[BlackBerry] Mapping Vendor ID to Vendor Name (Updated on 9/20/2011)

To whom that want to know the vendor name of your BB,

First of all, you need to find out the vendor id. On the QWERTY keyboard, press Alt + Shift + H and check the line Vendor ID.

I decided to build my own script to extract the list of vendor name of BB after an hour searching that information for my BB. I extracted the following list from file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\Vendor.xml". The path may be different in your computer. I use Windows 7 64-bit.

import sys
import os
from xml.etree.ElementTree import ElementTree

VENDOR_FILE = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\Vendor.xml'

def main():
    tree = ElementTree()
    tree.parse(VENDOR_FILE)
    d = {}
    for vendor in tree.iter('vendor'):
        d[int(vendor.attrib['id'], 16)] = vendor.attrib['Name']
    for id in sorted(d):
        print '%d\t%x\t%s' % (id, id, d[id])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(main())
