Comment on GPS Class by justin

Matthew & Amit,

That code will not work on the old Verizon Devices with the build-in GPS. It will work with them if they use a Bluetooth GPS receiver.

The code will also work on the newer devices from Verizon (Storm 1/2, Tour).

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Justin thanks for your wonderful post. I greatly benefited from it.
Please let me know whether it will work on the Verizon devices (8130, 8330, and 8830) many posts say that the verizon devices are locked.

Comment on Sibling CODs - or How to Make Your App Install Over The Air by Hendrik

You know whats sucss? Scouring the Nets for a solution to this problem, finding NOTHING for days, then FINALLY finding ONE guy with the exact same problem….and then nobody has an answer for him.

Dave, I don’t have a solution either, but did come up with an idea: use an Ant script to copy the source (or compiled classes) of module A into the project tree of your main app, then use bb-ant-tools (http://bb-ant-tools.sourceforge.net/main) to compile and build the COD stuff from that.

It’s messy, and I haven’t tested it yet, but it should be a “middle of the road” -type work-a-round.

Just encountered this great BlackBerry site and spent all this Friday evening on most of the great tutorials. Thx a lot! What I am seeking is to implement a customized list like those app list in App World: with icon to the left and some text to the right. Could you please give some kick start suggestions like what major classes are needed for a screen like that. thx again in advance!
