There is no full install file.

Pick a base and copy the files over to the base overwriting old files with new.

Than install.

Which download link?

[Alex_Hong]

Yes, but the issue can be solved in the .267 leak by changing the brightness while the battery saving mode is on, rebooting the phone and then turn of the battery saving mode and change the brightness to your desired settings.

yeah, i know. but now you can just set it at whichever setting you like and it'll stay there. the old issue didn't bothered me at all since my battery saving mode is always on, and my brightness is set to the lowest.

I know those bricking issues are history. But after they came out, I don't want to take a risk by copying files over to overwrite. I suggest not to upgrade unless you are really comfortable with BlackBerry phones.

Install at your own risk. I've done my best to make this as simple as possible.

Method 1 - no base:
NOTE FOR THIS METHOD: DUH ON MY PART, RENAME FOLDER FROM 9360M_v7.0.0.530_P8.0.0.499 to 9900AllLang_v7.1.0.342_P5.1.0.276, upload already fixed
This WILL NOT and I STRESS WILL NOT affect the OS install, just will look like you're installing a 9360 folder

1. Install OS 7.1.0.284 to PC
2. Install this OS over the OS folder above

If you downloaded the installer AFTER 6:30 PM EST march 20/12 , the installer is fixed, so you DO NOT need any OS base to install this leak .342. Just run the installer, then TICK 9900-7.1.0.342 (NO BASE) and follow the instructions....enjoy

[jkrc717]

7.1 bundle 561 v7.1.0.190 platform 5.1.0.164

So I have no idea which one i'm supposed to install or what the difference is.

[Oncastillo]

I'll stick to my latest Tmobile version for now! Don't want to screw up my phone.

[phonegeek#AC]

Do you think we will be seeing the 9810 roll out soon? I cant wait!!

It's out there but probably hasn't leaked just yet. I have it for testing but haven't got to it just yet...

Anyone seeing issues with battery life? its weird the drain seemed slow today for the first several hours, fairly normal... But it hit about the 6 hour, maybe 7, then it seemed to drain fairly rapidly.

My upgrade was yesterday so this came off the charger this morning with a full charge on the new OS...

More to follow...

Here's what happens when you install the installer on page 7 by Lyricidal. Very easy w/ great results.


1. Download
2. Click on exe file
3. You will see this window
Attachment 105839
4. Then you get this screen
Attachment 105840
5. Since I have a 9900 I had to load 284 by copying the files into my 267 folder. Given that at this screen I hit the browse button and directed the install to the 267 folder (originally it tried to install to 284 folder, which didn�t exist for me.
Attachment 105841
6. After this I hit next and it takes me to this screen, which confirms the directory
Attachment 105842
7. It will install and launch BBH-Tool. At this point shrink or install on your phone.

Thanks Lyricidal. Very easy to use!

SO now we can just click the NO BASE one?

[axleberry]

bogus no hotspot on att with this build pretty bummed

[yvpan1]

hhm.. i think i'd better stick with the current OS build, i'd better wait till RIM has created its own installer file. the way this .342 OS is installed is like a hybrid OS but basically it's overriding the previous OS base.

[duck383]

nope, it's a clean install if you choose install with NO BASE (at the bottom)

[IPaWNurAsS]

So i can just install over no base right?

[ddlax22]

Yeah uh well mine hangs on the bootup screen and I used apploader after I installed lydical see version and I bricked it so I'm taking another go at it. I'll just install it through bbhtool as a hybrid

Yea the Name ID app is missing from 342 and even T-Mobile's official 284 release. What I did was install one of the 9900 official 267 OS and pulled the alx and cods for it and installed it myself. Works good

installed .342, install went smoothly and os seems nice and snappy (although i have said this about every new os thus far lol)

however, facebook v3 beta does not work correctly. my feed would not update. i receive an error message about the facebook server. tried a few reboots and deleted and reinstalled the app to no avail.

downgraded to facebook v2 and it works correctly. twitter v3 continues to work fine.

I'm experiencing a weird wallpaper bug. I tried to change my wallpaper to one of the default ones included. After opening the image and selecting "set as wallpaper" it brings me back to the Home Screen preferences page and shows a small thumbnail of the wallpaper. The thumbnail only displays the top left corner of the image ( roughly 80% of the original image). Upon closing the preferences page the wall paper also only shows about 80% of the image. I tried using a downloaded background (640x480) and it did the same thing.

Now here is the weird part... I decided to make one of my camera photos my background and it worked just fine. displayed 100% of the photo.

I also tried putting the wallpaper back to the stock one (the red weave) and it too 80%. After performing a "reset wallpaper" it went back to normal.

Please try changing the wallpaper for yourself.
