Latest BlackBerry OS 4.5.0.42 Release 58 Found Online!!!
RIM has been doing a wonderful job with updating users with the latest OS 4.5 releases. The latest release I have found online is the latest OS 4.5.0.42 Release 58.
I was just sent a link to the LATEST version 4.5.0.42 OS for the 8100, 8110, 8120, 8300, 8310, 8320, 8800, & 8820. Sadly there is still no CDMA version of OS 4.5.
One of the places the files can be found are here UPDATE: The cats already out of the bag. Just search online and you will find the links all over the place.
This is probably ready for official release since Vodaphone has already officially released 4.5.0.18 and Rogers is shipping out the 8120 with OS 4.5.0.37.
Once again download these at your own RISK!!! T-Mobile UMA users might want to stay away from the 4.5 downloads since they had issues with the last release.
Thanks Birdie!

yeah, i’ve been trying all day to download from that link, but none of the links are working for free users.
the capchka’s (sp) are nearly impossible, and if you do get it right it claims your browser doesn’t support java script - even if it is installed, enabled and tests fine on other sites. rapidown 5.9 can’t even download the files.
i need a direct download link for the 8320 so i can see if uma is fixed. anyone?
June 8th, 2008 13:14
grr, and now rapidshare = 404
June 8th, 2008 13:16
I just got the 0238 (Backwards). All the links work.
June 8th, 2008 13:49
hey guys make sure when you are asked to type the security question or the symbols it says “only” type the symbols that are attached to the cat so there is one symbol or more that don’t have a cat attached to it thats why there is no room to type them all. I just figured that out.. but it time me out

RS says that IE and Firefox don’t have java installed (which they are). Does anyone have a fix for this? It is kind of annoying.
June 8th, 2008 16:20
……… Real Jamaican.. it was quite difficult to see the different cat from dog…. however i manage to get pull it of….. this OS i hope performs a whole lot stabler than 4.5.0.37 as i like it allot… i only suffer from memory leaks…..
BerryReview ROCKS!

How long should it take fo the reinitiation (reboot) after the software loads, and just before the “restore device data” step??? Mine has been running with the hour glass for over 15 minutes so far
June 8th, 2008 17:11
It takes about 30 minutes to come up after it loads the software. Pain that RIM should fix
Are these the links your having Cat and Dog problems with?
June 8th, 2008 17:13
Thanks….. i was getting worried about the reboot. Looks like it’s trying to restart now…. hour glass has disappeared.
June 8th, 2008 17:35
anyone missing the new fonts on after upgrading to .42. I dont have the newer fonts anymore
June 8th, 2008 18:25
This one is as stable as ever. Everything seems to work flawlessly including UMA and the browser cursor and all of my apps. And its running very smooth and quickly
June 8th, 2008 18:37
does rim release what the revisions for these new versions are?
June 8th, 2008 19:28
just got it installed on my curve, works really well so far, I went through and took out some stuff I knew I wasn’t going to use like the VAD and all the IM stuff, I messed up the first time and it couldn’t boot so I had to redo everything, UMA works and it seems to be faster than the .37 that I was using yesterday!
June 8th, 2008 22:33
I only got one link and that is rapidshare. does not install properly on my laptop and cant re-download using free version. any other links out there? thanks
June 8th, 2008 23:27
hey i downloaded the new version for my 8320 and installed it but when i run the desktop manager it doesnt show that the new version is installed how do i fix this because im not abe to install 4.5 at all its like it doesnt recognize it
June 8th, 2008 23:45
ej: rename C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\vendor.xml to something else. then try restarting blackberry desktop manager.
speaking of blackberry desktop manager… where the hell is 4.5 bundle 18? 4.5.14 is slow as shit!
help!
June 9th, 2008 00:37
I have heard that 4.5 enables bluetooth for listening to the media player, but I can’t find any way to do this. Am I missing something?
June 9th, 2008 08:15
As for the Rapidshare links yea their verification system is retarded lol but I have been using it for a long time, so I never have a problem.
If firefox is having a problem use Internet Explorer as usual.
Btw does anybody who has Tmobile used the upgrade did it wipe out the sim card or anything, before I decide to try it.
June 9th, 2008 09:42
I have successfully downloaded and installed 4.5 on my PC. Now, how do I get the new OS 4.5 on my 8820?
June 9th, 2008 10:52
Damn it!! Link no worky. Why why why?
June 9th, 2008 11:34
Ok thanks ill try renaming vendor.xml. But do I need to be running desktop manager 4.5. If so where can I get it
June 9th, 2008 20:18
ej: nah, any version of dm will work.
anyone found dm 4.5.18?
June 9th, 2008 21:08
God I LOVE this site!! THANK YOU!!!
Anyone notice some things are starting to work this week that weren’t last week? GPS refresh is now working for me with the last leaked release. It was not last week. CRAZY!!
June 9th, 2008 22:28
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.
June 10th, 2008 08:08
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!
June 10th, 2008 10:06
Back to the drawing board. I found a copy of 8310 but need the 8320 version. Hopefully someone will repost it.
June 10th, 2008 11:34
So will any of these work with a Blackberry 8830?
June 10th, 2008 12:15
Help need link that isn’t rs…rs is error…thx
June 10th, 2008 16:33
Darn, rs link blocked. Not having much luck Google’in other sites. Anyone have a suggestion where I can find the latest version for 8800…. thx
June 10th, 2008 18:23
Found 4.5.0.42? Please share!!! All I come across are taken down and I am running .37 on a Tmobile phone and it keeps frying the sim card. I am told I can fix this if I get .42. PLEASE HELP ME! I set it to email me if anyone else replies to this!
June 10th, 2008 19:49
that sux. dm 4.5.18?
June 11th, 2008 04:43
GOOGLE + blackberryfree = 4.5.0.42
June 11th, 2008 08:25
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.
June 11th, 2008 08:25
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
So sad!
June 12th, 2008 12:29
hey lance do you have a media card in your blackberry 8320?
June 12th, 2008 20:20
Hey, Q, got any ideas? i Bricked the phone and reverted to 4.2 as lance did. I was kinda shocked. But it’s better to have working 4.2 than bricked 4.5)

BlackBerry OS 4.5.0.42 Release 58 出现了 [WIPE YOUR BB]…
全球BBer都在关注最新放出的一张实际上没啥意思的BlackBerry Thunder图片的时候，有个更应该让我们激动的消息却有点被忽略了。BerryReview放出了最新的ROM，OS 4.5.0.42 Release 58，适用于8100，8110，81…
June 13th, 2008 13:10
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!
June 18th, 2008 12:51
I was wondering is everyone having the same problem of memory leaking since upgrading to v4.5.0.42 ?
June 18th, 2008 13:16
no problems here except very rare radio problems - but simply turning it off then back on corrects it. anyone found .44? :p
June 21st, 2008 20:22
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

“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.
September 30th, 2008 08:07
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.
