Try

Try in a Java emulator (need Java - java.sun.com).

Install

Use your J2ME phone's web browser to connect to here: DictionaryForMIDs_EpoHeb_Lernu.jad.

Or download DictionaryForMIDs_EpoHeb_Lernu.jad and DictionaryForMIDs_EpoHeb_Lernu.jar to your computer and transfer the program by USB cable to your phone.

Android phoned: Install DictionaryForMIDs for the Android Market (search for 'Esperanto').
Then download DictionaryForMIDs_EpoHeb_Lernu.jar to your phone and open with DictionaryForMIDs (choose 'Vortaro' and 'De dosiero').
Or simply use DictionaryForMIDs to download the dictionaries from the distribution site (http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/dict.html).

Fonts

If you do not have necessary fonts on your phone, then you may use the bitmap fonts supplied with the dictionary package.  Go to the Menu and select Settings -> Use Bitmap Font

The bitmap fonts were generated by the "BitmapFontGenerator" available from DictionaryforMIDs. The bitmap fonts were taken from the "Arial Unicode MS" font. The "Font Properties Extension" tool available from Microsoft shows this font has "editable embedding allowed":
"Fonts may be embedded in documents, but must only be installed temporarily on the remote system"

Request for Help

This release of the dictionary does not contain a Hebrew IME (Input Method Editor).  An IME allows you to type in Hebrew.  Work is underway to add custom IMEs to DictionaryforMIDs.  So for this release, unless you add a 3rd party Hebrew IME program, you will only be able to search from Esperanto to Hebrew.  You will not be able to search from Hebrew to Esperanto.

We could use some help with this IME.  If you have a phone that can input Hebrew, or you have a program that adds Hebrew support to your phone, then we'd be grateful if you could give us the key mappings for the Hebrew letters.  Please supply the basic Hebrew mapping (think of phones before predictive text was available).

Here is an example from English:
