[chameleon3]

Hi im new in developing applications for mobile phones. Can anyone help me how to get started in developing own applications.
What programming languages can i use?
What compiler is needed?
Can i compile code on my A780?
Is it possible to build application with the bluetooth interface?

Thanks for your answers.

Hi and welcome in the developer world

you can develop softwarefor a780 in java or c.

for c this works for me:
- a crosscompiler : http://lsb.blogdns.net/ezx-crosstool
- reverse engineered header files : http://lsb.blogdns.net/ezx-devkit

for java you need the motorola SDK, which is freely available from their website.
But I have never done any java development.

There are other SDK / crosscompilers around that work also. There is even a rumor about a leaked SDK / crosscompiler from motorola. As far as I know there is no compiler available that runs directly on the A780.

For bluetooth, motorola uses its own stack, and little is known about how to access it. Someone has compiled the bluez stack for the a780, which makes it in theory possible to compile programs for the a780 which use bluetooth. However, this means that the bundled software stack needs to be deactivated.

has anyone compiled the cpython interpreter?
