UPDATE: Issues remedied in this release:
- Shift-select has been fixed (in both messages and browser)
- Multi-input issue has been resolved in the browser
- Random reboot/hang issues during browsing is resolved/much-less
- SMS send delay/fault has been resolved
- Delay when calling or answering phone calls has been reduced
I was enjoying a relaxing 4th of July weekend but I had to take a break to post this. I just got a tip from another nameless faithful readers with a link to OS 4.5.0.45 for the CDMA 8330. This is OS 4.5.0.45 Rel 65. I know many of you have been dying to upgrade from the OS 4.5.0.33 we mentioned before.
Sadly there is already a later release of OS 4.5.0.51 Rel 74 but our tipster could not locate it. I am currently in the process of installing this on a Sprint 8330.
NOTE: Install at your own risk. This is probably a beta and may break your BlackBerry or even cause your home to self destruct. Please exercise caution and let us know your experiences in the comments.
Just as an example of where you can find 4.5.0.45 for the 8330 check out the link below:

Whatever you can do to locate an upgrade beta for 8830 would be greatly appreciated.
July 5th, 2008 22:27
Thank you!
July 5th, 2008 22:47
Had to be a .4x or .5x release soon what with GSM having .4x betas for a couple weeks now. Hope its more stable than prior 4.5 CDMA releases.
July 5th, 2008 22:57
As soon as anyone gets this loaded, please let us know what fixes there has been, and also if there has been any new bugs crop up.
Mostly Do we get our trackball click back yet???
July 5th, 2008 23:45
any reason the 8330 version wouldn’t work on the 8830? I would assume the camera functionality would be disabled but besides that…any thoughts??
July 5th, 2008 23:47
Downloading it as we speak will install it in 16 minutes
July 5th, 2008 23:49
dominik - you putting it on an 8330 or 8830?
July 5th, 2008 23:58
These OS’s are device specific so no you can’t install the 8330 version on the 8830
July 6th, 2008 00:00
OS 4.5.0.51 Rel 74
July 6th, 2008 00:01
Anybody find it?
July 6th, 2008 00:11
so us 8830’s are stuck with 4.5.0.33?? it’s pretty buggy still.
July 6th, 2008 00:18
Supposedly there is 4.5.0.51 rel 74 out for both 8330 and 8830 but i’m yet to come across it.
July 6th, 2008 01:06
I have the installer for 8830 rel74 4.5.0.51 but I have not installed it yet. I will keep you all updated when I get it loaded.
July 6th, 2008 01:18

July 6th, 2008 02:49
I hope we have not ruined everybody’s Saturday night…
July 6th, 2008 03:37
Works very well on my 8330.
The selection of multiple messages is working now and the problems with entering text in the Browser have been rectified.
July 6th, 2008 04:54
On my 8830 sms works fine, shift+scroll will highlight text and items again, track ball tick noise works, all ringers now work, and added voice notes recorder icon to desktop that allows you to actually record now.
July 6th, 2008 05:48
Another problem fixed when the phone screen goes black and press the trackball it wakes up it and doesn’t go to the applications that is highlighted. Only wakes up the phone.
July 6th, 2008 06:37
Come on Matt/Dom, share the 8830 love!
July 6th, 2008 07:14
Can this be installed on a 8830???????????
July 6th, 2008 08:23
Seems like they are checking this thread for problems or maybe some other place
July 6th, 2008 12:12
Anyone find the 8830 version yet?!?
July 6th, 2008 12:19
CC,
The answer is no
doc,
I have the same question.
July 6th, 2008 13:41
I found one bug….before when you received a voicemail message, you would get a message in your mailbox that said “voicemail”. Now, you no longer get that message but you still get a new message icon. The only way to clear the new message icon is to reboot the phone. Also, you now longer get an audible sound when you receive a new voicemail.
July 6th, 2008 13:44
Is anyone on Sprint getting full HTML e-mails with any of the Betas? I am getting semi HTML e-mails….I can get some of the images when I select “Get Images”, but some images will not download no matter what I do. I have HTML enabled and download all images enabled for all of my e-mail accounts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
July 6th, 2008 13:52
The digital signature for this file is not validating under Windows Vista, it claims “the digital signature is not valid”, yet it was signed by RIM. My downloaded copy is the same size as on rapid share, thus I’m pretty suspicious that the file has been tampered with. Thoughts?
July 6th, 2008 14:07
works fine so far, installed under Vista with no issues on my end. Still trying to find a bug
July 6th, 2008 14:18
Sprint TV worked for awhile then died, can’t even get menus now..
