I use a Blackberry 8700 – without a Blackberry data plan – just a regular data plan. Here’s how I installed Google Sync 0.4.6
- Install UserAgentSwitcher 0.6.11 into Firefox 3, and configure a user agent:
- Description="blackberry 8700"
- User Agent="BlackBerry8700/4.1.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/180"
- Tell Firefox to use the "blackberry 8700" user agent.
- Visit http://m.google.com/sync and download GoogleSync.jad
- You can open the .jad file with a text file. Inside it you'll find the URLs for the .cod (Blackberry's special modified .jar format). Download all 3:
- http://m.google.com/sync/apps/0.4.6/en/BlackBerry-41/GoogleSync_40_en.cod
- http://m.google.com/sync/apps/0.4.6/en/BlackBerry-41/GoogleSync_40_en-1.cod
- http://m.google.com/sync/apps/0.4.6/en/BlackBerry-41/GoogleSync_40_en-2.cod
- Install Blackberry Desktop 4.6.0 (if it isn't already installed).
- Install JDK 6u7 (if it isn't already installed).
- Copy the cod files (I also copied the .jad, but I didn't use it.) to "C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 4.6.0\bin"
- Open a command prompt in "C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 4.6.0\bin"
- Execute the following 3 commands:
- javaloader -usb load GoogleSync_40_en.cod
- javaloader -usb load GoogleSync_40_en-1.cod
- javaloader -usb load GoogleSync_40_en-2.cod
- Set your Firefox user agent back to "Default"!!!
- Run Google Sync on the Blackberry from the newly-added icon.
