Good job bro ;)

Thanks Rroyy:D

Installed. Now We�ll see :)

Thanks for the heads up, Rroyy!

Here's my updated OS install guide if anyone needs a refresher...

ELITE1's OS UPGRADE GUIDE
(updated 2012-09-01)

1. (Optional) Uninstall any previous OS from PC.
2. Download OS to PC. Use Internet Explorer, not Firefox or Chrome. (For leaked versions, browser is irrelevant.)
   *If 100% certain you previously used FF or Chrome on same PC to DL an OS successfully, feel free to use FF or Chrome again.
3. Following successful DL, run OS file to install OS on PC.
4. On BB, go to BBM Options, scroll down to Backup section. Ensure Remote Backup is enabled AND also conduct a Local Backup to media card.
5. Go through any 3rd party apps with option to save settings to media card. Conduct Backup to media card within each of these apps. (Examples: Bellshare apps like BerryBuzz & BerryWeather; QuickLaunch; Shao's apps like Wallpaper Changer & SixTools; etc).
6. Connect BB to PC. Open DM and backup device. Close DM.
7. (Optional) Use desktop app like BBSAK or BBMCP to backup 3rd party apps.
8. On PC, delete Vendor file located here:
   64-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
   32-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
9. (Optional/Recommended) Run BBH Tool (formerly Shrink-A-OS) or BB Boss v2.2 (not as updated as BBHT).
10. In same AppLoader file where you deleted Vendor, double-click Loader to load OS to BB. Follow onscreen instructions.
11. After loading OS, perform several physical battery pulls over first 1-2 days for OS to "settle in." Perform first batt pull very soon after OS is loaded.

**TROUBLESHOOTING**
How to Fix OS not Appearing as Available
There are 2 common reasons:

A. HIDDEN VENDOR FILE
Consider trying this new desktop app to remove Vendor from several common locations:
http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...-files-709738/

If manually deleting Vendor, always hold down SHIFT and press DELETE to permanently delete.
Check here first:
64-bit: Computer\C:\Users\{USER NAME}\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
32-bit: Computer\C:\Documents and Settings\{USER NAME}\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
If Loader still doesn't make new OS available, search PC for "Vendor".

If Vendor is not found anywhere, see below to delete contents of AppLoader folder. (Folder where you found Loader & Vendor.)

B. APPLOADER FOLDER ITEMS

1. Uninstall the OS: Control Panel\Programs and Features, highlight this BlackBerry Device Software, click Uninstall at top.
2. Delete AppLoader folder contents: Highlight any item, CTRL+A to select all, SHIFT+DELETE to permanently delete.
   64-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
   32-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
3. Restart PC.
4. Re-install OS on PC: Go to your browser's downloads section, double-click OS to start InstallShield Wizard.
5. Delete Vendor: Return to AppLoader folder, highlight Vendor, SHIFT+DELETE.
6. Load OS to BB: Attach BB to PC, double-click Loader (in AppLoader folder, where you deleted Vendor).

PS I've posted this before in other threads, but there always seems to be some people that appreciate a step-by-step each time.

thanks for sharing the update.
I'm downloading it now and will see how it compares to .912 which has been good to me so far.

once again the 9930 fellows are left in the dust... anyone know if this can be Java swapped for the 9930?

so whats new in this release?

very slow download (looks like a super congested server load !! )

wished there was a ' mirror download link ' ... anyone ? ...

i'm getting 5 minutes total download time at my parents house which is very good for my parents house. try again.

Thanks for the heads-up. It was an ISP problem that's sorted.

Now downloading ... 11 mins for full content.

Cheers Rroyy. Very fast download. I guess there's not many of us dinosaurs left now to clog the servers.

Any new features?

The BlackBerry Device Analyzer is there, but can't be activated.

I used the one from the link Sharma suggested in .912 version, and it worked fine.

The new Device Analyser is 1.1.0.47, and if you want DA to work, you gotta download the 1.1.0.46 version from the iexplorers.....BUT fear not!!!!

I did some effing around and managed to get 1.1.0.47 working, and have made an available link via OTA. It is available at the bottom of my post!

I was using .912 on the hybrid before the .exe was even out :eek: BerryLicio.us works some serious magic! Going to use this release as my base for future releases!



BlackBerry Device Analyzer v1.1.0.47 OTA LINK

Access this link from the browser of your BlackBerry smart phone to download


DEVICE ANALYZER OTA

Damn it just as I updated to version 912.
Lets see how this plays out before I updated.

I did the same thing. Checked Crackberry while my device was activating for .912 and there was .923! So I wiped and started over. Haven't seen anything different yet except that I couldn't get the device analyzer. Will try the suggestion a couple of posts above.

Yes I couldn't get device analyzer in version 912.
Im just going to update may aswell I thought since BB10
they would just forget about bold 9900 but they haven't :big-hug:

Yes , my gold battery works with this release .

Cheers

Strange... I was sure I was missing something when I reinstalled my apps from AppWorld.
I am sure I had before the Foursquare, Dilbert and Gtalk from Appworld, and now it says 'unavailable for this device'.
Can someone check at least Foursquare, please?

just do an alt+rst in BBworld, it worked for me once i did that.
In this OS BBM is 6.2 and appworld is 4.0.0.63 hence one will have to update these apart from ARM and have to downgrade Device analyzer to make it work.
Overall its a very Good OS . IMO, the best in quite some time:yes:

Thank you! So many times I advised myself of ALT+RST in appworld, and now I forgot about that :cant-watch: :ashamed:
Yes, it worked of course.

I also find this OS quite good, especially with the memory management, but it is still too early to be sure.
I had quite good memory experience with .861 for over a month, and after that the memory leak started again, without any application changes. I wonder how it will go with this one.

It's best to shrink out BBM, BB World, and pretty much anything else included that you can DL yourself from BB World.
By the time these OS releases make it to us, those included apps are almost out of date.

If you shrink them from the OS, then the versions you already had transfer over instead of being replaced by the outdated included versions.

This is how you CB10, son!

Hi Guys! 7.1.0.923 more color led pref?
