Default OS: 8320 4.5.0.174/4.5.0.124 (English & East Asian)

Please Login to Remove!

BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.5.0.174 (EastAsia)
Contains English; from IndoSat
This will load to any carrier's 8320

Package Version: 4.5.0.174
Consisting of:
  • Applications: 4.5.0.124
  • Software Platform: 2.7.0.92
  • File name: 8320EastAsia_PBr4.5.0_rel174_PL2.7.0.92_A4.5.0.124 _Indosat.exe
  • File size: 87.99MB
Note: The Software Platform and Applications version numbers can be found under Options-About screen on the handheld.

Download here:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads...B53786A2C5FA09

Instructions for installing on ANY 8320 (regardless of carrier)

1. Download the above OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how much data you have to backup and restore during the process. Once it's done loading the new OS it will reboot (it may do this twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with an hourglass for up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization."
If, for some reason, you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply connect to the PC again and run Loader.exe again and it should load the OS to the device.

Prev. version of OS:

Thanks to dynamicrockstar469 for finding this.

I can't get the software to load. When I open the desktop manager I get a screen that gives me the option of which OS to install. When I pick the new OS and pick next it says "no software update is required for your device." I currently have 4.5.0.110 on the device.

under loader files I only have the folder 8320-v4.5.0.124_P2.7.0.92.

I have deleted Vendor.xml

Any ideas?

Use the apploader.exe to load the software

Ditto, you're not following the directions above.

It's going to be difficult to improve over 4.5.0.110, but I will give it a whirl and see. JL_Cmder to the rescue if it sucks.

Because DM 4.6 and 4.7 will run the automatic update and load a "virtual" copy of the vendor.xml file on your PC, that kills the process.

All covered in another long thread on the forum from guru John Clark.

The only problem I've had with this OS is that after a couple of days the Stnadby mode quits qorking. A battery pull fixes it for another day or two.

When I run "Loader.exe", it doesn't find anything to update. I have the latest OS downloaded and installed. vendor.xml has been deleted. Am I missing something?

since this appears to be the new standard, maybe that instruction should be in bold for this and future OS release posts. or at least maybe a "new install procedure" notice within the OP.

i realize the instructions should be read and followed, but now that everyone has become conditioned to deleting vendor.xml, that's now the response, or at least prefaced ("i deleted the vendor.xml") when a problem is posted.

we should now help everyone get acquainted with loader.exe or we'll go through this again and again.

hahaha, yes maybe we could precede each OS question with "vfd" as a shortcut for "vendor file deleted".
