JAD to ALX

• Custom in the ALX files properties

  Hello

  in fact I deploy my application OTA. I added some special parameters in the JAD file to configure the application before it is downloaded to the device. Using the CodeModuleGroupManager I can then read properties and use them in my application.

  Now, I have received the request to deploy my application using Blackberry Enterprise Manager. The administrator has informed me, he uses an ALX file to install the application on the device. Now, my problem is that the additional settings to configure my application are no longer there (it is not possible to install the jad with alx files). Is it possible to add custom in the alx file properties? Or y at - it another way to do with BES?

  Thanks for your help,

  Lars

  Take a look at BES Admin Manual. On the side of the unit, you can query the TI custom policy settings using the ITPolicy class.

• Need an application of type demon who also has a user interface, but don't know how

  Hello

  I'm sure that some of you have used the Facebook app, and that's what I'm trying to accomplish. I need an application that can listen to information to push but I must not be in the application switcher function, if possible. They must also be able to open the interface and use the application.

  I'm new on this and just get in the tank, but I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to do it. If necessary I can use the method of foreground/background, but rather it would work more like the facebook app. =)

  Thanks for any help!

  You can distribute multiple cod with a single jad or alx, just edit the files together.

  for the application of the indicators see
  http://www.BlackBerry.com/developers/docs/4.7.0api/NET/RIM/BlackBerry/API/MessageList/ApplicationInd...

  you need a daemon application that provides a list of messages to a shared in the store of runtime service.
  If you run your application user interface, you can read and manipulate this service.

• BlackBerry Smartphones downloaded themes

  I searched the category themes for the Curve 8300, but I did not seem to have a bit of luck. So instead of cause me worsening more I wanted to just post here to helpp me pleaseee!

  I have the Curve 8330, OS 4.5. my friend send me the names of different files all 14 themes (.cod, .jad, .ali .alx files) and I swear to God, I tried to connect my bb to the computer to download with the Office Manager of emailing to my bb to download something OTA (after Google search).

  I'm pretty good with computer software, I have no idea why it does not work on.

  Help is WELLL and appreciated.

  the Alx file and cod are installed through DTM(desktop manager) by the application loader

  .jad files are those that you want to send to yourself and click on the link with will download and install from the web (otherwise known as OTA)

  Once you install whether you go to options-themes, to change

  You must be careful on what themes you install if you need to install themes for 83xx series. But you need to install themes for 4.5 specifically. If you install 4.2 is not visible, but also it may crash your machine.

  good place to download OTA (.jad) is www.pimpmyberry.com

• Installation of ALX, CSO, JAD, JAR, COD and USB...

  Hello

  When I have my project using Netbeans builin and JDE 4.7 compiler built a lot of file.

  I've got:

  .alx files

  . COD

  . CSO

  . Debug

  .jar

  .jad

  What file I have to install the KEY file by using the USB cable?
  What are the meaning of ALX, CSO, JAR and JAD, if I need to install the COD file?

  You need signed cod and alx file to install the application of desktop (via BB Desktop Manager).

  You need signed file cod and jad file to install the application via OTA.

  The CSO and CSL files are required to sign the application, after signing, you do not have them.

  Also, there is no jar and debug for the installation files.

  Preparing the package of two sets of files, one for the office (COD + alx), one for OTA (COD + jad).

  If the cod in the OTA package file is larger that 64 k rename zip file, extract all the files and delete the zip file.

  Now, install all the cod files (brother) and jad file on the server and make sure that you set the MIME types properly.

  JAD: Text/VND. Sun.J2ME.app - Descriptor
  COD: application/vnd. RIM. COD

• Compile the version not updated in .jad

  When I manually update the version number on the properties of the project and then compile it, I must then manually regenerate the .alx files and manually change the .jad file because the version in the .jad file has not been updated by the compiler.

  It's crazy, it should be updated by the JDE without intervention.  What are others doing?  I have to love manually generate this thing myself?

  Is more NetBeans or Eclipse like MS VS?  Maybe I need to look really try to install one of those with the JDE being so primitive.

  Hi Berrysoft,

  You can consider the passage using NetBeans or Eclipse. Both offer a pretty familiar if you are familiar with MS VS.

