Running Globe's Unlimail and eBuddy's Mobile Instant Messenger on a Non Supported Phone

I use this method whenever i want to try some Java MIDP applications on my old LG KU250 mobile phone. A brief description of Unlimail is that its a push email application made by Emoze for Globe Telecom and it runs on Symbian and Java MIDP capable phones. It can access multiple email such as GMail, Yahoo! Mail and MSN among other things.

First off we will need Mozilla Firefox and 2 Firefox addon namely WML Browser to simulate WAP browsing and User Agent Switcher.  To download the Unlimail application you will need to use a user agent that is close to your phone. In my case i'm using a 3 year old LG KU250 which they say is not supported so i choose to use a Nokia 3120 user agent. Once your user agent is set you can now go to the WAP site and download the application to your computer. When finish downloading from the WAP site you can now download it to your phone whether by cable, bluetooth or via card reader and install it and hopefully it will run.


With this method you can also download eBuddy's Mobile Instant Messenger. Proceed to eBuddy's mobile webpage get.ebuddy.com choose you phone model or for a non supported phone the closes to your model. I choose LG KU380 since my KU250 is not supported. Download the eBuddy application, install it and your done.