July 6th, 2008 14:23
The alternate copy at http://rapidshare.com/files/127522162/8330AMEA_PBr4_5_0_rel65_PL3_2_0_37_A4_5_0_45.exe is also displaying an invalid signature. It could mean the installer has been tampered with. Experimenter beware…
July 6th, 2008 14:31
This version seams to have fixed the bugs that I noticed in the earlier version. I haven’t noticed any additional issues. I really wish that they would add the newer docs to go the beta.
July 6th, 2008 15:11
has anyone tested this on the 8330 Curve on Verizon I am hearing about a newer release then this for the 8330 Curve has anyone seen it
July 6th, 2008 15:35
I have this on the 8330 Curve, still having problems playing certain video files, sometimes reboot on playing streams through youtube or other sites, the player hangs and then phone reboots, but other than that, it is working so far so decent
July 6th, 2008 15:41
I am running the 4.5.0.33 on my Verizon 8330 Curve now which runs great the only thing that aggravates me is when you touch the track ball it opens whatever I may try this one Knowing that the minute I get done there will be a link to 4.5.0.51 and that will suck
July 6th, 2008 18:08
Would some please upload .51 for the 8830 to rapidshare and give us the link OR tell us what keywords to enter on google to find it ourselves?
July 6th, 2008 19:21
Heyo, Telus BB curve 8330 on stock OS 4.3.0.124 , i am downloading this OS right now, will try and get back to this forum and post my results + any bugs i can dig up.
July 6th, 2008 20:22
Back with the update 4.3.0.124 to 4.5.0.45 Succesufly! with no complications, 30 minute aprox. for install, only thing to be noted is my facebook ican was removed, but application manager still says it is installed, so i will be reinstalling that and see what happens. other then that minor bug, everything seem to be in order.
July 6th, 2008 20:31
Facebook issue fixed, used desktop manager and removed it, after which the icon popped up AFTER it had been removed. Clicking on it brought up the screen offering me if i would like to download Facebook , Yes , Follow instruction, problem fixed ^_^ , everything is 100% up to this point
July 6th, 2008 20:47
Text selecting is fixed. Everything is running well on Verizon 8330!
July 6th, 2008 22:36
Installed on Verizon 8330 from 4.5.0.33.
All previous bugs fixed:
- Couldn’t enter text in web browser
- Call Status screen delay when getting an inbound call
- Couldn’t make outbound SMS
Awesome update. Hope 8830 people get as lucky soon.
July 6th, 2008 22:59
no one else has noticed this bug? I haven’t seen any responses to my first post so i’m curious……
“I found one bug….before, when you received a voicemail message, you would get a message in your mailbox that said “voicemail”. Now, you no longer get that message but you still get a new message icon. The only way to clear the new message icon is to reboot the phone. Also, I am no longer getting an audible sound when I receive a new voicemail.”
July 7th, 2008 05:21
@JFig24
I have not noticed this, BUT, I’m VZW. Maybe it’s isolated to Sprint? I even made a phone call to my phone and left a voicemail message to test it out. I not only received the message alerting me of a voicemail, but I heard the sound, too. Likewise, the voicemail icon went away after I checked it, too.
So far, this seems like a pretty stable release. Everything that marred 4.5.0.33 seems to have been fixed, especially the clunky browsing.
HTML e-mail is working like a charm, too, after just a simple re-sending of the service books.
July 7th, 2008 08:10
Bug Found:
When media is playing and a notification chimes in, the media does not auto resume anymore.
July 7th, 2008 10:06
I had a file that was unrecoginized and was deleted on my install it was Net_Rim_Vad_Engine_Resource
Did anyone else see this? Everything seems to work ok.
July 7th, 2008 10:13
The VAD files are for your voice dialing. If you don’t use that you won’t be affected by the missing file
July 7th, 2008 13:33
You know what’s irritating? People who have posted on multiple boards that they have 4.5.0.51, even posted test results from it, and NOT UPLOADED IT SOMEWHERE FOR THE REST OF US.
Let’s cut to the chase. You’re cool, we’re not, yay you have the bragging rights… now please share.
July 7th, 2008 14:25
Telus 8330 working like a charm here since last night. Seems to be a little easier on the battery. Might just be me though.
Nice update.
July 7th, 2008 15:08
It’s more than irrating. Anywho, how is it that 4.5.0.33 can be loaded on 8830 and 8330, but 4.5.0.45 is only for 8330? Anyone tried it on an 8830?
July 7th, 2008 15:12
The OS’s are device specific. A version for 8830 hasn’t been made “publicly” available yet. There is a .45 and .51 release for both devices. Just have to wait until someone is nice enough to put it up on rapidshare or somewhere else.
