I'm trying to install bcharge for my Pearl 8100 but it keeps saying it isn't a perl when I run it. I found out (through lsusb) that my iProduct is actually 4 not 5. I tried changing the constant acordingly but it does not seem to modify the Max Power to 500mA instead of 100mA, even though there seem to be no error.

Here is the output I get after changing the constant to 4:

Code:

Scanning for Blackberry devices...
Found device #005...adjusting charge setting...adjusting Pearl mode to dual...done
