Hey everybody! I am back from my Passover vacation out in San Diego and the rest of the team has done a great job of keeping things running smoothly while I was out. Hope you did not miss me too much… :) Well lets get back to business.

The 8330m got an update to .138 a bit back but Nelson let me know that Telus has updated the plain vanilla 8330 to version 138 this weekend. You will need to delete the vendor.xml file to get this to load on another carriers 8330 but that is simple enough to accomplish.

    I’ve been trying to download it but it keeps timing out. I guess we’ll have to wait for someone to finish the download and upload it elsewhere.

    TT, try using DM 4.6. I will try this when I get back from the gym.

    If you’re using DM 4.7 either close your internet connection so it doesn’t look online for the carrier’s “official” release or you can use AppLoader to install it.

    Try using loader.exe instead of running Desktop Manager to install the OS if you are having trouble…

    Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe

    Ok, why doesn’t wireless upgrade work? I thought that feature was part of 4.5 to make things like this easier. It’s telling me there is no upgrade.

      I’m guessing you are NOT a Telus customer..?? If you are not, the wireless upgrade will not work because this OS is “branded” as a Telus operating system upgrade. In this case, you must download the OS to your PC, install to your PC and then delete the “vendor.xml” file which is the file that “brands” the OS.

    Loaded it up on a Sprint 8330 with no problem. Had to delete the vendor.xml file, like usual, but no big deal. Load was smooth and so far so good. Seems stable so far.

    I’m with telus and tried the wireless upgrade and it said no upgrades. That’s the first thing I tried, still don’t know why telus isn’t working on this. I just dl the file and installed it. As of my first post still this os is a stable one. Enjoy everyone.

    I’m on Telus too and my last upgrade was the official Telus version. I haven’t used any other vendor like most of us do.

    Downloading slowly but surely. It’s about time. Now if VZW would just get up to speed with their release.

    Thanks so much for Posting the Megaupload link , i was getting so sick of getting Disconnected from the DL server. I made a Post on the forums there, people kept asking questions implying i had no idea what a computer was , asking if im Downloading it properly, and if i was sure i was downloading it from the right spot >.< its a bit frustrating since im a computer Tech for over 4 years lol

    Thanks a bunch, Cheers
