it's the only problem i have with .55 but I might try this new version for my last on a curve. Switching to a Bold.

And to answer my own question.

NOPE.

Battery Pull resets ALL SETTINGS on some themes.
Still not fixed. unless a new version comes out to fix this, i'm going to go back to a stable 4.2 until my Bold is in my hands. total BS.


as far as i can tell irresistible: the ringtones don't sound any different to me.

.81 is starting to mess up for me now, when i'm on my phone on the forums, i go to page 2 (when the thread has 2 pages) i get the spinning hour glass of death and it don't quit and on my home screen where it has my carrier name (centennial) it now has 310-30? when i do a battery pull it will go back to centennial until i shut the phone off at night then turn it back on it mourning and it goes back to 310-30,

Sounds like you may be running out of memory. Look in Options >Status and post your number next to "File Free."

I upgraded to the 4.5.0.52 and want to know is this worth upgrading? I noticed the low ringtone and for rogers customers the notification on voicemail stays. Having said that those were minor things and I really enjoyed the fact that the new upgrades improved my phone overall.

I am very very dependent on my blackberry so that's why I ask......is this worth it or do I keep to the principle of ....if it isn't broken don't fix....?

Thanks in advance...look forward to hearing from you guys...

Please help!!! I just upgraded my 8300 today, but now my BB won’t come back on. It just keeps restarting and restarting with that pinwheel rolling over and over again!
Any solutions?
If not, How do I downgrade?

[JSanders]

Have you removed the battery for about a minute.. replaced and ?

[John Clark]

Is there an error associated with this? My guess is you have some 3rd party application that doesn't get along with OS 4.5. You may need to reload the OS by doing the following:

did the upgrade on mr 8320 everything is working fine except my appointments from before the upgrade do not show up in pocket day. If I add a new one it shows up just not the old ones any ideas?

[Onyx8300]

Nope. Nada. I've removed the battery several times and restarted, I've removed the memory card, I've removed all my 3rd party apps (Yahoo Go, Sudoku, Facebook and Google Talk) and it still does the same thing. Just goes to black, then acts like its booting, shows the pinwheel, then back to black...etc, etc

John, i've always kept an eye on my file free (21242151) which is fine, i don't understand what that 310-30 is doing on my screen either, i deleted the vendor .xml file.

Actually, I have had that happen to me also... it is simply an odd network designator that I have had appear on my device a couple of times when my home carrier was not available. It is simply a roaming signal your device grabbed. Pulling the battery and rebooting or turning off Mobile Network and back on will normally revert it back to your home carrier signal.

Thanks, I'll do this tomorrow morning and see what happens! I'm really bummed, I just got this BB and I'm so attached to it already, lol!!

[Onyx8300]

Ugh, I feel like a total idiot. the JL Commander thingy isn't working. I unzipped the file, double clicked, clicked on run, and nada....then when I click on the file that pops up on my desktop, it doesn't do anything either.

When I try it the other way (with command prompt) I can't even get it to go to C:\Program files....etc. Its stuck on C:\users\**** and I don't know how to change it.
I am FRUSTRATED!!

So then I tried to wipe the handheld by typing in the wrong password/going to securty options>wipe handheld, but it reboots and STILL has the 4.5 OS, it doesn't display the 507 error

RIM is weird, I used to have OS .69, and I had about 19 MB with everything I wanted installed. I upgraded the other day and now I Have 22 megs.. Where do these megs come from!? 3 megs is a lot of code :P. I did a full restore with messages, sms, emails, everything, the works. And I turned it on .... BAM! 22 megs. I haven't restarted it in a day and a half, and I'm still at 20.5 megs. I love this upgrade. I've been looking on ebay to buy a 16 gig card since it's now supported :D HELLO DOLLY!

Ok, guys, I've tried everything, and come up with a big fat NADA. So that kinda sucks.

[bdizzlefizzle]

Does this work with DM 4.6? I just installed 4.6 and then this software, but when I run DM, it doesn't see any updates.

I'm running an earlier version of 4.5, and it's been stable, so this isn't a huge, deal, but it's surprising.

[shark1600]

This does work with DM 4.6, i see in your profile you have the 8310 and this is the 8300 thread so don't use the 8300 os it is device specific.

I'm confused by your last post... Depending on your source for JL_Cmder and/or JavaLoader, you'll find a few files in the directory where you unzipped the package.

I have JavaLoader.exe, JL_Cmder.cmd and JL_CMDER.ico. I also copied JavaLoader.exe to an identical file named "jl.exe" -- makes it easier to invoke repeatedly and quickly, which is sometimes needed.

I happened to install these in a directory called JL_Cmder under Program Files, but this really isn't critical. Wherever you happen to have installed is where you invoke it from. Now - if you try invoking JavaLoader.exe from within Windows, a "dos box" will open and close almost too fast to see. If you want to use JavaLoader directly, you'll need to open a command prompt ("dos box"), navigate to the directory where it lives, and invoke it from there (that's the easiest way, at least). If you invoke JL_Cmder, it will open it's own "dos box" with a crude character-based menu system - and you can do this from Windows (e.g., from file explorer).

If you do a quick web search, you'll find about 46,000 hits for JL_Cmder, many with instructions telling you how to use it to wipe your Blackberry. It may take some patience -- took me several tries to grab control of the device while the bootloader was starting up when my Curve was "bricked" with a bad OS load, but it eventually worked. I suggest reading a couple of tutorials on both JavaLoader and JL_Cmder, and a few posts about people's experiences with it. Sometimes it's easy - sometimes it can be difficult, but in the end, it seems that the vast majority of situations eventually yield to the tool. It may take patience, and careful attention to the instructions, but it should work.

If you continue having problems, it would help if you could post step by step tasks that you're performing, also noting: what directory you're in, what files are in there, whether you're invoking commands on a command line or via Windows file manager (or a program icon), etc. The more detail you can post, the more likely it is that somebody here can help you quickly.

I'm an idiot. That certainly explains it. Thanks! FYI - I just had knee surgery, so I'll blame it on the pain meds.

[bdizzlefizzle]

I'm a double idiot - I just posted in the wrong place, but I did get the version for the 8310, and it isn't working, but I posted in the 8310 thread. Sorry for the trouble.
