Browsing the file system of your BB - copy, move, rename, (un)zip or delete files & directories and much more! I would like to use the opportunity to present an application that I have written for the all BB with OS 4.3 or higher (sorry no support for 4.2.1 devices) [successfully tested (by other users and myself) with 8110, 8310, 8330, 8800, 8820, 8830, 9000 & 9500]. Core Features
Some files on a BB devices have some sort of DRM (DigitalRightsManagement). Cause of this it could be, that the files can not be copied, moved. BBFileScout will give you a warning information once you try to copy a file that have 'encrypted content' - BBFileScout will mark these files with a "lock" symbol. Additionally it could be the case, that even deleting of this content is not possible. BBFileScout is pay-what-you-want: if you find the application useful day by day and you want that I am able to invest more of my time into the development of this application, then please be so kind and send me a little donation - details at the BBFileScout Homepage - TIA. Features What you can do with BBFileScout
* Deleting or renaming files from your Blackberry can harm the core functionality of the device - use this function at your own risk! ** Not all media types might be supported by your device *** Some files on a Blackberry device are marked as "BuildIn" - unfortunately most of the time it's not possible for BBFileScout to delete this type of files. **** The 3'rd party application itself have to support to be started with an file as additional command line parameter (this is quite usual in other OS's but I do not know much about 3'rd party Blackberry applications right now) - It's e.g. successfully tested with 'RepliGo Reader' (and 'pdf' as custom file association) License/Price BBFileSout is offered on a 'pay-what-you-want' base - This means that the software that you can download is fully functional. It comes without any functional restrictions or evil things like a nag-screen. If you are going to use this application then please be so fair and send me a donation - what ever you think the application is worth and of course what ever you can (or will) afford to pay. Installation You will find the download link (incl. OTA) at the BBFileScout Homepage Additional Notes
Once again: Deleting or renaming files from your Blackberry can harm the core functionality of the device - use this function at your own risk! - Don't blame me, if you have bricked your BB. Looking forward for your comments Matthias |
Matthias--
Thanks for bringing this so far so quickly. I will definitely send a donation your way this evening (don't have my PayPal token with me ;-))... A couple of quick comments on your latest version:

1000 bytes = 1Kilobyte 1024 bytes = 1Kibibyte and since my app is deviding the filesize by 1024 - KiB is the correct abbreviation -> Kibibyte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Quote:

It would be handy to be able to create text files as well ... is that on your list of future items?
Thanks, Joachim |
Currently, the app opens JAD files as text. Please consider launching the file in order to initiate an installation of the app, as is currently done by the RIM Media app. I will try adding a custom file association...
[NOTE: Custom file association did not resolve the issue. In fact, BBFileScout removed the association to Media following a device reboot.] |
Gr8 release & a fantastic app!! :)
A couple of small things to consider : * Ability to "Move '<dir>'' would fit-in nicely between "Rename" and "Delete" * Change "Open File '<filename>'" to "View '<filename>'" * Change "Open '<filename>' (PlainText Editor)" to "Edit '<filename>' (PlainText Editor)" * Ability to change font/fontsize within PlainText Editor. Also, if I click on a WinWord file it does quickly flashes up Word To Go and returns to BBFileScout. I have to then go and switch to Word To Go to view/edit the file. Is it possible to force Word To Go into the foreground (and return to BBFileScout upon closing Word To Go)? |

Another problem which I noticed with zip file is that if copy the jad and cod files to my SD card and I try to install the app from there.. the installation fails. However the installation works fine using DM. I was wondering if it is just me or there are other people like me facing the same issue..
But otherwise this is a wonderful app.. I am loving it. |

Nice I will try the new version. I already donated a bit ago, though. :D
It would be interesting to see on blackberry COD to JAD convertor. *edit* OOPS! I managed to crash it when I tried to open this file: /store/tmp/medialoader.ml with this error: Uncaught exception: invalid initialvalue |
Am I missing something - you can't open PDF files even with Repligo Reader installed??
Also, word documents dont open automatically - you have to use the escape key to go back to the document. |

PDF -> required 3'rd party reader like 'RepliGo Reader' and then you have to associate the pdf extension with this app (via the BBFileScout options) |

two times thank you visortgw - actually I do not wonder, that the 'jad' association (with media) does not do anything... I am still way to new to BB's in general in order to realize this functionality... I am not confident, that's possible in general...
But I was quite successful with other stuff during the day... so expect an update more or less soon... |
