Just got the below email from RIM but I can't connect to the online update manager behind my firewall at work. Anyone else get this. I'm on sprint with an 8830 and am running 4.5.0.127.

I received it too. I am on Sprint. I also have 4.5.127 I wonder what the version is. I am pretty darn happy with the way it is right now. If anyone knows what version this update is, please share

[MegaloMegaloDon]

Only works if you are not connected to BES.

[AlwaysLostSometimes]

Got the same email and it's updating right now. Version 4.5.0.135

[greatcasa]

Only works if you are not connected to BES.

What explain?

On my way home now. Will hook up when get there and see what I find.

[bubbawat]

Just updated from .127. All tests seem fine for now - looks reasonable. Says it is .135

LOL - just one day after I took the plunge from 4.2.xx and loaded .127 from USMobility......

[vaguelydissatisfied]

I also got that message. I'm on Sprint and I'm updating right now from .077. Seems to be working.

[vaguelydissatisfied]

About page says v4.5.0.135. Good stuff. Went directly from .077 to .135, in case anybody else is in that boat as well. Yahoo for not waiting for Sprint anymore.

[fazmanicg]

Upgraded from .127 as well. So far so good.

[greatcasa]

I'm getting an error when it gets to the connecting to the database section. Says it can't connect to it. Anyone else having this issue. God I hate this browser update crap. Why can't they just have a downloadable file.

[greatcasa]

Anyone know how to uninstall the brower update application so I can reinstall?

Edit: Actually found that it's an IE add on. But when I click on it, it won't allow me to delete it. The delete button is greyed out. Anyone know how to get rid of the app loader?

[240zron#CB]

I received the email also. I have 4.5.0.127 on it right now. When I try to update to 4.5.0.135 my blackberry application loader shows I'm running 4.5.0.127 and i can update to 4.5.0.135 But when I try to load it tells me i'm running the most recent version and won't let me upgrade.

any one have any ideas?

Thanks,
Ron

"An error has occured while connecting to the service. Please check the internet connection or try again later"

Weird.

[240zron#CB]

Well I got it to download after about 10 tries. Not sure what the difference is looks the same.

[skunkd]

so far so good, i'm getting a bit more free mem then .127 anyone else? good deal so far! thanks for the link!

So I upgraded this evening shortly after I got home, however, I sent myself a couple of "HTML" emails that look just like the old ones, without downloaded images and such. Any suggestions? Is there an option on the handheld I need to turn on?

Have you tried to resend your service books since upgrading your OS?

[MegaloMegaloDon]

How can I get 135 if I'm on BES?

[FF22]

As I wrote in the parallel thread - I want the OS-executable and not this update while plugged in nonsense. I want a copy on my computer and the one at work but how does one go about doing that. Plus this update appears to require IE and not allow Firefox!!!!

I have the same issue and resending service books does not fix anything.

Anyluck for us VZW users getting .133? when I tried BlackBerry - Update your Device Software after BDM scanned my bb it stated I was on the current OS (.127). should I delete my vendor.xml and rescan?

[FF22]

Well, I just ran it and it said the only software available for my Verizon 8830 was a DOWNGRADE. Closed out that box quickly enough. I guess I'm sticking with .127 for a while........

[damascusdeac]

stuck by the BES
