Just a basic question since im new to this.

How do I make a java application for my PC that "finds" my mobile and sends a simple text string to a mobile java me app via bluetooth?

I have netbeans mobile installed.

Thanks

Is that still the same project? The easiest answer is to buy a book about JSR-82, read it and then have a look at this…

This is book is very good especially if you are new to Java Bluetooth and Bluetooth.

However, I really wonder why you want to create a Java application for something like that on your PC. Or is this just another feature of a larger Java application? As Java looses all it platform independence as each operating system has its own Bluetooth software stack, reconsider Java for this.

For starting a call, there is (normally) no need to install a Java MIDlet on your phone. Do an inquiry (device search) and then a search for the Dial-Up networking service (0x1103) and then issue the AT-command ATD<number>;CR for eaxmple ATD911;CR. 911 is an international emergency number (please do not use it for testing). The semicolon starts a voice call. CR is a carriage return which has '\r' a short-hand in Java.

Yep, still the same project. Actually callto doesnt work for symbian s40, nokia 6300 - but thanks anyway.

Yes, this is a part of a bigger app - I just need a string with the number to be sent to the device. ARent there any ready open source solutions for this?

I noticed that there was a mobile to mobile demo installed with netbeans - but i do not know how to send info or just a string from a computer to a mobile device...

Maybe I should make this String be sent to the mobile trough a http-request instead with a me app that checks the url on a regular intervall.

Could you explain ‘callto’ in more detail? I do not have a Nokia 6300 or any other Nokia Series 40 3rd Edition Feature Pak 2 device here, however, in my Nokia Series 40 3rd Edition ATD<number>;CR seems to work. Otherwise, try the handsfree service.

Sorry, I ment 'AT-command' when I wrote 'callto'... Mixed them up.

How do I make an app to test this AT-command ATD<number>;? Are there any already made examples somewhere perhaps?

My issue is bascily just to send a string from a desktop computer to a mobile java me app.

thanks,

What does a Nokia 6300 after ATD<number>;CR?

I understand your question, however, as I do not know your desktop computer platform, I cannot answer it. Furthermore, I cannot help, as I guess you are using Microsoft Windows. Then I do not know which software stack your Bluetooth adapter uses. Even then, I am not a Windows guy. I really recommend to read that book, understand JSR-82 and then use one of these JSR-82 bridges or even better learn how to use JNI and all the Bluetooth software stack APIs as you can avoid to use these bridges (compatibility, costs). You will learn a lot from that. I have no easy/short answer to your question.
