Blackberry Coming on Strong with new Stuff
Blackberry is introducing new APIs for there 5.0 software. This will definnitely make their phone more competitive as new smartphones come quickly into the marketplace. The new APIs will significantly enhance productivity, functionality, and entertainability. Push functions, in third party apps is a big thing. As new apps come on line with push functionality, your message box will become increasingly important and useful.
At Research in Motion’s BlackBerry Developer Conference Monday, the company made a slew of announcements that aim to boost the platform’s appeal to developers.[Source]
The message box is already a communications dynamo. It integrates all of your email, sms, mms, and instant messaging into a single inbox. How much better can it get? Apparently much better. More message, more consolidation, more features.

Shady currently supports mms photo filtering. In the main settings turn on experimental filtering using the option. If your Shady contact receives an mms photo message, and the download of the photo completes, the image will be completely filtered. Give the experimental feature a try, and expect much progress in future updates. I have an [...]

Because there are only two other, aftermarket, SMS clients on Android this may not be an obvious thing. Android phones are operating on cross network carriers. CDMA and GSM networks are being used and they process SMS messages differently. CDMA networks have a limit of 160 characters to each SMS. Because of this if a [...]

A sorely lacked feature has been MMS photo support. I am happy to report it is relatively close to being released. After this feature is stable, and released, its on to T-Mobile support. Then 2.2 support; I may need to wait for 2.2 on the Incredible, or actually purchase the Nexus 1 with a prepaid [...]

Android Blackbook is now confirmed to work on older HTC models. This is promising, and later today I will do some tests on Motorola models. There is still many things to do, and many hurdles that simply cannot be overcome. Notifications for missed incoming calls cannot be avoided because the notification is broadcasted from a [...]

After rewiring my entire house the ultimate way to isolate the problem is to put the cable modem directly on the main line. Replace all splitters, and ask the cable company to drop a new main line, and you can feel confident that the problem is no longer in your house. I rewired my entire [...]

Its time for a shift. Windows XP, the longtime staple of industries around the world, has a deadline. It will no longer be supported by Microsoft in 2014. Because of this companies will either need to upgrade to Windows 7, or some sort of alternative. Windows 7 costs been 4-6 thousand dollars for a 30 [...]

Oh, given my previously elabored backup configuations I have one further thing I would like to do. Since backup 1, and 2 are only used once per day I would like to spin down the hard drivers to increase longevity. I figured dismounting the drive would be effective, but I have encountered several things. First, [...]

Apparent there is either a sensitive aspect to iPhone software, or an integrated kill mechanism. I have a friends iPhone that simply cannot be restored. There is an error 9 that cannot be avoided. I have placed the phone in DFU mode, which is apparently the ultimate restore mode, from which even the most damaged [...]
