"Too late" meaning that if you try to convince us that your post is more important than anyone else's , you will just discourage people from helping you, and probably get a bunch of sarcastic replies. It's urgent to you, not to us. Ask nicely, and you will get help.

How to install an application to a real phone?

hi i have writen the classes and i have make the jar arn the jar file.
I test it on the "J2ME Wireless Toolkit 2.1" and i see that it is fine.
now i want to install it in a real phone i have SonyEricson T300 and i set the wap settings sucessfully.
The question is: how can I install my application to the my mobile phone using wap?
what should i do? can anyone explain me step by step? the codes ,the settings, the files etc etc...
thank you very much!!!
Here is the content of jad file
MIDlet-1: Bilkent, Bilkent.png, Bilkent
MIDlet-Jar-Size: 165450

ok. i coreect the jad and jar file. then i install it into the LG 5300.
it supports j2me and MIDP1.0. so i rebuild the code for MIDP1.0. then it works fine!
Then i make the website than i see taht it can downloable from the wp. thats cool!!

Need a REAL phone number to schedule repairs

I spent an hour on the phone yesterday, trying to REQUEST that someone come look at my multifunction machine (we're a HUGE international business, just like HP).
After being transferred to at least 5 different departments because the person at HP:
1) from the model number, couldn't figure out what kind of machine I have.....???????
2) couldn't understand my serial number....they kept telling me it was not a valid serial number, even though I was reading it off the machine configuration page that I printed from the printer's administration menu....??? After repeating the serial number twice, I was passed immediately from a phone operator to a manager.
2) they didn't know the appropriate department to transfer my call to.....???
FINALLY someone was (with random 10-minute hold intervals) able to enter a ticket into the system and issue me a case number. That took AN H-O-U-R. Then I had to wait till THE NEXT DAY for someone else to call and tell me that someone would be at my office within a 2-hour interval to repair the machine.
When he walked in the office, he was aware of only ONE of the issues I'd called HP about...even though I repeated BOTH issues to the ~4-5 people I talked to while they transferred me from department to department. (A constantly-jamming tray and a loose network port......on a 5-month old machine that's used by ~30 people.) Unfortunately, it wasn't my regular repair guy (yeah, this isn't the first repair we've needed), otherwise I would have talked to HIM about my frustrations.
I need a REAL phone number where I can call this repair-scheduling-center DIRECTLY. WHEN the next problem with my machine(s) happens, I do NOT want to have to spend another hour on the phone, trying to schedule repairs.
Can someone provide me with this direct line?
Thanks in advance.
There was no appropriate board to post this on, so I apologize for posting it on the wrong one.

I just noticed that the repairman has been on the phone for 30 mins about our repairs.....most of it has been on hold.

How to cause them to associate my Case Number 185689167 with the real phone number I need to be called at:

