Calc4M
Updated 2011-06-05, now version 2.2
There are three versions, the original Calc4M that needs MIDP2.0 to run, a
simplified Calc4M.m1 that runs on any Java mobile phone and a special .cod version for BlackBerrys. If you are unsure what
to try, try the full version first and if it refuses to load, then try the simplified
version
Download Calc4M.jar or Calc4M.jad,
see also http://www.mobango.com/calc4m/?cid=1610289
If you have a BlackBerry, you may also try the .cod version at Calc4M.cod
If the above refuses to load, try the simplified Calc4Mm1.jar or
Calc4Mm1.jad
Calc4M is a calculator for mobile phones. It works on phones with CLDC 1.0 and MIPD
2.0 which means most phones from 2004 and later, such as SonyEricsson K700 and Nokia
6230 and later. It is currently tested on SonyEricsson, Nokia, Samsung and Motorola platforms.
It is configurable and contains most of the normal functions such as trigonometric
and logarithmic functions, conversions, constants, memories and binary and hexadecimal
notation. The configurations include possibilities to
- display a welcome screen or not
- display the call stack or not
- automatically return to the basic arithmetic screen or not
- use full screen mode or not
- use nice looking button texts or "safe" texts that works in any mobile
- choose from two different keyboard layouts
- select calculation font size
- select default number format (sci/eng/default)
- decide type of "long button press" notification
One important thing to note is that most buttons have two functions.
Press and hold down the key to access the "secondary" function which is denoted by the bottom right text on the buttons.
If you have any comments, suggestions, feature requests or bug reports, just
give me a note. I am also open for customizations according to specific
needs, preferably if you are willing to pay for it :). Otherwise, it is free for
normal use.
