BIDENTIFY(1)						      General Commands Manual						      BIDENTIFY(1)

NAME

       bidentify - Barry Project's program to identify BlackBerry handhelds

SYNOPSIS

       bidentify [-B busname][-N devname][-h][-v]

DESCRIPTION

       bidentify  scans  the  USB  system for available BlackBerry devices and probes each one it finds, then sends the identifying information to
       stdout in a computer-friendly format.

OPTIONS

       -B busname
	      Specify the USB bus to search for Blackberry devices on.	This is the first number displayed in the output from the  lsusb  command,
	      such  as	002.   If  the busname is numeric on your system, 2 and 002 are equal.	See also the -N option, which can be used together
	      with this option to precisely select the device to work with.

       -N devname
	      Specify the USB device name.  This is the second number displayed in the output from the lsusb command, such as 005.  If the  device
	      name is numeric on your system, 5 and 005 are equal.  See also the -B option.

       -c     If  used	with the -m option, ESN numbers will be displayed in both hex and decimal formats where possible.  If -m is not used, this
	      option has no effect.

       -m     Also show the device's ESN / MEID / IMEI number.	This requires desktop database access, so is an option.   It  will  only  work	on
	      devices that have no password.

       -v     Dump verbose protocol data during operation.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

RETURN STATUS

       If  bidentify  detects  a  BlackBerry device, but cannot access it for some reason, it will write an error message to stderr describing the
       access problem, and return a count of the number of such failed devices as the error code.  A return code of 0 means there were	no  Black-
       Berry devices found that could not be probed.

       In the event of a fatal error, the message will be written to stderr, with an error code of 1.

       bidentify is part of the Barry project.	This manual page was written by Chris Frey.
