I later installed my SIM and used it for a weekend to test it. Everything worked. Evidently the results would have been different if I had tried to do the upgrade using Desktop Manager.
Same here. I had the same error message and even using loader.exe it would not allow me to upgrade. So I backed up the settings, wiped the device with JL_Cmder, upgraded and put the settings back. No hassles there.

Only problem: Opera does not seem to have a version for OS 5 yet.
