I am trying to download OS 4.5 from Blackberry.com, but the application loader keeps telling me that my device is running the latest software (it is running 4.2).
Anybody else experience this, and are there any solutions?
4.5 can only be loaded from BB.com if it has been released by your carrier. Last I checked, Verizon still hasn't made it available. Currently, the solution is to wait for VZW to release it.
FALSE FALSE FALSE 4.5 Can and has been loaded on VZW phones. My 2 and my wife's are loaded with 4.5. If you can find the beta for your phone...it is out there I have an 8830 and an 8330. You need to search for the right version I believe SLVR6 has a post about this. YOU NEED TO READ THE PROPER UPGRADE/DOWNGRADE post in How to's. el novato is WRONG.....
P.S. your os is the .77 release which is in the wild.

lol, I'm glad I'm getting to be so popular.
BTW, the OP indicated that he was trying to upgrade his 8830 from RIM's website via the web based upgrade tool that came out a couple of weeks ago. This will not allow him to upgrade to 4.5. This is what the second poster meant by their statements above. What he'll have to do is grab the CDMA BETA from another source like you and others did. Just wanted to point that little detail out.
Wow, you beat me to it spaciorek! Not much to add but to say just search for my blog and the links to the latest official releases are all there. PM me if you have any questions!
