NetBeans will run whatever Java ME emulator/platform you register with it, so the practical route is to install the phone-maker’s Java emulator/SDK (the package that contains that model’s skin and any vendor JSRs) and register it inside NetBeans. was on the right track — the steps below turn that idea into a reproducible workflow and cover the common pitfalls for older models like the Nokia 5300 or Samsung D900.

  1. Obtain and install the vendor Java ME SDK or emulator that targets the handset family (manufacturer developer sites or archives often supply these).
  2. Register the SDK in NetBeans (use the Java ME / Java Platforms area or the Add Platform wizard and point it at the SDK install folder). NetBeans should pick up the emulator and any skins.
  3. In the project properties pick the newly registered platform/device (or use the Run options to choose a specific skin) and run the MIDlet. If registration fails, build your .jar/.jad and load it directly into the vendor emulator.

Common issues and notes:

  • NetBeans needs the Mobility support/plugin; if you don’t see Java ME options, install that component first.
  • Many older vendor emulators are platform-specific or 32-bit native apps and may not run on modern OSes without compatibility layers or a VM.
  • Vendor SDKs sometimes include proprietary JSRs or device-only behaviors; enable those libraries in the project and prefer real-device testing when exact behavior matters.
  • If an official SDK for a particular old model is unavailable, use the closest series/skin or test on the device itself.

This expands on ’s suggestion with concrete steps and troubleshooting so the emulator for a specific manufacturer/device behaves as closely as possible to the real phone.
