Hi,
Not offical relase. my bb 8820 BIS-B plan. I modified some lines code and http proxy support. jmIRC runs over RIm BIS-B data plan.. not required APN settings or TCP settings..
Could you provide this release anywhere? I have been having some disconnect issues, would love to try out any new build.
Same here, been having disconnect issues myself. Would be great if you could share your developments with the community so we can all benefit.
Did anyone get a response from him about this?
i need this BIS VERSION.! did anyone get it?
No seems like he made this post and vanished forever. I never got a copy.
Hi all, if you have BlackBerry and need BIS connectivity, please try to use the http://jmirc.sf.net/beta/jmIrc.jad version and report how it works.
Hi, I have tried the beta version, works fine on wifi, but when connecting via GPRS with orange, and having put in apn settings of blackberry.net - it comes up connection timed out. any ideas?
You don't have to modify the code. You should add this to profile settings:
IRC-SERVER-ADDRESS:6667;deviceside=false;connectionUID="CARRIER-UID";ConnectionType=mds-public";
port - leave blank
You should replace CARRIED-UID with UID specific for your carrier. Your UID can be obtained from Options-Advanced-ServiceBook-IPPP_BIBS.
It does work on 0.95, I had some troubles with SVN (beta).
Juhovh - please include this in SVN. I tried to recompile the source code, without success. I'm not the IT person, I'm a lawyer, this is just my hobby. I think there should be another option for UID, because the seems to be variable among different carriers.
It does work, but still I experience frequent disconnects, I suppose there is some kind of timeout in BIS. When I try to use socket poll, it won't work anymore. Perhaps Juhovh should use a different method to preserve the connection, like ping or something. Ping was used in "Bombus-mod".
Greetings from Poland, sorry for my english ;)
Both Beta 0.97 and 0.95 seem to disconnect me after 2 minutes on BIS. I suppose this explains something:

There should be some kind of ping function included.
