I don't want or need Blackberry services.02-22-12 08:45 AMLike 0 - I had the same issue when I was trying to update a friend's 9800. I installed the new software (I have about 9 different OS builds installed on my computer). I was running the new DM 7. I followed all the usual steps and the DM would not recognize the updated OS. Now I had already wiped the phone (because she bought it used), and thought I was pooched.
I ran Task Manager and killed all RIM related processes (I had 7 I think), kept the device plugged in and rebooted my PC. Nothing. Oh, gave me an option to downgrade or reinstall the same OS. Then the 7.1 leak for the 9900 dropped and I installed that. Right after I opened the DM, it connected to the 9800 (I never unplugged it from the PC) and said I had an update.
You do not need to have a BlackBerry Data Plan to upgrade a device OS, leaked or official.
Last point. DM truly does suck, it always has, and probably always will. Use the loader.BigBadWulf likes this.02-22-12 09:00 AMLike 1 - So how do you fix a brick? Every time I try to load an OS it goes fine until it gets to a "net_rim_bb_unifiedsearch_lib.cod" file, at which point the installation hangs and will not go any further. I have even left it at that point overnight, but it was still hung at that point the next morning.02-22-12 09:11 AMLike 0

- If the phone isn't activated, it's not recognized as mine yet.

- pcgizmo#IMCrackBerry Ph.D.Thanks for clearing that up; obviously it's my first day here. pfft. I've done hundreds of installs (new/used/wiped/refurbs) myself. Save it for the new-comers.

Oni isn't the only one not agreeing with you. There was a time I thought it impossible. That time has since passed.02-22-12 09:31 AMLike 0 - pcgizmo#IMCrackBerry Ph.D.

I deleted the vendor.xml file.

I just need to install this freaking update because my phone bricks every day and I'm hoping this would solve the problem.02-22-12 09:42 AMLike 0 - Phill_UKCrackBerry Wiseguy
I've updated the OS several times on this phone using Loader.exe (leaked and official versions), and have never had any issues or the 'subscription is required' message.
Done exactly the same with my pre-release 9780 on OS6. Proof positive that an active BB data plan is not required to update your OS on 6, 7 or 7.1
So instead of bashing others for being correct... just man-up and admit you're wrong02-22-12 10:08 AMLike 0 - pcgizmo#IMCrackBerry Ph.D.if I was wrong
The OP would have installed the OS. I've done it numerous times myself, yet every so often this same thing arises. I even loaded 6.0.0.587 on my 9650 that didn't have an active data plan before selling it.Last edited by pcgizmo; 02-22-12 at 10:26 AM.

Sounds like a corrupt file. Try downloading and installing a fresh copy of the OS.
Thanks. I've tried several copies and other OS's- same result. Both Verizon and BlackBerry said they didn'y know of a solution. I was hoping maybe someone here did.02-22-12 10:18 AMLike 0 - Originally Posted by Veritel
