Default Os 4.7.0.75 Leak!!!

THIS WILL NOT WORK ON YOUR VODAFONE 9500.

Got the OK to leak the updated OS...so here you go

Don Nguyen » Blog Archive » OS 4.7.0.75 leak

Comments are appreciated...

Download count as of 12/1/08 @ 8:39 AM PST: 8679

Direct download link - http://www.ndnguyen.com/bbstorm/9530..._A4.7.0.75.exe

Mirror 1

Mirror 2

Mirror 3

Torrents:

The Pirate Bay

Mininova

this is not an OTA update...this is a desktop update. This also requires a PC as a Mac will not run an executable file

Link on Digg.com

Download the Leak, then:

1. Back up data on Desktop Manager under Back up/restore option
2. Back up your 3rd party apps. Instructions here--> http://forums.crackberry.com/f3/how-...cations-53201/
3. Disconnect your BB from Desktop Manager
4. Download desired OS to your PC
5. Install/run OS to PC
6. If you are not on Verizon, delete vendor.xml file. It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
7. Connect BB to Desktop Manager and it should prompt the upgrade. If not click app loader and that should initialize it.
8. Do not unplug BB during the process. It will take around 30-60 minutes to complete upgrade.
OS .75 - Feedback and Review - Comparison to .65

DO NOT DELETE VENDOR.XML IF YOU ARE RUNNING ON VERIZON SINCE THIS IS THE VERIZON RELEASE.

Ignore this message and continue:
"Warning: After completing the loading operations, you must activate your device wirelessly to continue to send and recieve messages and use other BlackBerry services. If you do not want to continue with this loading operation, press Cancel."

If you brick your phone

How To Reload the OS on a Nuked/Bricked BlackBerry
If you do not have the Application Center, follow these steps:

1. log into BlackBerry Internet Service
2. click service books
3. click send service books

NOTE: Installation time varies between 15 minutes and an hour and a half. Please be patient

I don't mean to sound rude or anything but why should we trust you? I'm new here so I don't know if you have previous credentials or anything.

Thank you very much, Don. I just really hope that your source does not get into any trouble for this, I would feel bad if he does.
