DM is so old fashion. Use loader, copy and paste the java only link on a fresh install of 569 with 523 sfi.
Make sure vendor files deleted.
I didn't do too much modifications, just perfecting what I had before.

Thanks Zocster,
I tried both ways, DM and app loader and it did not work but when i repeated the RC2 drill it worked. Maybe, its just not my day.
I will put it to rest for now and give it a shot tomorrow !
What's wrong with DM ? Doesn't it do a wipe for you as part of the process rather than having to do a BBH one ?
I have always used it and it has worked faultlessly for me.
It has worked always for me as well, just not detecting the OS.
At the same time when i reloaded the OS with RC3 it worked like a charm.
It could be that either i am doing something wrong or it's just not my day !
So if I don't want Porsche theme, facebook and twitter I can just delete the relevant .alx files prior to install or do I need to shrink out with BBH Tool ?
finish update RC3 :
- install os base 569
- delete all base os, replace with RC3 java
- delete all .alx (using modified .alx)
- only try Facebook beta (having bad relationship with BBM hybrid )

Yes, just delete the alx. That you don't want. It's better to copy and paste on top of .569 Java, so you will have all standart OS apps. like Vad etc.
Seems quick and smooth, but then all brand new OS's seem to be like that. Having said that RC2 never seemed to lose that "brand new install" feeling and I see no reason why RC3 won't be the same.
Thanks as always to Zocs, Ian, Phill and the team.
Managed to make 3 better OS's than RIM have so far !!!

I did not delete the original files in .569. I was told by Zocster and others to just copy and paste over them replacing what was already there. I did not delete all the Java, UMTS and .alx I simply copied and replaced. I wonder what is the proper way of doing this or does it not matter?

The question has been asked but no one has given a definitive answer.
I installed fresh .569
Deleted all .569 Java and pasted in RC3
Deleted all .569 .alx and pasted in RC3 deleting Twitter, Facebook and Quicklauch files
Replaced .569 .sfi with .523 .sfi
Everything seems to be working fine so far.
Zocs said that RC3 is a complete OS for the 9900 whereas RC1 and RC2 were not so I presume that only part of the Java in the original OS was replaced in those first 2 releases.

if i'm not mistaken. for RC 3 full OS, the cod had been pre shrink by zocster (he only add cod that be useful for his personal use).
zocter's advice that you replacing base os java is that you still get full application (just in case you needed other application that desn't exist in zocster's RC3).

Aye, no definitive answer. But if you delete all java, umts and .alx from fresh install of .569 then paste java, umts and .alx from Zocs's brew, isnt that the same as installing directly his OS since it is a full OS?

This is what i gathered as well, I could be wrong though.

Guess that it is, but I wanted to be sure that DM would pick it up to install.
@Sator, I think as well. This is day 2 with RC3 loaded, and it is settling in nice. Seems too perfect, I have the 523 sfi [deadly combination] as it worked out the best for me.
Anyone noticed anything new different with BBM ? And a big thank you to all the team who have given their time and hard work to produce such an outstanding OS.... RIM take note!

Nothing visual, but as with the everything else with this OS it seems mega quick.

Now that's not something that I've seen written about a BB OS before, an OS that is too perfect !!!!
It's just a pity that RIM can't produce one that could even be described as close to perfect, never mind too perfect.

trying to fit the BB10 files into it for a hybrid.
