This thread is to enable firstcomers to comment on whether they managed to install BBC and make it work. This is a major requirement for me to move into HD2. I look forward to receiving news from you all.
if it works in winmo 6.5 why shouldnt it work with HD2?
For whatever reason it didn't work on HD.
I really doubt about BIS working on HD2, as i tried a lot but not successful in gettting it to work in my HD.
However, BES may work.
It worked flawlessly on my ex-HD (installed on shipped ROM and tested on most of the cooked ROMs including Leo build ROMs) the trick was be changing the AKU of the build then installing the latest 4.0.0.106
Changing the AKU can be done by installing the attached cab.

Anyone succeeded?
I had the same issue, activation pending for ages if activated over the air.
Try instead to install the BB Desktop tool for windows and activate it this way. No password needed (if your PC is connected to your mail server) and it works in a glimpse...

Hi,
Do you use BES?
Do you use the BB Connect Desktop tool for registering?
Have you changed the AKU version in the registry and restarted before installing?
If so and no success, it would be a shame. I also need it for work and planned to get the HD2 soon...

I am using BES.
Did not use the Desktop tool to connect.
Upon installing the software on the HD2, click 'Register', it initiates a data connection, gets an IP address, then disconnects. Longest i have had it working for is 1 min.
Will try the desktop tool but not putting any to it.
Have tried changing the AKU and other settings but
Any ideas ?
Whilst I prefer Exchange Activesync I'll give it a go again our BES when I get into the office later. will let you know

Does anyone else know more about this? Would liek to use this if possible?
Works With MDAII?
Does anyone know what would happen if I try to download this update with BES to MDAII?
There is a newer ROM version 1.72187 on the O2 Source site. a copy of which can be found on Here I believe it has the blackberry software removed and allows GPRS whilst on a call
Can I put this rom on an i-mate (i-mate 1.72 rom)? Any potential problems like device error or freezing?
Thanks in advance.
you can put it on 1.72 imate rom

To re-phrase, will this ROM upgrade that contains Blackberry software work with the T-Mobile MDA II?
chix, you have to change some settings to the ROM prior to upgrade... and you have to set the black berry settings after upgrade

Hobbit, the rom that comes with the blackberry client is for general consumers, if you can get the appropriate APN enabled on your SIM and are able to register with o2email.co.uk then , aside from any possible additional charges, then I see no reason why it won't work.
There's always the problem of getting the right APN on your sim tho...

Speak to O2 Customer Retentions Team (CRT) they are the only people that can change you to a BB acocunt at the moment. After that you will pay £15 pm for a 5Mb bundle (Still unsure if this includes all GPRS surfing as I was told this was the case when I took out the tariff, but then have since had conflicting reports).
It works very well, with no real hit on battery power.
See the thread on black configuration on this site for more details.
Will this ROM 1.72.181 work with O2 bought in Asia
Dear all,
My machine is bought in Singapore and the latest ROM update 1.60 was also supplied for Asia as well. Will there be any problem with upgrade for UK O2 customers?
Thanks.
Hi all,
This is just to note that BlackBerry Connect 2.1 (which was working fine with AKU 2.3) doesnot work with AKU 3.3 - RUU_Hermes_HTC_WWE_2.05.255.1_6275_1.34.00.10_108_Test.exe
Anybody tried it ?
Yeah - found the same problem here too. Running BB Connect 2.1.2.16 and aku 3.3, but no joy. Its a real pain cos 3.3 fixes the crappy BlueTooth car kit issues, so now I can call hands free without recsetting the headset profile, but no email!
Have you tried a later BB Connect version. I'm using 2.1.2.31 on my v1605 with the SA 1.35 ROM and 1.20 Radio.
I can't remember where I got the later version from but I thought it was from a link posted on here..... needless to say I can't now find it!
I guess I could upload it if it's not available anywhere else.
Scratch last comment. Someone has kindly uploaded 2.1.2.52 to /Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/BlackBerry_Connect/
.... and it seems to work with AKU 3.3.
John
I can confirm this too - just got it from the ftp and it works a treat!
I finally love my TyTn now - BlackBerry, (working) BlueTooth for the Audi kit, Tom Tom - schweet!
Confirmed. BB Connect 2.1.2.52 works with AKU3.3

This is a mail client. Mostly used for a corporate environments.
this is what blackberry's use im guessing? interesting. is it a better client than the outlook or active sync? i have my gmail and my corp exchange accounts setup through outlook and active sync. though my company says it will not support it. as they only support blackberrys. thanks.
I am thinking about trying BB Connect out but I have a few questions.
What items does BB connect sync? Is it just email, calender, and contacts? Does it do tasks and notes?
Does it replace the Outlook inbox or does it create a new inbox? Does it make the device any less stable? Can you still browse the web just like you can when you are on a PDA connect plan?
Sorry for all the questions.

