Applications: System Error when running java app

5 replies · 4,633 views · Started 10 July 2004

It is a very simple app that is designed for any java phone. The guide that I mentioned in the first post even specifically mentions the ngage as one of the phones it should work on.

I wrote a very simple MIDLet for my Nokia 3650 but while installing, I am seeing the same error - "! Applications: System Error"
any ideas what would be causing it.

I am trying to install the MIDlet from the PCSuite For Nokia3650 S\w.
Any ideas to resolve this problem ?
thanks in advance,

I copied the .jar files to it and tried to open them in FEexplorer. It says it is 'installing' then immediately after says it is 'removing' and gives me a

'! Applications: System Error'

Anyone know whats going on?

FYI this is the guide to the sorta of app Im trying to run

I found that I was getting the Error because my phone - Nokia 3650 didnt support MIDP2.0. I had downloaded the Wireless ToolKit version 2.0 that supports MIDP 2.0 and then built my Midlet using the toolkit.

However, I found that, currently, no phones in the United States support MIDP 2.0

I then downloaded WTK version 1.0.4 that supports MIDP 1.0, and built my MIDLet. and it ran smoothly .... without a glitch ...

I hope this helps someone who stumbles across a similar problem .... Also, for any first timer to writing MIDLets for your phone, this article will be the most helpful:
