Re: Fw: BlackBerry Curve Backup Error

Hi John,

Sorry for the delay in resonding.

Are you able to build binary packages yourself?

In order to further debug this issue, I'll need to add some logging
around the usb_bulk_read call.

Thanks,
- Chris

New tool based on libbarry

Hi, I have written a small tool that uses libbarry and SDL to display a
(sort of) video of your blackberry screen. I'd like to share it here in
case it is useful to someone. Feedback is appreciated!

To compile: g++ scr.cc -lSDL -lbarry -o scr

Note: currently refresh rate is set to 2fps in order to keep the device
responsive. If you need higher fps, change the commented line in the
source file (from 500 to something like 100).

Thanks very much!  Do you mind if I include it in the official Barry tree?

I've actually added this to the Barry tree, under tools.

The configure script checks for the SDL library, and builds bwatch if
available.

I've added the usual -p -P and -v command line switches.

I added a -d switch to specify the delay interval between screen updates.

I changed the code to resize the screen, in case the screenshot dimensions
change.  This happens on devices like the Storm, when you tilt it and it
goes into landscape mode.

I moved the Probe code out of the main loop.

I added it to the binary packages, along with a man page.

No, nothing, the message seems correctly sent but it never appears on the
list. I'm trying again this time CCing the list...

That seemed to work.  I've set your subscription to send ack messages
when you post.  Please try again with a reply just to the list and see what
happens.
