    Well I got the Datacable, but the software only allows uploading/downloading of pictures.

    Still looking but I also need I guess a JBlend compiler.

    Eclipse has a J2ME plugin, maybe that will work -> http://www.siptech.com/index?url=j2meplugin

    (Updating the post for anyone who looks for the same information).

    Try uploading it using the WAP browser.

    Where did you get the cable?

    I got the datacable from the Car Phone warehouse in Blanchardstown mall (very hard to get the cable).

    It also took a while to find but the GX10 software development kit is at this location...

    http://www.via.vodafone.com

    You have to register then you will under the technology\SDKs section to download.

    It also has information creating 3D animations (VSCL 3D) and developing your own music/ringtones/wavs (SMAF) into the phone.

    I am not saying the datacable will upload for me still, but Corinthians suggestion should work (mentioned in the docs). At least I have a PC emulator to test the stuff.

    Ok still not able to upload to the phone. Tried to get boards working without much success for now.

    Contacted the guys who make the datacable software, to see if they have an app to read the directory.

    This looks like a good spot too for anyone following my footsteps :)

    You trying via WAP? Could be the content type - some phones boark if it's not right.

    That's application/java-archive for a JAR file, btw.

    I bookmarked the JAD and the JAR file and tried to open them off boards.

    http://members.boards.ie/archeus/First3D.jar
    http://members.boards.ie/archeus/First3D.jad

    I guess the content types are incorrect on boards servers? Or did I do the wrong thing on the phone? Both come in as text.

    The content types are unlikely to be set up on the server as they're non-standard. That may be your issue.

    Yea probably, Don't suppose to know of a free website that supports it? So I can test? (Don't want to hassle the boards guys).

    Incidently got a reply from the handset manager people. They do not allow you to upload/download anything other then pictures with thier software.

    Try this on a server that supports PHP.

    [PHP]
    <?php

    /*
    WML-J2ME Download deck - By The Corinthian
    */

    if (strlen($id) == 0) {
    header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
    print "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?".">";
    ?>
    <!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml"&gt;
    <wml>
    <head><meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache"/></head>

    <card id="init" title="J2ME Downloads">
    <do type="options" name="Prev" label="Back"><prev/></do>
    <?
    $listdir = dirname($_SERVER["PATH_TRANSLATED"]);
    $handle = @opendir($listdir);
    while (($file = readdir($handle)) !== false) {
    if ($file != ".." && $file != "." && $file != "index.php") {
    $s_Size = round ((filesize($file) / 1024), 1);
    echo "\t\t<p><a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?id=".$file."\">".$file." (".$s_Size." KB)</a></p>\n";
    $b_Content = true;
    }
    }
    closedir($handle);
    if (!$b_Content) echo "<p align=\"center\"><b>Sorry, but this section is currently empty.</b></p>\n";
    ?>
    </card>

    </wml>
    <?
    } else {
    $fp = fopen ($id, "rb");
    $JarFile = fread($fp, filesize($id));
    fclose ($fp);
    header("Content-Type: application/java-archive");
    header("Content-Disposition: inline");
    header("Content-Length: ".strlen($JarFile));
    echo $JarFile;
    }
    ?>
    [/PHP]
