Hybrids what are they?

Hi I no this this is a stupid question but what is a hybrid os? I no what an official os is, I no what a leaked os is. Is it basically the same thing?

A "stupid question" is a question not asked.
A hybrid is just java code from different official and leaked os files, compiled to bring better performance to a device with a buggy os.
For instance, if your browser is slow or unresponsive, java code from a known responsive os can potentially be used on your device. I say "potentially" because all java codes aren't compatible.

Thank you but how exactly do you install hybrids? And where do you get the right ones for your phone?

I forgot to add this to my above post i did do some research and got the BDHP 6.1 hybrid and i'm pretty sure that I installed it correctly but it just doesn't get found on app loader when i try to install it? Any recommendations?

If it's a complete hybrid that includes a modem/radio, make sure you've installed the hybrid into the correct location on your hard drive. For me, it was C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\9930AMEA_v7.0.0.374_P5.0.0.552

That name of that last sub-folder will of course be different depending on your device and base OS.

Some hybrids involve just a modified Java folder. In that case, you'll want to make sure that your install is getting directed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\9930AMEA_v7.0.0.374_P5.0.0.552\Java

You might also just unzip to your Desktop and drag that folder to the above location.

Hope that helps.

Can I have a noob tutorial on how to install a hybrid? Also, what would be the best hybrid (OS 6) to install on a blackberry 9650? Thanks

Some hybrids aren't compatible with the latest version of App Loader. Just FYI. I don't have a link to the (older) version I use, but I got it from Crackberry in one of the Hybrid OS threads.
