Get The Reader | Platform | Support | AndroidThe application is available on the Android Market. It is called Barcode Scanner, and can be found under the Applications/Shopping category. Advanced users can download the latest version directly. | - HTC G1, Magic (aka myTouch), Hero
- Motorola Droid
- Samsung Galaxy
- Other Android devices
| iPhoneThe application is called Barcodes. Visit the iTunes App Store. | | BlackberryThe Blackberry client is not actively tested or maintained. If it does not work, we suggest you try another reader. | - RIM Blackberry devices with a built-in camera, such as the Curve series
| J2METhe J2ME client is currently not actively supported. We will accept bug fixes and suggested changes but do not have the capability or desire to investigate or work around phone-specific problems. If it does not work on your phone, we suggest you try another reader. Navigate to this address in your phone's browser: http://zxing.org/w/ (The application URL, directly, is: http://zxing.org/w/BarcodeReader.jad) Alternatively, if the application fails on your phone or it does not support JSR-234, you can try the basic version. | We support a number of J2ME phones, with the following requirements: - A camera (obviously)
- Auto-focus capability, and preferably macro mode or optical zoom
- Support for Java applications (developers: MIDP 2.0 and CLDC 1.1)
- Support for basic multimedia in Java (developers: MMAPI / JSR-135)
- (Optional but pretty important) Support for advanced multimedia functionality (developers: AMMS / JSR-234)
- (Optional, but needed to resolve URLs) Internet access from the phone
Supported PhonesThis list is still under construction, as we have not had an opportunity to test on many devices. We believe it will work on devices like these below (and those in the same "family"): - Sony Ericsson K550, K610, K630, K790, K800, K810, K850, T650i, V640, W580, W610, W660, W710, W830, W850, W880, W910, Z610, Z750
- Nokia 6500, 7500, 7900, 6260, 6110
Please let us know what your experience is. Partially Supported PhonesHere are a few that should work but in a limited fashion, since they don't have focus controls available: - Sony Ericsson K510, K750, W810
- Nokia 6131, N73, N80, N91, 6300, E51, E65, E70, N95 (installs, but no focus control?)
- Samsung U600
- Amoi WP-S1
- Motorola E1000
Unsupported Phones- Windows Mobile devices
- Anything without a camera or Java
- Devices on Sprint network? These appear to need signed applications, but we need more testing
- Sony Ericsson M600i, Z520a (?)
- Nokia 3230, 6620, 6630, 5300 (?), N70, N80
- Samsung A707, A920
- Palm Centro
| I get some kind of error! It doesn't run at all!See the list of requirements above -- this typically means your phone does not have all the required API support. While the application should be written correctly, and attempts to avoid known bugs in certain platforms, particularly Nokia devices, it is still known to not work on several devices. In these cases we are unable to work around a problem but welcome patches that may provide solutions. For J2ME phones, you can try the "basic" version above. We can recommend other readers that have put lots of effort into running on a wide range of phones You may have better luck with an application written natively for the platform rather than for J2ME. In particular, on Nokias, native reader applications seem to work far better than those that use their (sometimes buggy) J2ME implementations. Visit Semapedia.org and see the "Find and install a 2D barcode reader" section to find other software for your phone. Also see our InterestingLinks wiki.

Hmm... It doesn't work on my SE W800...
It works on Nokia 6120 classic (6.01 firmware)
hi, i am new to programming can any one guide me how to create the jar files using build.xml
Sure, you need Ant installed on your computer. Then just run 'ant' from within one of the module subdirectories like 'core'.
Follow up on our Google Group if you please.
thank you.. I was able to generate core.jar, now is that only enough for generating data matrix, I tried the sample code to decode data matrix but thats not working, my question can we generate Data Matrix using ZXing, if so could you please post some sample codes. Thanks in advance.
As I said please do not follow up here -- post on the Google Group for this project (http://groups.google.com/group/zxing).
There is no Data Matrix generator in the project. We would have to see the code you are trying to decode to determine why it has not decoded.
Hey guys!!!! So I just used Yatca to update my twitter status and notice the "Photo" option... and guess what. Somehow they are able to control the camera. It doesn't launch the camera application, it actually had it within the Yatca application. So would this mean it's possible to do so with zxing??? Unfortunately I'm not a blackberry programmer otherwise I'd test it myself.... but it would appear that this could be something?
refuses to install on my Nokia N78
says "Compulsory attributes missing"
Today at least, the java version links are going out to a dead server.
