OS 4.5 launches for BlackBerry 8130 and 8330 officially!

Finally CDMA Curve and Pearl users can be happy! An official release of OS 4.5 has launched on MTS Mobility in Canada. The version available is 4.5.0.66 4.5.0.56 and I’ve had it loaded on my 8330 for a few days now and it works perfect! This OS can be used on ANY 8130 or 8330 as long as you remove the vendor.xml file found under: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\.

PACKAGE: 4.5.0.82
which contains:

  • Applications: 4.5.0.56
  • Software Platform: 3.2.0.44
  • File name: 8130AMEA_PBr4.5.0_rel82_PL3.2.0.44_A4.5.0.56_MTS.exe
  • File size: 72.84MB

  • Applications: 4.5.0.56
  • Software Platform: 3.2.0.44
  • File name: 8330AMEA_PBr4.5.0_rel82_PL3.2.0.44_A4.5.0.56_MTS.exe

    Are you sure that this is not 4.5.0.82?

    um.
    it’s app version 4.5.0.56, not .66 for both devices…
    which is a downgrade from the most recent leaked OS (which IS .66).

    thanks for the effort though.

    After installing the application, go into this folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\ and delete vendor.xml file. After that plug your BlackBerry into the computer and open Desktop Manager. It should prompt you to do a update…

    After that it should take about 30 minutes to it complete.
