Title says it all.. I would like to install the newest software for the 8703e which seems to be the Sprint version. I don't see why it wouldn't work on my VZ 8703e but before I install the upgrade I just wanted to double check to see if anyone on here has done it?

I assume you need to use Desktop 4.2 to install... that is a given.

And of course delete Vendor.xml and use jibi's modified Blackberry.alx file...

other than that, should be no problem right??

This thread has all the necessary information to assist in the downloading and installing of new BlackBerry OS releases:

It was the third thread listed when I searched for "Upgrade Sprint OS Verizon". It is also the first "Attention" thread listed under "RIM Software".

well I installed it. deleted vendor.xml and did the copy and paste method, excluding the CDMA folder. Install went fine, phone running perfectly.