I purchased a one year subscription to Acrobat Pro, and after installation on my MacBook, in the LaunchPad (aside from the normal Adobe Acrobat Pro, Acrobat Distiller, and Forms Central for Acrobat) a folder containing two icons. The first was (I forgot the name) and the second entitled AAMLauncherUtil. Shortly after installation I ran the AAMLauncher Util, and it downloaded and "updated" Acrobat Pro and installed Creative Cloud. I was told by some person in Tech Support that I didn't need these two additional icons in LaunchPad, and I could just drag them to the trash.
The folder would not go in the Trash, so I dragged them out of the folder and then the one whose name I don't remember was able to go to the Trash, but not the AAMLauncherUtil icon.
I called Tech Support again, and got a technician whose name I will withhold, but although he tried to solve the problem, basically he was clueless and I could hear him asking other people in the background what to do and they were giving him suggestions, mucking around my library and deleting anything that sounded like it was associated with AAMLaucher, and in the end all he succeeded in doing was making my Creative Cloud not work anymore and produce messages that it was corrupted and had to be removed and reinstalled. Finally he gave up and said that he was referring my Case 185689167 to the next level higher of tech support, who would call me within 24 hours. Of course they never did that so I called Apple Support and a representative there went way beyond what he needed to do and we were able to uninstall and reinstall Creative Cloud and make it work again, although the AAMLaucherUtil icon remains there. Currently, it doesn't update anything like it did the first time I ran it, or act like it is trying to update anything, but it does open Creative Cloud if you have closed it.
Several days later (not the promised 24 hours) I got an email from my Voicemail Service with a transcribed message from Adobe Tech Support saying that they had tried to call me... at the number listed in my subscription payment details... NOT at the number I had told them to call me at, and since I am 7000 miles away from my billing number I didn't get the call. The message requested me to call them back. I did so, and the message on the VRU said I would have to wait approximately 30 minutes. Two and one half hours later (not 30 minutes) someone answered who was not Second Level Tech Support, and reiterated that it was not possible to transfer me to them, and he would note that I had called back and they would call me within 24 hours.... yeah right. By then after waiting all that time to speak to someone I was so mad that I forgot to mention the correct number to call me at... although I had mentioned it previously. Several days later (not 24 hours) they called the wrong number again, and when I didn't answer it then sent me an email that they were considering the case solved and closing it, and I could reopen it within 14 days.
I then called back and this time waiting 3 hours on hold, and the person who I spoke with (whose name I withhold for now) said he would reopen the case and they would call me within 24 hours... again he couldn't transfer me to them. Again I forgot to reiterate the correct phone number that I had told them the first time since I was so mad about waiting 3 hours on hold.
The next day, I realized that I had not reiterated the correct phone number, and I went into my account settings and changed the phone number in both places it exists, and then tried calling back to make sure they would call the correct phone number. This time I waited on hold for 4 hours, and finally gave up without ever being able to speak to a person.
The next day... still no call even to the wrong number since my Voice Mail would have informed me it there was a call.... I called Sales since that seemed to be the only way to talk to a real person, and screamed at them about this issue and was informed they couldn't do anything about Tech Support, or about associating my phone number with my case number, but he would put me in the queue for tech support since nobody was in the queue so they should call me back right away.
I did get a call in a few minutes, which said "If Valued Customer is available, press 1" so I pressed 1 and it went to music. I then waited for 15 minutes of music with no answer, after which I got an email from my Voicemail Service transcribing the message saying:
"Reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine. Your response was not recognized. Please try again. When valued customer is on the line press one to speak to a support specialist. If you need time to get valued customer on the line press two. To reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine. Your response was not recognized. Please try again. When valued customer is on the line press one to speak to a support specialist. If you need time to get valued customer on the line press two. To reschedule this call back for a later time press three to cancel this call back press nine."
... more. Please listen to your voicemail for the remainder of this message.
They can't recognize me pressing 1????? So who know... I was listening to music but did that mean I was really ever going to reach a real person, or was the Voicemail message correct and I would be listening to music forever?
So this morning I tried calling again only to receive message the the Tech Support Telephone Lines were down for scheduled maintenance until August 10th... I tried chatting... that is offline also.
Is there a way to associate my actual phone number with my case number... maybe somebody from Adobe actually reads these diatribes? I need to be called at or after 17:00 Pacific time.... I was told the hours are on Pacific Time.... although one representative who I was trying to coordinate the timing of the call with was very confused about the time zones. He was trying to tell me that the current time was 09:00 Pacific Time, which I knew to be wrong, and he finally admitted, after I challenged him to look on www.timeanddate.com, that it was 09:00 in Bangalore, and Pacific time was 20:00.

