Yep, I'm experiencing the same thing. Anyone with some guidance on this? Still trying to fingure this out. Thanks!
I had a problem installing 4.6.0.216. I had installed it fine and then bricked the phone, it was stuck on 167 and wouldn't upgrade, I tried a bunch of different stuff nothing worked.
Today I got it! I went to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader and saw a file named Loader.exe. I double clicked on that one and it worked! So give that a try as well.

Sorry, I missed this post before I asked for help. My bad.
I went about launching the upgrade as mentioned above and now it is underway. Just be sure to delete the 'Vendor.xml' file that is located in this folder before launching 'Loader.exe'. Should work without a problem!

I believe the WLS issue is a known issue for any OS above .185 (at least I think that was the last known OS it worked on). Not sure about "where."
I have been running this OS for 3 weeks without any issues at all. Browser seems to work better and faster. Memory was running at 28 - 32 and now its consistent at 52. I would suggest this OS to those wanting to upgrade. Remember upgrade your OS at your own risk.

Definitely, with the same link in the beginning of this thread the BB site the link connects to is RIM corporate so there are several language choices..

I've spent quite a bit of time reading these forums about upgrading. I just bought my Bold a few weeks ago, with the .167 OS. I have read alot about the .210, .215 os upgrades and wonder just where these can be found. When I go on the BB site all I am offered is the .167. I did reload that in hopes of improving things and caused myself a bit of heartache when I lost some of the Apps that came with the phone. I figured that out and everything is close to "as it was" except I am missing one icon...but I don't know what it is. Anyways, is there a site I can go to find these OS upgrades? such as the .210 and .215? Thanks y'all, this is a great site!!

not too sure if i can post links to betas
but i tried googling for them
just type 4.6.0.210 or 4.6.0.215 and you should get them
I've just got my Bold for a little over a week. This is the best phone I ever got overall.
I tried to update the OS to .216 in the middle of the night, but got the following message:
-Uncaught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
-Uncaught exception: java.lang.Error
-Uncaught exception: ApplicationRegistry.waitFor(0x7491f7b6ae80681a)tim eout
I clicked ok a few times then the messages goes away. Is it something that needs to be fixed or I shouldn't have any problems?
Update: I removed the battery and replace it after a few minutes (like a windows restart). No error message.
