How do I get my Qtopia application on the Greenphone?


Answer:

The process to compile and install packages for the Greenphone is as follows:

Make sure that the Greenphone is connected and recognized by VMPlayer, and that you can telnet to 10.10.10.20. If not, follow the instructions from the "Quickstart" manual to get your device connected.

In VMPlayer, open the console and enter:

  • source /opt/Qtopia/SDK/scripts/devel-greenphone.sh
  • cd ~/projects/myapplication
  • qtopiamake
  • make clean
  • make
  • mkpackage
  • pkginstall

The last step copies the package to the phone’s Documents directory for installation.

On your Greenphone, navigate into the Documents folder, and select your package to install it.When the icon stops bouncing your application should be installed and accessible via the Application menu.

If you have problems following those steps with your own application, test your setup by following the process for the example project in ~/projects/application