1) At the moment, I notice BB Connect only push your corporate email down
2) It will create a separate Blackberry Account Folder with Inbox/sent/deleted items etc , will not overlap into your outlook folder
3) Its quite stable.
4) I need other's confirmation on this, It seems like cannot browse the web if BB Connect is activated (via GPRS or UMTS), the PIE and other client will keep trying and cause the GSM Modem redial ? Does it true that Internet browsing cannot co-exist with BB Connect ? Do we need to suspend BB COnnect in order to browse ? I found it quite annoying because I can connect to Yahoo IM, browse web and receiving push mail at the sametime on my BB 7290.
I was on the Dopod AUS site earlier and noticed that along with a number of other Apps & Games that Dopod have released a version of Blackberry Connect 4.0 for PPC along with the ActiveSync BBConnect Desktop Setup application.
I dont use it myself but as i have only seen version 2.x around here i thought i would upload it so someone could check it out. The files included in the zip file are:
ActiveSync_BBConnect_Desktop_Setup_4.0.0.17.exe
bbconnect_pocketpc_bb_4[1].0.0.67.cab
bbconnect_pocketpc_bb_4[1].0.0.67.exe
BBCWM Quick Start Provisioning Guide.pdf
BlackBerry Connect 4.0 ppc user guide english.pdf
They do also specifically mention its for WM5 however with their WM6 release pending who knows it may work on WM6 as well. Heres the link to download from Megaupload: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GBSZ8FQH
Filesize: 24.19 MB
Cheers!
(and yes i know i misspelled Dopod in the title but it wouldnt let me go back and edit the post title :S)
thanks a lot for posting this one....yummy...going to try it on my 8525
Its very kind of you to share this. I am downloading it now. I thought that the Nokia E90 would be the first device to use BBC 4 but looks like Dopod beat them to it. Will install in on my Dopod 838 pro. They have not post it on the Asia site. Glad you manage to download it first as it may have been accidently been leaked. Lets see what BBC 4 have in store.
Once again thank you very much.
works on black 2.0
Well, I just installed on my 8525 running Black 2.0 WM6 version (I am on Cingular USA)....It seems to work fine with my BES and BIS emails...I love that it now syncs contacts, tasks and notes as well....Great!
Can't get the client to connect on Treo 750.
Any suggestions?
I called Cingular and told them I wanted Blackberry connect.
YES! Finally. REAL Blackberry on the PPC. I'm using mine with WM6 Black 2.0 and it works perfectly! Sync Contacts, Tasks and Notes now along with being able to do Enterprise Activation! Now I have no need to keep my RIM device around!
pin to pin
i imagine there still is no pin to pin yet so not really quite bb yet but gettin there, needs pin 2 pin then will be complete. but then maybe there is i could only hope.
This only works with blackberry sim and data plan right??

So besides the ability for our coporate Lotus Notes / BES admins to enforce policies, make me enter password every hour, shut my PPC down , enterprise activation, syncing contacts, tasks and notes and to view picture attachments what would be another appealing reason for me to upgrade from BBC 2.X ?
Have anyone installed BBC 4.0 on LVSW 0429 ROM or Black 2.5 ROM yet ?
TIA
well
i tried it on my universal running wm6
and god i got stuck on boot screen and even a hard reset not working for me
anyone please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been running BB Connect 2.blah.blah.54 for some time so it took me almost 6 installs on my Jasjam before the installation worked. Each previous time it installed and then uninstalled itself. I ended up having to copy the .CAB to my memorycard and then installed/reboot, installed/reboot until it stuck.
My company runs a BES and, using the desktop client, I was up and running in no time at all.
And why, you may ask, would I want to upgrade to all that security???
Because my carrier meters internet data separately to blackberry data and BB Connect 2 did not include a browser. So now I have a FREE!!!! browser access, not only to the internet, but my corporate network as well.
I hate to shout but...THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING
I'm having issues installing the desktop application. It installs all the way through (I even see the files in the destination directory for a split second) after which everything is removed again..... No clue what that is about. Tried to unpack the .msi file within the installer but no luck.
So I can't activate the client through my PC/Network.
Tried wireless OTA activation instead, where you have to enter your mail address and a password. You see two e-mails being sent by the device/rim server that are used for the activiation but the device doesn't seem to activate. Could it be the password needed for activation is different from the exchange password?
Strange.
It must not like the Treo 750's ROM.
I have tried 2 different SIMs both out of Blackberry 7290s. One from Cingular and one out of a T-Mobile device.
I'm stumped. It goes from "Network Available" to Data Tunnel Found" to "Not Connected".
Update: Tried the Vodafone ROM too with no luck.
Blackberry connect and browser
Managed to get the BB Connect 4.0 version running on the Black 2.0 build. AN earlier poster commented on getting the blackbeery browser to work. I did not seem to get any browser applicvation installed, do I need to do some additional config to get this up and running. I thin kI have all the service books listed.
Any help much appreciated
Thanks
Andy

