Application Loader Unable to Connect With Device

[puge]

@jbarbero Still not working... i open the DM pop-up comes up saying the phone is not connected and you have 3 choices, RETRY, UPDATE and CANCEL. Retry does nothing, Update does not continue in the middle of the process. then i hit cancel, but you can see on DM that my BB was detected why is that?

Darn, I never had a problem with my 8330, but that was older versions of DM. The scenario I described I had with my 9630. What OS are you trying to put on your BB? And you do have a 8330 and not a 8330m, correct?

Edit: Have you tried using BBSAK (dwnld @ bbsak.org) to load the OS? It might be worth a shot.

Hi

I too have the same problem with an 8310... If left it just cycles through the reboot cycle.... I can start the OS load process with Apploader but it fails when trying to reconnect to the JVM (i.e. when the device reboots) and I get the same message that Apploader can't connect....

I've tried to wipe it with JL Commander, but I can't get it to connect, and I can't get BBSAK to connect either....

Is it really possible to get a Blackberry to the point that it can't be recovered? Is there anything else that I can try?

Thanks

Tried everything and still unable to connect device during OS update. Hit retry 25+ times and didn't work for me Any other ideas?

i had the same problem, when it keeps saying retry, make sure u turn on your blackberry and wait for it to get up to the boot up stage and then press retry, should work!

My blackberry stopped working and I found it to be nuked. Now when I try to connect it by using Application Loader, it does not find my device. Because of which am unable to to install OS. Can any one give me solution for thsi issue.

My Bold 9900 had this problem too. I kept clicking retry and retry but it didn't go through. So I searched around the internet and found a very intriguing method to overcome the problem when it comes to the "Reconnecting to JVM". I tried the method just once and voila! The error didn't pop out, the installation went on smoothly and I successfully managed to load my OS!

Here are the steps:

1) Make sure the battery is fully charged.
2) Pull out the battery from the blackberry.
3) Open up loader.exe
4) Connect the USB cord to your blackberry and press next when the "USB-PIN: ###" appears.
5) Choose the applications that you want to install as usual.
6) Then click finish and the loader will begin installing.
7) When it comes to the part where the loader says "Reconnecting to JVM", quickly put in the battery back into your blackberry.
8) If done right the installation will continue on as usual.

Hopefully this helps because it works for me
