Hey everyone,

So ...I'm upgrading my OS on my 8310 and I'm kind of stuck. Can somebody explain what these are and if I should choose to install them?

BlackBerry MDS Runtime
BlackBerry S/MIME Support Package
DOD Root Certificates
Phone -> TTY Support

There searches on the message forum here aren't really turning up good detail.

Thanks a lot.

I don't load any of those in my OS upgrades.

If JSanders doesn't - then Norsemen isn't going to either! ; )

Thanks!

I actually finished installing and did install all of them ...but now it's acting funny. Well ...I'll reinstall on Monday ...it'll give me something fun to do.

I had the same questions. The MDS and S/MIME are only relevant to BES or Corporate/Enterprise BB software, not the common BIS. The DOD cert really are apparently for Department of Defense, and it doesn't do much either way, but it flags things in a way that could save us time IF we were seaching a military sponsored site. The TTY is related to hard of hearing stuff, something about a different way to energize the voice coil. If your aren't using a hearing aide, you wouldn't have a reason to apply.

Like the man said, if you leave them off, no harm done.

Awesome Burt. Thanks a lot!

How is your device "acting funny?"
