I want my app to be able to receive notification from the server while it is running in the background. I don't like pooling, that will drain user's battery since I need almost realtime response, does Series 40 support that?

I like pooling, especially with a cocktail in my hand ;) – jlordo Mar 25 '13 at 14:35

I do, too, when it's really really hot :) – imgen Mar 25 '13 at 14:52

If it was me, I'd probably use SMS. You can find webhotel providers that offers SMS service. – mr_lou Mar 25 '13 at 20:20

the problem now is that #1, can SMS be responsive enough on an international basis, #2, can I intercept SMS on series 40 – imgen Mar 26 '13 at 05:54

To answer the question if you can intercept SMS on an S40 phone then I'd say yes. You can use push registry. See this link for the j2me sample. This is only half of the problem as this is the receiving end. You need to create a server that "pushes" a message to a certain mobile number on it's push registry port. You can use an SMS gateway maybe to push messages?
