Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.1
 

I need a screenshot of the problem because your specs are the same as one of my test machines and I haven't had any issues. Thanks for reporting.

We are working on this, BBDM and BBSAK don't like each other. We should have a fix for most issues reported soon.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.1
 

That popup is VERY obnoxious, I'm going back to the old version.
This is the first negative thing I've had to say about this product, I'm somewhat disappointed with you guys.

Wirelessly posted (Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9650; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.222 Mobile Safari/534.1+)

I'm sorry you feel that way, for a small 5 dollar donation we are offering a version with out the popup. We have put over 100 hrs into BBSAK and currently are not even blackberry users, we continue to update this product bc of our love for phones. We will NEVER require you to pay for BBSAK and yet you will still get a FULL version with no limitations. So if you feel the need to have a version wo the popup we have made that available to you.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

First post updated with version v1.8.2 lots of little fixes download now & enjoy! :thumbleft:

Thanks Bro...

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hello, thanks for all your work, I had no way to use this 1.8.2 because last night I installed new OS, if I can after I try and I'll know when I will have to charge my card I send my contribution for your work.
Best regards and thanks again

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi Again,

Please find attached a screenshot that shows the problem with capturing the device screen (it happens on both an 8310 and 8100, so would not be device specific, I think).

Obviously, let me know if you want me to do any specific testing / trials - only too happy to help.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Oh ok, got you now. That should be an easy fix, but we will wait a little to see if there are any more issues with version 1.8.2. Thanks again.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Had a great experience with bask and my upgrade to the leaked 975 os... One idea

Is there anyway to add a feature to direct the loader to the particular os you want to install? Saos let's you load from the pointed to os is why Im asking. Then I don't need two programs

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

We will have to look into this. Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

hey mike!

can you send me the link to download bbsak with the changes you made to fix the BB Storm 9550 backing all the applications issue?

Thanks!

Phillip

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

This has always been a great program for me and i will donate later today. My question is this, i have attached my screen to this post. I have the text on my computer set to 125% instead of 100% so i can see better. When i do this bbsak looked like the attachment. Any way we can make the program sizeable, so we can change how big the box is of the program?

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi!

I use multiple Blackberry devices as I do some testing on them. I've recenty ran ran across your application and I was very curious if it would be able to install an application I've been having trouble installing on an 8310. Still doesn't work but i'm assuming it's the way the software was designed to install apps. The app i'm trying to put on is not a COD file, but a JAD file. I noticed the disclaimer that JAD and all CODs it references must be located in the same folder. What happens if the JAD file is the only file i'm given to install the app, and there is no COD? The app is unsigned. Could that be a problem?

I'm running Windows 7 professional 64-bit. It also doesn't recognize my BB Tour 9630 from Sprint.

Please advise!

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

I also just tried installing Opera onto a bold 9000, and it's a no go as well :(

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

You definitely need the cod with the jad as the jad is just a pointer file...

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

I guess the problem here is that the JAD file is linked to a JAR file rather than a COD file. No way we could tweak the app to install the JAR?

Hopefully the programmer (Wide) comes by soon to answer that possibility.

i have an issue with the size of the window on bbsak, i cant see half the buttons..i had the same issue with ver 1.7 but was able to maximize the window witch is now disabled.

attached is a screenshot

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

My backup keeps hanging at 99%...need to kill it with taskmanager. Using Windows7 as admin with UAC off.

When I look in the BBSAK folder, my backups appear to be there and look complete. Any ideas on the "hang" at 99%???

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

The same thing is happening to me also.
I'm using windows XP.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Are you using the latest 1.8.2? There was a small update

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi Everyone

How long does an AppRestore take?
My 9700 is still connected via usb and the BBSAK restore my 3rd Apps since approx. 60 minutes.
On my BB screen i see a picture with a bb and a pc and two arrows, no moving or something like that.
BBSAK on my pc is running, but i cant do anything with it. No results to a button push or so.
I backuped the Apps from my old 9700, got a new 9700 and started the restore.

I use BBSAK 1.8.2

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Yes I upgraded as soon as 1.8.2 came out.

1.8.1 (or maybe 1.8...not sure if I ever installed .1) didn't hang at 99%, but it also didn't show a progress window, it would just backup in the background and give a "complete" dialog when finished.

I much prefer seeing the progress, so when it eventually works (or I find out what is causing the problem here) it will be the better option.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Its attached to the first post.

In previous versions we keep the maximize button. Which we disabled in v1.8+. Looks like we need to allow that again. Wait for the next build and we will re-allow maximize.

JAD files just reference CODs to install on the device. You can not load jars on blackberries.

In previous versions we keep the maximize button. Which we disabled in v1.8+. Looks like we need to allow that again. Wait for the next build and we will re-allow maximize.

If the bb to pc with arrows screen is showing then it should still be loading the backup. Did it ever load? And approximately how many apps do you have in your backup?

Hmm backups should not hang at 99%. Could you look into your backup folder and tell me if the backup.alx or backup.jad is there and if they are complete?

Thanks everyone for reporting bugs!
~mike

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi Mike

I've started new. It's still the same.
I've approx 25-30 Apps, +/- 5 i think.
i will wait longer this time. Hope it will finished.

Edit: It runs know for 75 minutes...still working hopefully

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Something must be wrong here, could you zip up your backup and email or link me? So I can review and try on my test device?
~mike

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Backup.alx is present in the backup folder. It is 20kb and ends (in notepad) with <loader>. Backup.jad is not present.

Other than that I'm not sure how to tell you if it is complete.

I've also uninstalled/reinstalled BBSAK.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi
Ok, will sent you the backup via skype and sent a friendrequest to you.

Andreas

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

I still can not get BBSAK v1.8.2 to detect my Tour 9630 (OS 5.0.0.484). Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. It keeps saying No Device Detected, BBDM works fine. I am running BBSAK as Administrator. V1.7 worked for a while and then started doing the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Try using a different USB port. Also try rebooting/batterypull on the Tour while its plugged to USB port and BBSAK is open. Try "kill processes" Do you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed? You'll need the drivers from it.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Tried a different USB port, tried rebooting Tour while plugged in and BBSAK open, tried "Kill Processes". Still no luck. Yes, I have BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.0.0.43 installed. Any other ideas?

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

So it appears to be hanging on jad creation I assume. How many apps are you using? Cause your the first to report this to my knowledge.

Accepting, awaiting on the download and I will look into the restore issue.

This one is super odd. You only have one phone connected to PC? Also I would like to see whats going on live. Mind using teamviewer and letting me watch what happens?
~mike

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Correct, I only have one phone connected. What do I need to do to allow you to watch?

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

There are 147 items in the BBSAK back-up folder, but I realize each isn't an individual app.

My Third Party Apps list in Options|Applications contains 47 programs, but many are links/launchers like Crackberry and Dcom. I don't think I have anything exotic.

The BBSAK backup folder is 35.9 MB.

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

You would need to download and run TeamViewer and also let me know what timezone and when is best to try and get together so I can view.

Yeah I think we have narrowed the issue down to the jad/alx function but it works with a had full of apps installed. So we are trying to see if its a particular program/cod thats causing the issue. Would you mind zipping your backup folder and sending to me?
~mike

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

Hi Mike

Could you find out something?
I really need the backup for my device.

Ice

Re: [10/1/10] BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife v1.8.2
 

I have downloaded TeamViewer, I'm in Central timezone, anytime today would work or after 7 PM next week.
