sorry guys I did the search and have not found anything about why it is still trying to upgrade something that is already upgraded

Just run through the application loader all the way and see what it wants to re-upgrade. In my case, it didn't change any files but running all the way through the process stopped the popup messages.

ive ran all the way through but still get it and the only thing that it is trying to up date now over and over is,

Blackberry 4.5.0 core applications
Basque Language support
Password Keeper

And if you do a search of this you'll find that you need to delete the .cod's that have ".eu" in them. It's trying to install Basque language stuff. If you delete those .cod files it will quit.

can you please post me a link to that topic

It's right in this thread.

ok fixed it now that it is at the new os and not retrying to upgrade what is already upgraded, in the voice note recorder when i try to play back a recording i get " The media being played is off an unsupported format " any idea how to fix that.

is there improvement in battery life, over the beta 4.5s?

hello everyone again. My OS 4.5 working like a charm, small issues though. Videos I take with phone, I email them to my home email, and cannot open. Should I download the converter to pc to view them?

also, some email attachments like .bmp files wont open either, any solutions for that at all?

thank you

Mine doesnt seem to last nearly as long, I asked about this earlier but didnt get a response.

Will doing an OS upgrade lock my unlocked device?

No, your BB will never be locked again.

Haha okay good because the installation process is almost finished!

No, DM does not have to be installed to use BES. I activate most of our users via the server and never have to install DM on their client.

still waiting for some help on how to fix problems. I installed the upgraded os 4.5.0.55 (81). only problems are as follows

1. Voice notes, when you try to play back it give you a message that reads " The media being played is of an unsupported format. "

Ok I just upgraded my OS and im just wondering what I can do now that I couldnt do before/ what upgrades have been made?

I moved your post to the proper thread. Your answers are probably here, as well.

Thanks :P

Hey guys,

Just to let you know that I was able to fix the Voice notes problem, when you try to play back it give you a message that reads " The media being played is of an unsupported format. "

How I was able to fix it was I told my blackberry to wipe handheld include all 3rd party software, once it rebooted I follwed the set up again. doing it this way it kept the new os of 4.5.0.55 but fixed the voice recorder to be able to play back. Note doing this you will have to resetup some stuff on your blackberry, like I had to redownload the att version of telenav and PTT had to be reactivated.

I just downloaded v4.5.0.55, Platform 2.7.0.68 and read that Documents To Go was suppose to be with 4.5 OS. Is this correct, because I do not see it on my 8310. Thanks for the help....

Welcome to the forums.

Plug in the device to the PC, run Desktop Manager and open Application Loader. Make sure that Documents to Go is checked in the box. Then, sometimes, Documents To Go gets it's own folder on the home screen. If there is a folder then the apps should be in the folder.

Went to Add/Remove Applications and there were no applications there.

You said you installed OS 4.5 on your 8310, though. How did you install it if the apps aren't there? What does it say on your BB in Options >About?

It says v4.5.0.55 (Platform 2.7.0.68) and has several Micro Editions listed. I am also running DM v4.5. I don't get it....You would think there would be something listed?

My upgrade seems to be stuck on:

"Retrieving module "tn_rim_51_global_resources.cod"
"Retrieving wirelessly delivered application modules"

Have I screwed it up? What should I do. Wait longer?

Anybody? Help!

I've seen this before. Just unplug, reboot the BB and the PC and try again. It hasn't made any changes to the device yet.

worked!

THANKS!!!!!

Hey boys and girls, new to the thread. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I had (past tense) significant issues with the install dying and leaving me with a 561/3/07..etc. AFTER wiping the device;i.e. I was left with a door stopper.

After read all ten pages of this thread, I found a link to use the loader.exe from DOS. Well that failed too. Finally, read the first line of "What to do next if Jl Cmder will not connect and wipe" and found the issue. I had (and always have) connected to my PC via USB hub. That was the issue. I connected directly to the ports on my MB and Viola!!!!!!!!! it worked. Time to have some fun.

Anyway, for those that had the 561/507 issues, make sure you're not connecting via hub.

Ciao!

Thanks for the info. Yup, hubs and Blackberrys don't mix.

I did the upgrade about 3 days ago and I noticed that i don't seem to get GPRS connection anymore just EDGE. From what I read in the FAQ the EDGE connection is a faster (better?) connection. Could this be a result of the OS upgrade or changes on the Rogers network?

Most likely it's a change on the network that just happens to coincide with loading the new OS. GPRS to EDGE is a network upgrade.

I'm a little scared to update my Blackberry to the OS4.5 because what if something happens and my phone doesn't work.
My question is.....let's say that I download the new firmware and install it and everything. If I do not want it anymore or if I notice that something is wrong, would I be able to go to the General Settings and select the WIPE HANDHELD and would that bring me back to the factory settings, and back to OS4.2?

You can roll back, but it's not that simple. You have to "downgrade." It's just as simple as the upgrade, though. Simply uninstall the upgraded version in Add/Remove Programs and install the version you want.

Thank you very much.

Also, before upgrading to the OS4.5, do I HAVE TO backup my information on my phone, such as appointments and such on the calendar, contacts, etc. or do they transfer to the new OS?

If I have to back them up, is there a quick way to do it or how would I go about this?

The upgrade process does all that automatically.

Just follow the instructions in the first post and all should be well.

I am just in the process of upgrading to OS4.5 and it has a warning that reads: "After completing the loading operation, you must activate your device wirelessly to continue to send and receive messages and use other Blackberry services".

What does this mean? How am I to active my device afterwards?


Also, is there a way I can copy and/or save some of the preloaded images on my BB before upgrading and deleting them?

That warning is if you are on a BES system. You will have to reactivate after that. If you are just using BIS, then no need to worry about it.

You can't keep "some" of the images. it's all or nothing. I recommend removing them and just use a photo taken with your BB or something. However, if you MUST have them, here's a link:

Thank you very much for all of your help. Just one more quick question (I promise) lol. What is the difference between BES and BIS? What is that?

Is BES like business enterprise thing and BIS just regular phone carriers, like ATT?

Yes, BES is Blackberry Enterprise Server. Mostly corporations use this. If you just went to the ATT store and picked up a Blackberry and subscribed to a data plan then you are on BIS. If you received a Blackberry from your company and they setup your company email on it, most likely you are on a BES.
