I've been running this version on my BB for a couple weeks and it seems to be pretty stable. All the bugs from previous versions have been fixed including the speaker phone blast when excepting a call. The only problems I've found with this version is on an Alltel 8330 the MMS isn't fully fuctional with Docs2Go installed and sometimes I'm not able to edit or reply on this site.

I've been running this OS for a few weeks now as well, and blackngray70 is right. Seems pretty stable, everything works great except MMS for alltel users. I assumed once they officially released this that the MMS would start working, but it doesn't seem to be cooperating today.

Default Works well on Verizon

Works on my 8330 from Verizon. My camera is a little snappier (pardon the pun). The options after taking a picture (i.e.- upload to Facebook) have been sluggish since the day I bought it. Finally a fix. Also didn't need to push service books as with past OS updates. Had emails coming in right after initial boot.

Isn't the a .100+ version floating around somewhere?

Won't update on Verizon 8330 for me. Deleted vendor.xml, start Desktop Manager, plug in handheld. Go to App loader, select update, select the new OS, scans the BB and says no updates available. WTH, .77 upgrade went flawlessly.

OK, finally got it installed. Sweet, no more speaker blast when answering calls. Even the callers on the other end noticed it. 50% of my phone calls began as:

Me: Hello?
Caller: What was that noise?

All fixed! Yay!

Yes, just delete the Vendor file pre-phone installation as stated in the original post.

I just tried it, everything was going as planned, until I hooked up my blackberry to dtm, it showed me that there is a software update, i checked yes, and it told me at the end I have the most current version. I currently am running 4.5.0.77. What am i doing wrong?

Nice, but it should not have been released because mms is hosed with docs2go installed, and Alltel has no clue as to why either, just got off the phone with them.

I'm having the same problem (running 4.5.0.77 now), but it doesn't even prompt me saying there is an update. It says that there are no updates available and yes, I followed all instructions.

I am new to blackberry and the Curve. I just purchased a curve on Friday and love it.My O.S is 4.3.0127 I probably should upgrade to the 4.5.
Do I do this on the Blackberry website,and do I use the same desktop manager that Verizon sent.I sure the OS will make a difference? Any answers will help.

I ran into this same issue. Must be something missing.. DM says no update available for me as well after following the steps.
