- An OS is an OS no matter what country or carrier you have-with the exception of the carrier related bloatware. So if you find a release that matched your phone you are good to go. Remember you are loading an operating system not a carrier. The only important part is it is the correct version for your particular phone. Like a Z10-103 or 100 even. In other words you can't load a build for moe modle on another and expect it to work unless it's a leak that states all models-like you see on the Q10 downloads.

This way, you can control where the .EXE is extracted to, and that will be the same location where the downloaded .424 folder goes, as well.
For me, I extracted the .EXE to the desktop, and ran from there. The 424 folder was added as soon as I started downloading the OS files, and then I just navigated to that folder on my desktop via 'Install: Folder'

That worked. ;-) Thanks!10-26-13 10:19 PMLike 0 - It took a while to reboot... haven't really tested anything out. It's late, and I'm tired.
One thing I did notice:
Software Release is 10.1.0.2019
OS Version is 10.2.0.1791
Is that the "right" software release??
BlackBerry Hub (did take a long time to prepare) is showing me a "Welcome to BlackBerry Hub message" (though I did get a notification that "Some Accounts Failed to Respond" (perhaps that will just take a little time for things to settle in)
I did get an email from BlackBerry "Introducing the BlackBerry Priority Hub". YAY!
And some account Info Needed notification... perhaps that's related to the "Some Accounts Failed to Respond". I might just have to reenter the passwords.
EDIT: Yes, it appears that I just needed to re-enter my password for each email account.
More to follow tomorrow. I'm pooped.Last edited by lcgoldman; 10-26-13 at 10:28 PM. Reason: Added EDIT for email password.

If you give up on finding the file, try restarting your computer, extract the sachesi.exe file, place it directly on your destop (not zipped) before opening it. Then open sachesi, download the OS again, the 10.2.0.424 folder should download on your desktop.
Posted via CB1010-26-13 10:52 PMLike 0 - I have read all 13 pages of this thread and still struggling a bit. I also have the US Verizon STL100-4 phone variant and no matter what country and carrier I plug in, I only get 10.1.0.4181 as the available update. If I change my phone to STL100-3 then I can find the 10.2.0.424 update. I see where others are having success in downloading the STL100-3 variant version to their STL100-4 variant phones but I guess I don't understand enough about what's different about these phone variations so it just doesn't seem right to download a STL100-3 software variant to a Verizon phone which previously had the STL100-4 variant.
Should I be concerned?

Verizon Z10, Nashville, TN
Phone Information: US Verizon Z10, STL100-4
Previous Version: 10.2.0.1047 Leak (I had good success with this version)
Version Loaded: 10.2.0.1791 from Country 302 (Canada), Carrier 720 (Rogers), STL100-3 (Even though I have a STL100-4 phone)
Download Preparation: I backed up the phone but didn't do a security wipe and decided to load the new version on top of my current version as I would in a "real" Verizon update.
Process Used: The process as described in this post... I couldn't get to 10.2 using the STL100-4 Variant so, like others have reported, I downloaded the STL100-3 Variant
Download Experience: The download and update process using Sachesi worked flawlessly. I started it at 2:00 am and took about an hour to download and get to a point where my phone was back up.
Phone Settle-In: By 7:00 AM the following morning (4 hours later) BlackBerry Hub appears to be fully populated and the phone seems to have "setteled in" and isn't having any extreme battery burn. It is burning a little more than usual (about 1W according to Battery Guru vs: a normal idle state of .2W) but this is to be expected. I have seen periods with previous updates where it was burning between 2W and 3W for several days and the battery would literally drain in less than 6 hours.
Apps Checked Out and Appear Working:
DropBox
Evernote (full version... Not one integrated with Remember app)
BlackBerry Hub
Email... Both ActiveSync (work) and IMAP (personal)
Contacts
Calendar
Text Message
Browser
Facebook
BeWeather Pro
Password Keeper
BlackBerry World
Battery Guru
Gadget Box
Speed Dial App
Camera
BlackBerry Link Backup Process (after the update)
CB10
Issues Encountered:
1) There were a set of about 4 or 5 new "Rogers" apps which appeared on my phone. I deleted them but upon a "hard" reboot of the device they showed back up (it doesn't seem to happen with a "soft" reboot). I went into BlackBerry World to see if they showed up in the "Available" category after deleting them and they didn't. I will so some additional testing on this but it appears that this may just be one of the "downsides" of downloading another carriers official version. After deleting them a second time, they seem to have finally gone away but time will tell on this one.
2) Visual Voicemail wouldn't play previous messages... I had to deactivate it and reactivate it and then it worked fine
3) Pictures App... Initially it didn't see all my folders but they eventually showed up
4) Not sure if this is an issue with the new version or my old "leak" version but when I connect my BlackBerry to my Laptop via USB the previous version would create 2 "drives"... "Y" and "Z". The new version only creates a "Z" Drive. I never really understood why it would create two drives on the old version so maybe that is the one with the error and not the new version.
5) Not exactly an issue but the interesting part of updating my STL100-4 phone using a STL100-3 variant is that when I display the version in my settings, it shows that I am still a STL100-4 variant... Even though I downloaded STL100-3. I still don't understand everything that I should about these "variants".
Overall Assessment: Overall I have to say that this is one of the best update experiences I have had... Both "official" carrier updates as well as "leak" updates. I did do a backup but installed the new version on top of my current version. All of my system settings and application settings appear to have been maintained through the update process. Again, time will tell the story on this one as I more heavily use this.
I will provide an update to this post as I encounter new things.
