Smartphone blackBerry 8700 OS 4.5.0 update problems

I have downloaded the last OS file for my 8700, installed on my laptop windows 7 as I can't install it on my mac. You are prompted to restart after the installation. After the reboot, I am discovering I can launch the loader and update my 8700.

My 8700 is currently on the 4.1 OS and when I connect to DM and try to update, it displays "No updates available"

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." (You might have another Vendor.xml file hiding on your computer.) Open Windows Explorer, and in organizing key (on Windows 7, there are similar tools for Vista and XP) click on 'folder and search options. On the display tab, make sure that your computer is configured to display the hidden files and folders. Once you have done this, look for your drive C:\ "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.

* Starting with later versions of the OS6, there are now three copies of the SELLER. XML
C:\Program Files\Fichiers Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 32-bit Windows XP/Vista/7)
==========OR============
C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 64-bit Windows Vista/7)
C:\Documents and Settings\ * name * \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
C:\Documents and Settings\ * name * \Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
You can also just search of the SELLER. XML. ensure that you choose the ADVANCED SEARCH and include hidden files. It should display the file in three places. Delete all copies that it finds.

Note: Some users may be concerned they will void their warranty of device by loading an OS from another carrier. There is really nothing to fear. Please read more information about it here: http://www.port3101.org/power-users/296-blackberry-os-upgrade-including-betas-myths-dispelled.html

  • Smartphone BlackBerry 8700 c Device Manager and does not AT ALL

    So, I recently got a Blackberry 8700 c and for some reason, the Device Manager does not work. As my computer will make a dadunk noise when I connect my Blackberry via USB cable, but it doesn't register that my blackberry is connected. I can not go on my computer and actually click on my blackberry.

    I have windows vista and the software Manager for the device that I use is that I received in the box. 4.1

    I'm also using AT & T please help.

    All I want to do is to be able to connect to my computer and download themes and all I want the phone. But it does not work

    Jsanders thanks for your help, but I managed to understand! I got the Desktop Manager 4.1 version so I downloaded and installed to 4.7. That fixed my connection problem. And while I was home I decided to take the update of the software 4.5 versio and which is installed on the phone right now. I backed up all of my information and everything.

    I took risks and went with my instinct. And I fooled with driver vista settings. So far, everything is smooth.

    I used to mod motorola phones so I had sort of an idea of what to do initially. But the Blackberry intimidates me so. Haha!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry 8700 c not get internet

    Hello

    I hope someone here can help me.  I have a blackberry 8700 c that I bought at cingular/ATT now, a couple of years and 3 days ago, I lost internet coverage.  I spoke with technicians ATT & finally got referred to as BB technicians & nobody could solve my problem.  I have made at least 10 battery tire & did a hard reset, wiping clean all & starting over.  Nothing has worked.  My phone works, but does not sound & light is sporadic, jump for several hours & then back on.  I have been sent new books/registration to the service several times & ATT even took me off their program & restored me.  All to nothing does not.  Here is the message I get:

    With the ATT Navigator:

    Last update: finally got my internet back, but not thanks to support from AT & T.  Apparently, it was the deep, dark secrets while adding a new Tower & once they got that up & go that my internet is back.  Why they just could not have told me the truth & saved me all the stress of thinking my phone crashed is beyond me!

    Many thanks to everyone who gave me advice.

    I want to use a professional email with Blackberry Enterprise Server account

    What should I do? Do I need a BIS account, provider of services?

    Any help appreciated.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    To use the exclusive services of BB (including the ability to Push email, BBM, etc), you must have an adequate data of your carrier plan. Carriers BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) host for their BB users. In general, BIS is not available through generic data plans. Several ships make stop what is needed the Blackberry data plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier that delivers BIS users of BB - contact - the for assistance. Once you have a compatible BIS data plan on your BB (fees regardless of your carrier will charge, btw), your exclusive services BB will work (for example, you will have a staff/Internet Email added to the email Setup Wizard, your BBM will work, etc.).

    With hundreds of carriers in the world, each with dozens of different data plans it is impossible to say that any plan service could actually expressly provide for. Only carriers can answer this question. The best thing to do is to decide what services you want and then talk to your carrier about obtaining a data plan that allows what you want (to them).

    Good luck!

    First of all thanks to quick help! Secondly, I apologize for being stupid for this! I had an iPhone and got rid of him and now I have an older 8700. A little change! I was wondering if someone could help me determine if the software I currently have is the latest.

  • Search Smartphones blackBerry Appworld freezes since the last update

    Hello

    Since the last updated demand of appworld (about a week) ago, I encounter some problems with its search function. Indeed, when I enter a keyword in the search field, he sends back the result by categories (News/Games/My World...). And if I click on the categories to obtain details of applications, the application of the appworld freezes. I have to click the back/return button to regain control so I never the result of what I tried.

    So whenever I need a new application of the research, I use the blackberry website and a QR code scanner.

    And, on this point, I have another question: could you explain to me why I am not able to install applications based on my recent BB like 'Yahoo!', 'viigo' or the RIM-presents "bejeweled"? When I try to install, appworld responds "this application is not available for this terminal" (translation from the french message).

