Fast over the air synchronization. HTTP access
required.
Full support for any character encoding.
Your accents and
special characters will always display and transfer
properly to/from ScheduleWorld.
Full timezone support. You will never be off by an hour
again.
True iCalendar (RFC 2445) support. This brings
interoperability with ScheduleWorld, Outlook and
others.
Works offline. The application works even though your cell
phone has no signal. Your offline additions, modifications
and removals can be synchronized when your phone has a
signal again.
Resolution independence. This means the application will
look correct on any device that has any resolution
(screen size).
Java Verified. The ScheduleWorld Java Micro Edition
application has successfully been through the Java Verified
process. Note: the version available for download is not
certified because it has had a couple of enhancements added
to it and it has not been recertified yet.
Popular: as of December 2004 this application was the
7th most popular handheld application on freshmeat.
Installation
Simply point your cell phone to the appropriate URL found
on this page.
Usage
Any non-encrypted events you create/modify/remove on non-J2ME
versions of ScheduleWorld will be seen on your cell phone.
Any event you create/modify/remove on the cell phone will be
visible in the non-J2ME versions of ScheduleWorld.
NOTE: Recurring events are only displayed for about the next 60
days into the future. As you use your calendar the server will
make sure your view always includes about 60 future days of
recurring event information. If you would like to see more than
60 days (or less) please email
support@ScheduleWorld.com.
Why Don't I See Events Created On The Desktop Version?
You must make sure that the event has a default rule of
"Grant Read, Deny Write" so no encryption is used.
The 64KB jar size limitation prevents the RSA/DSA/DH algorithms from
fitting on some cell phones. However, newer cell phones do not have
this 64KB limitation and encryption could be enabled. Please email
if you would like to be able to read/modify/delete encrypted events
in the J2ME version. If enough folks request this it will be
added to the todo list.
Why Are My Dates Off?
The J2ME (cell phone) version of ScheduleWorld uses the time
zone you configured in the J2SE (desktop) or HTML version of
ScheduleWorld (Tools - Settings).
If you change your time zone on the desktop or HTML
version you should refresh all of your events on the cell
phone (see next section).
How Do I Refresh All My Events?
Simply go to "Preferences" and select "Save". This will cause
all of your cached events on the phone to be deleted and
fresh copies of your events from the server will be sent
to the phone.
You would want to do this if:
You changed the time zone in the J2SE (desktop) or HTML
version of ScheduleWorld.
You change your username and password to view another
calendar. It is unlikely you would do this at this time.
How Do I Change To English, or German, or ...?
Simply go to "Preferences" and use the "Locale" option. You
have to restart after downloading a new Locale.
Some Java phones do not allow Java applications to be installed
over the air (OTA). I do not know why. Maybe some cell phone
operators do not allow this? If anyone knows why
please email
so I can update the information here.
It has been reported that one way to get around this problem
is to install ScheduleWorld another way; perhaps via BlueTooth,
infrared, USB, or an old serial connection.
Perhaps you might need to copy the
ScheduleWorld J2ME client jad and jar to the cell phone
operator's server that allows over the air installation.
Here are the phones that do not seem to
allow Java applications to be installed over the air (OTA):
Nokia 3300
G4015
Here is a list of devices that do not seem to
allow Java applications to be installed over the air (OTA):
Research In Motion (RIM) BlackBerry devices. Though, it has
not been determined if this is a limitation of the device or
the RIM Enterprise Server product. Please
if you are aware of more details or a workaround.
Why Can't I Set AM or PM Start/End Times?
Some phones are buggy and to not let you choose AM/PM. The only
way you can correctly set times on buggy phones is to change
the settings on your cell phone to use a 24-hr time format.
Buggy phones that do NOT provide AM/PM:
Nokia 3100
Nokia 3300
Nokia 7210
Please email if your phone does NOT provide AM/PM for
setting times.
Why Was My Event Update Rejected?
Event updates are under version control. If you have updated
the same event on the server using the Java desktop client (Java
Web Start/J2SE) the server version will be newer and you are not
allowed to overwrite it unless your version is newer.
If you "Synchronize" your phone (via Menu->Synchronize) first,
you will receive the latest versions of your events. Now when you
modify or remove your events your update will work because your
version is newer.
Note: ScheduleWorld synchronizes your phone every time you:
(As long as you allowed ScheduleWorld to access the network.)
Create, modify, or remove an event.
Start ScheduleWorld.
Manually select Menu->Synchronize.
Why Do I See Funny Characters?
The ScheduleWorld J2ME (cell phone) client (and
server) go to great lengths to support every possible character
encoding. It is likely you have chosen a locale
(country/language) that is not supported by your phone.
For example, if you bought an English-language phone it
will not be able to display Chinese characters.
