Hi guys...I'm new to mobile development and need your help. I'm trying to make a application that can detect the applications installed on mobile devices. Now I think there are two ways to achieve this:
1) Create a mobile application that can detect the other installed applications.
2) Create a windows/linux application that will first detect the connected phone and then detect the installed applications.
Now I think that 1st method would be easier if it is possible with j2me as .jar files are recognized by most of the mobile devices.
Or is it only possible by developing separate applications for different mobile OSes . This is something very difficult and time consuming so I thought J2me would be a better option as it targets several mobile devices at the same time( I may be wrong though.)
2nd option seems to be good but I'm not too sure.
Please help me.Tell me the right direction.
