there's a link on the first page of this thread on how to wipe
Thank you for yoy reply DonNguyen
Iam new to bb
can you tell how to
copy from .75
load to .85
can you rephrase that into something understandable?
korean language is not in the .85 os
how do i copy korean language from.75 os
and load to .85 os
Go to C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\ResearchInMotion\Share d\LoaderFiles\.75\Java and find the Korean .cod file and transfer it to the .85's Java folder.
yes sir, i dl'd the .85 i hope lol, then i turned off my internet connection. i also went into the loader folder and wiped the file out there. then i installed the .85 and then plugged in my bb and went to update and it showed nothing, i have 4.7 software and im running vista. i am computer savy but this is my first bb.
we should make a thread for this...
i've had a few PM's and emails about this
you can't just delete the loader files, you have to delete them using add/remove programs...
also, make sure to delete the vendor.xml file
Excellent instructions! My Berry had lost it's browser and application center folder...plus unmentioned other bugs and lags...:mad:
Now it's Krackin' with .85 installed!
Thanks CrackBerrys!:D
Just did my battery pull, excited to see how well it works!
Do I have to wipe to downgrade from .85 to .83?
no, but i would
i had no problems updating to .83 but since i got a new comp with vista i just cant get .85 in...i have wipe working but it just wont connect to the phone no matter how many times i try. next, i deleted desktop manager and reinstalled using .85 file and it never sees the new update! can anyone help with vista installed
nm finally got it to work. still cant do a wipe but ill try that another time
CB community,
I am having trouble downloading the new os. I did successfully download .83 a few weeks back. I have downloaded the new .85 onto my computer but when I go onto BB desktop manager and hit update software in the application loader, I am prompted with Device Connection: (Select a device to connect). It asked for a pin and a password. I entered my password but it does not allow me to enter a pin. Any suggestions? I am also have trouble with the BB media sync for itunes, if anyone has any pointers.
Thanks
it should be a drop down menu to select the device pin
in DM, click Help > about > device software
do you see .85 in there?
I have a similar problem. I am using windows XP. I cannot get .85 downloaded to my phone. I have downloaded .85 to my computer and it is showing in my DM (under about DM), but when I connect my Blackberry, it gives me a message that "no update is available". I am currently running .75 version software on my phone. I cannot figure out what the problem is. I even removed DM and reloaded DM, then re-downloaded .85, but still not luck. Any suggestions?
did you follow the directions step by step?
Thanks for your prompt reply :) Yes, I downloaded the file, turned off the internet connection, connected my blackberry. Still no luck. (I previously upgraded to .75 without a problem.) I have been trying for serveral days to make this work without success. When I first checked "About DM" it was showing both the .75 and .85 software. I thought this may be the problem, so I removed DM and then redownloaded. When I reloaded .85, it is now the only program showing in DM. I can't understand why the program shows in DM, but my phone won't recognize it.
at the point where you select the OS, disconnect from the internet...physically
Thanks - I'll give this a try once again and let you know what happens :)
also, delete the vendor.xml file
Well, I tried once again and no luck. Still the same problem. DM shows .85 in the "about" screen, but when I connect my storm it says no new software updates available. And,yes, I previously deleted the vendor .xml file as suggested in previous posts even though I am on Verizon and the instructions say to delete the file if you are not a Verizon customer.
Has anyone speculated as to "if and/or when" the .85 software will be released offically. I think this may be my only hope, unless someone has another suggestion :(
connect to DM, application loader, update, disconnect from net, select OS...
that won't load the OS?
I connected to DM, started application loader, clicked update, disconnected from net, only OS showing on list was .65 and .75. New .85 doesn't show on list to be selected. :(
