Fwd: Phone Recommendations for DHIS2 Java Mobile Client

 

Hi Ted,
I think most Nokia feature phones will work. Ben and Scott from Akros have
a lot of experience using J2ME phones in Zambia and may be able to provide
more details about exact models.

As Knut points out, there may be some issues with the J2ME client and
different server versions at the moment, which we are looking into.

Regards,
Jason

Knut,

We know Android very well, but we want to be able to test DHIS2 on feature
phones as well.

Long version: We have a website that we have developed to work in Opera
Mini on feature phones, but we need a feature phone that will allow us to
upgrade to the latest version of Opera Mini. I'm hoping we can find in one
phone a good test environment for DHIS2 and our Opera-Mini-optimized
website.
