J2ME Applications

In order to reach mass market and large handset user base and huge revenue channel, one must create a J2ME version of the mobile application. Java handset models are common in low and medium cost segments. Since these mobile devices vary in features and functionality, depending on the type of application being developed, optional j2me packages(JSRs) if they are used and if the handset does not support them, either phone handset model is not supported or functionality is custom developed and implemented for the phone handset.

Because of low cost of these handsets and limited features, efficient design and coding are paramount in J2ME application development. In addition, in very old j2me handsets, black and white screens are very common, this will make designing user interface a challenging exercise with great emphasis on minimalism. Even color rendering and font support issues make it really interesting. Even number of code releases and code versions keep the technical and testing team on their toes and requires absolute planning in coordinating various code releases and testing of mobile application.

With all these challenges , a good partner is essential and can help you navigate the road with right advice and hand holding
