Upgrade to OS 7.1 on Curve 9360
 

Gave my son a new Curve 9360 for Xmas.He would like to upgrade the OS to 7.1.
On my Bold I always did updates by following the usual procedure (delete vendor.xml, launch apploader, etc....)
Point is, he hasn't installed Desktop Manager on his PC yet. How is the Apploader folder created ? Thru DM installation ? In other words, will he need to install DM before he can do an OS upgrade ?
Thanks.

Yes, he will need to install Desktop Manager to do the upgrade.

Unable to Upgrade to OS 7.1 on my Curve 9360
 

My 9360 is currently running 7.0 Bundle 2055 (v7.0.0.464 Platform 8.0.0.464).

I'd like to upgrade to v7.1 so I can test NFC. However, I don't seem to be able to do this as I did with previous Blackberry models / OS's.

Step 1: I downloaded "9360AllLang_PBr7.1.0_rel722_PL9.6.0.26_A7.1.0.219 _Bell_Mobility_Inc.exe" using a link I found on this site.

Note: My PC's operating system is Win7

Step 2: Ran the program after it downloaded. When this program finished, it told me to reboot my PC, which I did.

Step 4: Deleted "vendor.xml" from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader

Step 5: Ran Loader.exe from the same folder

Loader program showed me all my installed apps,
but said "No actions are required"

What's happening?

There are at least 2 vendor.xml files that need to be deleted in 7.1. Make sure you get ALL of them.
