BlackBerry 10 MultiTool Documentation

Overview
BB10MT is a cross-platform command-line tool for BlackBerry 10 device manipulation, QNX6 filesystem operations, and autoloader management. Works on both Linux and Windows as an alternative to cap.exe.

Dependencies
BB10MT Depends on the following: libusb, liblzo and fuse on Linux and liblzo, libusb on Windows.

QNX6 Filesystem Operations

Mount QNX6 Image
./bb10mt qnx6 mount -i <image_file> -m <mountpoint> [-f] [-d]Options:

• -i: QNX6FS image file (required)
  
• -m: Mount point (required)
  
• -f: Run in foreground
  
• -d: Enable FUSE debug output (slow)
  

Compact QNX6 Image
./bb10mt qnx6 compact -i <image_file>Reduces image size by removing unused space.

Create QNX6 Filesystem
./bb10mt qnx6 mkfs -i <image_file> [-b blocks] [-n inodes] [-s block_size]Options:

• -b: Blocks count (default: 10240)
  
• -n: Inodes count (default: 1024)
  
• -s: Block size in bytes, multiple of 512 (default: 4096)
  

Check/Repair QNX6 Filesystem
./bb10mt qnx6 fsck -i <image_file> [-f]Options:

• -f: Fix errors automatically
  

QCFM Container Operations

Unpack Container
./bb10mt unpack --container <container_file>Extracts all files from a QCFM container.
