First, make the following settings:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
Settings → About → Device Name | Any name you want to give your device. |
Settings → Storage and Access → Access Using Wifi | Turn on. |
Change Wifi Password | Any password for your device. |
Settings → Storage and Access → Identification on Network → Identity → WorkGroup | You can change the workgroup here but the value WORKGROUP is usually the default. |
Settings → Storage and Access → Identification on Network → Identity → Username | You can leave the default BlackBerry or enter the username. |
You can mount the BlackBerry filesystem over Samba using various methods:
mount -t cifs -o username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD //blackberry.dev /mnt/blackberry
where:
USERNAME is the username that you must use to access the BlackBerry.PASSWORD must be replace with your device password.blackberry.dev is the hostname or IP address of the BlackBerry device./mnt/blackberry is the path to a local mount-point where the filesystem will be mounted.
This can be performed on all operating systems provided that they have cifs filesystem support.
