Default 4.5 Hybrid With 4.6/5.0 Files for 8330 users

I have made WORKING hybrids for the 9500/9530 before and wanted to try something out for the 8330 users.

This is recommended mainly for 8330 users, but:
it should work on any 4.5 Device with some tweaking

This particular beta hybrid consists of:
4.5.0.163
4.6.0.291
5.0 Files

Enjoy!

Please Back up EVERYTHING before installing this.
Java Only: 4.5/4.6/5.0 Hybrid v1
131 Radio (recommended for Verizon): Download Here [dont forget to rename it properly]

To install:
1. Download the latest OS for your 4.5 device
2. Copy or extract the .rar files contents to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\83#0-v4.5.0.1##_P3.4.#.# folder (Where # is the actual OS you've installed)
2a. Shrink files if you'd like with the newest Shrink-A-OS included
3. Click Launch Loader in Shrink-A-OS OR go to Loader.exe in the AppLoader folder and update your phone

Please Back up EVERYTHING before installing this.

Please post any issues you have so I can try to fix them. Also - let me know if the previous profiles fix is still required for Verizon users and I will update accordingly (or issue a file fix .zip)
Thank you for trying theiexplorers.com Hybrids by lyricidal

[Note: The reason I named the topic as it is so that in future, no updates will be required to the title and because this should work on any 4.5 device)

Updating now - super psyched to see BBM 5.0 integrated; it caused some problems for me earlier so I'm hoping if it's built into the OS it'll play nicer with my other apps.

Nothing it's just apart of Shrink-A-OS when adding the 5.0 files - Don't click that button in shrink, btw for those getting click happy

Hi lyricidical,

Question: does this work for all 83xx series or just for 8330? I have a 8320 and would love to give this a try.

Hope you don't find if I answer..

This will work for all 4.5 devices, just copy the java folder into your most current OS.

Beat me to it, but it should as long as you just replace the Java folder only, but keep all the rest of your OS install in tact

I'm already running the 4.6.0.267 hybrid so is there any reason I have to go through and re-download the newest registered OS? Can I not just use the new hybrid to overwrite the old one?

You should be able to do that no problem, just as long as all the files get overwritten when you copy/paste
