if you are not from COMCEL Colombia remember to erase the vendor.XLM

For install instruction to load any carrier 8220 OS on your BB:

Just letting you know that it didn't brick my 8220 for T-mobile. I also customized the firmware by deleting "Voice Activated Dialing" (vad) and "Fave Five" software.

yeah i updated it yesterday and works ok, had an issue with a theme i had instaled but with a reboot everything is running again with no issues.

hi there... thanks for the update... The previous OS that i downloaded from the thread in the start of the forum is still continuing with the 'reboot' of my phone every now and then on a random basis. Is this new OS in spanish...I mean will it impact any of the applications in terms of the language...? I am just too exhausted loading and reloading the OS on my phone.. it works fine for a few months and sometimes just a few days (like this time around) and then starts rebooting all over again... nearly 30-40mins for a reboot every time!!

no, it was posted by a latin american carrier, but the OS is multilanguage, so u can use it in english and have no issues with other apps.

you should give it a try, maybe it can fix your phone finally

Thumbs up! The new 4.6.0.308 OS works great so far, after a week of heavy use. Thankfully my phone does not reboot during sync like it did with 4.6.0.305. Finally I can move on from 4.6.0.278!

yeah mine had an issue with the led blinking when there was no new messages with the .305 its gone with the .308

[hubermania]

Would one of the moderators mind Sticking this thread? I've been using OS 4.6.0.308 for almost two months. It's rock solid.

Hy! Absolutely rocks this version! Installed it 3 days ago and no problems whatsoever! I'll post if something happens!

[omrjln]

Downloading now for my wife's phone

[kill3r000]

Update: using it gave me restarts when you least expected, draining the battery more rapidly than .305. These aspects made me turn back to .305

[rappadappa77]

So what is the final verdict on the OS from all who updated?