Thanks for your answer TSN!
I did try Chat yesterday and it didn't work.... said unavailable. I'll will try it again.
I do understand that this is a Community Forum, but it appears that some Adobe staff persons do read and respond to some messages, so since all other avenues of contact seem to not work, I thought I would try this just in case somebody from Adobe happened to read it and could do something.
A secondary reason I posted the whole explanation is that I thought maybe somebody else had experienced this issue as well and might comment on it.
As for it being a problem or not, maybe it is not. Adobe did work when I installed it. When I invoked that icon "AAMLauncherUtil" the first time, it updated Acrobat Pro and Installed Creative Cloud (which the original trial subscription had not installed).
I then noticed that these two icons didn't seem to do anything useful. The first time I called and was able to connect to support, the rather poor attitude person who answered just said to delete both icons in the folder... that they weren't needed. When I found that one of them could be deleted and not the other one "AAMLauncherUtil" could not be deleted, and since the tech support person had suggested deleting them both, I called back.
The next rather clueless person in tech support spent a lot of time trying to help get rid of it, but couldn't. When he was mucking around in the "Library" he deleted everything named "AAMLauncherUtil" from the Library (but left some stuff I would have imagined could have been deleted like references to my previous trial subscription.
After he got done, Creative Cloud no longer worked and he couldn't figure out how to fix it... we were getting messages the Creative Cloud was corrupted and needed to be uninstalled. He said he was going to refer the problem to a higher level tech support, and that he couldn't transfer me there... they would have to call me which would be in 24 hours.
The next day (since the higher level tech support failed to call back) I called Apple Support, and they helped me find a Creative Cloud Uninstaller and we ran that and re-downloaded and installed Creative Cloud again.
I would expect from the name "AAMLauncherUtil" that this icon would Launch Adobe Application Manager and perhaps try to update my product(s) like it did the first time, OR report that my software is up to date... as most other software update attempts would do. However what it really does now when I invoke the "AAMLauncherUtil" icon is just to open Creative Cloud just as if I had clicked on the icon in the top menu bar of my Apple Menu Bar. The Apple person suggested that MAYBE it is supposed to do that if you have shut down Creative Cloud for some reason, and want to start it up again without restarting the computer. Maybe that is so, but if it is, then I would have expected that they would have renamed the icon to Creative Cloud or something more descriptive of what it is supposed to do.
As is is now, I am not sure if it is a leftover remnant of my original updated installation that should have gone away when I updated and it installed Creative Cloud, or if everyone else running Adobe Acrobat Pro XI has this icon in their Launchpad as well and it is supposed to be there for some unknown reason to perform some unknown function.
After all that happened, I did update Creative Cloud, but that was within Creative Cloud itself when it reported having an update available, and not using the "AAMLauncherUtil" icon at all, so that would appear to negate it's possible update functionality wouldn't it?
Assuming you are using a Mac, do you have such an icon in LaunchPad?
Thanks for your help!

Call with my own client to the real phone network

Hi, I've a shell script in Linux that I need to make calls and send text messages from. I write the program in any other language as well, but for the moment it's shell script. I've a microphone attached to the Linux computer that works. Do you understand the question ? If so, how is this done ?
EDIT: Need to be able to call with multiple instances. So I need to be able to call 5 different numbers at the same time.
Thanks
Envion

Having the same issue. Calls being made FROM my Maryland home landline TO a Virginia number.
I tried calling the number from my office phone, but it goes straight to an unoccupied voicemail.
When I first called about it, the Verizon representative also reassured me there was no charge for these calls, but that is not the issue. The issue is that someone or some machine has access to my home landline and it is making these calls. She was pretty insistent that it must be someone in my home, but much like others have stated, the records show that calls are made when no one is home, or when we are all home watching TV in the living room. We have one phone in the kitchen, so there are no secret calls being made. And certainly not 20+ times a month.
The first representative transferred me to another tech. At first, the new tech dismissed the idea that there could be cross-wiring (what the first tech suggested) because it's over the internet. There are no physical wires to cross.
The tech eventually ran a test and determined there was a "short bound in the wiring," so she said she was going to "reboot the ONC." I don't know what any of that means.
The test came back successful, and she was able to block the number (inbound and outbound).
I told both techs that this problem is not unique to my account; that there are several people on Verizon forums reporting the same issue.
She was not able to explain why, so we are no closer to figuring this out.
All I can recommend is calling Verizon tech support and having the number blocked. We'll see what happens with the next bill.
Also, if it's worth typing out, make sure you're reviewing your bills from Verizon. I've had to call at least five times in the 4.5 months about one thing or another.

Black screen when running MIDlets on a real phone (motorola V330)

Hello.
I'm developing a simple Java ME application as a part of my senior project in college. Up until this point I've been working with emulators and everything works fine. Yesterday I tried to upload and test my application on my old phone - Motorola V330 (CLDC 1.0 MIDP 2.0).
I can upload and install MIDlets without problems. (Using unlocked application loader and a USB cable). When I try to start them, the screen goes black and stays black. If I hit the "exit" softbutton or the red power button, I can see my application for a split second before the program exits. For example if I try to run a game, I see the game screen for a split second, if I try to run a form, I see that form. That tells me that the application can start, but I dont know why I get a black screen.
I tried that with a bunch of applications, even for a simple form with "hello world" on it, the screen goes black.
I also tried some games from SUN examples and I have the same problem.
Anybody can give me any hints on how to solve the problem? Could this be the phone issue or is it some sort of security certificate issue?
I tried googling the issue and searching these boards but I cant find any concrete solutions.
PS. The phone is old and is no longer connected to the network, but it still has a sim card.