    I am very surprised that these applications are not available on one of the most recent device and with the latest operating system.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Technical details of my device: Blackberry Curve 9360 / OS 7.0 Pack 1825 (v7.0.0.400, 8.0.0.419 - platform)

    Carrier: Orange France

    Best regards

    Hello

    Delete AppWorld from your phone and reinstall it, and then update again (if necessary). It is possible that the update has been altered during the download or installation.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones blackberry 8700 themes

    What's up family of BB.

    Recently bought this baby - BB 8700 in new condition. Wondering too.

    Downloaded some themes, tried to send them through the Blackberry Desktop Software - nothing happened. He has not let me do.

    Any help?

    Desktop Manager was the original name for the desktop for devices BBOS software, then it became the desktop software. I can't tell you now how it changed from one version to the other.

    If the problem is that you need older versions, see http://www.blackberryforums.com/rim-software/253387-archived-rim-desktop-software.html#post1792956 of @JSanders of back in the day. I don't know if this will help or even if the links still work.

    If BlackBerry Desktop Software does not recognize your phone, you're really out of luck. It is imperative that the BDS connects to your phone.

    RIM has this to say about getting your phone to connect to the BDS:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry freezes during a call after update

    Hello.  I bought my Blackberry 8300 Curve on April 2008 and it was working very well.  Two weeks ago, I decided to connect the unit to the computer for an update and have downloaded the latest version of the software for blackberry (not by choice, the update practically pushed himself) and, since then, 98 percent of the calls I'm freezing with and without the bluetooth device.  I push all the buttons and it does not; I remove the battery and put it back and turn on the unit and it is still frozen.  Is it possible at all to do a rollback on update or correct this problem?

    You can recharge your device OS... can something gone wrong. See the following article:

    Also make sure that your carriers download site for you make sure you have the latest version:

    Good luck and let us know!

  • Smartphone blackBerry 8700 c messing around with SMS is HELP

    Hello! I got a used 8700 c so I could test Blackberry before investing in a new.  I use it on AT & T without a data plan because everything I do is txt at the moment. I was well.  Install SMS txting and went along great. I could send and receive sms txts.

    Then I tried to find a way to connect to my home wireless internet after reading here that I can do without the signing of a data plan with my carrier.  The 8700 c did not find my wireless device, but I realize, oh, well, not much.  I turned off the wireless on my BB.

    But now when I try to text SMS my BB says "Radio is off, message cannot be sent. You only will be able to save the draft. »

    What I did wrong?  I'm as much of a beginner you can get, but I look at the manual. I'm lost and worried because my wonderful son pays for the service on this phone and I'm not accidentally accumulate loads what whether light - and I don't even know what it means when he says that radio is off.

    HELP? !!!

    "Radio is off" means that the connection from your phone to the network of the company has turned off and nothing can leave your phone or be received by the latter.  Simple as that.

    You just go to manage connections on your home screen, turn on the network connection, and you're in business again.

    I hope that helps you.

  • Images of Smartphones blackBerry and contacts lose after the update

    I did the last update and lost all my photos and most of my contacts. How can I get back them?

    This type of update is nondestructive, so I don't know how such things can simply disappear. It simply replaces new files of the OS on the top the old operating system files, and then restarts.

    So, are you sure that there are NO pictures on the device? Have you walked around with the file manager and looked into different folders? Sometimes in the photos app, you will need to change the sorting 'Date' instead of 'Recent '.

    In regard to the contacts you can make sure that some of them are not related only incorrectly. Open the contacts application and then do a search for one of the missing names. Does show any success for this name with another name? If so, open the contact and go to 'links' down and untie the contacts, then save.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry 8700 / Outlook 2000

    I recently downloaded the latest desktop software and Blackberry device (on the site of Tmobile upgrade).  The desktop software version is v4.2.1.107.  The day before, I had problems with Outlook 2000 and had to remove / reinstall the program.  When I tried to sync my office on my device, I received the Intellisync dialog box that says "no applications configured for synchronization.  So, I tried to configure synchronization, when I clicked on setup, the only 2 options are Outlook Express and importing ASCII / and NONE.  I use Outlook, how to activate the device see Outlook or conversely, add it to the list of distraction?

    Thank you

    The Office Manager has ceased to be compatible with Outlook 2000 from Desktop Manager 4.3. The last version that supports Outlook 2000 is version 4.2 Service Pack 2. If they have that on the website of tmobile, download them and install that and you'll be fine.

  • Smartphones blackBerry email issue: read status not updated on the mail server

    When I gete emails on my blackberry I usually open to check which is everything. This should change the status of reading the e-mail and send it to the IMAP server. However, when I connect my email account by using for example the browser I can see advertising in markes unreademails.

    It is a personal e-mail to talk via IMAP and the software server is dovecot.

    NOTE: other IMAP clients that I use as thurnderbird on my laptop make syncronize the status of reading perfectly, so I guess that it is a parameter/blackberry problem.