For those, who aren't fond of paying GPRS connection fee, the actual app download links are:
http://zxing.org/w/BarcodeReader.jar http://zxing.org/w/basic/BarcodeReader.jar
On LG Renoir (KC910) the front (lowres videoconferencing) camera is used, and the image is mirrored. The barcode is therefore not recognized. Also, because the front camera is used, you have to point the screen towards the code and it's diffucult to point - you can't see to much.
Works on Sony Ericcson K530i. Doesn't work on Motorola L6 i-mode and Motorola V360
About Yatca - they require Blackberry OS 4.6+, as they use advanced BB API to manipulate device camera.
Don't expect it to work on legacy devices like BB 81xx, 83xx and 88xx.
A side note - ZXing works fine on many camera-enabled BB devices (I tested it on 9500, 9000, 8900, 8310, 8220).
It is highly recommended to remove all Keystroke Injection related code, as it has no real value and some carriers (like TELUS in Canada) always deny app access to this specific API.
I tried it on my BB bold (9000) OS v4.6.0.162 and I get the following error message:
Error starting BarcodeReader?: Symbol 'CommandListener?.SELECT_COMMAND' not found.
Any suggestions? I am on Rogers in Canada and I tried to install both the Barcode Reader and alternate.
I am as well not a programmer.
Thank you
The link below does not work !
http://zxing.org/w/BarcodeScanner.apk
Working on Samsung j150 ? midp 2.0 support
it works on Nokia 5310 XpressMusic?
it works on SE Z780
No luck on the SE k750i, the advanced version gives and error, and the basic one stops on the splash-screen.
Any word on the Palm Pre?
No plans to develop for the Palm / WebOS at all. I don't know much about it but am under the impression one can't develop this kind of app for it.
why not have for symbian version?
We do not have Symbian expertise, nor know people who do, nor believe in Symbian as a platform enough to bother porting the whole code base to C.
The basic version worked on Sony Ericsson K800i. Full version claimed I have not enough memory to run the application. Maybe because I was using basic version, the auto-focus did not work on SE K800i.
I also missed a feature to just copy the URL instead of opening the address into built in browser. I prefer to use Opera Mini.
Correction - I tried the full version again on SE K800i, and this time it worked all right :) Also auto-focus seem to work.
. It doesn't work on my LG KP265D, problem with javax.microedition.media.control.VideoControl?.getSnapshot when install " this permission is not available in this device" Any idea?
Hi, Been looking at Qr iphone codes myself - i have a orbit 2 with windows xp on it the code gen only work if you keep msg txt links short "if" theres no boxes in code it will not work ... good site i found will send reader to phone by sms .... google "bee tag" reader .... a lov it <3
I just got the zebra compiled und running on a Sony-Ericsson C702 using "Java ME platform SDK 3.0" on SM-Vista.
Some quick test on 1/2-D bar codes succeded.
Anyhow some modifications to the javame build file were nessesary (mostly '/\ issues and some lib renameings/additions/deletions).
In case someone is interessted in these mods and/or in the jar/jad files just let me now.
regards /a
Hi,
anyone knows deep link to directly access/download zXing reader from mobile browser ?
It's best to ask questions on the mailing list please: http://groups.google.com/group/zxing/
The Android client? market://search?q=pname%3Acom.google.zxing.client.android
The J2ME client link is above.
See the ScanningViaIntent wiki if you are trying to provide a way for users of an application that depends on Barcode Scanner to download it. It will help you automatically install it from your app.
link http://zxing.org/w/ says:
Not Found
The requested URL /w/ was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument? to handle the request.
Where is Java2ME version? Links are dead!?
Hey, would be nice if you priovide a QRCode Image with the URL :)
Does not work on Nokia 5800. Giving a Null pointer exception and application exits. :(
Let' see the Android version on http://SlideME.org since not all have access to Android Market to download. SlideME now displays 2D barcodes per application listing.
The basic version works on Samsung S5600 ( My Touch )
Hello, Windows Mobile??????
We definitely need something that work on Nokia 5800. No barcode reader seems to work. And those that do, list only products from Germany... (Oh, and the zxing website is down).
I'm very interested in zxing, but I don't have a supported phone. Are there any plans for a computer based application that can use pictures, or some kind of video stream?
Please guys don't post questions here, only comments on the wiki. Please use http://groups.google.com/group/zxing/topics?hl=en
Sure well look in the javase/ folder, there is a very rudimentary GUI-based decoder that will run on your desktop computer in Java. I tried to make a version that used a webcam via JMF but JMF never quite worked.
basic version runs on samsung tocco lite, but will generate an error regardless of clarity of QR code
its work in my BB curve 8900 but with very low performance, i test it using default sample code, is there another way to make the zxing engine work better (heuristic method maybe? ) ?
