Hello Jetboss,

As you are not very precise in what you want to do, you should check the development section of the forum by yourself.

Here are some usefull links:
You need to write the good code for this phone, so read:
http://motorolafans.com/forums/devel...-qte-apps.html

Then you'll have to compile it with the good tools, and for that, read : EZX Crosstool and SDK for Motorola EZX phones

A good starting point is the hello world program, to try the notification, buttons etc...
Then you could perhaps code some algorithms, like a "find the circonference of the circle" with a program asking for the diameter.
Then a simple calculator can be a good exercise.

Then you should be able to calculate Pi like no one ever did !

good luck!

BTW I'm beginner to C/QT programming, and I'd like to code (or port some existing codes) an simple calculator, so you can reach me at this thread:
Please port Free42 or another RPN

ps: note that you'll have to learn C, perhaps C++, and after ask here for some phone/ezx particular issues, because I don't think the goal of this forum is to help peoples in all ways...but you will be welcome if you pint some issues,bug or so, around motorola things, SDK......also , it has been a long road to make application working into these phones and to stop boring some hacker that did reverse engineering to build
the unofficials SDK...Without any help or support from motorola! Check this thread for the history:
Building E680i's native applications is simple, however

For UI part, you will also have to learn QT, the graphics library that your program have to use (include) for that perhaps you would like to check trolltech website for the tutorial, cause this is the company that make these libraries.

Please note also that there are some other ways to compile ( especially with a linux station with linux toolchains-> compiling tools) wich you could find easier.

Good luck!

In a second reading, I think I wrote one or two wrong things.
First, QT/Embedded is used on the phone, but it seems that we have to speak to the EZX libraries, if not the code will not work. ( or differently??).
Trolltech / Qt is now part of nokia.
trolltech is a company that work on QT, a powerfull graphical library ( the buttons, progress bar...and the function associated -to be quick-).
for motorola Ezx platform, they released "QT/Embedded", they are also creator of Qtopia, a famous PDA/phone "user interface".
Trolltech / Qt is now part of nokia.
It seems that Qt/embedded derived from Qtopia (perhaps ver. 1,5 or 2 ???).

I'm also not sure how the source code of Qt/embedded is published, but with what's happened these times, I would say this company has his right place in the blackbox hall of shame!! Pouah!
