I need to develop an application on Android, Blackberry and Symbian in Java environment. For that I need to use only one common SDK for all OS. Is it possible, and how? Please tell me the software that is suitable for developing the application.

That is a big question and this is a market that is quickly changing. There are a number of technologies that are trying to provide the "write once, run anywhere" development experience for smart phones. I don't know that you will find an answer in Java, but there may be a tool or framework that can help you.

Here is a short list of some of the ones I remember:

  1. PhoneGap
  2. Appcelerator Titanium
  3. Rhomobile
  4. Sencha Touch

Also, see some older Stack Overflow posts, like:

As far as I know, you cannot develop the UI portions in Java using any of the cross-platform tools (at least for these platforms). For the non-UI portions, I think that BlackBerry is the most restrictive, since it is basically Java 1.3 (no generics). If you target this lowest common denominator, you can write the non-UI portions as a library shared among all the platform-specific products.

With only one SDK i don't think it's possible.

You can develop a Web App that all can view probably.. but i see no other way.