  Personally, we use a build configuration that consists of Eclipse + bb-ant-tools and have found this to be a very productive Setup. In addition, Jonathan Fisher has put together a good guide on how you can get a setup of the environment productive build using NetBeans. If you use bb-ant-tools you can write then also some additional Ant targets that will copy a file pre-written .alx files on in the output when the build directory. If you want to get fancy, you can even enjoy filtering Ant to automatically fill in details such as the name of the app, version number etc. If you have a generic build script that can be moved quickly to a project without additional configuration.

  Or, perhaps, you can even try using the plugin 'Eclipse'. At this point, I personally recommend steering clear of it until some features more are put in, but it's worth a shot.

  See you soon,.

• jad issue related to dependencies...

  Hello

  A very specific question...

  I have two projects, a cldc app and a library application, with dependencies on the other one. If I install it in my device using alx, there is no problem providing that I have app.cod, library.cod and app.alx in the same folder.

  I'm not sure, and I can't test it now, what if he's going to have the same behavior using .jad file

  As I see it inside the jad, there is not any reference to library.cod, as it happened inside the app.alx. There is only a dependency of the library module module. This makes me think that I need to have my library installed in the device before trying to install my application.

  Am I wrong? Is it possible to install the library and the app with a single jad?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  You have an application named SampleApplication , and two modules in library named MyLibrary1 and MyLibrary2.

  You want to do OTA SampleApplication with SampleApplication.jad file that automatically installs the two libraries with your application.

  Follow these steps:

  1 build applications. You will get 3 cod and 3 files jad

  2. open the MyLibrary1.jad file in Notepad and copy the values of RIM-COD-URL:, RIM-COD-SHA1:and RIM-COD-Dimensions: the file and save it in a text saying temp.txt file.

  3. open the MyLibrary2.jad file in Notepad and copy RIM-COD-URL values:, RIM-COD-SHA1:and RIM-COD-size: the file and save it in temp.txt.

  4 rename the MyLibrary2.jad file temp.txt as values RIM-COD-URL-1:,RIM-COD-SHA1-1:and RIM-COD-size-1:

  5 open SampleApplication.jad file in Notepad and rename values such as RIM-COD-URL-2:, RIM-COD-SHA1-2:and RIM-COD-size-2:

  6 copy temp.txt to SampleApplication.jad values

  7. remove MIDlet-Jar-Size: and MIDlet-Jar-URL: of SampleApplication.jad properties

  8 copy all SampleApplication.jad file and .cod files in a single directory

  9. your SampleApplication.jad file is now ready for OTA with your library modules

  Example of a .jad file

  Manifest-Version: 1.0
  MIDlet-Version: 01.00.00
  MicroEdition-Configuration: CLDC-1.1
  RIM-COD-Module-Dependencies: net_rim_cldc,MyLibrary1,MyLibrary2

  You can test it with the device Simulator.

  (1) setting up a Tomcat server, copy these files into folder webapps of tomcat

  (2) start MDS Simulator

  (3) boot device Simulator and access the SampleApplication.jad file of your application.

  (4) download

• Cannot add properties of jad for the compatibility mode for the COD file metadata.

  Hi all.

  I need to disable the application that are installed compatibility mode using the ALX file. I read in an another messages it is possible to add custom file JAD directly properties in the COD file. I tried to create test projects using Blackberry JDE, Blackberry Eclipse plugin generation tools and use Eclipse with ant. Then I tried to add a JAD file for projects and by adding the following properties:

  RIM-TouchCompatibilityMode: false
  RIM-TouchCompatibilityMode-UserChangeable: true
  

  Also I tried specifying the properties of this:

  RIM-TouchCompatibilityMode: 0
  RIM-TouchCompatibilityMode-UserChangeable: 1
  

  But it seems that it does not help to automatically avoid compatibility mode for applications that are built using JDE4.2.1 or earlier. I ran the test on Storm 9530 camera with 5.0.0.32 8 preinstalled JDE. I also wipe my phone several times to avoid the capabilities that the compatibility mode settings is saved.

  In addition, before installing the application I also checked this jar file compatibility mode properties which was built contained in this manifesto.

