this can mangle some of the internals and give Reflector a bit of a hard time.
Otherwise it will be a Win32/MFC/ATL object containing ARM object code. A DLL file is the same format as an exe file i.e. Microsoft's PE (Portable Executable) format. Microsoft's DUMPBIN, part of Visual Studio, (run it from the VS Command Prompt), is able to dump out the EXPORT table which lists the public functions visible in it.
There is a freeware ARM dissassembler , CHARMED, which can run on your device which can display the ARM assembly code, but to make any sense out of it, you will require a pretty good knowledge of the ARM instruction set and basic knowledge of how compilers work. If you don't know what a stack frame is, you'll struggle.

I think IDA is standard for this kinda reversing. If you can find a location where the DLL is called from in another app, you should be able to quickly identify at least the number and format of the parameters. Obviously you can also refer to the import/export tables for this.

Awsome bits of info to get me started ... thanks!!
Is a DLL signed?
And if it is, how does one know it? I use a tool from sysinternals called Sigcheck
Sigcheck
Verify that images are digitally signed and dump version information with this simple command-line utility.
One way to use the tool is to check for unsigned files in your \Windows\System32 directories with this command:
Code:
sigcheck -u -e c:\windows\system32
Though there are way more options than the example above.
As all reverse engineers/hackers or cooks you too should investigate the purpose of any files that are not signed.
Besides some nice sysinternals standard utilities, there's also;
SystemInternals_Suite
For obvious reasons I'm using not a direct link to the Suite. Therefore you need to click on it (on the left) yourself. There's a load of useful utilities there waiting to be downloaded by (would be) developers, power users and system / network administrators (are we not all).
If it is signed with a signature; you need to unsign it before editing it!
It's dead easy.
1) Copy your DLL from your phone to your PC. You may need to use ROMExtractor to do this if you have problems.
2) Unsign it using Unsigner. To do this download Unsigner and the Unsigner batch file here. Copy Unsigner, the Batch file and the dll from the phone to one directory and run the .bat file. It should tell you that the certificate has been removed.
3) Download Reshack
4) Open the dll from the phone using Reshack or the better not free PE Explorer
5) Do your editing.
6) Click Compile String at the top and then save the file.
7) Download Ssigner. Launch it and use Select File to select the DLL file you've just modified. Click Start Sign Process! When it's done check the text file that's created to make sure it signed properly.
8) Copy the file back to the Windows directory on the device using for PPC/handheld/CE free Total Commander. If necessary Reboot.

I'm just starting in my attempt to develop apps for Android, and am starting by learning Java. I have downloaded the Headfirst Java textbook along with JDK and Eclipse. However, I can still not open the .class and .java extension files needed for the textbook. Perhaps I did something wrong? What exactly is supposed to open those files? I am running Windows 8 and have not figured this out. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

.class is a compiled executable, just like exe why you need to see the content of it, .class is meant to be executed. just do java <yourclass_name> and press enter. in CMD prompt. it will run.
as you said you had installed eclipse/JDK?, then to open java file it is an editor.
Are you facing anything else ?
Amit
Eclipse can be kinda funky if you haven't got your classpath set up correctly. Try installing Intellij IDEA and opening the .java files in that, compiling then running.
If you have a hard time installing JDK
Try goormIDE
You can easily build a development environment with a cloud IDE service that provides docker-based containers.
