BlackBerry accounts

This section describes how to set up a user on the BlackBerry device or simulator. You must first set up an account in Mobile Web Studio as described in “Mobile Web Studio accounts”, and then send the following information to the BlackBerry user:

• User name

• Password (generated when you create the Mobile Web Studio account; such as Kp17kjo5.)

• Resource ID, such as 21

• UA server name, such as lab2k.sybase.com

• Port number, such as 4040 or 8080

• MDS/TCP – by default, the BlackBerry device is configured for an MDS connection. If your environment uses a TCP connection, inform the user to configure TCP on the BlackBerry device.

The BlackBerry user then must set up a profile on the BlackBerry device, using the Profile option on the trackwheel menu.

Setting up a user on BlackBerry device or simulator

1. Make sure the BlackBerry offline client is running on the device. You should see the Unwired Accelerator icon in the application menu. If you do not, see “Installing the UA offline client” for information about installing the offline client.

2. Select the Profiles option on the trackwheel menu.

3. Select the New Profile option from the trackwheel menu.

4. On the New Profile screen, enter the profile name, user name, password, resource ID, server name and domain, and port number. This example uses the masuper/m8super account.

   • Profile Name – the profile name for the account, such as mwsAdmin.

   • Username – the account user name, such as masuper.

   • Password – the account password, such as m8super.

   • Resource id – the default resource identifier (RID) for the account, such as 21 for Unwired Accelerator.

   • Server name – the server and domain on which Unwired Accelerator is running, such as lab2k.sybase.com.

   • Port number – the port used to access Unwired Accelerator, such as 4040 or 8080.

5. Select Save from the trackwheel menu, and save the settings.

6. Highlight the new profile, and select Set as Active from the trackwheel menu to make the profile active.

7. Return to the Unwired Accelerator screen.

   Once you use Mobile Web Studio to create mobile applications, and synchronize, you see the applications on the mobile device.
