BlackBerry 8520 Simulator is an intuitive program developed in order to allow you to test your BlackBerry apps on your computer, without having to install them on an actual device.This software solution replicates the appearance and behavior of a BlackBerry, including everything from buttons, menus and screen to sample images and capabilities.It is, in more common terms, a testing environment for apps designed specifically for this type of smartphones, but without running the risk of permanently damaging it due to faulty settings or incompatibilities.BlackBerry 8520 Simulator can be controlled using your mouse and keyboard to press the buttons, and since the real device does not have a touch screen, any clicks you make in that area will have to response. The mouse button and scroll, along with the keyboard arrows and the 'Enter' key are probably the most efficient instruments in controlling the virtual phone.You can add contacts, explore the media files on the virtual device, such as pictures, videos or audio files. You also have the option of creating calendar entries or writing and email. Similarly, you can simulate sending a text message, making a phone call or receiving one. You can even mimic taking pictures or recording videos with the device, using a connected webcam, but there are many other options as to what you can do with BlackBerry 8520 Simulator.This utility is mainly designed for developers, who wish to try out a newly created application for BlackBerry devices, in a variety of circumstances, and figure out what are the possible errors or how can the app fail to function. At the same time, BlackBerry 8520 Simulator can prove quite helpful if you want to install a new app on your real device, but do not want to risk its safety. This way, you can run it and see how it would behave, then decide if it is worth installing on your BlackBerry or not.To summarize, BlackBerry 8520 Simulator is an interesting and useful piece of software, that aims to help BlackBerry app developers as well as regular people test programs on a compatible platform.
