NO - I am not

[John Clark]

Then it's something wrong with the apn. Either your plan doesn't support it, or it's incorrect.

[VIOLATOR]

Well that just sucks

But - I do kinda feel better if it is not something I did wrong or failed to do!

I will try to get with Centennial Wireless during the week and see if I can get it figured out.

Thanks John

hi!
I have installed BBWeather and BBToday.

I am using BBWeather with no problem disabling the Disable MDS Proxy checked, but about BBToday, it seams to work good with either the checkbox checked or not.

what is the corret setting for it? I would like to use the right correct setting for it..


Ps: it seams that BBToday does not save custom Options Plugin Slots positions.
have you find any solution for this?

thank you.

[VIOLATOR]

OK - I am back at it...

When I updated my OS to v4.5 - BBWeather showed up on my system. At least I think it is BBWeather? It has the BB logo in the top right corner when it opens up after clicking on the icon?

However the icon does not update regularly and will stay the same for 2-3 days??

I have been all up and down my BB system and have not been able to find any settings on how to fix this? The icon is still showing the moon and 33 degrees from 2 days ago.

I also have WeatherEye installed now and I do not have any problem with that program...

Any input would really be appreciated because even though WeatherEye works - It is a Canadian based program and I have to set it to a city about an hour away.

I had no problem with it,but I have to say that about BBToday I had to enable the firewall to let it work correctly.
That is the only way to edit its parameters.

Hope this could help.

I'm running AutoStandby (which is a great battery-saving ap) to have the BB go to standby instead of lock. I still want to have my BB lock when holstered and I want the ability to password protect, so I don't disable password protection. To ensure that I can turn my alarm (BBSmart Alarms Pro) off quickly, I figured that I could also use BBLight to disable lock when plugged in. However, it doesn't seem to work.

I find that after an extended period of time, lock kicks in.

I'm using the latest version of BBLight.. or I think it's the latest version... 1.85.

[rojocrandall]

I use BBLight for the same reason - to stop the locking so I can easily disable BBSmart Alarms Pro in the morning. My version of BBLight is 1.87

Thanks!!
I trust from your msg that it works well.
Will look for that version.

If I upgrade my BB8100 OS all my BBWeather and BBToday settings get lost!
How can I prevent this from happening?
Is there a way to backup the settings before an OS upgrade?
Thank you.

[NJBlackBerry]

No, there is no way to backup the information. It is not stored in one of the databases that is backed up.

Is it stored in some system file that can be reached via usb connection?

[EnigmaV8]

BBLight works perfectly on my Storm! YAY!! Now I have the ultimate Crackberry whilst mounted on my motorcycle. GPS, Bluetooth music, etc.

Any chance of BBLight adding an option for BlackBerry Messenger messages? I've browsed the API and it looks possible but my Java skills are pretty lacking.

What API do you think handles it? If it's there, I will certainly try and add it.

[Lori Goulding]

This would be great if you could add BB messenger as an option.

Can you do reminders also? Drives me nuts i have to pick up my phone and touch key in order to read the reminder on screen.

Thanks.

New version of BBlight is available for testing...Compiled with JDE v4.21, so any OS version greater than v4.21 should work. I am using it on a Bold with v4.6.0.234

v1.90 changes

1) Added option for simultaneous vibration and ringing on incoming phone calls. For it to work correctly: edit the profiles for "Phone" and set them to tone only and in the BBlight options screen, set the "Vibration Count for PhoneCalls" to something greater than 0. You can also set the vibration duration and the time between vibrations in milliseconds.

2) Added 4 options for SMS and Email which determine whether or not the Message application is opened when a new email or SMS is received:
--a) Never
--b) Only on Homescreen
--c) Never while on phone call
--d) If idle more than XX seconds

3) Removed "Keep Device from Locking" option. It did not seem to work.


Some things to be aware of:
The vibration and ringing feature is experimental and doesn't work quite like I want it to. I couldn't find any way to get the active profile from the BB device. This means, that if "Vibration Count for PhoneCalls" is greater than 0, it will always vibrate on incoming calls, even when your profile is set to Off.


There have been a few user requests for monitoring BBMessenger, but that does not appear possible according to a BlackBerry Development Advisor (details are here).

I will also look to see if it is possible to monitor "reminders."

Developers of VibAndRing, BuzzMe etc have the same issue. I believe the RIM APIs are very restrictive concerning what you can/cannot do with profiles.

Many thanks for v1.90

I think I fixed the above. New version 1.91 available to try at the same links:

v1.91 Changes

For simultaneous vibration and ringing - added BBlight to the standard device profiles. Now you can set BBLight to vibrate or not to vibrate for phone calls using the standard device profiles. And when your profile is set to off, BBlight will not vibrate. To correctly set up simultaneous vibration and ringing:
--a) In your active device Profile, set BBlight to Vibrate and Repeat Notification to None, Number of Vibrations = 1
--b) In your active device Profile, set Phone to Tone
--c) In the BBlight application, set "Vibration for Phone Calls" to something other than 0.

To turn off simultaneous vibration and ringing for a specific profile:
--a) In that device Profile, set BBlight to None
--b) In that device Profile, set Phone to None or Tone Only

To completely disable simultaneous vibration and ringing:
--a) In the BBlight application, set "Vibration for Phone Calls" to 0.
--b) And you can do the following but don't really need to
----In your active device Profile, set BBlight to None

I am testing a version now that turns on the light when Tasks and Calendar items are triggered. If all goes well, it should be available in a few days to a week.
