Your themes won't work for OS6 cause there's no theme creator and the themes you have are only compatible with OS5.

Your apps will still be there if you do a backup in Desktop Manager or BBSAK.

I am so fucking pissed off with bbm.

So essentially I missed my monday class where the prof was going over what might be on the exam. Someone from my class told me what was on it, and when I sit down to study today, I notice that the conversation is missing. What's even worse is he's no longer my contact WHICH DELETES MY FUCKING CONVERSATION WITH HIM. I figured, his BB was stolen, because I called him and his phone was off. This is definetly the stupidest feature on bbm. Why does it delete a conversation I had with someone.

Fucking bunk as fuck.. My phone still has memory leaks after I used the Rogers OS6 -__-

i have a bb 9000 and its on OS4 but i read there is OS5 that is available but it won't let me update from my desktop. Saying that its not on blackberry service and I dont have data as well

jeedee 04-05-2011 05:03 PM

Just update it manually through BBSAK.

Updating from desktop has the shittiest and laggiest versions. Do it manually.

Here's a link for OS5 for the 9000:

If you need any help, just ask :)

BaoTurbo 04-05-2011 05:21 PM

Can I just hand it to you :troll:

Edit: after download so do I just drag it in? I don't see instructions

jeedee 04-05-2011 05:34 PM

Sure. I'll do it for free :troll:

So you downloaded the OS? Now just open it and install it to your computer. This is so BBSAK will recognize the OS when you open it. It won't recognize it cause you haven't installed the OS yet.

Here's some better steps:

Step-by-step Guide
1. Always backup your phone. Backup your phone using Desktop Manager.
2. You can backup your 3rd party apps too if you want but I usually don't. I will do a fresh download of those apps to be on the safe side.
3. Plug in the cable to your phone and run BBSAK.
4. You will see a box to enter the password. If you don't have a password, leave it blank and press OK. If you have a password, key in the password and press OK.
5. You will be able to see your BlackBerry PIN at the PIN box if the phone is connected correctly to BBSAK.
6. Search for the option to Wipe Device and it will prompt you if you are sure to wipe. If you have not backup your phone (or forgotten to), this is a good time to exit and backup first.
7. Press Wipe Device and wait until the box appear saying Wipe Complete.
8. The phone will reboot and you will then proceed to a white screen. It will prompt you Error 507. Do not panic and follow the next step and don't unplug the cable.
9. If you have the desired OS installed in your computer, select the option for Load OS.
10. From here, everything is straight forward and just follow the instructions.

Downloaded BBSAK. Loaded everything. Cannot detect phone.

jeedee 04-05-2011 05:54 PM

...Did you connect your phone to the USB then try opening BBSAK? lol

If not your phone probably isn't on mass storage mode. There should be a pop up on your phone when you connect it that says "mass storage mode is not turned on, would you like to turn it on?" or something like that?

BaoTurbo 04-05-2011 05:59 PM

It's supposedly in mass storage mode already when I set it :S

Downloading bb desktop manager

BaoTurbo 04-05-2011 06:38 PM

Done everything. Looking good so far and everything expected. Thanks for the help

jeedee 04-05-2011 06:49 PM

Awesome to hear. Just make sure you do some battery pulls once in a while after the OS upgrade. It allows the battery to settle in.

BaoTurbo 04-05-2011 07:01 PM

Weeeeeee. Finally it's not set by date texts and its so much more convenient. Newer interface too

saucywoman 04-12-2011 10:50 AM

Look for the unopen facebook in message icon. The fonts should be bolded from others.

And does anyone know how to fix the bold watching youtube vids over wifi? I been getting sever blocked or not responding.

I'm on Fido with my 9780, would that mean I have to download the leaked OS? Fido doesn't have official releases on blackberry devices

You only have to download a leaked OS if you want to upgrade...so it's up to you. I don't think Fido has ever officially released an OS :lol . So to answer your question you have to download a leaked OS if you want to upgrade your phone

On a side note...whats with people without the 9700 posting in the 9700 thread? lol

just bought a used 9700 today :D
its an unlocked mobilicity running os 6 and im on fido but the carrier says "302-720". it doesnt affect how the phone works but its just weird to see.. anyone know why?

josayeee 04-21-2011 11:14 PM

^^thats normal because you are using unlocked phone. if you get a newer sim card it should say fido. my advice is sell the mobilicity one as you cant use 3g. buy a rogers/bell/telus 9700 and have it unlocked for free at www.freemyblackberry. com

Teh Doucher 04-25-2011 11:07 PM
