BlackBerry smartphones please help - Firmware update

Hi all

I now live in the Portugal, and I asked to unlock my Blackberry 9000 "BOLD" to use it here.

I always use the V.4.6.0.303 (Platform 4.0.0.248) of Orange. I want to update to V.5.0, but the operator here in the Portugal, is this possible? and it crashes my Blackberry for Orange?

Help, please.

Thank you all.

All the best wishes for Christmas.

Your

Peter

You can update your BlackBerry by using an operating system of any company in the world.  If you look at the top positions in each category of these forums (aka 'sticky'), you'll see instructions for updating your phone using the OS from another carrier.  This will not affect your phone with Orange, unless you need technical support on their part and they have not yet released the OS you have installed.  Not to worry though, any support that you need to lie here in these forums.

I hope that helps you.

    How can I get the load to the top of the screen to access my phone?

    My phone had OS6 installed at the time it was released. Today, I decided to update to the latest version of the OS6. I downloaded the update through my device, and then click the button install. There is a prompt message warning that the installation can take 2 hours or more. After 2 hours, I started the monitoring device and noticed that there seems to be a pattern to the load up screen. 1 loading screen screen 2) black with LED light red 3) the load screen and then ends with a bright white screen 4) back to the black screen with LED Red 5) repeat this pattern.  I waited another hour to see if there was no change in the situation, but nothing. So I did a hard reset (battery pull). After waiting 5 minutes, I put the battery in and now I get this screen load pattern.

    There are two methods for recovering for you to try:

    One:

    • Open Blackberry Desktop Software & connect your device with the PC using the USB cable, without inserting the battery.
    • You have three Retry option, update or cancel, and then click Update.
    • Once it is at the stage of the "initialization of pocket" update, then insert the batteries.
    • If this does not work, and you get stuck on the safeguarding of social data feeds, go to the second method below.

    Second:

    • Start your BlackBerry in safe mode.  Article ID: KB17877 how to start a mode BlackBerry smartphone without failurehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
    • Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow handheld to connect. If you are prompted to update, cancel the upgrade for later.
    • IF you can not connect or your desktop software does not recognize your device in Mode safe, please follow the instructions here to force detection: Article ID: KB10144 how to force detect the BlackBerry smartphone using the Application Loader
    • Go to device > delete > SELECT DATA > select this option to remove the Social flow and smart card data bases and follow the rest invites you to complete.

    HY,

    Translation by Google:

    Everything began to be replaced by an old mobile Blackberry Curve 9300 for a new 9300
    Initially, I connect my old laptop to perform a backup.
    I connect the new and restored with the old backup.
    And starting problems:
    Initially I have found all my applications, after a ride on this forum B and am active Blackberry option. I thought that I had on my old laptop...
    But I'm still all of the missing Blackberry universe.

    I connect my Blackberry Desktop, it tells me I can do an update from 5.0 to 1419 Pack Update pack 6.0 1879.

    But the problem and not the update bug.

    Following error message:

    An update to the Blackberry Desktop software component must be installed before proceeding. I'm okay then after seconds qqs:

    An error occurred during the update of your software
    The list of applications on your device is have been downloaded.

    However, I take things and I have zero reset my laptop with a factory reset.
    I past either directly through the laptop and the laptop tells me that there is no update available.
    So at the moment no update my software.

    Then I try to reopen a Blackberry ID session and still the problem:

    I know that my email user, I maintain the Blacberry ID confirmation email, but I forgot the password.
    I requested a new password, he asked me the secret question. I answer and it crashes with the following messages:

    You have reached the maximum number of authentication attempts with your credentials. For security reasons, this feature has been blocked for 15 minutes.
    or else
    You have reached the maximum number of authentication attempts with your credentials. For security reasons, this feature has been locked. If you have forgotten your password, use her you forgot your password feature to select another.

    What should I do?

    Please help me!

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    You have a lot of questions... so it is difficult to separate. I'll try both, I think I can identify:

    Please see this post "sticky" for useful information about your situation BBID:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you.

    With respect to the update/reload of your operating system, the easiest way is on a PC (you can't do this on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

    Solution for me:

    2 - Download Device Software for 9860 and BDS... obiusly for victory.

    3. connect the devices "WITH BATTERY", very important.

    You are able to reboot your device in SafeMode as shown in KB17877?

    I guess, because it is taken in a reboot cycle, when you connect to the desktop software it does not have a stable connection to reinstall your software?

    If this is the case, remove the battery and keep it off when you connect to the desktop software. You will get a pop up that the device cannot connect and there should be buttons retry, update and cancel. Select Update and you will then be able to reinstall the latest version of the device software.

    When the load progresses, you will see a step that says "waiting for initialization of the devices '. At this point, insert the battery and recharging must complete.

I removed the battery and put it back in and the only response that she led red coming for a few minutes then detach.

    Any suggestions please?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    See this KB to see if any of the symptoms match yours:

    • KB18223 Behavior of the charge BlackBerry smartphone

    If the battery discharged spontaneously, that would actually cause for alarm. If your symptoms match something, then likely recommendation is to reload for a while (at least 2 hours, IMO) and then see if your BB is back to normal. If the behavior persists, consult a warranty evaluation.

    Good luck and let us know!

    What I was doing to completely wipe my BB. I wrote this before and it printed.

    If your device does not work, perform a backup now if you have not already done save the file to a place and a name that you can easily locate it on computer.

    I then uninstalled DTM and then deleted all the other references to BB/Rim in Windows Explorer, thus eliminating the operating system for the BB to the computer in order to ensure that the version I want to reinstall a new version uploaded.

    and install it on the computer.

    Get the latest version of the operating system

    http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    and save it on computer.

    If the PC does not recognize the BB, you connect via the USB cable. Then remove the battery from the BB.
    With the battery pulled, connect the BlackBerry to the USB connector, and as SOON as you see USB - PIN: UNKNOWN, click Next. You must be quick. From there, you can put the battery in (make sure that you install the battery or else when completed the update of the OS and the device disconnects from the computer to restart, it will lose the power supplied by the USB connection and you will get an error and have to start all over again!).

    If you don't get it right the first time, try again (debrancher unplug the USB, remove battery, connect and click next while USB - PIN: unknown shows). You must be quick and the timing is key, so it may take you three or four attempts.

    To erase all data on your BlackBerry device, follow these steps.

    (1) download JL_Cmder http://www.4shared.com/get/oqP9V-2Q/JL_Cmder_v19.html

    (2) install JL_Cmder to the computer.

    (3) double check you have already saved the BB. If you DO NOT, you will lose all data.

    (4) make sure that DTS is closed and plug in the BB to the computer via USB

    (5) to reach the JL_Cmder on your computer and double-click it to start. Now, it may take a few tries to connect, so persevering until he does.

    (6) on the first screen, press a key to continue.

    (7) now, if your device uses a password, enter it now. If not, press "N".

    8) press 4 to start CLEANING

    (9) press on 'Y' to continue

    (10) now type "blackberry" to continue

    (11) on the BB, you see a white screen with an error "507". Don't worry, that's what you want! You are now ready to install the operating system.

    Launch the new Desk Top software on the computer

    (1) on the homescreen of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, click Device > update my device.

    (2) click on view the other Versions. Click the version of the new OS you previously downloaded.

    (3) click on install. The DTM will install the OS and then provide you with a list of applications to install. If you have had problems with an application, do not install it.

    Do not disconnect the device until the whole process is finished and restarted the device.

    After 10 minutes, restart again by removing the battery slot while tension and leave for a few minutes.

    Leave it again for 10 minutes. You should now have a fully functional BB!
