- Pete6Retired ModeratorOk, I've searched the Help files and the forums, but I still can't get Crackmem to find the installed OS's on my PC. I have XP set up to install all programs to the D: drive, instead of C:. Is this my problem? When I start CM, it says 'no operating systems found'.
Thanks in advance for any help.
If you have done this then we need to investigate further. Please let me know what happens as if there is a bug, I need to fix it.12-29-08 06:32 AMLike 0 - 12-29-08 08:12 AMLike 0

No idea if these can be safely removed for AT&T users. Should not matter for others because the client install is linked to VendorID.12-29-08 08:20 AMLike 0 - BrantaRetired Network ModBlackBerry OS 8900 (8900-v4.6.1.101_P4.2.0.72) file bloat not moved by CrackMem v3.1

All other bloatware files appear to be handled as required. Until Pete6 has time to update CrackMem, users may wish to use CrackMem v3.1 and then manually move the list above to 'Removed Files'.12-29-08 08:24 AMLike 0 -
- Thank you for this excellent piece of software Pete6. The utility is an awesome timesaver when you are upgrading an OS and I recommend it to all my colleagues, business contacts and friends who have BB's!12-29-08 02:12 PMLike 0

The code in CrackMem that handles the OS type, boot disks and where the OS lives will be an object lesson for future programmers by the time we are finished.
Thanks for the stuff on the 8220 too. I will get a new version out in a couple of weeks. I want to make changes to the logic of how existing files are overwritten and to put each OS's Vendor.xml into its own OS folder so that there is no more mix ups with "It won't delete.".Last edited by Pete6; 12-29-08 at 02:43 PM.

8220 - You might get some amusement from the programmer comments I found in net_rim_bb_medialoader_114_five_icon_library.cod - cited in the big analysis. It is also interesting because 114 has more icons than 100 so it looks like the US flag doubles the size of the file, I can't imagine this is a consequence of the DRM change.
8900 is also there. See what you make of the notes I found about CaptivePortal, which could be good or bad depending how it implements. This is specific to AT&T users and so far only in the 8900 OS. Looking again I suspect it is linked to AT&T "public" WiFi hotspots so it might be overall beneficial for AT&T customers. We need someone to test the impact before a decision whether to allow move in CrackMem, or omit any references for the great unwashed newbies. Maybe CX can shed some light if you ask him.12-29-08 07:09 PMLike 0 -
When I open the software with the admin priviledges it tells me that "no operating systems could be found". thats what I mean...12-29-08 07:25 PMLike 0 -
- BrantaRetired Network ModYes, but until you install (decompress and copy) the RIM OS files into the correct location on your PC CrackMem and Desktop Manager software which install it to your phone can't find it. You have not downloaded and installed the BlackBerry OS onto your PC you need to do this before you can continue.12-29-08 08:55 PMLike 0

- Pete6Retired ModeratorWell, I know what SHOULD be hapenning and clearly it is not.
Let's see if we can find out why things are not working. There have been over 2000 downloads of CrackMem and a lot of positive feedback so we know it mostly works.
What PC operating system are you running?
Is the boot drive C: ?
Is the Program Files folder also on C: ?
What is the filename that you downloaded as the BlackBerry OS?
Do you have Desktop Manager installed? It must be installed.
Which version (v4.5, 4.6, 4.7)? 4.6 with no media manager is the best version.
Sorry to bombard you with questions but knowning the answers to all this should tell me what is going wrong.12-30-08 05:42 AMLike 0 - Well, I know what SHOULD be hapenning and clearly it is not.

thanks for your help!01-01-09 09:47 AMLike 0 - Pete6Retired Moderator
- Did you do the stuff in the help file specific to Vista? This has to be done.
- Did you install the OS? You just need to double click on the file you downloaded, wait a while and then follow the prompts. Once these two poins are done CrackMem should display the installed OS in its's left hand panel.
- Does Desktop Manager recognize your phone? If it does, your PIN number will be displayed at bottom left of the DM panel.
If things are still not working, please try to separate problems into sections of Desktop Manager problems, CrackMem problems, other problems. Eliminate one problem at a time and we will get there in the end.01-02-09 02:29 AMLike 0 - Pete6Retired ModeratorIf you like my program, vote for it in http://forums.crackberry.com/f136/20...ty-app-128162/01-02-09 07:48 PMLike 0