  Please, anobody can advise which go bad. Or it seems that there is no possibility to implement the solution that are built with the JDE at first then 4.7 and are installed using the ALX file.

  I never could get this job.

  Sorry, don't know what the deal is.

• How to specify copyright information, when you use a .jad file.

  When deploying applications by using a files .alx file, we have the ability to specify the tags to provide copyright information.  Is there an equivalent property that can be added to a .jad file to use in the deployment of the OTA?  Or is the best way to add copyright information to the MIDlet-Description?

  Thank you in advance!

  It is not a specific entry of JAD file for copyright information.  I recommend to add to the item description as you suggested.

• Eclipse plug-ins: generate ALX file has stopped working

  For some reason, the option generate ALX file is no longer works for me.

  He used to work, but for some reason any stopped.

  Everything is generated (.jar, .jad, .cod, .rapc)

  When you choose "Generate ALX file" (after a right click on the project), simply, nothing happens. The plugin does not create the file.

  I am at a loss! Why it stop working, and how do I make it work again?

  OK solved.

  The problem was that the readonly (because of our source control) .classpath file.

  Now that I've removed the read-only attribute, generate ALX file works again.

• Deployment of Java Application on air not to read the ALX file?

  Hello

  I made a simple application in Java, using Blackberry JDE, I want to deploy OTA.

  I generated an ALX file using "Generate ALX file" in the menu "Project" Blackberry JDE after previously setting values in the properties for the project.  If I open my ALX file in Notepad, I can see my values in there.

  However, when I download my app (using a URL Pointant towards my.) JAD file on a web server), nothing of the ALX file appears in the download screen (version = 0,= seller,...).

  I found a post on this same forum indicating that I need to set values in the properties of the workspace instead.  I did... and it's working now, but I have access to change only the version number and the seller.  I don't have access to the application for title or the description of the application.

  On my web server, I copied the. JAD. JAR. COD and. ALX files.

  I would like to be able to specify a description of the application on the download screen, and see also the title of the app on the screen Options/Advanced Options/Applications.  At present, it seems that the file name of the. JAD file is used instead of the 'title' in the. ALX file.  When I go on my icon of the application, the title of the correct application appears.

  Am I missing something?

  Is there a way to do this?

  Thank you!

  BTW, I tested it with a real device (Storm 9530, OS 4.7)

  Only the JAD and cod use OTA Download.  The pot and the alx are not required.

  I would consider the information in the developer's Guide for deploying applications.  You will find a less readable for 4.7 online version here:

• check error when start the game after downloading the jad/jar by OTA on BB 8300

  Should I wear a for BB 8800 version J2ME Java game. So far the alx/jad/cod format works fine on BB devices, such as 8800, 8300, 8310. Now I have to commit a jad/jar format. I make the version using proguard 3.8 and WTK22 preverify. On BB 8800, the jad/jar can be downloaded to the device, when it is running the game, there is an error msg 'Error at startup xxxx xxxx for Module a verification error at offset xxxx xxxx', the version is OK on BB 8310, but failed on BB 8800 and 8300.It is so strange. I'm trying to do the version using the preverify CAP and failed once again, use 3.3.2 proguard / 3.7 failed too. It seems that it is a consistent problem.

  I check the article 'Support - MIDlet has error checking to offset' and have no harvest.

  How to fix the bug?

  Thanks for your help.

  Use rapc.exe to jar with proguard not preverify, I corrected the bug. There maybe some problems during transfer cod jar in the device.

• Install the application by JAD

  Hi all

  I developed an application of BB. I installed the application of files .alx file IE using Desktop Manager.

  now, I tried to install the same application using the jad file, so I pasted the file .cod .jad, .jar in the SD card, then I install jad, a dialog box shows like "Download failed" it when I click Details-> 907 invalid COD unable to import ZIP file.

  in this application, I used the persistence storage. (I'm testing on emulator)

  on the other application that I haven't used persistence store is do install by JAD.

  How can I solve the problem / where I have error

  I could be wrong but it seems to me that your application is great, isn't it? In this case the .cod produced by CAP file is a zip of the real .cod files. In this case OTA would be better unzip them and change jad to make reference to all the. Hope this helps

  Over The Air (OTA) download/install applications require a JAD file.
