Update blackBerry Smartphones DM help please

I am new to this, please bear with me
I installed the disc that came with my "new" Curve 8520. When I open DM, it connects to the internet and asks me if I want to upgrade to version 5.0.0. The DM is version 5.0.1.28.
Am I supposed to update or not? How many times, if I should?
Thank you!
Delia

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Urgent help please, I think that I broke completely.

    So I plugged my computer and has been in the BlackBerry Desktop Manager thing and I was updating the software of the phone, but in 9 of the 11. Then I looked at the list of things that are done on the phone and he said he would delete BlackBerry messenger. So I unplugged the phone and now it won't turn.

    I get out the battery and put that it back in and all that happens is the screen and the keys light up in white and that's it, nothing else.

    Any help would be great. Thank you

    UPDATE: I plug the computer and started the update, removal of BBM is not on the list of things to delete this time even if it wasn't at the beginning of the last update.

    So, if he doesdelete BBM can someone help me please as to how that I get it back?

    In other words, if it works once again this update finished.

    Thank you

    Yes, you should have allowed him to complete, and then you can go back and add BBMessenger to the device.

    So, now, follow the instructions below.

    See the link below to download it and follow these simple instructions.

    First find your operator and the system operating file that you want to use.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    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.

    Once this is complete and your BlackBerry is back up and running, you may need to do a restore of the personal data that you have a previous backup.

    Please follow the instructions here exaclty.

    On your BlackBerry, go to Options (sometimes called tools or settings). From there, plesae, select 'About' from the menu.

    'About' will be the first item in the list.

    But no matter, since the 8900 OS 4.6.1.xxx a, you are well - as noted above, set your profile silent or vibrate and your DTMF tones when the composition will be silent.

    Also, make sure that your device you have the correct setting: Options > screen/keyboard > tone = OFF.

  • Frozen to the software update blackBerry smartphones

    I have a Blackberry Curve 9360 and it is frozen all by doing an update of the software (progress overall backup 13%).  It has been like that for the last two hours.  I tried to take out the battery, but it just goes back to the same screen when it restarts.

    Can anyone help please?

    Two options 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 failure http://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.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There is virtually no diagnosis of those - they are the equivalent of random errors in Windows for which trace the root cause is futile. Basically, here's the last out in the programming code - some event occurred for which there is no event handler in the code. The patch is an update of the code that handles the event... but, again, what is the event is almost impossible. So, there are a few things to try:

    Sometimes, the code simply is damaged and needs to be updated - just like a reboot:

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    If it doesn't boot properly, then you need to try Safe Mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode

    There may be a code updated to the value of the carrier - check out them through this Portal:

    The toughest possible causes are a bad application behave. To find it, there are two options. Is to see if you can read the log file:

    Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type "lglg". (You won't see anything as you type). This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably a lot of pages) until you see a line that says "eception execption. Click on this line. The application name will be in the info. Alternative methods to implement the newspapers are in this KB:

    • KB05349 How to activate, view, and extract the the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone

    The other method is to remove the apps one at a time, wait a while between the two (I usually recommend a week), until the problem stops... revealing the offending application. Yet another method is to recharge the BB OS itself, leaving little time between the addition of other applications on the BB in order to be able to determine exactly what is the cause.

    Good luck and let us know!
