Blackberry application works in simulator but not device
- by Kai
I read some of the similar posts on this site that deal with what seems to be the same issue and the responses didn't really seem to clarify things for me.
My application works fine in the simulator. I believe I'm on Bold 9000 with OS 4.6. The app is signed.
My app makes an HTTP call via 3G to fetch an XML result. type is application/xhtml+xml.
In the device, it gives no error. it makes no visual sign of error. I tell the try catch to print the results to the screen and I get nothing.
HttpConnection was taken right out of the demos and works fine in sim.
Since it gives no error, I begin to reflect back on things I recall reading back when the project began. deviceside=true? Something like that?
My request is simply HttpConnection connection = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);
where url is just a standard url, no get vars.
Based on the amount of time I see the connection arrows in the corner of the screen, I assume the app is launching the initial communication to my server, then either getting a bad result, or it gets results and the persistent store is not functioning as expected.
I have no idea where to begin with this. Posting code would be ridiculous since it would be basically my whole app.
I guess my question is if anyone knows of any major differences with device versus simulator that could cause something like http connection or persistent store to fail?
A build setting? An OS restriction? Any standard procedure I may have just not known about that everyone should do before beginning device testing?
Thanks
