Folks,

Do we have any control like, OS version and TrackBall or TrackWheel device while installing the application on device?

I want such information before my application runs.

The actual requirement is to set an application icon and it can be set depends on OS version.

Is it possible to extract such info, before we launch the application?

Thanks,
Alpesh

Some software sites have an auto-detect feature that sends you to the proper version of their app to download depending on what model Blackberry you're using to access their site. Opera Mini does this, plus some others.

Thanks for the reply
but my requirement is different.

I want OS version, during the installation of the application.
The application link is already with device and while installing I have to differentiate between the OS versions.

Is it possible?

Thanks,
Alpesh

Try the Developer subforum.

Curoius, though, why can't you check before installing?

If you don't mind, will you please elaborate more.
Before installation, how can my application differentiate between OS versions?

Thanks,

Friends,

I saw many J2ME applications, where it prompts user with some interactive and info messages during installation process.
So, there must be some API that can be called, while installation is in progress.

I want to know the API provided by BlackBerry that we can call during installation process and perform some task.

Is it doable or not in Blackberry?

Thanks,
