I believe 4.5 is wonderful, cuz it adds video for curves and HTML mail for all the BBs, it’s smooth enough to have a right to exist.

“It sucks to go from 4.5 back to 4.2……..Having all those wonderful features and then being shot back down to earth again”

Your kidding right?
Just did the official upgrade to 4.5 and can’t wait to go back to 4.2
Such a broken mess.

when upgrading these devices you must wipe it clean from the old software, go to start on your computer, go to RUN, do the following: type cd\ enter, javaloader hit enter, then type javaloader (space) -u ( space) wipe hit enter, if you have a password it will ask input it and hit enter this will wipe your handheld clean, dont forget to remove sim card and memory card, you will see code 502 on your handheld, and dont forget to delete vendor for apploader, after you turn on desktop not before, this will make your upgrade work flawlessly, any other questions you may reach me at williehoward@cinbell.blackberry.net

I was wondering is everyone having the same problem of memory leaking since upgrading to v4.5.0.42 ?

Hey guys – wanted to address a couple of people. First, to anyone looking for .42 I was succesfull using a torrent dl. I would check into that. N/A on all other links and most link to rapidshare.

Lance G – I had the same issues with the same phone on the same provider. 8320/Tmo… .37 fried two sim cards and then I upgraded to .42. I did NOT have sim issues on .42. This is after only 2 days though. So far so good.

Q – as far as sd cards, .37 and .42 support my 8gb microsdhc (high capacity) card. Make sure to take any sd cards out while upgrading OS’s. Here is a description of what sizes are supported by what OS….

4.2.0 = Up to 2GB
4.2.1 = Up to 4GB
4.2.2 = Up to 4GB
4.3.0 = Up to 8GB
4.5 = not listed, but I can confirm at least 8gb support
new BB Bold shipping w/ 4.6 OS will support 16gb

Also, for those of you who haven’t stopped by crackberry or pinstack, they have great forums and lots of people with expert advice!

I originally had the 4.5.0.37 on my BB 8320(T-Mobile) and it ran smooth at first, then it fried my sim card. After getting a new sim card, It ran smooth again for about a day or 2. Then My phone just began to reset over and over again. I put os 4.2 back on my 8320 and it wa fine. Then I tried this new beta 4.5.0.42 and the same thing. My 8320 was fine for about 20 minutes and then began to reset over and over and over and over. I had to reinstall 4.2 again. If anyone knows of any issues with this happening on the 8320, please let me know. I’m just wondering if Its just my phone or perhaps a setting that i can change.

Just great! Went to rapidshare to download OS 4.5 and it comes up with an error! Says it may contain illegal content and has been blocked!!! Dam!

I was reading this site to see in what ways my blackberry might be enhanced thru different means of software and I saw that the much read about (by me) OS 4.5 was able to be downloaded with an update that fixed previous issues. I was now ready to give it a shot. Although I saw the beta up a month or so ago for download I thought it was to fresh to the web for my liking, I must research and see how others have faired first so now I’m returning the favor.

Having downloaded and sucessfully installing the 4.5 update on the 1st try following the instructions posted on this site, I have but one word SWEET! I have a T-Mobile 8320 and from the overall fonts on the device which makes for enhanced viewing when editing a office Doc in the eofffice app I have installed on my device. Oh yeah all programs ported over run with no problem, the device reseted itself after watching a you-tube flick but so far so good. you-tube is sweet on a curve, even if with the slow edge.

Messaging looks better, Browser is more refined and faster loading and rendering pictures, video recording also sweet, no complaints.
