Apps running in background.

I really hope someone on these forums can assist us!

We have written some applications that listen to an inbound data feed through a predefined port (J2ME). At the moment this application only runs when in the foreground on the device.
We are looking for a way in which this can run in the background. Does anyone have experience of this, or can offer some guidance, this would be very much appreciated.

Best Regards, 😊

Hi.

I am working on a similar problem but on C Symbian.
From my experience you won't be able to do this in Java. Try finding any sort of Java phone app that does that. For Symbian C i found some on psiloc.com

Cheers,
Lucian
