BlackBerry 9360 Simulator7.0.0.594

Emulating physical devices through software programs provides the developers a clean environment where they can test applications with reduced costs.BlackBerry 9360 Simulator is such a tool, intended for the development of apps for the BlackBerry operating system.Its functionality requires additional files, which are offered for download during the installation process of the emulator.

Work with an exact copy of the real device

The main application window of the simulator is an exact replica of the BlackBerry 9360, complete with a keyboard and fit with the default apps, just like the real thing and navigating through all the menus is done using the mouse on the buttons on the device.Before loading up the app to be tested the simulator can be prepared to replicate a real device, with Internet connectivity along with other necessary customizations.Regardless of the modifications applied the emulated device can be reset to factory defaults, thus allowing the developer to start anew at any time, without too much hassle.

Simulation options

The functions included in the product allow snapping an image with the current state of the entire device or just the screen, which can be analyzed at a later time.Among the simulation options thee is the possibility to emulate the availability of a headset as well as tinker with camera-related options.Moreover, the program presents the possibility to alter the battery charge value and to simulate an incoming call that shows the caller ID and the fictitious number chosen by the user.

Finally

The BlackBerry 9360 may not be a popular device anymore but the simulator shows the minimum possibilities available for more recent phone models.It makes for an efficient and easy way to test mobile apps but the developer should take into consideration the difference in available resources between an actual device and the emulator.
