Dabr Widget for 360 H1


I've written a very basic JIL widget to launch dabr.  You can grab it from https://shkspr.mobi/Dabr.wgt

I've tested this to work on the Vodafone 360 H1 - but it should work with any JIL handset.

Because it isn't certified, you may need to dial *#35767# to remove the H1's security check.

The code is very simple.  The JIL SDK allows you to call specific phone application - in this case, all I've done is invoked the browser.

HTML HTML<body>
   <script type="text/javascript">
      Widget.openURL("http://m.dabr.co.uk/");
   </script>
   <div>
      Launching Dabr!
   </div>
</body>

One thing to note, if you're deploying the widgets from your website, ensure you have set the MIME type to "application/widget" - as per the W3C standards - otherwise many devices won't recognise it as a valid widget.

If you're interest in developing for this platform, there's a €1,000,000 bounty up for grabs.  There's also a Dev Camp at Mobile World Congress this year.

I work for Vodafone - this is my personal blog, I don't to speak for them.  All opinions, claims and mistakes are my own.