Yeah, it's CLDC1.0 and MIDP 2.0.
I've looked at the phone again and found out that in "Java settings" menu the "backlight" option was turned off by default. Turning it on allows me to see my java apps. So the problem is solved.
When I had similar problems with my laptop (black screen, barely visible text) it took me a ridiculous amount of time to talk to technicians over the phone and try to explain to them what I'm seeing. Apparently the problem was the same - the backlight on my laptop's display was malfunctioning. I hope this info will help some of you or at least will help you googling stuff if you ever encounter the same problem.

Please suggest me which phone should I buy?
(Actually I am planning to buy Nokia 6233).
Will this phone perfact for all above features.
Please make sure there shouldn't be any problem with any feature.
Please suggest me.
Your advice/reply would help me in buy the phone.
Thanks
Deepak

The 6233 is a great phone with the latest firmware installed but the original firmware is very buggy. You should check the firmware version currently installed on the phone before you buy by inserting the battery and pressing *#0000# on the phone. The phone will then display the installed firmware version. The original very buggy firmware is v. 3.70. I wouldn't buy a 6233 with that firmware unless you are prepared to immediately go to a Nokia Care Center to get the firmware upgraded which they will do for free. The latest firmware is 4.91. I had tons of problems with 3.70 but so far 4.91 has been fine. (Except for the display backlight timeout not being adjustable which is something intentional (and very stupid) that Nokia did.) I hope they get sued over it when it causes a motor vehicle accident.
Currently using 6300 & 6233 (backup)

I phone Urgent Problem

Dear All:
I have bought a new I phone mobile 16GB 3G, I connected to the internet. and some downloads occur. My phone pad stated to function improperly, so I forced to reset the device by: Settings --> general ---> Reset All Sitiings and contents. A message appeared stating that this operation will take 2 hours. I confirmed and waited 2 hours while a time slider was slowly moving. after that the mobile freezed at APPLE logo and did not start up and remained like this until battery got empty. I recharged again to get the same situation. I Tryed to Reset again by pressing the Sleep/Wak up button together with the home button but still getting the same problem.... Pls advice and help since I am getting mad.

What you did was erased the phone and put it back to factory original. You'll need to try and connect to iTunes and restore the phone.

Connecting to a URL using real phone

Hi,
I have a URL that works perfectly when I use my PC browser.
I have a simple application in my Midlet to access the same URL , but when running the application on my phone and when it gets to connect to the URL, it asks me "This is going over data network, do you want to continue?" and I answer "yes", but nothing happens. I waited for a minute and still nothing happened.
The application is pretty simple. Has anybody seen this before? Any opinions or comments would be much appreciated
String invokeServlet(String url) throws IOException {
HttpConnection c = null;
InputStream is = null;
StringBuffer b = new StringBuffer();
TextBox t = null;
try {
c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);
c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.GET);
c.setRequestProperty("IF-Modified-Since", "20 Jan 2001 16:19:14 GMT");
c.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Profile/MIDP-1.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.0");
c.setRequestProperty("Content-Language", "en-CA");
is = c.openDataInputStream();
int ch;
while ((ch = is.read()) != -1) {
b.append((char) ch);
//System.out.println((char)ch);
t = new TextBox("First Servlet", b.toString(), 1024, 0);
} finally {
if(is!= null) {
is.close();
if(c != null) {
c.close();
return b.toString();
Thanks a million,
S.

Call the function in a different thread of the application
it may solve the problem.
or try to trace the exception if there is as mentioned before.

Where is the actual support for Adobe business Catalyst? Why can't I just phone someone like other software companies?

I am concerned by the 'non help' , customer service platitudes available to me as a customer. I was left 3 minutes to go through auto call filtration to be told that there is no-one to speak to. I am a new customer, clearly I have a different view of what customer service is. I wonder what exec has ever tested this? Anyone in their right mind could see that this is just plain poor and unacceptable.
No a great start, as we stand I will not be recommending this platform within my business community which amounts to 30 companies because I am nervous they will receive the same shoddy service.
Don't worry though, I only have a security breach and need urgent help.

