10.5 Using MIDlet Manager
MIDlets are Java applications that can run on mobile devices. Your device
supports Java™ 2 Micro Edition, J2ME™. The MIDlet Manager allows you to
download Java applications, such as games and tools that are specifically
designed for mobile devices. Although some Java applications and games
have already been installed on your device, the Java MIDlet Manager gives
you the flexibility of installing and managing additional J2ME applications
from the Internet.
To install MIDlets from the Internet
1. Locate the MIDlet/MIDlet suite while connected to the Internet.
2. Select the MIDlet/MIDlet suite to download.
3. Confirm to start downloading.
4. Run the file(s) to install.
To install MIDlets from a PC
You can install the MIDlets/MIDlet suites on your device from a PC using
the USB sync cable or Bluetooth. MIDlets copied to your device are
automatically saved in the My Documents folder. However, you can copy
the MIDlet file(s) from a PC to any of the following temporary folders on
your device from where MIDlet Manager can install them.
• Device memory: ../My Device/My Documents/My MIDlets
• Storage card/Microdrive: ../My Device/Storage Card or Microdrive
Note If the My MIDlets folder does not exist in My Documents, you can create
one with the same folder name. However, a folder named Storage Card
automatically appears after you insert a storage card into your device.
To install a MIDlet/MIDlet suite
1. Tap Start > Programs > MIDlet Manager > Menu > Install > Local.
2. From the list, tap the MIDlet/MIDlet suite that you want to install.
3. Confirm to complete the installation.
Note To remove a MIDlet file from the temporary folder, tap and hold the file then
tap Delete from the shortcut menu.
