BlackBerry Forums Support Community - Funambol 3.0.7 jad file

I decided not to use the Funambol client (too slow) but when I was trying it I wrote a .jad file so I could install it directly from my SD card (I don't do Windows). Since I'm sure others will appreciate it, here is that .jad file:

Code:

MIDlet-Name: Funambol

MIDlet-Version: 3.0.7

MIDlet-Vendor: Copyright (c) 2006 MyCompany

MIDlet-Description: Funambol SyncML Synchronization Client for the BlackBerry device

MIDlet-Jar-Size: 225183

RIM-COD-Module-Dependencies: net_rim_cldc,net_rim_os

RIM-COD-URL-1: funambol_blackberry_plugin.cod

RIM-COD-Size-1: 90256

RIM-COD-URL-2: funambol_blackberry_plugin-1.cod

RIM-COD-Size-2: 27476

To make this .jad file work you must first unzip the .cod file that comes with funambol-blackberry-plugin-3.0.7.zip. Inside the .cod are two (real) .cod files named "funambol_blackberry_plugin.cod" (which is the same exact name as the .cod zip archive) and "funambol_blackberry_plugin-1.cod". What I recommend is that you unzip those two .cod files to a new location, copy the original .cod zip archive file out of the bin directory, and then copy the real .cod files back into the bin dir.

So when you're done with these operations (unzipping the .cod files and creating the .jad) the bin directory should look like this:

Code:

~$ ls -l /media/sdc1/Funambol/plug-ins/Funambol\ BlackBerry\ Plug-in/bin/

total 704

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev  27476 2006-08-29 11:29 funambol_blackberry_plugin-1.cod

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev    501 2006-08-11 18:50 funambol_blackberry_plugin.alx

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev  90256 2006-08-29 11:29 funambol_blackberry_plugin.cod

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev     91 2006-08-29 10:43 funambol_blackberry_plugin.csl

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev    183 2006-08-29 10:43 funambol_blackberry_plugin.cso

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev 196976 2006-08-29 10:43 funambol_blackberry_plugin.debug

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev    387 2007-11-12 14:56 funambol_blackberry_plugin.jad

-rw-rw---- 1 ivman plugdev 225183 2006-08-29 10:43 funambol_blackberry_plugin.jar

Then you can copy that bin directory to your Blackberry's SD card and use the Media application to install the app (just open the .jad file). Now that you know how I did it, feel free to download this zip file. It contains the Funambol bin directory already pre-setup with the uncompressed .cod files and the .jad file.

FYI: I'm also going to post this in the Ubuntu Forums under that How to sync your blackberry in Linux thread.
