    Okay. I'm kind of confused. Is this the new version with the HTML e-mail? Or just the old version that are already on most new BlackBerry Curves?

    Can you please clarify?

    No HTML email, but newer than on most Curves. Go to Options > About, and see what you are running.

    Its just a new OS that is coming out on the new 8320s. This is not the 4.5 OS we dream of.

    So is this update worth it? It's not a big difference.

    Yes you can use it, just make sure you delete the vendor.xml file before you upgrade.

    So what exactly is this update updating? Like anything new being added, fixed or changed?

    No release notes were published, but if RIM put out a new version, it must have fixed something right?

    These are the times I hate having a mac. I did ALL of that (couldn't find the vendor file) and had a hard time opening an Exe file. Nothing worked.Didn't work.

    I updated the OS, but now I lost my contacts. I never sync my contacts through Device Manager. BUT I did back up my data, so is there anyway I can get the contacts I had? I have them on my SIM, but I had edit them. Going through one by one again is a headache. Is there anyway around this? If not then I guess I have to edit them again and sync through Device Manager so I don't have to do it over. :

    There is no 4.3 and the lastest OS is 4.2.2.184 which is what this thread. What 4.2.2.380 are you talking about?

    Are you looking for your next step in upgrading your device to OS 4.2.2.184? The confusion sometimes stems from the fact that RIM doesn't do a good job in separating the DM versions from the device OS versions. They cause a lot of confusion by naming them so similar.

    Having DM 4.3 has nothing to do with the OS 4.2, other than the fact that you can use that DM to update the OS (you can also use DM 4.2).

    If you're looking for the next steps to upgrade the OS, just do a search or read the RIM instructions; they're all over the place if you look.
