Do you also have Desktop Manager installed on your PC?

My loader.exe is here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
Same for Win 7 64-bit.

My 8330m died yesterday. So I took it to the "sprint store" today and they replaced it. When I got it home it is no longer a 8330m, but an 8330esn. So I downloaded the update, followed the instructions (as I had done in the past) and I now get a message that there is nothing to support my device to be loaded. WTF! any other update have done has worked perfect.? Have they found a way to lock me out? I deleted the vendor file before running the loader.

I have tried to load 3 different versions of OS and have had no luck. What did sprint do that I can't change the OS?
Please help.

It's in the first post. But here it is again for you: http://www.blackberryforums.com/gene...ilanguage.html
Also, what glitches are you experiencing?

My battery life increased with this version. The last one sucked my battery very fast and could barely make it through the day. Yesterday, I had about 40% charge left at the end of the day.
Also, I have not been able to get Moodio to work for a while, but I didn't associate it with the OS version. I tried it again after downloading and it works fine again.

thanks js. i've just been experience freezes. no matter what programs. hasn't happened for couple of days though. so who knows. i have that quickpull software and have been doing more then normal reboots. i wouldn't mind it so much as i'm used to rebooting no matter what electronics. but that 3 minutes reboot sucks. and the shortened battery life. i'm coming home at the end of the day with less battery then normal. and at first boot. i've unchecked any program that requires an internet connection at timed intervals.
i used to be able to go about noonish before the battery bar started dropping. but now it's about 9ish.

Do you have BBLight installed? If so, you may just need to reconfigure it.

never had bblight. i don't have a need for a lit screen. i'm talking about the red notification light on the top of bb. the one that blinks for notifications. it used to light up whenever plugged in. at one point and time i even had it set to change green when fully charged. don't remember how i did that.

That had to be a 3rd party app you had installed. That feature is not built into the OS AFAIK.

did a complete wipeout and reloaded 169. see what happens now. reboot dropped from 3 to 2 minutes so that's defenitly nicer. still miss the light though. it was steady red and went off upon complete charge? with the phone on. i'm pretty sure it was some network setting or something like that. but darned if i can find it again.
no 3rd party apps. only had google, amaze, bb app world, and email.

LED functions like this if the BB is off (or maybe standby) while charging. |

If I download it and decide I don't like 169, can I go back to my previous OS by restoring a backup from DM?

Installed this afternoon. No noticeable changes so far, although the pictures seemed to populate a little faster in the thumbnail view.
