There is no official release of 4.5 for the 8830, just betas. I would wait until it is officially released, but that is just me.
What state is the device in? Does it load at all? is it stuck on a jvm 507 error?
Start with removing everything from the device :

Once it is wiped, try loading the most current officially released OS for your device:
