"Thanks, Alex --
I was able to install and configure a MySQL database on my machine (key step was actually creating the database from the MySQL client, then FL took it from there!). I have further succeeded in pulling in table data into excel using…"

Jay replied to Jeff Seaman's discussion Export of forms data to Access?"I'd like to do something similar to Jeff, without necessarily having to export data into a CSV. It would be ideal if Forms data could appear automatically in an Excel spreadsheet, in real time.
Like Jeff, I'm not much of a coder, but my…"
Florence Scialom replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Hi Du,
Just to let you know that, as Jay suggests below, using a Blackberry will likely be causing you some problems, and is not recommended for testing with FrontlineSMS. In order to get started with Forms you should look to test on one of…"
Jay replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Hmm -- the only time I saw that was when I tested the permissions without a SIM card installed. It went away once I had installed a SIM. Blackberries probably add a layer of complication.
Only other possibility is whether you've added the…"
Du Nguyen replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Thanks, Jay, for the very prompt response. I don't have a permission error, just the following error:

Jay replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"In the server software and the phone, you need to eliminate all dashes. On the client phone I put in the country code and a + (the star key), so it reads +1202650XXXX in the server.
However, if you're getting a permissions error, it…"
Du Nguyen replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Hi Jay, could you tell me how you input the server's phone number on your phone? I keep getting an error when my phone tried to connect to the server to download the form. I suspect it's because of the way I input the phone…"
Jay replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Yes, I suppose so -- I attempted to debrand the phone, but a simple hard factory reset appeared to allow apps to access messaging. It was extremely helpful to have a variety of phones and data cables to test and tinker with -- they all respond…"

Jay replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Success! I was able to get permissions enabled on a T-Mobile Nokia 6133. Very exciting!"
Jay replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Thanks, Alex -- that's exactly what I was afraid of. Two questions follow, then:
1. I know unlocked handsets are out there, but what about unbranded? Do you have to flash the firmware yourself, or buy direct from the manufacturer?
2. Are…"
Alex Anderson replied to Jay's discussion FrontlineForms Client Permissions"Hi Jay,
From what I've heard, US carriers are very restrictive with JavaME application permissions, and so (as you've found) it's very difficult to get a carrier-branded phone to work with an application like…"

Hello,I have been trying to test Frontline Forms here in the US before it is deployed overseas. I have successfully configured a GSM modem to act as my server, and I have successfully installed the Forms client on my LG LX-370 that runs off of Sprint's CDMA network. The problem comes when I attempt to "Get New Forms" using the client. It always says "Permission Error -- You must give this application permission to use networking. You may need to restart the app to allow this to happen." I then…See More
