I've just tried installing it on my SPV M3100 but at the end it closed the MIDlet Manager and erased all other java applications I've had installed on my device

had to downgrade to version 1.1.1

Works fine on my Kaiser.

Weird, it's definitely not playing on mine!

first let me say thanks for the great site!

now on this topic, I've been following a good thread here on the pros (few) and cons (more than pros, but it is the first "upgrade" and google is usually good with getting bugs out.) of the gmail 1.5

I'm using the Jeodek Esmertec manager, seems to be a bit better than the standard midlet manager
It did run Opera Mini while the standard one wouldn't

why don't you give it a go?

(i'm also using a Vario 3)

I had that same problem. D'oH!!

Seems it doesn't like the Java. Given how good Google Maps is, I would much rather have an app than have to go to the website, even if it is a mobile site.

Sorry, Google Mail for mobile will not work on your phone. Your phone does not have the appropriate certificate to communicate with the server.

It doesn't work on my Orange SPV E650 either, same message.

works perfect on kaisar!!!smooth app!!

[sliver]

Again, works out of the box on the Kaiser (TyTn II).

Then again, so does everything. I haven't had to manually configure a thing on this phone with T-Mobile in the U.S. It just knows what all the proper settings are. A miracle really.

Does not work on my SP5 but does on my Graphite.

Could someone send a direct link to the .jad file or upload it here for those of us who cannot download it directly to our phones.

Guys, make sure you follow my articles cross-posted to the forum

As I've posted over a week ago into this very forum too, 1.5.0 is absolutely incompatible with TAO Intent manager or Esmerted Jeodek (NOT Jbed). You *must* use it with either IBM J9, Jblend (which is, otherwise, NOT recommended for its screwed-up security model) or Esmertec Jbed.

Also see the Gmail-related row in the main chart of my MIDlet Bible ( http://www.winmobiletech.com/092007MidletB...ityAndMain.html ) and have also discussed this issue on my blog with some other people (see the comments at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php...p;tb=1&pb=1 )

Yeah, the Kaiser has the Jbed MIDlet manager by default. Older phones, on the other hand, generally have TAO or, with newer, WM6 phones, Esmertec Jeodek. This is why it isn't working with many people.

Is there a JVM that actually feels nice for inputting text etc (rather than, say, popping up a new full screen box for each text field)?

Doesn't work on my HTC P3600i either (builtin MIDlet manager)

Only CrEme, but it sucks like hell. IBM J9 also allows for in-line editing of one-row text input fields but not multiline ones.

Yes, as it's TAO. Use Esmertec Jbed.

I got the earlier version of gmail working on my E650 after installing the Esmertec Jbed
JVM (rather than the Jeodek version that comes with the phone) mentioned elsewhere in this thread. I found it on the XDA developers forum.

You may need to application unlock your phone. I also needed to use Paul's Orange de-branding download from this site to get it to run properly.

After all that, it still had problems with the QWERTY keyboard!
Anybody else had problems with gmail mistaking the QWERTY keyboard for numberpad?

Have not tried V1.5 yet...

I've also directly linked it in from the chart; it's worth folloing the link from there

It'll work - see my compatibility reports.
