How to: Correctly Install DAP

[Archer]

This guide is based on the original one created by zeze, i have decided to upgrade it a little bit by posting add-ons and observations from our members.

This guide is intented to work in all V3is, but some will experience problems with it (for example, R4441D users)

To egin, we have various versions of DAP. A couple of them will probably not suit your phone. The best for the V3i is 5.00.19 or 5.0.30.


DAP 5.003

DAP version 5.00.10

DAP version 5.00.15

DAP version 5.00.19

DAP version 5.00.26 (upgraded version from the KRAZR, doesnt have a "back" button)

Digital Audio Player 5.0.30 (upgraded version from the KRAZR, doesnt have a "back" button)

Digital Audio Player 05.01.05 (for the V3x, installs in the TF card)

Digital Audio Player 5.00.27 (upgraded version from the KRAZR, doesnt have a "back" button)


The program that strongly recommended to install JAVA Apps is called Motorola MIDLets Manager (MotoMidMan) the latest version can be found here:

[Download Motorola Midlets Manager v0.62.1YEAR]

To start, initiate the program & connect your phone. At this point, it should recognize it. If it gves you an error message such as "Platform not Supported" please refer to this guide. Wont take you more than 5 seconds to fix that issue

Now, lets install it. Click the INSTALL button in the lower left and select JAR File (only if u're going to install the versions i posted) then, browse for the DAP you downloaded.

If you downloaded version 5.00.19 or 5.0.30, then click install JAD File (Recommended)

After isntalling it, the list will be renewed, this time, it will include Digital Audio Player. Select it and click on the MORE button (lower right) and then select Attributes.
There, make sure that the boxes FlipInsensitive & Signed are checked. Click OK and wait for the program to make the changes.

After everythings updated, press RESTART.

Now, make sure that DAP is actually working. Open it, paly a song for one minute, and if it doesnt stop or anything, you're good to go.

If the application gives you any kind of error, Connect the phone to the PC, Open MotoMidMan and then select DAP and click on the Access button (lower left corner) and select ENABLE option. Wait for the program to make the changes & then restart the phone again.

Another method to install it, using the Memory Card Conection Feature. Use it only if the above ideas have failed:


Go to USB Settings & change the default to Memory Card

Connect phone to the PC & go to My PC.

Copy the DAP files to \mobile\kjava

After disconnecting the phone from the PC, go to Games & Apps on the phone, press the middle button, select

Switch Storage Device to Memory Card, then select Install New

This method works best when upgrading a pre-existing version of DAP

Credits go to lilbro9786, for testing in zeze's thread, JrB55 for editing the motomidman.ini file to eliminate connection errors with the v3i, zeze for making the original guide.

If anyone finds a complete version of the DAP versions posted (or even others that i couldnt find) please PM me.

I'll be adding New versions of DAP as i notice them.

any ideas on how to get WinAmp Mobile to work on the V3i. I installed it but it can't find my MP3s, it just shows an empty folder.

[Archer]

It has worked for some people. I believe that its somehow firmware related. Try this:

Connect the phone to the PC, Open MotoMidMan and then select DAP and click on the Access button (lower left corner) and select ENABLE option. Wait for the program to make the changes & then restart the phone again.

No go now it says file corrupt....delete? so i do.

[Archer]

Hmmm, then i guess that it wont run in your phone :S

[Entropy]

Excellent guide! I accidently deleted the preinstalled DAP off my V3i (V3r cingular) and couldn't get it working again. DAP version 5.00.19is working perfect after I followed your directions. Thanks Archer!!!!

[Archer]

Sure, anytime! My next goal is to have Winamp in da phone....

[Blaz]

i have installed version 5.00.30 on my v3i and it works fine thanks for the tips.
it was tricky because my pc applications kept freezing but i got it to work

[rabbit92603]

Is there a way to do this on a mac?

[Archer]

No sir, i dont think that its the same, because MotoMidMan wont work on a Mac

Trabaja de lujo yo tenia la version 05.00.10 luego pase a la 05.00.15 y despues a la 05.00.19 y trabaja bien. all works good!!!!!:biggthumpup:
the back botton in v3i its very important, at the version 0.26, 0.30...etc dont have this option...pretty bad:thumbsdown: !!!

excuse my english.thks

[Archer]

Si,es que esas versiones son del KRAZR,que tiene un botón propio para "atrás". ME alegra qe te funcionara bien

[neptune]

i couldnt install any of these versions.. I found out every time I change any java app attribute to Signed, when I get "File corrupted" message

[Archer]

Have you tried installing from the TF?

[neptune]

i got it to work (5.0.19) after playing with motomidman and p2kcommander with a modified .pat file.. anyway, i did something that made it work, and i dunno what it was, because i tried 3 different things last time, and it worked.. oh well lol
