phone to servlet communication via bluetooth using j2me

Question

I made the simple j2me login application, code is below.

It's working perfectly on emulator, now I want to run it on my mobile application via bluetooth connection. In other word, phone (j2me application)-pc (servlet) communication via bluetooth. Need help.

update device supports JSR 82 Java APIs for Bluetooth 1.1.

}

and this is my servlet code

Answer 1

I think this is where the actual problem is, Just change your String url = "http://localhost:8084/j2metest/getText"; to its computer's ip like 192.168.1.1 kind of and then try again.

The reason behind this is when you run Java ME code on Emulator, it detects localhost. But Now when you deployed that application on mobile and connects it with Bluetooth, you are accessing Computer from the outside, so in this case localhost will not work. you need to pass its IP.
