That's a big file. The one I was about to attached is only about 1.1 mb or so. What other goodies are in there

for some reason it won't let me download it now

Can anybody tell me where I can find the latest OS for a Curve 8310 so that I can get a friend of mine BBM upgraded?

Which carrier would you need jmarkybb? I have found several. For an 8310.
Of course you would need to delete the Vendor.xml. Do you remember how to do that?

I think I saw that you were on O2 UK jmarkyBB. Found this for you

Its not for me Pascal, I got roped in to helping some one in the USA, they have BBM V 5.0 on their Curve, but no BBM icon, witch means they have the wrong OS, right?


They are on ATT/Cingular Curve 8310
4.2.2.170 (platform 2.5.0.30)

Yes..you are correct sir....The OS I posted should work if I'm not mistaken. They will need to delete the Vendor.xml as I expressed earlier.

Good Job and welcome to BBOS!

ok, so I am stumped. I'm sorry I kept reading and I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I have 250 with lyricals hybrid on it.
I can't seem to get bbm 5 on it.

I thought the hybrid would load it automatically but it didn't, it was in the apps screen on my phone but no icon?

What step am I missing?

Have you restored the contacts to your phone and then done a battery pull?

Battery Pulls is simply taking the battery out. I recommend 3 x 60 second pulls.

Also here is an OTA for you: BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 OTAs
