Hi all � apologies in advance for asking this question as I have tried to find the answer myself in the plethora of forum pages.

I am interested in loading up the 10.3 software but am a little confused as to what item to load onto my phone. I have seen the 10.3.0.296, the 10.3.0.296/441 radio and the 10.3 SDK. I have also seen the bar files from 10.3.0.441.

I appreciate that this is all test / development software and understand the risks but I can always revert back if need be.

I have a Z10 STL-2 and therefore wondered if the excellent crackberry forum members could confirm my options.
Thanks

You're going to get a range of answers to that question.

IMHO, unless you have a lot of experience with leaks and sideloading, I'd suggest the 10.3.0.296, here:http://forums.crackberry.com/bb10-le...-3-4-a-930460/

I'd strongly suggest reading this first. http://forums.crackberry.com/bb10-le...loader-927076/

In addition, note that a backup you might make on 10.3 would not likely be restorable to a 10.2.1 OS if you decided to revert.

So, read, then decide.

Much appreciated - thanks

You're entirely welcome.

I just thought of somthing else I should have added. Anew version of BB Link was just released yesterday. It would be best to udtae to this version to backup your device before installing the leak. BlackBerry Link - BlackBerry 10 Smartphone to Computer Sync - US

Good luck.

Great question. I've used a couple autoloaders before and I guess I'm fairly comfortable with loading leaks but I'm unsure if to load the sdk with. 296 bars or vice versa. What's the best experience?

If you really want to try the 10.3, I'd suggest the 10.3.0.296 as I noted above. I've yet to see any meaningful benefit to the 10.3 sdk/hybrid over .296, and the hybrid has a graeter chance of errors and/or issues.

Thanks for the help and advice - this is why I love these forums.
All loaded up and email, facebook accounts, camera, music seem to be ok.

I did install the latest BB Link and did a back up prior to installing 10.3.0.296.

[Ecm]

Excellent. Sounds like it went smoothly. Enjoy.

I've loaded up 10.3.0.296 with the bar files from. 441. Found a list of working bar files that encouraged me to load em up. So far so good. Email everything ok

Seemed have got pics and music to work but the video element shows an error. Not complaining as I know it is a beta build.
