The only thing that would be affected if the UK version did not have French language support. APNs and things are unaffected.
I ran a T-Mobile OS on my Cingular 7290 with no problems. I've also ran Hong Kong CSL and others with no problems.

Dear Mark,
I have searched the forum to find the known Telecom Italia download URL, but to no avail. I am looking for a possible upgrade of the Telecom Italian OS for 8700g.
Could you please be of some help? I cannot find the relevant page on the RIM site.
Thanks in advance

I have a TMO 8700g and have at previous points installed the 8707 OS versions
.316, .334 and .347 on it without any issues or crashes or JVM errors.
One just has to follow the right steps to do it.
Currently running the 8700 Bharti .351 OS (just after the Dobson .346).
Had a question.
Is the OS itself being referred here as firmware or,
is firmware being differentiated as the 'radio' under the GPRS/UMTS folders?

This would be a better post in a new topic, but make sure that you purchase blackberry service or you will not be able to send any mail. I would start on the Telcel website, but if you read the forum you will learn that you can load any cell company's 7100g on yours but please use the forum search and look that up.

Sprint..Telestra...grrr...which firmware upgrade?
Ok, I have looked and looked...and gotten quite confused as to whether there is an update for my phone or not. I have the 7130e from Sprint which currently runs 4.1.0.318 (Platform 2.2.0.127). The update on RIM's site for this phone shows a "package version" of 4.1.0.387..but the applications section and the software platform section shows the same versions I listed above, so is this an upgrade to my current firmware or the same?
Also, if this is an upgrade...which is going to offer me the better benefit...the one from Sprint or Telestra? Thanks!!!

I don't have a 7130e but, the OS on RIM's site for the Sprint model is the same version as your phone.
Version shown on phones is "Application Version" not "package version".
"Switching" to another provider's -such as Telstra or any other- OS is usually to play around with more themes.
Sometimes it may be for a better signal or volume.
Most of the time it's the individual's opinion on what benefits one derives.

I work for a large global company with many Blackberry versions and carriers in our environment. Is there a bundled AppLoader that can be obtained to avoid having to download every model/carrier combination? At 25 MB per downlaod I'm looking at days just for that, then packaging it on our side.

What's the good word on the Bharti 466 update? Works well on T-Mobile or Cingular? |

Try on blackberry.com go to Downloads/browseSoftware.do (sorry, bbf does not allow me to post URL's yet)
Also, just tested 4.2 with my 7105t. Went off without any hitch. 4.2 has some additional functionality (support for multiple devices and media manager)

Do i need to wait until there is an update listed on the carrier specific download page (from the first post in this thread) or will installing from another carrier work ok? I don't want to brick my berry.

I answer to myself 
The latest firmware for Telecom Italia's BB's can be found at:
blackberry.dada.net
The site is in italian only, though.
Latest 8700 fw is 309. |

Cingular RIM 7290 Fails to Load 4.1
I downlaoded the Cingular 4.1 Desktop Manager and the 4.1 Cingular device OS.
1) First upgraded the desktop manager.
2) Then ran the Cingular Device 4.1 OS
3) Than asked to run Desktop Manager
4) Did and then connected device
5) Once connected it asked me if I wanted to update
6) Okay and off we went
7) Got to point where it erased files
8) Then said it was loading JVM and Apps Next step was waiting for the device to initialize.
Seemed to hang here for ever. Now RIM is simply blinking:
slow red
slow red
fast red red
Pause
and then repeats.
Any ideas how do I get this back and functioning.. YIKES!!!!!!
Desktop Manager also disconnected and does not seem to want to reconnect. Tried to pull out battery and reinsert and still get same result.
Any ideas?
Help!
Thanbsk,
Norm  |

4.1 - successful in the end, what about 4.2?
Hi all,
I happilly confess that I've finally upgraded software on my bb7290 on Orange to the latest (I thought) version available: 4.1. 
Now, after installing (not without some issues, 'cause the new system didn't imported back my data), I went on the BB site to install the software on my PC at home. What do I find out? THERE'S A NEW VERSION IN TOWN! 
Oh, no, don't be so happy is not available on the BB website, no, there's just the software for the PC.... 
Any of you has any idea about how can we get hold on the device software for the new (4.2) version?
Thanks in advance!
