I'm really looking to see if there is any interest first. I'll prolly release some screenshots tomorrow to give everyone a feel for how it will look. Thanks for the suggestion though, I'll definitely consider it.
Just a side note: The blackberry JDE is even buggier than the storm os
No wonder our storms crash so much!01-26-09 06:05 PM - Well, it seems I've hit a bit of a brick wall. There does not appear to be any reasonable way to get the memory statistics per program in the api, and because BB runs on java, its very difficult (impossible?) for me to manually access and count the memory used in the virtual machine. As of now, I simply have a more detailed overview of how the total memory is being used (see screenshot - note: screenshot was taken in a VM, so the memory in pic does not reflect real BBStorm usage). So, I was thinking that I would release the program (in its beta state) as a kindof preview if there is interest.
Oh, and thanks for the comments so far, I'm looking into some of the suggestions
~King01-27-09 03:35 PM - Beta Testing:
I've decided to go ahead and start a small beta test on different storms and OS's to check for compatibility. I'm looking for roughly 5-10 people with interest in this program. So if you would like to participate, PM me on this forum with the following info:
Storm model number: (ex. 9530, 9520, 9500)
Storm OS (ex. .75, .76, .85, .86, .90)
And a small note as to functionality that you are looking for in the program. Also if you have coding experience and would like to contribute to the project.
I'll then send testers the .alx and .jad files to install the program with BBManager.
I also plan to provide beta testers with a free copy of the finished version once it is completed as an incentive to help out. I would like to get some good feedback on things that I could change/fix to make this a worthwhile effort and a useful tool.
