Games & Apps

Java is a technology developed by Sun Microsystems. Similar to the way
you would download the Java Applet using the standard Netscape or MS
Internet Explorer browsers, Java MIDIet can be downloaded using the
WAP enabled phone. Depending on the service provider, all Java based
programs such as Java games can be downloaded and run on a phone.
Once downloaded, the Java program can be viewed within the Games &
Apps menu where you can select, execute or delete. The Java program files
saved in the phone are in .JAD and .JAR formats.

Note •

The JAR file is a compressed format of the Java program and the JAD
file is a description file that includes all detailed information. From the
network, prior to download, you can view all detailed file descriptions
from the JAD file.

While being based on a standard language (J2ME), not all Java
applications are compatible with all handsets on sale insofar as specific
libraries may be used for a telephone model. The software may be
blocked or switch itself on when Java applications not specifically
developed for the phone this manual refers to are downloaded, making
it necessary to “restart” the handset. We would like to point out that
these problems are caused by incompatible applications and are not a
product fault.

Warning

Only J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) based programs will run in a
phone environment.
The J2SE (Java 2 Standard Edition) based programs will only run
in a PC environment.
