FoxyTag for Blackberry 8700g - 8100 (Pearl)

[sitte]

Hello,

i got an "Blackberry 8700g" and i don't know if FoxyTag is working on that device. It's not listed at http://www.foxytag.com/de/mobilesgpscompatibles.html

...but an Java engine is runninng on that device also GPS, GPRS, Bluetooth and adtionally on 8100 (pearl) UMTS

What must i do to run FoxyTag on a Blackberry device?

GPS is not included in BBs...

[Telko]

What is the name of the java engine in the bbs ??

Try to run FoxyTest, and tell us the results.

Hi Telko

yes you ur right GPS is not included.

Java Engine: SunMicrosystems 4.1

Ok i run FoxiTest on my BB device and got following error:

"Uncaught exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError"

...it seems to me that the installed java engine don't work with Foxi. Maybe an update to antoher java engine would help but i can't install another because its a part of our communication equipment from my company. I guess if i change the java engine the blackberry feature (Push Mail over BB Enterprise Server and Exchange2003) would not work properly anylonger, of course just a guess.

My Handheld Software Version is Blackberry 8700g v4.1.0.286 (Plattform 2.0.0.123)

bye...

Hi,
Blackberry converts any java ".jar" file to ".cod" file if you download the java software with your web browser.
I hope u didn't try to install FoxyTag or FoxyTest via bluetooth. In that case you must convert ".jar" to ".cod" file before and it is not so easy acording to Blackberry forums.
FoxyTag should run if it is converted to ".cod" file.
I've just had a look at the SunMicrosystems 4.1 java API. It seems that the manner to use the bluetooth is not compatible with our software.
If you manage to run FoxyTest please send us report when you try internet connection from FoxyTest.
It will help us to know if it is possible to make FoxyTag running on Blackberry.

...it wont work sorry.

if you got any other ideas so please grab a BB anywhere if possible and test it by youreself. i think you can do this job better than me with more knowledge.

i tryed severeal things with java but recentley i got the same goal like Munja:

Johi compiled a version for BlackBerry, see http://foxytag.blog.de/

Hello,

I have a BB 7100v with OS 4.1.0.377.

I tried the version compiled by Johi, but I receive the error:

"Uncaught exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError"

immediately when I try to launch the application, as Sitte reports too.

What can I do?

Bye...
