GMail Java
In PocketPC, Software, T-Mobile MDA, Technology | 7 comments | permalink
So now for those who of you who don’t like using either the T-Mobile Tiggers, or Cingular Express Mail client to get your GMail emails there’s good news….GMail Java!
Using GMail Java you can check your e-mail without having to worry about receiving mail that you send or mails disappearing randomly (like how they did with the mail triggers). Take it for a test drive see how you like it…
Download GMail Java Application
Remember you’ll need the Java Manager/Midlet Manager

Do i need a jar file with the JAD already in teh zip folder. As my phne Motorola A780 wont install without the jar file.( error says package incomplete)
In your case you should go directly to http://www.gmail.com/app from your motorola handset and download the file.
When I go there on my a780 I get an “Installation Failed. Package Invalid” twice. Any hints?
Any way to get this to work with the google apps ?
Iftikhar and George,
There is a new client available directly from Google. Point your phone’s browser to:
http://gmail.com/app and enjoy!
I just tried the new version on my a780. I still get “Installation Failed. Package Invalid” twice.
Now that Gmail has IMAP support, you can simply use the built-in Messenger client. I created a 10-step tutorial (with screen shots) here:

I hope that helps some of you ditch the Java interface.
