- I have a new Curve with an OS version 4.2.2.170. There is a lot of talk about different operating systems, and it seems that many CB Curve users have "upgraded" to v4.5. Is this something I need to / should do?
Since the answer is probably "depends..." I can tell you all that I run only a few apps that are not very complex, but I now have about 350-400 MB of music on my 2GB card (the music player on this thing is bitchin', by the way).
Thanks in advance !!
There is guide at the begining of the thread that shows how to save ur 3rd party apps, yeah i have like only 100MBs of music since u can copress it into mp4, but i do not think that would depend on it, i haven't fully check on my phone since i just made the upgrade...
If any of this info is wrong please correct me as i am new to BB devices ok, thanks to crackberry community.09-02-08 03:04 AMLike 0 - i upgraded to 4.5.0.55 and all seems to be okay but the new message indicator (little yellow folder at top of phone w/red asterik) wont go away and i dont have any new messages... ever hear of this problem and any suggestions to get it to go away? Tried disconnecting the battery but no luck. thanks much!!!!09-02-08 12:48 PMLike 0
- Yay! I just upgraded from 4.2 to 4.5.0.69 and it was smooth sailing the whole way. Thanks to everyone who provided the info through this thread. Couldn't have done it without you.09-03-08 10:24 AMLike 0
- Can this be done if you have Verizon? I know the network is different and do not know if it will work. Please can someone let me know?

However now my opera mini won't connect. I'm gonna delete it and reinstall and see if that works. Anyone have any ideas besides that?09-03-08 02:18 PMLike 0

I have all intentions of upgrading to 4.5.??? whenever it hits the market sometime this month, but I'm a little worried about all the issues of upgrading I'm reading about in the threads. BBs being nuked, locked up BMs, and other scary stuff. I really want to be able to upgrade but I may be gun-shy when the time comes. Is it really as scary as it appears in the threads? Will I crash and burn trying to take it from 4.2 to 4.5.??? I may not be all techy and such, but I can follow instructions pretty good.. and I do have just enough knowledge to be dangerous. Maybe I should leave well-enough alone.

There are ways to recover and then there's CB.. YEAH!
Thanks for the moral support.09-05-08 04:26 PMLike 0
