Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I did get rid of some additonal apps.

I deleted all the messengers and installed JiveTalk/BeeJive instead. I also got rid of sudoko and avantgo as I rarely use these two anyway. I could probably delete the help app and brickbreaker as well.

After deleting all these apps I was at around 16MB. By the way... I have a 2GB media card and no pictures on the device.

Another question... with the new OS I also installed the German language pack. How much memory would that eat up?

Languages do use up extra memory. Not sure exactly. You'd have to look in the application loader. You can also check database sizes by going to Options >Status >menu key >database sizes.

Actually, we figured out a workaround. Here's what's happening:

The Google Maps ALX file checks the version of your BlackBerry OS so that it can install the appropriate version of Google Maps.

The problem is that the three different versions of Google Maps all have the same internal name and so the BES is unable to differentiate between the three different versions. Renaming the file makes no difference as the name is internal.

Two workarounds:

1. If you're only trying to deploy to one of the three BlackBerry OSes, delete the two other directories (e.g. BlackBerry-40).

2. Create three different shares, putting one version in each share.

But this is something that the BES admin has to do. If you have an open application control policy (like I do) I can add any 3rd party apps I want to except Google Maps 2.0 and higer. There is no way to install it on my end.

Is anyone having issues with voicenotes in Blackberry Messenger? I can receive them from others but when I record my own and go to send, it is a blank message. Any fix to this? I tried scrolling this thread but couldn't really find any voice note issues in BBM.

Also, if I try to record a voice note simply by Media >Voice Notes. Same thing. Nothing gets recorded.

Good looking out whoever can help.

This is probably the problem. Where in the BES can I check to see if there is an Application Control Policy on my account?

Thank you.

You can't check. You'd have to talk to your BES Admin about it.

I was the bes admin years ago in the 3.x versions. Our current BES admin doesn't know, and the interface is substantially different then when I used to use it.

Is the setting located somewhere in the IT Policy?

Honestly, I have no idea. I'm not a BES Admin.

Ok, I found it. You need to highlight the group in the left pane and click the group config tab in the right. Then expand the device management menu and select Assign Software Configuration. I chose <none> and google maps started working! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

As of last night (before today's change), a new problem started for me with this version though... Whenever I try to open the blackberry browser, I get an error that says "Uncaught exception; invisible node cannot be made current."

I am going to try to reinstall and see if it goes away.

Something else I noticed. I'm sure this has come up before but I was unable to find anything about it.

Before upgrading to 4.5. whenever I would delete an email from my device I had the option to delete that particular email just from my device or from the server. Actually, I can't remember if it said "delete from server" but it would place that email in my trash folder on the server. (My tmo.blackberry.net account was an exception of course.)

When I delete an email now, all I can do is delete that email from my device but it will still remain in my inbox on the server.

Is this a setting that I can enable or disable or is this how it's going to be from now on?

Hey guys, Im kind of freakin out here. I installed the new OS last night and everything seemed fine until just now at work. My phone is continuously resetting. I tried doing a battery pull a few times, but no luck. As soon as the phone boots up and connects to EDGE, it resets again. Is this a known issue? If so what can I do to fix it?

Not a known issue... EXCEPT if you have a Media Card in your BB, which was formerly formatted under OS 4.2
Do you?

Messages > Options > Email Reconcile. Choose your settings for each email address.

Open one of the email in question. Scroll up into the headers. Does it say "Recieved Using: Unknown?" If so, resend your service books. If it says "Recieved Using: your email address" then you need to go in to Messages >Options >Email Reconciliation and set it to "Prompt" for the account in question.

Yepp, you got it. Took out the media card and she's back to normal. Thanks a ton!

So, is there anything I can do with my media card that wouldn't result in me losing all my data on it?

**scratch that, read the link you supplied.**

Thanks alot man, you're a life saver!

HEY, you are getting good at this game!

Thanks to both you JC and JS! It's true... you learn something new every day!
