jStarDict:j2me dictionary applications which will support all stardict dictionaries
I created a j2me dict app for my A1200. It can use any stardict dictationary files. I had upload it to motorola fans and you can also find it here. It works for my a1200 and others have report is works for a780 too.

Here is the install step:
1. install this jStarDictM.jar into tf card. Please always find the newer version. Currently I had realsed v0.2.1.
2.edit .system\java\DownloadApps\
(You can find what's MIDletxxxx is in .system\java\CardRegistry). You
need change the Domain to Trusted Third Party to let this tool have
file access permission.
3. create a folder called dict in your sd card root. Get the dicts you want to use from stardict.sourceforge.n...naries.php
and unzip to the folder. Each dict should have a folder with its
default name and in that folder there will be three files. An .ifo , an
.idx and a .dict.dz file.
4. unzip the .dict.dz file int the same folder suing 7zip and make the
name correct if need. For examle if your dz file named abc.dict.dz then
the unzipped file should be abc.dict.
(This step can be ignore for very small dict, but for big dict there
are performance issue on unzipping the file at running. I will try to
find some to resolve it in later version.)
5. In application list ,long click the jStarDict icon, select
manage/permisions, you should change the user data read and user data
write to Ask once per application.
6. start jStarDict app, unswer yes to permissions questions.
The app will discover dict folder sd root and will load first 2 dicts
by default, you can choose to load or not load some dicts using Manage
Dict menu item. This app support bookmarks. And like some other dict
app, this app will search for the word you are inputing, and there is a
option to set how long to delay to start search after you input some
char. The default value is -1 that mean no delay, it will start search
when any change you make to the search text.
This should work for many j2me enabled mobile phone, but I only have a
a1200 and I have changed to the modified fireware so I don't know
whether this will work on a offical a1200 fireware. If you some try it
on other phone, please give the result here.
I also put the signed jad file in the attachment. It's said you can
install the app using the jad file to get the read and write
permisions. But it failed on my a1200.

i used jstardict (v0.2.1) on my w700 (sony ericssons). i followed all the steps (except removing java read/write permission, 'cause my phone has different firm - and i still not figure how), miraculously, it works perfectly and fast. i can choose only 2 dictionaries to use at one time. however, i can choose others if i want. the problem is, jstardict doesn't show me the result of the search, it just shows me the same word i enter (ex: look up for "table", jstardict shows the exact word "table" again, no explaination or equivalent words in the target language)....helps, please...thanks so much. In the nutshell, your jstardict rocks..