Me too, but even when it appears to install properly, I can't find it in programs or settings. The 2.xx.xx versions always put a shortcut in System Settings.
Any suggestions? I'm running Black 2.0 (WM6).
Edit: Never mind, it seems to be working now!
After installation there was a Blackberry icon in the settings. This needed to be run first for initial config. After that I had a blackberry icon in my programs list that contains a browser link.

So guys, I had a BB Bold and it fell and the screen broke. The next day I got the X1 as a gift and I was wondering what features I could put on it. The application that came to my mind was BB Connect and I went through this forum for hours got the application and installed it but I had the pin pending issue so i forgot all about it and got the BB Storm, fixed the BB bold and gave it to my girlfriend.
Recently my storm fell and the screen went bad so I went back to my X1 determined to fix it. Well, the R3A rom was just released so i updated my "vodafonised" x1. Just a note, the vodafone rom was crap. I'm in Nigeria and i could not do anything with it. i couldn't even hook it up to wifi. The GPRS settings were not configurable.
The R3A ROM is perfect. No vodafone crap, and I installed BB connect version 4 and it worked like a charm. I use the MTN Nigeria BIS service.
No Pin pending! The browser works perfect.
My advise, if you need to unleash the power of the x1 then you need to get the ROM fixed.
Please see links I used below.
OPTION A
The R3A ROM and update procedures can be found here

Very interesting! First, I am new to Blackberry.
Blackberry Connect is an application for Windows Mobile which enables WinMo users to have Blackberry Service? Am I understanding this correctly?
If so, my friends which use and show off their Blackberries gonna be stunned!
can somebody confirm that is working ? We had an "almost running blackberry" thread in this forum.
Confirm: Working
Hi Guys,
It's finally working. When I installed versions .103, .92 and .90 I got the "pin pending" story. Drove me nuts.
I tried the Sems .106, and this works on R3A for me
I noticed that R1A and R2A have a device OS ID which is "HTC-Kovsky"
(this is different to what you can set in the "About", it is the ID embedded in the OS - you need a hex editor to change it, before flashing the OS file back to the phone. See here post 302: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294218)
R3A has a device id of SEMC-X1, and this seems to validate against the BB network and supplies a Pin to your device. I have read on SEMS comments that v.103 and previous don't work. So I reckon use .106..
Steps:
1) install .106
2) select sync options
3) install complete, restart
4) upon restart, connect to BB network
5) you might have to wait a few hours, because for me it connected, then disconnected, then after a few hours I went to the status tab in BBconnect, and clicked "disable" and then "enable" to kick start the connection again. Then after a few tense seconds it obtained the Pin..

This is probably something related to the BIS Service - I can't use internet also, but at my company it's not enabled for our devices.

I do not see any reason why Internet browser should not work. If you are on the BIS package, you will have a new internet explorer specifically for your blackberry connect. It should be in the blackberry folder. I don't know anything about BES>
If you have access to your providers blackberry page, you can try resending your service books. That should send all your settings back to your phone.

thnx!!!!!! it works!!! i contacted orange uk first, they activated it. i reinstalled the bb connect ver 4.0.0.106 ... after abt 2 reboots, i got my pin no!!!
now the silly part ... is there bb messenger that i can use? i only managed to get my email working.
Will I be able to use Blackberry Messenger with BB Connect? Use PIN to text my friends such a thing.
Can someone make a tutorial for this application for newbie. And yeah same question does it mean we can get bbpin with this bbconnect program
I'm wondering also if once we obtain a BB Pin, could we then use BB messenger on our Xperias...this would finally allow me to mock all of my BB-lovin friends, as I would truly own the world
Installation is very simple. But be sure that you have new rom, on R2a and R1A want work.
Activate with your service provider BB service, download 4.0.0.106 cab from here http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=338, install and wait until reeboot. In my case it immediately connected, but if not try to suspend then resume BB connection in BB folder that will be in bottom right corner on yzour today screen. And thats all folks. Other settings i did on internet site that my provider gave me. ( you can do it on the phone also BB folder-utility click on email settings)

