Two pieces of software: Desktop Manager is available from the RIM web site (
www.blackberry.com) in the Support section. Download that and install it. Done
Handheld OS is a different creature. There are loads of different versions out there. If you want to run the
latest version you will want to download the one that is available from Telstra. There is a sticky thread FAQ at the top of the General BlackBerry Discussion forum with the locations for all of the different carrier versions.
Note that all of the software is written by RIM; the carriers certify it (in theory). The "Bharti" and "Telstra" versions are the newest.
I "have to" run the latest version too. I am running the Telstra version.
- Download the version you want to run
- Execute the file you just downloaded
- Locate and delete "Vendor.XML" from your PC C: drive
- Connect the BB, start Desktop Manager. The upgrade should start. If no, start Applicaiton Loader within Desktop Manager
That's the whole deal. Good luck.
