    Hi, does this by any chance include Russian as a possible input language? I'm looking for a version that has the Russian language keyboard.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi I tried the link to download the software but it says:

    "We're Sorry...

    You've entered this page in error because you have the incorrect link.

    Please make sure that you have the correct link to download BlackBerry software.

    If you have any questions, please contact the webmaster."

    Does that mean they pulled the download?

    UPDATE:
    Tried the link several times and now it works . . . guess it was a glitch. Wish me luck!

    I delete the vender and DM see's nothing to update? Been there and had this happen everytime I upload. I don;t want to wipe the BB. Upgrading a blackberry sucks big time.

    Did you manually delete the vendor file or use Crackmem?

    Your device says 8310. How are you loading 4.5.0.77 on a 8310? .77 is for CDMA devices. Or do you have your device listed wrong?

    I recently upgrade my os from .55 to .81 and almost every other day, my 8120 reboots itself. Its not really a problem, but, at times, annoying at best. Any solutions??

    I finally got it to work after I disabled UAC on VISTA. But I still can not download or read attachments.

    I found this version to be too buggy. Went back to the prior release. Random reboots, missed calls while on UMA, etc.

    Anyone else have any comments on this? Sounds like a PITA to get to work. Just wondering if its worth it.

    I'm on tmobile and I have yet to encounter any problems yet. I don't get UMA all too often, so if I do ill yet it out (MMS).

    Overall this is a brilliant upgrade. I was waiting for the tmobile version, but since they're content with 4.3 I decided bits to them. I had a previous 4.5 that had all sorts of problems. On this Gmail works great, as does html emails. Even this site looks so much better.

    Hats off to you RIM.

    I just loaded this up and the first thing it did after about 5mins. of run time was re-boot my phone for no reason.

    Upgraded from .37.
    And my phone often reboots too. Especially when changing device settings.
    I was hoping that some bugs in the sure type ish, which is very very bad for german language have been resolved. It sucks always having to scroll down for a word that i use the most but just wont be put up on top in the list of suggestions by suretype software.
    also when i set the music player to turn music louder and check "do not ask again", the blackberry asks again after reboot...
    both "bugs" have not been solved yet.
