Hey guys,

Really need help. I'm using bold 9000, but when i try to upgrade the new OS, i'm always stuck at "connect to boot rom". Seems, my bold keep rebooting. I have tried many ways to resolved this..unfortunately, i already wipe my bold and currently no OS running on it. Please guys..im really need your help or advise on this.

after delete the xml file, double click the loader.exe

Hey Thank you very much for a wonderful guide. Just follow the steps and am sure the OS updating process will go without a hitch.

Just remember to always delete the vendor.xml before opening the loader.exe.

Thanks for this guide TS!

need help here, how come in my vista ultimate i could not find C:\Users\Username\appdata\virtualstore. i did follow the instruction by deleting the XML files but still unable to upgrade my OS please help?

I cannot find Loader.exe on my computer. I only found this "LOADER.EXE-0CA10F00.pf". what is this? I can't even open it..

Been trying to upgrade my bb for the pass month till I come to this post..got my ver 5 now..Thanks to all..

I've just downloaded OS from BB website for Celcom. Im not so sure which is the latest. Just take the most top one. What should I do next ? I read using DM is hard so planning to use loader.What is loader.exe ? IS it the file I downloaded ? And just run the file is it ?

Current version : v5.0.0.442
Downloaded version : 9700jEastAsia_PBr5.0.0_rel1254_PL5.1.0.165_A5.0.0.743_Celcom_Malaysia.exe (dunno version.guess 743)

reason upgrade : cannot receive mms but can send mms out.

Should i stick with old version or upgrade.

Thanks guys

yup, u are downloading the newer version of OS, the bigger last 3 or 4 digit, the newer the version it is. MMS receiving and sending might not due to OS, but the OS version upgrade is most likely due to few reason below:
1. bug improvement
2. better battery life
3. smoother run
4. just for fun.

upgrade or not is all base on ur personal "feel" or i should say, observation. if ur bb are working fine, just stick to the version. but most ppl like to upgrade, just to try the new version out.
Loader.exe is something similar to app loader in DM, but u dont have to open the desktop manager to run it. just run the file and follow the step will do.

thanks tzecss for the reply. last night found out celcom got prob with their network till 1145 pm. but this morning try sending mms to own no also fail. have to call celcom today. its been a week already. wonder what wrong. my BB or their network ?
