Did any of you get the remote download to work? I am working on a similar probelm. The basic system is supposed to work like this: The user gets a message containing a personalized "link" this link points to a personalized application that gets downloaded and installed to the phone.
The current APP works by sending an SMS that contains a url where the user can download the application specifically a JAD file, that then triggers a download and installation of the JAR on the users device. Any help would be greatly apreciated /Mikael On Feb 11, 9:11 pm, Jeff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have been working on remote deployment modules as part of my > project.