Because they are a large US corporation that doesn't really want to talk to customers one on one. They hide behind call-centers and help sites that are hard to use. It's just better for the bottom line and no one person (or very few) knows enough to give you a useful answer. This is not just an Adobe problem. But large corporations generally suck at service. It's not good enough - but what are you going to do. That said we've had reasonable success with the online chat service - just takes days rather than minutes to get satisfactory answers.
You know it goes like this:-
"What seems to be the problem?",
You " I have this problem, I can't find information on X, Ca the BC do this?"
"Please wait while I check (consults documentation - probably the same docs we can see)"
You "hello",
"One sec",
"I don't seem to be able to find that, can you file a support ticket",
You "Can't you do that now for me?"
"Ok I can do that, your support ticket is this xxxx, but we'll email you. We'll come back to you with an answer later",
You "Thanks".
"Is there any thing else we can help you with today?",
You "No Thanks, just the question please".
15 minutes may have passed by this time, you have no useful answer (typically) and will have to wait 1 to 2 days for an answer (typically) and this is often "No sorry we don't support that right now".
This is typical, so generally we contact support as a last resort only. Google usually has better answers. But then this is what Adobe and most Large Software companies/Corporations want. You almost never get to talk to the "Horses mouth", a manager with clout, the product designer or developer.
We design, build and manage brand experiences for a number of large enterprises, personally we always recommend that these customers set up their support with real phone numbers and email along with contact forms (which I personally hate). In my mind typically you can deal with support matters in the fraction of the time if you can talk to someone directly who knows the product. A good telephone receptionist is 100 times more efficient than any call center (no matter what call center companies and software vendors tell you - the numbers lie). It means Happier customers. Better feedback to those who make the decisions.
Better all round. But usually companies don't see it that way. Managers want remove themselves as far as possible from customers everyday problems and let an underling or "the system" deal with it.
Maybe that's why few humans actually like dealing with large faceless corporations - yet we do, we put up with it - because they can get away with it.

Dont ask me why i have this phone .. i wanted a non camera phone urgently and got a deal for this one..
Don't ask me to google.. I've been doing that for some time ...

The 8707 has a scroll wheel, and doesn't have the operating system to support AppWorld.
So sorry, it won't work. There are newer models which support AppWorld, such as the 9700 or 8300 which has a non-camera version.

Phone Service

My in-laws are moving from the eastern part of Virginia up to the northern part of Virginia. They are currently renting a house. Now, is there a way of forwarding there calls to their cell phones and having the service in the rental house turned off? They have had this number for over 30 years, bussiness calls, family, and of course those sale calls (just joking) they need to have access to. They are willing to contnue paying for phone service so they can forward all calls, but I think it is not a good idea to leave the service on in a rental house if you are not living in it. Please help me in order to help them.

Welcome to the forums. You're talking to other customers here. If you want a response from Verizon you need to call or chat with them.
I've never heard of any offering from Verizon that allows you to keep a phone number active without an associated phone line. I sincerely doubt they can do this for you. If they can, it's most likely a very costly business service.
A better option is to port the phone number to a VoIP service such as Vonage or OOMA. With these services, you install a device that connects to your broadband Internet and then plug your phone(s) into it. Regardless of where it's installed it will use the same phone number. This will give you a very similar experience as a regular phone line. Just pick up a phone and call. Some VoIP providers also allow app based calling so you can access your phone number while on the move. There are monthly fees with these providers that vary with the subscribed services.
Another option is Google Voice. They will charge you a fee to port the number. No equipment is associated with Google Voice; it is purely network (cloud) based. You setup Google Voice to forward incoming calls to any real phone you want. It could be land line, cell phone or another VoIP provider. Outgoing calls can be placed through an app on a smartphone, tablet or computer. It's a different experience than a traditional phone line. There is no monthly fee.
If you do decide to port the number, under no circumstances should you place any service orders with Verizon. This includes a cancellation order. Any pending orders will delay or prevent the number port. Porting can take several weeks, so it is best to get started on it well in advance of your plans to vacate the old property. I'd say two months to be safe.
Good Luck.

Bluetooth connection with jsr082 How can I get paired device list on phone?

Hi all,
Please anyone, who uses jsr082, help me.
First if i tried to get cashed or preknown device lists with function
discoveryAgent.retrieveDevices(DiscoveryAgent.CASHED);
or
discoveruAgent.retrieveDevices(DiscoveryAgent.PREKNOWN);
on a real phone(Nokia 7610) this functions return null, but I have paired devices (and one of them are active when I tried this app)on my phone.
Can you tell me it is a certification problem or what?
thank you.

I don't think Siri support for auto Bluetooth is official yet. It sort works in mine, a Fiat 500, but I have to use the home button on my iPhone to enable Siri, the voice command button on my steering wheel doesn't do it. I would say keep checking the Siri/iPhone page on apple.com for info on when auto kits will be supported.

Recordstore on real phone. urgent.
