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.

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!
BH

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.

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..

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.

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…

This is for the 9530 the best I understand.

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.

DTM 4.7.0.37

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

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.

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.

By: Mark

Mark — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 15:59:38 +0000

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?

mine shows 4.7.0.151, guess you reinstalled .148 and not .151

By: Mark

Mark — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 15:00:01 +0000

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

By: Mark

Mark — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 14:37:51 +0000

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!

By: Mark

Mark — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 14:31:29 +0000

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.

What version of DTM?
And did you delete the vendor.xml file?

By: Mark

Mark — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 12:56:45 +0000

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.

[...] 4.7.0.151 is actually found under the drop down for the BlackBerry 9500, however, several different sites are stating that this update is indeed for the BlackBerry Storm [...]
