Hi,

I have an 8900, which came with BB Maps. However, it was 'all over the place', for lack of a better term - you couldn't enter addresses to search, the maps took an age to load and so on. Anyway, I thought I'd delete the whole thing, and reinstall it via the BB site for free, only to get a message saying that my device doesn't support it, despite only just getting rid of it! I'm not sure, but is this due to my being with Orange? I think I read that this may be the issue.

Any advice appreciated. Google Maps is fine anyway, but I I would like BB maps as well if poss. (again ).

You need to reinstall it using the desktop manager and a firmware update file

Erm, OK - help! How'd I do that?

Can anyone help out with this one pls?

download the OS that is on your phone from here:

Then, open desktop manager.
go to add/remove programs.
let it find itself etc.
Then it will show a list of what is installed on your phone.
Those with check marks are installed.
Check mark BB maps.
click next etc and it will install it.

No worries, I've sorted it now cheers.
