NAME

       brawchannel - Barry Project's program to create a channel to a BlackBerry application

SYNOPSIS

       brawchannel [-h][-p pin][-P pass][-v] <channel name>

DESCRIPTION

       brawchannel  is	a  tool  for  connecting  to  an  application  channel	on  a  BlackBerry device, as provided to on device programs by the
       net.rim.device.api.system.USBPort API. Data received on the channel will be output to STDOUT and any data received on STDIN in will be sent
       over the channel. Any errors or verbose output will be written to STDERR.   The channel name provided to this program should be the same as
       the channel name passed to the call to net.rim.device.api.system.USBPort.registerChannel

OPTIONS

       -h     Display a command help summary.

       -p pin Specifies the PIN number of the device with which you wish to communicate, when multiple devices are connected.

       -P password
	      A simplistic method to specify the device password.

       -v     Verbose debug output.  This enables dumping of USB bus scanning, as well as the protocol packets used  during  communication.   This
	      will  cause libusb to output information on STDOUT, which will usually be undesirable. Setting the environment variable USB_DEBUG to
	      0, 1 or 2 should prevent any addition output on STDOUT.

AUTHOR

       brawchannel was initially written for the Barry project by RealVNC Ltd., based on bjavaloader by Nicolas Vivien.

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.
