Testing software for 3650 before install

Hy,

I'm new to 3650, so maby you could help me...
I'm trying to run software on the emulator before installing it to to phone, but something's wrong...
The software won't install... it gives just errors (not a single software worked).

😕
Do I need anything else besides the emulator from nokia ?
Plug-ins or something ?

... I used a palm emulator for testing software beforre installing it ... but for 3650 it doesn't work...

You can get the emulator from www.forum.nokia.com .The emulator is mainly used by developers for testing/debuging code,so if you are not a developer its not of any use to you.On the emulator you can test code compiled with Wins/Winc instructions(i think).Application you can install on your phone are compiled with ARMI instructions so you can't use them on the emulator unless the developer provides a Wins/Winc build of the application.I don't know of a developer/company that does.

Thanks...
And I figure that the conversion is not possible form phone code to emulator code... Right? I would need the source code, right ?
