I use BBSAK a lot for backing up my cods and for loading OSes. Its a great program to have and use.aaahhhhhhh. Ty Underway
Well, I don't plan on building hybrids anytime soon, so I won't need to use that function 
.
I honestly didn't spend any time on the site last night after I backed up my apps, hopefully I'll get some time tonight to look this over. Thanks for the link Underway

I also use it for deleting cods from an install. Very powerful program.01-18-11 03:18 PM - No complaints, JayDee. I get column view if the browser detects a mobile site, and the same problems that you have if it's a regular (desktop) site.
CB mobile view:
CB default view:
Do you still have problems if you are looking at a mobile site? I could not get Bolt to open a mobile site, just the regular ones.Last edited by Underway99; 01-18-11 at 03:30 PM.

Ask and ye shall receive...
From the front page:
http://crackberry.com/blackberry-swi...advanced-users01-18-11 03:33 PM - I couldn't do it with Bolt, either. What happens when you just type http://m.crackberry.com into the native browser? Or, when you've opened a regular page, look for a link to a mobile version of the page. Often it's at the bottom, buried in the legalese stuff that we typically ignore.So wait, do I have to set my native browser a certain way for it to recognize a mobile site?
It doesn't recognize cb as a mobile site on my phone. Are there settings for this? I can't believe I have so much trouble with this browser...
If you're using Shao's CB launcher to open CB, it defaults to the mobile view.
OBTW, I don't know of any special settings for my browser. Recall that we compared browser settings over the weekend, and we were both set up the same way.Last edited by Underway99; 01-18-11 at 03:44 PM.
01-18-11 03:37 PM - Well honestly on my last bb (8330) I didn't load any paid apps or OS's so I never loaded BbSak onto my desktop. But now that I'm getting even more comfortable (aft 2+yrs-lol) with using bb I'm loading more stuff on that I want to be able to back up etc. and eventually at some point I will need to load an OS I've always heard it great to have & looking at the menu last night, it does seem simpler to use than DM as far as needing to load an OS, but I've never done it so when I do I'm sure I'll know what will work best for me. ok sorry for rambling on....

Ramble on!01-18-11 03:47 PM - I've tried m.crackberry.com and it seems no different to me. Nothing that looks like column view. Is there something else to enable? Like JayDee said, on the browser perhaps?
On another note: I was out and about today and walked by a t-mobile shop. I had a nice 9 year relationship with them so I stop in every so often when handy. I tried out the 9780 on their 3G network and found it to be no different than my 9650 as far as speed, seemed the same to me. I loaded CB up and found it to be just as laggy of a load as on my 9650(gotta be a cb thing).
I also checked out a samsung vibrant. The screen size and resolution is absolutely amazing to an old guy who has trouble reading my BB font with glasses on. I loaded CB up on that and what a difference, fast,fast,fast! I wish I liked touch screens more. I never quite get past the learning curve before I get frustrated with it. The kb was weird as usual. I type a test email and end with cya and of course it types cyan. Hate that auto text.
I need a bigger screen tho, I'm having a hard time dealing with 2.4" for browsing. Got an upgrade coming this May. What to do?
Side note: Tried a wp7 while there, one word sums that up: YUCK!
I wish BB would come out with something a tad bigger in the screen dept.
As I do more traveling in my retired life, I might get better use out of a larger screen device. Even if verizon just gets the torch with it's bigger screen and all, I guess AT+T will get torch2 maybe. So why get torch1? Got 4 months to consider my options. I miss GSM for all they offer, but don't miss their crappier coverage.
Just me rambling,
ciao01-18-11 04:31 PM - I tried a torch a couple of months ago and liked the bigger screen. I was rushed and forgot to try CB on the browser. The people I was with were not phone device fanatics.
The kb was not bad imo as some have said they thought it not so great. All in all I'd probably not want to waste an upgrade on one.01-18-11 05:13 PM - Jim,On another note: I was out and about today and walked by a t-mobile shop.

Don't go to the darkside, don't!!!!
01-18-11 05:48 PM - Here's a strange one. Ok so most of us here have the FontCollection app. I just went thru it and changed my font for the 5th time since yesterday
.
I now decided on "East Market" and would you believe, when viewing my bbm contacts, including mine that have special/funky fonts, it will not recognize it
so it actually looks like blanks spaces in between the 'normal' characters. Anyone else notice this? So far the ones I've tried, Cavier Dreams, Bloody, Sansation, Lemon Chicken don't do this.

There's one called bloody?
01-18-11 06:15 PM - On the subject of fonts anybody want to take a stab at the question: Why is it no matter what your browser font settings are set at your font is one size. Either so tiny it's impossible to read without zooming and the dreaded scrolling. Or if you get lucky and hit column view they are so huge as to be ridiculous?
I mean c'mon RIM fix it already.01-18-11 06:32 PM - Because the fonts we control are system fonts and the browser must not be part of the system...lolOn the subject of fonts anybody want to take a stab at the question: Why is it no matter what your browser font settings are set at your font is one size.

I dunno. When I change fonts with the Font App, all the fonts change on the whole dang phone except the browser!
So weird huh?
Don't you hate the large size; cause then you have to go back and try to get the page focused again at just the right size. Most of the time I can't get it to work. I stopped using the web altogether until I loaded Bolt.Last edited by jaydee5799; 01-18-11 at 06:44 PM.
01-18-11 06:42 PM - Yeah, why they included stupid fonts like that I'll never know. They are way too outlandish and large to be included in a PHONE app collection, no? I mean, who wants to use a font that only allows three letters on the screen at a time? lolLOL!YES! Its very Halloween-ish!

I have added a could more professional fonts or ones that have a little flair to them but aren't really crazy. Wish the app included more of those but good thing we can go get our own.01-18-11 06:47 PM
