    So I just got the update notice that I can switch from 4.7 to 5.0. Actually I have 2 options

    I can switch to 5.0.0.591 (4.2.0.284) OR 5.0.0.591 (4.2.0.272).

    My question is... why am I getting 2 options, and to anyone already on VZ's 5.0. When you go into the BB browser, are you locked into BING as your search engine or can you still choose from the others?

    Bing is not the only search option. The others are still there

    The patch only resolves the 'Technical Issue: please return to place of purchase' error. It doesn't address the issues i posted above.

    RIM Tour Displaying �Technical issue. Please return to place of purchase for repair.� after upgrading to MR2 software

    Posted on 4/20/10

    Description
    The RIM Tour MR2 software has been revised since a very small number of RIM Tour devices experience a rare condition where it displays a white screen with the message "Technical issue. Please return to place of purchase for repair."

    Resolution
    MR2.5 software (5.0.0 Release 1059 (Applications 5.0.0.591 / Platform 4.2.0.284) is now available to customers to prevent this rare issue from occurring. This software will be made available via over the air (OTASL) for customers on MR1 and on the web (WebSL) and BlackBerry Desktop Manager for all customers on 4/ 20. For customers whose device is experiencing this issue, a Recovery tool for the Flashbox computers was pushed to the stores on 4/20 that can be used to restore the customer's device to full functionality without the loss of any customer data.

    Here are instructions for using the Recovery tool:
    Connect the Tour device to the Flashbox computer using the USB cable. Launch the recovery tool by double-clicking on the executable file. Have the customer enter the device password (only if required) and the update is complete (~1-2min). Once updated and the 'Done' message (shown below) is presented, the device can be disconnected as it reboots with all user data and applications remaining intact.

    Exchange
    If for any reason the recovery process is unsuccessful, the customer should be provided a Certified-Like New Replacement regardless of warranty status.


    The bulletin has been posted in InfoManager Knowledge Base: Go to InfoManager > Tech Support > Technical Support Tool > Overview - Technical Support Tool >

    Go with .484, .591 is a joke!
