Try as I might, I can't get the Desktop Manager 4.5 to prompt for an update... It just opens up with no indication of a newer OS version. I deleted the vendor.xml file so I don't know what the problem is...
Any ideas?
(BTW I have the .52 beta installed on my curve right now)

The latest version is 4.5.0.52, right?

But if you still aren't getting prompted, just click on the Application Loader and do it manually.

Thanks for the reply. I decided to use javaloader to wipe it and install the non beta .52.

I would not be too concerned, unless if it continues to do so repetitively. Give it 24 hours to see.

Is it mandatory to download the hotfix or the service packs? Would this help the glitch?

If you're loading to a TMo device you can leave as is. It will load the myfaves and the themes. In order to NOT have them loaded to the device you need to remove the .cod(s) from the java folder.
Generally, the reason for removing vendor ID's is to get themes to load where they otherwise won't. Sometimes an ATT user likes the TMo theme or another theme. That's why I state in my post to remove ALL the vendor ID's and then remove the .cod's from the java folder that they DON'T want.

After a successful install I've noticed that I now have two icons for T-Zones (T-Mobile WAP browser). Is there a way to delete one of them?

Everything seems to be running smooth with my tmo 8320. After pulling the battery after the install and removing bb maps I am back up to 22.7mb free. I was 25 before the install. 19mb right after. The really cool precision 9000 theme doesn't format correctly on the applications screen. bPhone works well though.

If you have more than one email address configured to the BB,
Go to your Options > Advanced > Default Services. Make sure your correct email connected calendar is selected there.

This one is a memory hog. I woke up to 10MB free memory on my 8320. Rebooted it and back up to 16MB. That's just overnight since I rebooted it a time or two the evening before while I was messing with it.
[Edit] And while sending myself a voicemail to get rid of the voicemail waiting indicator icon that seems to appear after any reboot (even when there are no voicemails), my phone rebooted itself. Not looking good for 4.5.0.75/4.5.0.52 so far. :P

T-Mo says that this release is not ready yet and they are still testing.
Not for me yet.

Yeah, I'm thinking of dropping back down to 4.2 tonight. This 4.5 version worked great yesterday with tons of IM'ing and emails, but today it just seems to be falling down in other areas.

I'm on TMO. I DL'd this yesterday. Removed all the unwanted stuff following JC's instructions. Works great. No issues. Got just over 24mb memory free.
I may reload just to see what the other themes look like.

I am interested in what Bell and the Sprint themes look like. I know all the others already.

I think tonight I will reload this OS back onto my device but not unlock all the other vendor themes. None of them really catch my fancy and they're just burning up space.

Typically I only keep the Tmo UK, TIM Italy and the TMO blue. I agree, the other one's (at least for me) are waste of space.

When I first got my BB I installed every single theme, and was pretty disappointed in most of them. I liked Tmobile's the most. But really I'm so boring as I get older that I'm using BB Dimension L with a custom background and never switch it.

I will use another theme for a while but I always seem to go back to the T-Mobile Zen theme after a while.
I wonder if I can set to other default themes that install normally to not install through some editing of the BlackBerry.alx file? This would free up even more memory.
Something to mess with tonight.

If I had the BB Dimension L, I probably wouldn't switch much
BTW- Is the L theme loaded with 4.5 OS?

For what its worth, just in case there are mac users out there wondering if they can upgrade. I successfully upgraded my 8320 on at&t via a macbook pro running windows xp on parallels. Took about 45 minutes. Works great, now if I can only get Blackberry Maps to work. Finally, both jivetalk, Google maps & yahoo go worked on 4.5

Bug with soft reset and this OS -
07-18-2008, 11:49 PM
I am getting the following message when I tried to use soft reset after this upgrade, "Uncaught exception:javalang.illegalArgumentException"
Has anyone noticed this using this OS of any OS 4.5?
