Soooo....I just got my 8320 today and when try to restore my old 8100's "backup file" everything else gets downloaded but the address book...anyone else have this problem before or knows how to fix it?

Did you get any error messages?

You can also try:

Open Backup/Restore, click on Advanced.
On the left side of the window, click on File. Navigate to your backup file and click Open. The left side pane should populate with databases that can be restored to your BB. Click on Address Book and click on the button in the middle of the two panes with >> on it. Your Address Book should be transferred.

Yes, I would definitely recommend upgrading to 4.5. Much better browser, and video camera.

Ok so I transferred the address book...now to the new OS. Is there anything else you could recommend because I'm new to the curve? :-) thanks again

If you have any problems post back and someone will help you

If you're running DM v4.7 you should remove it from your PC and download/install 4.5 or 4.6.

4.7 and the Curve don't always get along so well

Ok thanks...
so I have the newest 4.5
sooo im trying to put on new themes but they arent showing up on the phone after i load them with DM

[plunkingtom]

Are you looking in options, themes?

[BlackBerryBran]

yeah....and none of them appear

[xliderider]

What kind of files are you loading to your BB with DM? If they are .jad files, they are OTA files. The files for themes loaded with DM are .cod/.alx files.

.cod/.alx
and after it finishes loading i go look in options and i dont see the new themes

Try a battery pull, or a QuickPull reset if you have QP installed. If that doesn't work, it usually means that the theme isn't compatible with either your device or your OS version.
