Blackberry,Blackberry!


Blackberry,Blackberry!

今天我在淘宝上买的Blackberry 7230到了,9成新,蓝色O2版的,组件包括:一块电池、一根数据线、一个充电器、一个耳机、一张屏幕贴膜。

已经预装了中文输入法,试用了一下,发端信不是想象中的快,大概是因为我对BB的键盘还不熟悉的原因。

耗电比我想想的慢,发端信、打电话用了两天一格电都没少,但是未雨绸缪,一个现实的问题是将来我如何在Ubuntu 7.10下面通过USB线给BB充电的问题,google了一下,发现了Bcharge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=153722

其说明如下:
'bcharge' is a utility that's part of the Barry project - which aims to be a complete desktop toolset for interfacing your BlackBerry with linux. The purpose of the bcharge tool is to detect when a BB has been plugged in and then alter the current to the USB port - it will increase the default 100mA flow up to 500mA, which is what the BlackBerry is expecting. This is exactly what the Windows driver does.

There are two parts to 'bcharge' - the main binary itself and a "udev" script. You can use the tool without doing anything, just plug in your BlackBerry to any USB port and type ./bcharge (substitute the path if needed). This will scan all the USB devices plugged in, find your BB handset, and adjust the current flow. It's that simple.

注:另外一种充电方式是通过修改脚本实现自动充电,但是我还是喜欢手动方式。

其使用步骤按照网上别人的使用经验如下:
- 下载安装包,我只下载了那些带ubuntu字样的包;
- 在Ubuntu desktop下双击安装;
- 重启机器(就安装完需要,但是我怀疑其实根本不需要);
- 插上BB;
- run './bcharge'

恩,等没电了我来尝试一下
