Use JAVA applets with a custom proxy server on Nokia Series40 v2 and v3 phones for free surfing
INTRODUCTION:
In its recent versions of the Series40 OS (v2 & v3), Nokia has removed the ability to specify a proxy server associated with an access point. Therefore, those with WAP network plans (such as airtel,idea,vodafone users) are unable to use JAVA programs that require internet access (such as Opera Mini, Google Maps, …).However, Nokia does allow users to create a provisioning document on their computer. This document, created in wbxml, specifies an access point along with a proxy. The S40 phone recognizes the configuration settings in the document and allows the JAVA midlet to use those instead, thereby allowing the midlet to access the proxy.The files included here provide some sample xml documents, and the associated provisioning (.prov) files.
QUICK START:
1: Transfer the “NokiaJAVAProxy.prov” file to your phone using Bluetooth. On a Mac this means sending the file via “Send File…” (and NOT with “Browse Device…”). On Windows use a program such as BlueSoleil (http://www.bluesoleil.com) to transfer the file using object push (and NOT with file transfer).
2: The phone will recognize the configuration settings, and will prompt you to save them. Don’t worry if it says “no supported applications”.
3: Go to Settings->Configuration->Default Config. Settings, and change the default config to [the name of the configuration we just loaded].That’s it! JAVA midlets like Opera Mini, Google Maps, MGMaps, etc… should work now.
CUSTOMIZATION:
If you need to specify different proxy settings (for other networks), you will first have to download and compile libwbxml from http://libwbxml.aymerick.com . This download includes a command line program called “xml2wbxml”.Edit the “NokiaJAVAProxy.wml” xml file to use your proxy settings. Convert that to wbxml using “xml2wbxml NokiaJAVAProxy.prov NokiaJavaProxy.wml”. Nokia provides documentation for its xml tags, which is available at
“http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/id/8d85ad81-5a9b-40fe-bf2a-d567dfd755ec/Series_40_DP_2_0_OMA_Client_Provisioning_v1_3_en.pdf.html”.
Follow the QUICK START instructions to upload and use your custom settings.
