Instructions to install, 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.

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.

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.

Hi,

I downloaded the language pack from my service provider site and
I am trying to install it but it says "Error reading set up initilization file" and I can't run the file.

I am trying to update the desktop manager to 5.1 but I got an error message too.

All I need is Japanese Language Input.

Do you know if your language pack has Japanese language in it?

I found this version of the OS made my 8520's battery drain overnight. I'm downgrading to the version on blackberry.com

Choose United Kingdom and then click the "Free download & Help and support area" link on the left.

[bligui]

Link does not work asks for login information

[Noodle22]

I'm thinking of updating this weekend, any feedback on improvements with this OS so far? All I've seen is one person say their battery drained faster :/

[still.savage]

on the page where it asks for login information click on the link to the left which states free downloads - thats then take you forward with out any need for passwords.

I'm downloading at the moment - are there any improvements with this OS?
