hey bestie, welcome to the uberry(4) page — yes, the manual name is right here near the top, and we’re about to vibe-check a whole USB driver 💅✨

💖 NAME 💖

uberry — the USB driver for the RIM BlackBerry phones 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

uberry* at uhub? port ?

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the uberry driver is here to provide support for the original BlackBerry, the BlackBerry Pearl, the BlackBerry Pearl Duo, and other models. periodt. 👑

lowkey important: this is a stub driver. its whole vibe is that it only lets the device charge from the USB port. that’s it, that’s the job 🔌✨

and here’s the plot twist: if the uberry driver attaches to a device that has support for memory cards (such as the BlackBerry Pearl series), the uberry driver will detach, and the device will be re-attached using the umass(4) driver. not me switching drivers mid-story 😭💀

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

🌈 HISTORY 🌈

the uberry driver appeared in NetBSD 5.0. iconic behavior, honestly 💜
