I installed OS6 on my 9300 a few months back, but 3 weeks ago I sent my device to Blackberry because the track pad was not working properly, and I got it back today completely blank, with OS 5, I tried to install OS6 like I did last time and it was impossible, it just cant be installed as I did before... I used BBSAK to wipe the device first, and then I could get it to install OS6. After that I just load my last backup with Desktop Manager and my App backup with BBSAK
Hi, I've deleted the vendor file but when I run the loader.exe I can only install or delete apps. There is nothing about installing new OS ;/ pls help
I experienced the same problem, but found a solution. First of all, I hit the 'Wipe Device' button in BBSAK. After doing so, I was able to install OS 6 and many other applications in BBSAK, following the 'Load OS' procedure. Good luck!
hey i did everything said here but it didn't work. after i clicked next next on bbsak, a dialouge box saying device application something and then i cliked next then next it said update successful but it wasn't
worked but very glitchy and SMS is twice as slow and doesn't send till about 15 minutes later even with full service I'm trying to figure out how to downgrade back to the previous version
I backed up my phone on bbdesktop....erased the file in the program files of the computer downloaded and loaded OS 6 to computer and downloaded and installed BBSAK...when i go to load os...all it does is load the apps already on the phone???......and doesnt prompt the os 6 at all...any solutions...im using the Curve 3G by
my blackberry bold 9700 is dead now after 6 days it does nothing i get a black screen and i have to send it back to blackberry because there is nothing that i can do about it i have tried everything but nothing works so don't do this update is the only thing that i can say
then run loader.exe and update the phone by unchecking any one application you dont need (just so the phone can update and restartYou phone should update
updated my 9700, but nothing is right, im getting a white backround and wierd icons. something definitly went wrong, what do i do to reinstall/fix my phone to the normal os 6. I used DM initially to update my os to os 6. ive read to wipe out my phone, then update it using BBSAK.. any suggestions???
@youfiss hey the same thing happened to me so i just downgraded back to os 5 and everytime i tried to upgrade to os 6 again, the same strange interface kept coming up. How did you manage to fix that?
@israelisaclown Before you update to os 6 follow the steps I've written, then update the software. You must delete the files I mentioned, and then update your phone so you can have a normal interface.
tip: if it doesnt work the first time "wipe your device" with bbsak, then once its in a messed up mode, do the update. it should work THANKS YOU SO MUCH SLAMANC!
@salmanc1 Please Reply! i have the pearl 3g and its my second one because my other pearl 3g broke i was running os5 and then i upgraded to os6 but it kept on swallowing up my battery life and it would only last for half a day is there a way of increasing my battery life whilst running os6 i am thinkinnng of converting my new pearl to os6 rather thann OS5 please help and will it wipe my BBM contacts???
Guys! go to Crackberry dotcom and scroll about half way trough and there is a leak of the OS 6.0. Download it and install it on your computer after, on the bottom right of your computer click the arrow where all the programs are that's running in the background, you'll see the blackberry logo, right click and it would prompt you to download 6.0 and follow the instructions. Thanks and enjoy
@monstamahadeo Thanks, If that works for anyone please start there, please post a comment if that works for you. If that doesnt work, go for BBSAK as above...
@heavyweightcf HeavyweightCF you woke me up! Cheers man! Don't worry BBSAK will take care of your issues. Restart computer, try the update through BBSAK again. If no go, then could be your phone had too many incompatible third party apps. Delete those before trying update. Finally, kill all DM processes and just connect to BBSAK and do factory reset in there
@gasolina76 Go for it. Try the BBSAK 1.8.5 - it may work in your case! My only didnt work because of Windows 7 - but you can try it from bbsak website in description.
@klieomanat In DM you can do selective restore (choose the things you want to restore to phone). Just untick the "Option" in the list and it should be fine. Its most likely an application you installed which is not compatible with the phone. Delete all useless applications. If you are still stuck you can just do a factory reset in BBSAK. Open BBSAK,, reconnect device (close DM), and click factory reset button. This will reset your OS (remove apps & settings). Then follow instructions again!
@klieomanat If it is something else then its a problem that already existed on your blackberry. Im assuming you are ARE doing the bold. If you have done a backup on DM you should have no worries! If your blackberry was messed up to begin with, backup your stuff (all files) on DM, and you can do a factory reset on your bb through BBSAK (theres a button there) which restores the blackberry to its original state. Then you can follow instructions as above.
Yes it has the new browser. It has the new everything. Like typing in anything and finding stuff quick. Not sure if you need it for BES? Probably best for personal use... Just checked facebook didn't want to work for some reason, working on it
@salmanc1 dude this actually work I'm soo happy i didn't waste my money on a torch salmanc1 thanks a lot you saved me like 700+ dollars. I only wanted a torch for os6 but didn't wanna give up my bold thanks a lot man i'm giving you a thumbs up and high review and posting this video link everywhere thanks alot man.
You don't need to do this anymore. If you go on BlackBerry Desktop Manager, it asks you to update it to 6.0 automatically :)
