Meterberry v2.03 Review
Meterberry v2.03 Review
RaT Rating = 96.91%
Meterberry is a diagnostic application that is very useful in so many ways. It monitors your memory, battery, signal strength, and temperature of your phone. It also has an option to reset your device. I find this very option useful so that I don’t have to take off my case and battery cover to pull the battery physically. Another option is to Recover Memory, I will talk about this option a little later on in the review.
The file size is under 180kb which is very small for the amount that the application offers.
The processing speed of the application is very good, there isn’t that much to be rendered throughout the application.
There is little to no memory consumption with Meterberry.
Meterberry does not put much strain on the battery, if any.
The graphic user interface (GUI) isn’t that impressive and there isn’t that much graphics with the application at all besides the various icon choices for your home screen.
The application is a little buggy because there is an option within the application to “recover memory” and sometimes when you use that option, you actually lose more memory.
The application comes with a touch screen version for the storm1 and storm2. The touch screen is very accurate and I have had no issues at all with using it. There is also a non-touch screen version for users with a QWERTY keyboard.
It doesn’t appear to use memory so it doesn’t need to free memory when it’s closed. Another thing is the app runs every 15, 30, 45, or 60 mins to log information.
The application does what it says it does.
The application is very easy to navigate.
The load time on the application is very fast and there is no delay at all.
There are many different options to do many different things with the application. You can set the home screen icon to change every couple seconds (10, 20, or 30 seconds). You can choose either Fahrenheit or Celsius and if the temperature gets over a certain degree it notifies you. It monitors your application memory and if it goes below a certain MB, it notifies you. Has an option to recover memory hourly when the phone is idle. You have three logs to monitor battery, memory, temperature, and signal. You can also choose how often the logs update (15, 30, 45, or 60 mins). Clear the logs on startup or clear the logs when the phone is idle for an hour. There is an option to reset your device (soft reset) and you can also set the device to reset at a certain time every day. There is two different kinds of reset modes. You can set the signal to be monitored in dBm or bars.
When you press the Blackberry Button, it responds right away and brings up a short menu of choices.
This application does not need data to run. The only thing you need data for is to download the application.
This application does run in the background but does not show up on the application list (when u hold down your BB button).
Here is the graph of the RaT (Review and Testing) for this application our points and the wieghted grading that we have calculated. We are hoping this becomes a very accurrate meathod for reviewing apps of all kinds.

So in comparison to Quick Pull what would you prefer to use? And that ‘recover memory’ that was mentioned, can that be disabled?

I would choose this over quick pull because meterberry tells you so much more. Recover memory is an option that you don’t have to use.
