Wanted: Technical advice on Blackberry screensaver/wallpaper

9th February 2009

In October 2007, I posted in blackberryforums.com about looking for software solution to generate a screensaver - initially for Blackberry users, but potentially for users of other types of PDA as well.

That requirement has since been met by my Web site text2image.com.

I am still looking for adhoc technical help/advice concerning use of screensavers on BBs e.g. what size (pixels height/width) the image should be, how to download and deploy etc. To provide this help, ideally you should have:

  • Excellent English
  • Good knowledge of BB operating system and development on the BB platform.
  • Good experience of administering the BES (Blackberry Enterprise Server) .
  • Owned several BBs yourself.
  • Access to a full BES/BB setup so you can demonstrate and fully document the steps you describe.
  • The ability to turn around questions promptly (contact from me may be infrequent, but I want fast response).
  • Some knowledge of provision of BES services on non-BB devices e.g. other PDAs or mobile phones.

If you are interested and think you can help, best way is to contact me via email. You can see more about my company here. This is something that can easily be done part-time e.g. if your full-time job involves BB administration/development, you can fit this private work in on top.

Remuneration for your time completely negotiable. I will pay reasonable rates for good skills.