Thanks for your workaround and I managed to get my BB Connect working on my Touch Pro 2 and I am using BIS.
Blackberry Connect is Working on HTC TouchPro2
Dear All,
Rejoice HTC TouchPro2 owners. Blackberry connect for working on HTC Touchpro 2 now. Just follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4150074&postcount=35 this web-link and you will achieve your intentions.
Can't get it working for long on mine
I have followed the instructions given in the link, and can get BBConnect 106 to work on my TP2, but only for a while ...
The BBConnect 106 loads, I get BES connection, email, contacts, calendar, notes and tasks downloaded ... manage to send and receive a few email, then it all stop ... with some very strange behaviour.
I have tried everything I can think of to get it working consistently, but can't manage it. I get the impression that the BBConnect is being loaded some place where it should be ... not very technical I know, but thats the way it appears.
The TP2 I have is a Hong Kong English Language version ... WWE ... not sure if that makes a difference.
ROM and Radio version ...
The version I have on my TP2 are
ROM 1.19.721.3 (51489) WWE
Radio: 3.44.25.27
And to correct my typo in the previous note, I think the BBConnect is being loaded shmewhere it shouldn't be loaded, which is causing other features and functions of the phone to mis-behave ... as an example, I was unable to search for new networks manually ... lost the Roaming flag on the top of the screen (small triangle sign), was always displaying GPRS connection, even when not connected to the network (so E (edge), or G being displayed ...)
I also tried version 104 of the BBconnect, just to see if it was version 106 specific, but this didn't make a difference.
Apart from that, the phone is close to perfect, for me at least ... particularly like the way the screen blanks when you are making a call and put it close to your ear, then comes alive again when you move it away so you can see it and access it. With the TP, I was always putting calls on hold when I put the phone to my ear ... also like the way the speaker phone is activated automatically when you place the phone face down.
Now if I could only get BBConnect to work, it would be perfect
I did get it working, I couldn't get SetModelID.exe to run with the reg string, I have Memmaid that allows you to set programs to run and I put SetModelID.exe in there and I have email!
Question!
Why use BBConnect for emails? What's wrong with the way the emails are already on the HTC? What is the difference exactly?
Just curious because this sounds interesting.

My company disables sync with Exchange and I can only get work email with Blackberry service. I think it's a common problem.
Yipee mine works too . only problem is sometimes the BB connect tells me radio blocked or in use especially when i use MSN chat or go online with another application on the phone. is there any option i need to tweak ?
BB CONNECT Messenger?
Can BB Messenger be used with BB Connect?
Windows Mobile 6.5 and BlackBerry Connect
Guys, I would like to hear from someone who understands the 6.6 environment whether you think upgrading into WM 6.5 will allow me to still use the BBerry Connect. has anybody tried upgrading a Rhodium and then try the BBerry?

RSACIPHER: I had same problem. could not change Model ID. What is Memmaid and how did that work?
Also
C0RNHOLIO: maybe you should look into why this is happening so that your solution works all the time. Mine is a T-Mobile Rhodium.
Thanks to both
And what about a HTC Rhodium with WM 6.5? Try it but didn't get it.

Are you able to have multiple data streams? Or does Blackberry Connect shutdown when another data stream is present and you have to restart it? I can't seem to get multiple data streams to function on any ROM even with some of the old tricks from the 8525 and Raphael....

I have been running BB on my TP2 on 6.1, 6.5 and 6.51 roms with Sense 2.1 and 2.5. They all work, and no, I cannot have multiple data streams so when I use the browser my BB connect shows no connection. If I disconnect data, sometimes BB automatically connects but generally I have to run BB connect, disconnect and reconnect (so I added a shortcut to it on my programs).
For me, using 6.51 and 2.1 gives the least trouble. I dont know why.
BTW I keep getting reminders that there is a new BB Desktop update (5.01).
good idea on adding the shortcut. I have found that it rarely reconnects and I had to turn off the auto update for the weather or I would start missing emails. I hope someone gets a fix for this soon as this is the perfect email phone...

I have two streams (BB & Contract Internet) running at the same time.
I am on UK Vodafone contract so that probably makes a difference

Having concurrent connections two 2 APNs simulatiously only works for GPRS (as far as I have observed on all my past and current devices).
So if you want to have BBC and Internet at the same time you need to switch to GPRS only and disable auto band switching for 3G. If anyone knows a way to get concurrent connections working on 3G, please post how.
EDIT: The infos in the follwing post should do the job:
