34 bjavaloader is a tool for loading, listing, and deleting applications
35 on a BlackBerry device. It has a few other features as well, not per‐
36 taining to application management. The command syntax is intentionally
37 similar to the Windows program 'javaloader.exe' provided by Research In
38 Motion, in order to make it easy to use the same build scripts on Linux
39 and Windows.
40
42 -A Used with the 'save' command to save all available modules.
43 -a Used with the 'wipe' command to only wipe the applications.
45 -i Used with the 'wipe' command to only wipe the filesystem.
47 -f Used with the 'erase' command to force the erasure of an appli‐
49 cation that is currently in use in the device. Experimental.
50 -h Display a command help summary.
52 -s When using the 'dir' command, list the submodules as well.
54 -p pin Specifies the PIN number of the device with which you wish to
56 communicate, when multiple devices are connected.
57 -P password
59 A simplistic method to specify the device password.
60 -v Verbose debug output. This enables dumping of USB bus scanning,
62 as well as the protocol packets used during communication.
63
66 dir [-s]
67 Fetch a list of all applications and display them on stdout.
68 When used with the -s option, submodules are included, and can
69 take a long time to display.
70 deviceinfo
72 Provides information on the handheld.
73 load <.cod filename> ...
75 Loads one or more COD application files into the device.
76 save [-A] <module name> ...
78 Retrieves modules from the handheld and writes them to .cod
79 files with the same name as the module. Note that this will
80 overwrite any existing .cod file in the current directory. If
81 the -A option is specified, a dir will be done internally, and
82 all available modules will be saved.
83 wipe [-a | -i]
85 Wipes the handheld, removing all data such as messages, con‐
86 tacts, etc. and/or all .cod files, including OS .cod files. By
87 default, with no options specified, both applications and data
88 are wiped. Use the switches to specify only applications or
89 data.
90 erase [-f] <module name> ...
92 Delete the specified application module(s). The module name can
93 be determined using the 'dir' command. When used with the -f
94 option, the module is erased even if in use, and the device will
95 be reset.
96 eventlog
98 Retrives the handheld event log and prints it on stdout.
99 cleareventlog
101 Clears the handheld event log.
102 logstacktraces
104 Dumps the stack traces for all threads into the event log, which
105 can then be viewed with the 'eventlog' command.
106 screenshot <.bmp filename>
108 Capture current screen image and save in BMP format.
109 settime [yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS]
111 Sets the time on the handheld to the current time, or the speci‐
112 fied time. If time is given as an argument, the current system
113 timezone is assumed.

117 bjavaloader was initially written for the Barry project by Nicolas
118 Vivien, with additional contributions from others over time. This
119 manual page was written by Chris Frey.
