BlackBerry Master Control Program v0.9.1.1 official release

I’ve been using the beta version of this application, but it is now officially released and out of beta. One word to describe this application…awesome!

Is has everything you would ever need when it comes to maintaining your BlackBerry, from the basic Desktop Manager functionality to more advanced usage like using Java Loader commands and all that. If you check out the screenshot above, you can see exactly what is does and what it has.

From the changelog:

Beyond 0.9.1.0…

• Immediately after releasing 0.9.1.0 I noticed that RIM updated their BlackBerry JDE 4.7 Beta which includes a newer build of javaloader.exe.  The new exe has the same functionality, and probably uses the exact same code, it’s just a newer build.  Anyway, since I’ve already started teting it I’ve found the new automatic Java Loader verification to be very annoying, so I will add a check box to turn that feature on/off.  — Added in 0.9.1.1.
• In 0.9.0.7 I added this to the changelog:  “BBDevMgr.Exe vs Windows Hourglass – FIXED!”.  I also added a PIN timer in that build.  Hmm!  Now I am wondering if the hourglass workaround really works as expected and discussed.  I will check into this some more today. — I verified that everything along these lines seems to be working as expected in 0.9.1.0 and 0.9.1.1.

Changes in 0.9.1.1…

• MCP 0.9.1.1 now uses RIM Java Loader from the new BlackBerry JDE 4.7 Beta 2

The exe, txt and md5 will also be copied to the Binaries folder in case the path is different than the Java Loader folder.

• Java Loader version checking now downloads the exe, txt and md5 for Java Loader.

In 0.9.1.0 version checking was a little goofy.  Most of the version checking was based on the “Binaries” (folder) setting for external applications.  In 0.9.1.1 it is only checking the location specified for the Java Loader EXE.  The exe specified is checked.  If it doesn’t match, the correct EXE is downloaded to both the Java Loader folder and the Binaries folder in any case where these two fields point to different locations.

• Java Loader version checking is now 100% specific to the Java Loader EXE field in Settings

No real changes, but now we have to make sure all the commands still work. 

• Added Auto-Check Java Loader Version option to Settings page

If you decide to use an older version of Java Loader you can uncheck this option so MCP won’t bitch each time it starts.
