BlackBerry smartphones updated phone number

Hey guys, I know this problem has been published several times, but it seems to me that my problem is slightly different from other peoples.

I have a Blackberry Curve 8520, I install on that Version 4.6.1.314. On my laptop, I have a blackberry Version 6 software. Im running windows 7 64 bit.

I connect my blackberry to your laptop using the usb data cable I click on device and then update device (as seems to be the only way I can update my phone is this way). It comes up saying that the software that I have now is the latest version, even though I know this isn't. Ive also went to the blackberry website and tried to download the software from there to try and manually install but when I click on download it asks me to connect my phone, once I do that it checks with my phone and said once more no update available. If I do not connect my phone I can't go any further.

I called my provider orange they me connected to the blackberry service, after talking with them they informed me that because I bought my blackberry of the carphonewearhouse and that sound is a SIM free (open to all network carriers) phone that I'm not able to upgrade my phone software.

So, to summarize

Update says no update is available with the V6 with desktop application

Cannot manually download the blackberry Web site operating system because it asks me to connect my blackberry and then says no update available

support BlackBerry at Orange seem to think it's maybe because my phone is SIM free

Can you please help me as I would really like the features that the OS 5 Version and it seems to be a better operating system altogether, I know it may be a lot, but when it comes to this sort of thing with mobile phones not terrible im home.

I could really do with some giving me instructions step by step on how to update the phone and where to get updates from.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me

:-)

Hey, it's been covered here many times.

First, look for ANY release of carrier for the device, model 8520 you want to install.

For example, the last official version for the 8520 comes from AT & T (v.5.0.0.822)

Operating system device provided are "released" by specific carriers once that they are certified and trained to their support technicians, but still, you are able to load any carrier the same model by following the instructions below.

Then. First, download the file of the OS:
https://www.BlackBerry.com/downloads/entry.do?code=577BCC914F9E55D5E4E4F82F9F00E7D4

Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
2. go in c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • BlackBerry smartphones updated software now issues:(aider!!)

    Hi guys. so I've updated my software on my bb curve 8520... Well the bb desktop software had asked me to do the experience works best with my phone. but it turns out to be the opposite. I can not call more I get this message when I try to call someone "can't call the current call" or if I managed to call I can't hang up unless the caller hangs up. my memory card is not working, or more, music and videos say 'impossible to read the content' but I can see all my photos. I can not view my airtime balance or update my bis. I tried to connect my memory card on my pc and it works fine when connected but as soon as I disconnect plays anything from my phone. I rebooted a million times. formatted the entire phone but nothing works! my alarm does not sound and sometimes when someone me the your text does not ring SMS. the update is performed from a 107... something to an update from 1788. I can do to fix all these technical stuff... im convinced this isn't the physical phone that is damaged. your help will be very appreciated. thanx

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Given what you describe, I think that is better to a clean OS reload. The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do 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:

  • Hidden blackBerry Smartphones 9900 phone numbers? Help.

    Some of my numbers have become hidden and I see only recent activity emails.  How can I find him to raise the phone number?

    So, to be clear, you have had the phone numbers in your address book on your BB. You then synchronize with Mac and phone numbers, disappear for some contacts address book entry?

    Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the groups feature in the Mac address book. Have you looked at BlackBerry Desktop Software sync settings?

    I guess you have already BIS on both of your devices, so first of all restart your device by removing the battery while your device is turned on, wait a minute then reinsert back .after restarting check if it allows,

    If the problem persists then register your handheld computer on your corporate network, for the help, see this KB:

  • Problem of blackBerry Smartphones updated my device?

    Hi, I have a blackberry 8520 and I connected it to my laptop and desktop manager says there is an update to the phone so I clicked on update phone and it saved my phone then it tried to download the modules but it gets stuck to 604 of 658, it happens all the time , would be - it because im connected to a service mobile broadband? Because it's the only time his arrival

    Could be. Whenever you have problems updating your phone, it is often useful to make a gesture at once.

    First, download the new operating system on your computer and install it on your computer. Here is the download site. Once you have the software on your desktop computer (PC, right?), you can then do the update on your phone via the Desktop Manager and not to worry about connectivity issues to the course.
