I have very easy question, but I simply have any idea of the answer.
I have developed a small mobile-application using java, for my nokia. The problem is that when installed on my samsung the application simply crashed. Then I tried on my other nokia but different model, and I didn't got the normal behavior.
So my question is, does anyone have any idea how companies that develop mobiles applications/games test their software. Does they have to have all models for all mobiles phones??
Companies that target many phones in many countries usually only let you install the application on your phone if they recognise your handset User Agent in the HTTP headers of the request to download the .jad or .jar file.
There are multiple ways to test an application on many handsets for many mobile network operators.
From simply buying the phones, to establishing commercial parternships with handset manufacturers and mobile network operators, to having a Device Anywhere account.
