so today while i was updating my berry, my laptop died and my berry nuked... well, i reverted back to the t-mobile 4.2 os.... then i downloaded the above .52 and deleted the vendor.xml and the DM 4.6 still won't prompt me to upgrade


any thoughts???

[bmcclure937]

Yeah... follow my "Proper Upgrade / Downgrade Procedure" (link in my signature) and it addresses this problem

Good Luck

hmmmmm....


the desktop manager is still not recognizing the 4.5.0.52 software

[benzworm]

anything else it could be?

[ScandaLeX]

Un/plug back into USB. I've had to do that when it didnt recognize the first time.

Have you manually tried to upgrade it?

Go to 'Application Loaded' and hit next until it prompts you to.

it recognizes the berry, but the Desktop manager doesn't recognize the new os event though it is for the 8320

[Salient Consulting]

Reinstall DM?

I am not sure what exactly you mean by this?

You downloaded the .exe file... then installed to your PC.

So, in Add/Remove programs on your PC what is listed for RIM?

You should only have DesktopManager and the OS you want to load. You do not need to uninstall the other OSes, but I recommend it because sometimes a little confusion can occur.

Make sure the vendor.xml is deleted... and you should be good to go.

(As a side note : What OS is currently on your Berry? And did you wipe the device with JL as I said in the directions?)

Okay... well you need to run AppLoader, not DesktopManager. And you can usually manually force it to see the OS you want to load.

i tried that too, but it says something like, no compatible software is loaded on your computer

Try to uninstall the OS and DesktopManager... reinstall and attempt again

(And you are positive that this OS is for your exact device?!)

...

Right on again, BM.

Did you know, vendor.xml is created fresh each time you run the device install?

Go back and check, that is the most likely explanation.

C:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader

[benzworm]

ya i delete it every time... ill try to reinstall the DM


and i'm sure it is for the 8320
lol

[bmcclure937]

Got an update on what is happening?

[benzworm]

[bmcclure937]

reinstalled the DM

wish me luck!!

Good luck

[benzworm]

ugh same message "no software available for your device"


i get it in the DM and when i try to force run the appinstaller from the common files>Research in motion>appLoader file

[bmcclure937]

What version do you have on your device currently?

Have you upgraded before?

[benzworm]
