New App: BBSAK (Swiss Army Knife) Beta! UPDATED v1.5 (8/18)
BBSAK BETA 1.5 RELEASED
This application is in the beta stages and we will continue to update as we release new versions. Just keep a watch on this thread. BB SAK was built as a JL Cmdr replacement tool with a more friendly GUI. It uses Javaloader to do its magic. I hope that you all will find it as useful as I do. Any thanks post there here in this thread. Also if you post on other sites please use the link provided here, so we can keep count of downloads.
Before we get into the details of v1.4 we want to thank everyone for spreading are app so quickly. We have big plans for the future of this app you can expect some big changes in the future (maybe not so near). Anyways onto the new version!

Hmmmmm...
An apps backup and reinstall button???? So then all is in one place and eliminate any possible issues with lost data, or confusion of the process. Just a thought...

I installed this tonight, and it's great! I have had connection issues occasionally with JL. JL reminds me when I learned to program code eons ago!

Thanks for the efforts however I cannot piece together what factory reset might do. "Removing IT policy" sounds ominous. Is there an user guide ?

What does this do for you? IT Policy is now removed. Firewall options are, once again, configurable. Software restrictions enforced by membership on a BES, such as Event Injection being disabled, will now be configurable. However, if you decide to complete this process to bypass your BES security, when you reactivate on your BES server, it will push those same policies and restrictions back to your device. This utility is useful for post-BES usage and/or selling a clean device without BES-enforced restrictions.

Good.
I will test it next time I have to wipe my Storm. :)

I used it this morning again and the first time I tried to wipe the phone it didn't do it. The prgress bar went all the way up to 100%, but everything was still on the phone. I did it again 10 min later and it worked like a charm.
A pop up confirmation, or notification when the wipe is done might be a nice addition if your still diddling with it.
