Brewsky 8900 - Easy to use ring tone/wallpaper manager for Audiovox 8900

[DocBC28]

has anyone tested this software with Audiovox 8900 with TELUS??? I just want to make sure it'll work for me before I buy a data cable. Thx

Great tool man! This is SO much easier than what I was doing before. So what's next on your adgenda? Screen Savers? Are games possible? What about other hacks?

Please keep me on you list to notify when you update or make additions to Brewsky 8900... Thanks!

does anybody know if the cdm 8900 is able to display Jpgs? or can it just display bmps and pngs?

btw exellent work gnarkill, has a few bugs : it would be nice if it was able to sort the files by names when you click on the file row or the size, and when i click on the "File Browser:" tab nothing happends, also it would be nice if you can maximize the window for extended file viewing.

**edit**
nm i found a great app that can massivly convert jpgs to png (its called Batch Convert Images if anyone is interested )

Yes!!!

that is if you are referring to the Images that you upload. The camera pics are also saved as jpg and the camera thumbnails are bmp.

I just tried Brewsky on a Telus CDM8900.
It appears to find my phone on COM6 - at least it shows the port as being open - but none of the functions work:
The "refresh cell list" button shows the the download progress window but it just sits there and does nothing.
The Ringtones tab shows the default "Buddy Holly" MP3 but when I press the "Upload ringtones" button, the upload progress window just sits there and does nothing.
Similarly the Wallpapers tab does not allow me to upload even the default. The "Get Camera Pics" tab does not list the pictures on the camera and the File Browser tab doesn't appear to do anything at all.
A proper HELP function would be really helpful for this software.

Yes, it displays most common image formats, such as: (jpg, bmp, and png) I have not gotten it to recognize GIF files (with Brewsky 8900), but I bet that it is the format used for animations.

(JPG) should be the primary choice since it is usually the most compressed (smallest file size) for high resolution images. (BMP) is probably the least choice since it is a raw Bitmap file (largest file size). I do not know much about (PNG) files or it's compression capability, other than often used in Macromedia and Linux graphic generators to display bar graphs. (such as webstats)

Most graphic programs convert between all of the above formats. I mostly use PaintShop Pro and LViewPro for my conversion and enhancement (cropping and color/brightness correction) If you need a copy of either, I will send the link on my server.

It appears that I am having the same luck as some of the other folks who have downloaded and installed this program.

How can I get it to work?

looks like a great tool, feeling stupid because i have no idea how to use it....any ideas?

Brewsky 8900 1.01 great for uploading Ring Tones. Like others, I am having problems with uploading Wallpaper. Brewsky reports that the Wallpaper is in phone memory, but does not appear on any menu on the phone. So where did it go, and can we reverse the process?

Thanks.
