     I am not able to get this to load on my phone. Does anybody have a different install or advice? Any information is appreciated.

     Thanks!

       After you have installed the download on your PC, go to:
       c:program files>common files>research in motion>apploader
       First, delete “vendor.xml”
       Second, double-click on “Loader.exe”
       Follow the prompts.
       I would go get BBSAK from rimgeeks.com first and do a full backup of all apps first though. Oh, and use Desktop Manager to do a backup of your contacts and such. Loader.exe will offer to do a full backup and restore of your data and apps, but I personally like to have my own backup before trusting the “during upgrade” backup.

   Is there a trick to installing this version? I get to the desktop manager and it says not software update is required. the new version ran without error, and opened the manager.

   And did you delete the vendor.xml file?

     I guess I am being dumb, but where is the vendor.xml file.
     I have had to mess with this file a couple of times, the rest of the time, it just works.

     OK I admit it I am dumb! I found the XML file (I must have entered the search wrong the first time). And now its installing. Thank you!

   OK I installed this and everything seemed to work. However the ABOUT screen on the Storm says v4.7.0.148

       The filename I downloaded is this:

       9530AMEA_PBr4.7.0_rel172_PL4.0.0.153_A4.7.0.122_Iusacell

       Is that the same as you all have?

   I noticed the file name that I posted above does not match the file name at the top of this article.

   Weird?

   Then I went and deleted everything related to BB from my PC (uninstall) and rebooted. Reinstaled, deleted the vendor.xml and it still says I have no updates.

    What version of DTM are you using?
    A big issue with current DTM versions is that with the “auto-check for updates”, it won’t allow you to install an OS that isn’t “carrier approved” even if you delete the vendor.xml file.
    I recommend if you do any type of tech work on a BlackBerry at all, to use DTM 4.2 Service Pack 2.

      DTM 4.7.0.37

      I haven’t had this problem with all of the previous releases, go figure eh?

      Where do I get the 4.2 and SP2

    Hmm…I go to the linked site from the article and I find

    Software para la BlackBerry® Storm (TM) 9530 smartphone

    BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.7.0.172 (Multilanguage)

    Package Version: 4.7.0.172
    Consisting of:

    * Applications: 4.7.0.122
    * Software Platform: 4.0.0.153
    * File name: 9530AMEA_PBr4.7.0_rel172_PL4.0.0.153_A4.7.0.122_Iusacell.exe
    * File size: 104.43MB

    Under listings for Iusacell, I see the “standard players” xx30 BlackBerry models, including 9530, but nothing about a 9500.

    This is for the 9530 the best I understand.

    I am even more dense than I thought. When you go to the download above make sure you get the right file. There are 2 to choose from. Better yet paste the filename above into google and find other places that has it.

    I didnt realize until just now that I got the wrong one. what a good waste of time…

    Hey Ronen! Just fyi the dialog box word wrap is NOT fixed in this release.

    Man, I really like the transition effects! Probably why this OS just feels snappier over all than .148 felt.

    Yeah David it was only fixed in 4.7.1 according to the dev I spoke to. Still have not had a chance to check it out..

      Its nice, but I really miss 4.5’s “Column View”. There’s practically no difference between “Column” and “Page” view modes on the Tour as it sits. So they fix one thing and break another.
