I just downloaded and upgraded to 4.5 - very easy - Thanks!

I have a BB 8700g from T-mobile. The only issue I am seeing since the upgrade is that the Esc Key is not recognized with Yahoo2Go application. That means that once a function is selected within Y2Go app, I am stuck there. I can exit the app using the thumbwheel. When I restart the app, I arrive at the same function that I last selected with no way back. I have re-booted the BB, as well as uninstalled and reinstalled Y2Go application. Any clues?

I've updated to 4.5.0.52 with success, after just one day of owning the device (8700g)

the only problem I'm having.. and i think I had it BEFORE updating.. is that after downloading a theme I can't find it in my themes.. I've read that I have to go to options/advanced opts/aplications/select theme/change permits/interact/permit
but then after taking out the batery it still doesn't show me the theme... sorry if i've posted this worng, but maybe somene is getting the same???

also.. can I use a theme meant for 4.2 in the 4.5 OS?? ther aren't many 4.5 themes yet are there?

John Clark · 07-25-2008, 01:25 AM

Some themes will work and some will not. It just depends on what platform is was built on.

k2myheart · 07-25-2008, 10:26 AM

Ohhh okay... That's not good!!
Sooo does anyone here has themes that work on the 8700g with 4.5.0.52????? And yes i KNOW that there are threads with lists.. But a couple of links that will load on this specific model and OS please??

Awwww pleaseeee??

Is this release a BETA or is it an actual release? When other carriers (ATT, etc.) release it, will it be a newer version?

Thanks,

Frank

It is officially released by this carrier. That is why it is posted here, with the information you see.

Any info on the missing internet browser for att users, guys?

dschonew · 07-25-2008, 08:17 PM

I am running 4.5.0.52 on an 8700G on T-Mobile and an 8700C on ATT. I have not experienced issues with the Browser on either of them. I have had several issues with my BB Messenger losing my contacts, and this is an ongoing issue.

fossiltkm · 07-25-2008, 08:27 PM

Well, I'm using an unlocked 8700g with att and once I upgraded to this OS, I have no internet browser. The wap browser this there, but no internet. It's a pain because I can't go to websites like mobile.blackberry.com. I just don't get it. I may have to go back to 4.2.

dschonew · 07-25-2008, 10:43 PM

Have you tried wiping out all of your service books and then resending them from the ATT website?

Yeah, I've done that a couple of times, but with no success.

I ran into this issue when I was running a beta of 4.5 on my 8700c (AT&T). I called the support line about my internet browser being missing, and the rep eventually forwarded me to a RIM tech support rep.

The rep noticed (remotely) that I was running 4.5, but was very helpful and spent about an hour trying to get the "Blackberry Internet Browsing Service [BrowserConfig]" service book onto my phone. At the end, he said that AT&T must have a filter in place to prevent the service book from reaching my 4.5 device (something that the companies can choose to do, and that he can't bypass).

I've noticed that almost all the complaints of "missing browser" are by people on AT&T, so this appears to affect just about everyone with 8700/4.5 on their network.

As a counterpoint, does _anyone_ with 8700/4.5/AT&T have an Internet Browser (not Cingular, but the HTML one) working on their phone?

Thanks for the info, Scott! I knew it just coudn't have been a "few" of us experiencing this issue. My question is, why just this blackberry model?

dts5.1 · 07-27-2008, 01:29 PM

I also lost my BB browser on my 8300 after installing 4.5...the media net browser is there though which is a shame because I don't use that one! Anyone here have any new suggestions besides the usuall advice to "re-send service books", "register the device" and/or "wipe and re-install os" ...none of that stuff is working guys!
