My advice is to read through the entire set of instructions first...Understand what you are doing before you attempt it.

Please ask questions after you have read it, but before you start. The staff or myself will walk you through any issues you have.

I assume you are following Post number 4, Loading an OS?

Start from the top of that post and follow it carefully. :) Click the link to bring yourself back to that post now...

Thanks and good luck :p

If you have everything but a vendor file, it should be fine....you delete it anyway.

thanks for putting this together it as helped a noobie very much.

guyz I have downloaded os 7.1.0.190 but while uploading to phone my updater cant find it after installing also...please help me how to solve this problem..usually i am using application uploader but this time it is not supporting or finding the installed software....:confused::confused::confused::confuse d:

Sure I can help you Tloc, can you tell me what issue you're experiencing, and what OS build you're attempting to install.
Have you deleted the vendor.xml file?

Just install, update via Desktop Manager, it's so much easier.

So i just download the software on the computer ... install it on the computer and then upload it through BB desktop manager thats what you are telling me to do ....

yes, once you have installed Desktop Manager, plug in your device, please back up all data when prompted, and update OS.

Thank you ... will get back to you once i have done the needful and let you know how it worked out

what to do with Mac,, i mean how to install the latest OS into Mac ?

Restore Apps does not show in the BBSAK on my system?Attachment 2402

Let me know if I am doing something wrong?

hey guys. this is gonna by my first attempt at upgrading software. i've got a curve 9360 and plan to upgrade to 7.0.0.474 for now. seems stable enough from what i read around the net for this phone. but anyways.

i'm just going through the process and discovered... i have no apploader folder even (not hidden either) so i'm confused. does this appear after i install this new OS that i want to put into my phone?

Also on the remove programs. i dont have blackberry device software XX.XX.XX or whatever, only have
'blackberry device software updater' do i delete that? i have done a backup previosly using BBDM so... a little confused. hope to get some clarification from the masters.

There is an updated version of BBSAK v 1.9.11, zrabbit

Download: BBSAK 1.9.11

Also, when you are prompted to save any apps, third-party apps, make sure it is saved in the same directory, or folder (it could be on your desktop or in BBSAK's Program files).

Welcome to ::bbos:: majasmi

Congratulations on the purchase of your BlackBerry Curve 9360.

If I may suggest another OS upgrade rather than the OS7.0.0.474, which is not as stable as you think it may be.

Download: Leaked: OS 7.1.0.190 For BlackBerry Curve 9360

I have personally installed this leaked OS 2 days ago for a friend of mine, and so far, it's been an excellent build for the Curve 9360.

As for your issue of a missing application folder (which is located at Computer > Local Disk(C:) > Program Files> Common Files > Research In Motion> AppLoader (and if you see a vendor.xml file, please delete it).

In addition, in case your not aware of requiring to download the BlackBerry Desktop Software, which you will need to backup, restore, delete, update, etc....

Download: BlackBerry Desktop Software

I hope this solves your issue(s), and if you need further help, one of us will be able to assist you.

Thank you.
