This for the 8310, and will work on any 8310 from any carrier.

Package Version: 4.5.0.92
Consisting of:

• Applications: 4.5.0.69
• Software Platform: 2.7.0.72
• File name: 8310M_PBr4.5.0_rel92_PL2.7.0.72_A4.5.0.69.ex e
• File size: 74MB

Download here: Click here
After clicking on that link, click "United Kingdom" for English Users, or choose the country of your choice, etc.
In the next window, click FREE DOWNLOADS
Then, Click "RIM Devices" and find the 8310

Instructions for installing on ANY carrier's 8310:

1. Make sure you have Desktop Manager 4.2 SP2 or higher installed.
BlackBerry - Desktop Software - BlackBerry Desktop Software at BlackBerry.com
2. Download the above file to the PC then install it to the PC by running the file you downloaded.
3. Locate the vendor.xml file and delete it. It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
4. Plug in BB and Open Desktop Manager. You should be prompted to upgrade.
The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how much data you have to backup and restore during the process. Once it's done loading the new OS it will reboot (it may do this twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with an hourglass for up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization."
If you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply connect to DM again and run application loader again and it should load the OS to the device.

Wow!! T-Mobile is on the ball!!!

[mckinneycm]

For AT&T users, do we still have to use the old version of BB Maps in order to have it active??

This is not TMobile US, though. (Not that it matters)

[mckinneycm]

Hey John, I forgot. How do I get the old maps again? Thanks.

[JSanders]

Tmobile EU apparently released .69 for many 8xxx devices, no xx20 however.

[mckinneycm]

Ha, I always forget also, and have to go read JC's thread.

[JerseyMarine]

ok thanks guys....

Any major improvement over 4.5.0.55? I've been pretty stable since I installed it and wondering whether to upgrade again. (Although, I admit, I was wondering when an upgrade would come out since I think .55 was the third of three in about 2 weeks and it's been almost 2 months now.)

I have searched this on the forums but can't seem to find the correct answer but the Status / About screen does not work and i noticed a few others like some apps have auto check for new versions but it doesn't work. Someone did mentioned that you can fix it but i can't seem to find the thread for it.

Did you uninstall Voice Dialing? That will get rid of the About screen as well.

[SmoothRunnings]

The download link does not work, it keeps asking me for a username and password. Can someone post the correct link?

Thanks

Update: I was able to figure it out, the instructions were not very clear.

yup I did, wonder if that will solve some of the other glitches I have here.

[sandsjh]

what are the chances of going from 4.2.2 to 4.5.0.92 [1] crashing my theme and [2] modifying all of my options? I will use desktop manager and not JL Commander...

[sandsjh]

I have 8310M_PBr4.5.0_rel108_PL2.7.0.78_A4.5.0.81.exe... is that not higher?