July 7th, 2008 15:14
I’m having the same VM issue that Jfig24 had. HTML email is not great either. Some image load OK….
July 7th, 2008 16:49
Good to know i’m not the only one with these bugs Hitnar. Are on Sprint or Verizon?
July 7th, 2008 17:14
I’m on Sprint
July 7th, 2008 17:26
I upgraded my Sprint 8330 to 4.5.0.45 and found one minor bug with the text messages as well.
If I send a text to myself from: hxxp://messaging.sprintpcs.com/textmessaging/composeconfirm
I do not get the sound notification, the text indicator at the top increments, and the text folder shows I have a message, but I can not see it. On 4.5.0.33 this worked fine. I think it has to do with the name being blank, when sending text from this site. Text from other users works just fine. Any one else try this?
July 7th, 2008 18:21
Great Download no issues so far
July 7th, 2008 22:16
i’ve played with the new upgrade for a whole 24 hours now. Telus BB curve 8330, without issues, but 1 thing that im wondering about. Wasnt 4.5 suppose to support YouTube videos? youtube.com ( mobile version too ) still dont work. can anyone else check, and confirm this? to make sure it just isnt a Telus thing
July 7th, 2008 22:24
Youtube works for me I am having intermittent connectivity with my browser though. Sometimes pages take forever to load. I have sprint
July 7th, 2008 23:36
My Sprint is working with You tube mobile fine, the only bug I see is the voice mail icon that doesn’t disappear. Battery life is good and Sprint TV is functional. HTML email works with the occasional image that needs to be manually loaded. I’m sure a final approved firmware will address all these issues, lets face it were guinea pigs at this point.
July 8th, 2008 06:58
Mattguyver, could you tell us where we could find this? PLEASE!!!!!
July 8th, 2008 07:49
My video plays fine wether it be U tube or any other stream But if I stop a movie before it finshes playing I get a large memory leak If I let the clip complete Its ok The only way to fix it when I stop a movie is remove the battery.
July 8th, 2008 09:04
He won’t post it, he’s either prevented by law/agreement or … well, I won’t speculate why ELSE.
July 8th, 2008 23:06
Is it me or does there seem to be a lot of hourglassing? I get a lot with SMS text, Ill hit send the menu stays up hour glass then it gets sent. Home to full application list and I get an hour glass, and for a good few seconds too
July 8th, 2008 23:09
Yeah I’ve had the same experience. The new OS no doubt has a larger memory footprint than the previous ones.

I loaded .33 a week or so ago and while it has some bugs, it works well. I knew it was a beta or a “leaked” version but I am pretty well versed in this technology so I think I know what I’m doing. I can handle it if something goes wrong and I need to change things. That being said, when I hear someone say ” the latest OS is out there!!!”, I’m thinking that if it has been uploaded somewhere, I could find it, install it and make my BB even better. I don’t have a problem with anyone saying that they have a new version that was releaed to THEM for testing and maybe a few others, but just tell us that. We trust that you’ll let us know the details and eventually. we’ll get it. I just think it’s wrong to let 10,000 addicts think there is a new version and for three days everyone is going bonkers googling evrything to try to find it when the original posters know it’s not out there. Mattguyver said on another site that this version is so good that only 1 or 2 more releases before the final release tells me that it was probably a private release to him and a few others. That’s great, I appreciate that there are people involved that get to these sites and keep us informed of the progression. Just please don’t tease everyone.
July 9th, 2008 11:40
I installed 4.5.0.45 and I have the same Voicemail bug as described a few posts above, a battery pull will eliminate the message icon on the top of the screen. Also I’m using a “ZEN” theme with the icons aligned to the side and after arranging the icons the way I like and doing a battery pull, it will not remember the placement of the icons on the side.
Otherwise a decent OS and hopefully 4.5.0.51 will correct these minor issues.
July 9th, 2008 15:00
Any one have the new beta for the 8830
July 9th, 2008 17:17
I’m still waiting for the 8830 version… I’m sick of having to delete every message 1 by 1…
July 9th, 2008 17:47
I am wondering when someone will find 4.5.0.52 for the curve 8330 I see its there for the 8300,8310 and 8320 The same release has to be somewhere for the 8330
July 9th, 2008 18:36
Or the 4.5.0.51 which is supose to be the latest for the curve 8330
July 9th, 2008 22:36
8300,8310 and 8320 are GSM phones and the software from them is different.
July 9th, 2008 23:44
If some finds a link for 4.5.0.51 OS for the 8330 please post it here!
Cheers in advance!

I found a bug on .45. If you use the 3.5m headset jack you will have to reboot the phone to hear someone on the other end of the call.
