Instructions for installing on ANY 8320 (regardless of carrier)

1. Make sure you have Desktop Manager 4.2 SP2 or higher installed.
2. Download the above file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the OS file you downloaded.
3. Locate the vendor.xml file and delete it. It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
4. Plug in BB and Open Desktop Manager. You should be prompted to upgrade.
The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how much data you have to backup and restore during the process. Once it's done loading the new OS it will reboot (it may do this twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with an hourglass for up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization."
If you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply connect to DM again and run application loader again and it should load the OS to the device.

sweet. thanks

Just Curious.. How is this one compared to 4.5.0.81/4.5.0.55 ? ? Anything new changes? Does it run smooth like 4.5.0.81/4.5.0.55?

I've never seen that version.

"Instructions for installing on ANY 8820" shouldn't it be 8320?

Funny thing just happened when trying to find my latest version via handheld. The ABOUT is not working. I hooked my phone up to the PC and found out I'm running 4.5.0.52.

What does it mean that it says (EastAsia) do i have to be around there for it to work?

Just have a 8320 that im trying to upgrade.

If you used John Clarks memory optimization thread to remove voice dialing (VAD) then the about will not work. You can always just Alt EACE to see what version you have.

I'm not liking this new update.. i have never ever had any problems loading previous ones but this one is being a pain!

Yes, a typo, corrected.

No. The OS doesn't care where you are located.

And it won't even know.

Got a quick question...

When using JL_Cmder to wipe my phone.. I cant do it with the battery out cause it wont connect.. is it still the same wipe when i do it with the battery in and the phone on?

Yes, if it will do it that way, do it.

Sometimes according to whatever circumstances, the battery needs to be in or out. There is nothing wrong trying it either way if it doesn't work the first way.

Well okay.. For example.. I use a password lock on my phone and after i wiped and installed the new O.S. my same password still exists. So it didn't completely wipe my phone.

Are you connected to the DM?

Did it do any restore from the previous?

Here is what i did.. I used JL_Cmder and wiped my phone.. Showed the 507 error like so. Then i open DM and went to Application loader and connected my device and the install thing popped up so i chose my apps and what i wanted installed and installed the new os. Took awhile to boot up then finally but it came to the locked screen.. where i had to use my same password as the previous O.S. understandable?

hahahahhahaha, gave me morning laugh..

I will try this OS when I get home tonight.

Installing now...

No, I do understand. But I don't know why.

If it came up to the error 507 screen (no OS) you can pretty much bet it was wiped.

Let's see what another here might say.

I will try it too, for the brave ones could you please report on UMA, VM icon, available memory, and other aspects after you have completed the download.

So wiping a blackberry is like formatting a hard drive.. correct?

Yep, that is my understanding. However, not being a Win OS, there could be some difference in what exactly occurs, but it is the basic equivalent.

Anyone have a list of changes/differences between this and 4.5.0.81/4.5.0.55 yet?

nope, there is no list.

Right on John Clark!!!! Updating now...

Updating now as well.

Thank you Sir!

I don't sync with Desktop Manager because I have an iMac.
Can I still do this update? How do I go about it?
TIA.

On a Mac, you have two choices:

1. Find a friend with a PC and install DM there.
2. Run windows in parallels or whatever and install DM.

Me too, the DL is slow a bunch of people must be downloading. Hope it improves battery life, and fixes UMA to EDGE handoff, also hope it plugs the huge memory leak as well.

Looks nice!

I was running a fairly close version, so don't think it will change much for me, but it's always nice having the newest OS

I just did JC's memory mod and I am installing this now.

Will be upgrading to this on Saturday when I can get my hands on a Windows machine.

I will probably change from
8320EastAsia_PBr4.5.0_rel81_PL2.7.0.68_A4.5.0.55_I ndosat
to
8320EastAsia_PBr4.5.0_rel108_PL2.7.0.78_A4.5.0.81_ Voda_Australia
tonight

Thanks for the update, just downloaded, installed, updated and activated with no issues.

we are blazing

I notice that the memory has improved dramatically. It is nearly double of my Blackberry memory. I am really impressed with the latest version!

Is it possible to add a language support from an older build to this one? In this case, what are the files needed so that i can copy these to the java directory?

There are ways to do that, I have not.

There are some threads here explaining how, with moving the files from one java folder to the new, and editing or creating an alx file to cause the install.

But again, I have not done it. I just stick to the one language I am still learning.

Anybody have a list of fixes, as I'm really curious to see what they fixed. Memory is alot better, battery life is still IFFY...... UMA to EDGE is greatly improved, and the device doesnt seem to lag as much anymore. Been running it for 5 hours now, and lost 10% of battery.... Havent talked on phone either for more that 15 minutes.

I'll install this when I get home from work! :D

oh hell yeah! you can turn the light on for recording video in the dark! thank you!
