Blackberry for the rest of us



   

Berry4all - Blackberry support for the rest of us


Berry4All is a free, open-source software for using your Blackberry on alternative OS'es (Linux, OSX...)
Formerly known as BBTether.
Berry4All is released under the Artistic License.

Features


Right now the main feature of Berry4all is tethering (use the blackberry as a modem)

It has been tested on multiple versions of Linux and OS X

More features are planned for later (install apps, sync etc...)

It is fairly easy to install since it's written in Python and does not need to be compiled.

I have just tested 0.3k and confirm it is fully working with BB 8320 and italian provider TIM. I wrote the configuration script.

Title: Possible GPS Use?
So, I'm most likely making incorrect assumptions here, but since my BlackBerry 8330 has built in GPS, and I use a desktop GPS program like tangoGPS when tethered?

Just wondering.

Title: Blackberry Tour 9630 on OSX?
I did all the steps necessary, even the recompiling part of the usb drivers. Whenever I try to connect and enter the correct device password, I get this:

Seed: [239, 132, 206, 168]
Sending password digest:
[3, 0, 0, 0, 129, 244, 242, 83, 177, 241, 218, 197, 103, 213, 84, 245, 218, 207, 204, 58, 178, 224, 116, 60, 120, 86, 52, 18]

answer []
Unexpected answer: []
Passord was not accepted, cannot continue !

What does "answer []" mean? Moreover, why is it that I enter the correct password and still nothing happens? Thanks!
