Hey there Czabless
Unfortunately a hard reset will not work you will have to reload the software to your device. In order to do that you will need to download and install both the blackberry desktop manager as well as the blackberry device software to your computer.
KB11320 - Clean reload with desktop software
KB16251 - Clean Reload without desktop manager software
These should give you what you need to get rid of this error message
*Note if you are running VIsta or Win 7 make sure you turn off the User Account Controls as this will help the installation process go a whole lot smoother.

  • Blackberry Curve 8900 Reload Software 552

    I was just downloading the BoA mobile app when this horrendous thing happened. So i went to the AT&T store and they said they couldn't help me. The useless man then directed me to go download the software and told me it would work. However, the software wont recognize my blackberry and there is nothing I can do. HELP

    You are going to need to reload the OS on your device.  Your data is lost, unfortunately, as there is no way to back it up at this point.
    Here are instructions on how to reload the software.

  • Reload software: 552 error; cannot reload OS

    Hi. I am getting this error message on my Curve 8900:
    Reload software: 552
    I have read several threads advising how to fix this, but the problem is that they all require me to connect the device to my computer and reload the OS. But since I upgraded to a desktop computer running Win 7, I have never successfully connected the device to the computer except in mass media mode. I just re-downloaded the desktop software and it still won't recognize the device. So I have a device that needs the OS and all applications reloaded, and no way to do that. Suggestions?

    Hello !
    If you have already done that, then what you can do is resatart your PC.
    Once rebooted then firstly, connect your USB Cable with your BlackBerry Smartphone.
    And now open your BlackBerry Desktop Software.
    Hope this resolves your Problem!

  • HELP! Reload Software 552 Error??

    Hi, I just was configuring, and on my phone. Then it says "Phone has to reboot" so I did. And now it comes up in a blank white screen saying Reload Software 552. Please help. I really don't know how I can do this, and my Windows Installer won't work so if you can help me with that to. PLEASE HELP ASAP I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER PHONE.

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    1) Is this a new device still under warranty? If so you can return it and get a NIB (new in the Box) replacement.
    2) if you cannot replace it, do you have a windows PC, blackberry desktop software and any experiance in reloading phone OS? Do you have a current backup of your phone?
    3) What does the "windows  installer won't work mean?
    4) Tell us every detail you can think of so we can help with the best advice.
    Either way we can get you through fixing the error, Ok?

  • Error Msg - reload software 552

    Hi everyone, Can someone help me pls
    I downloaded the Blackberry Protect, it asked me to reboot. I did and it came back with RELOAD SOFTWARE 552.
    Its not coming on apart from that message. 
    I have tried taking out and putting back both the battery and sim card, nothing is working.
    Please what can i do

    Hi
    This what I did to completely wipe my BB. I wrote this before starting and printed it off.
    If your device is functioning, perform a backup now if you haven't already done so saving the file to a place and in a name that you can easily locate on computer.
    I then uninstalled DTM and then deleted all other references to BB/Rim in Windows Explorer thus removing the OS for the BB from the computer in order to ensure that the version I would reinstall would be a brand new downloaded version.
    Get the latest Desk Top Software
    http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?CPID=OTC-DSKTPSW&cp=OTC-DSKTPSW
    and install it on the computer.
    Get the correct latest version of the OS
    http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    and save it to computer.
    To erase all the data on your BlackBerry device, complete the following steps. This option is available with
    BlackBerry Device Software 3.8 and later.
    1. In the device Options, click Security.
    If you are using BlackBerry Device Software 4.1, click Security Options > General Security.
    2. Click the trackwheel and select Wipe Handheld.
    3. Click Continue.
    4. Type “blackberry”. All the data on the BlackBerry device is erased.
    On some new versions of BlackBerry software, the menu navigation is slightly different.
    1. Go to Options.
    2. Select Security Options.
    3. Select General Settings.
    4. Click the Menu key.
    5. Select Wipe Handheld.
    6. Click Continue.
    7. Type “blackberry”. All the data on the BlackBerry device is erased.
    Launch the new Desk Top Software on the computer
    1. Connect your device to your computer.
    2. On the home screen of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, click Update my device.
    3. Do one of the following:
    * To download an update, click Get update.
    * To view other available versions of the BlackBerry Device Software, click View other versions. If applicable, click another version. Click Install.
    Ensure the new OS is the one you prevously downloaded.
    Do not disconnect the device until the whole process is completed and the device has rebooted.
    After 10 minutes reboot again by removing the battery whilst powered-on and leave it out for a couple of minutes.
    Leave it again for 10 minutes. You should now have a fully functioning BB!

  • Reload Software:552 Problem

    My  Curve 8520 is still "locked up" with the display "Reload Software: 552". I tried using KB18751 to no avail.
    What next? Buy a new phone?

    I'm not sure I've done any wiping or uploading.
    I couldn't determine from your post as to whether or not you had followed the advice in the KB you quoted
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB18751
    Consequently, it was both a question and a statement.
    The advice in the KB is to reload the OS, so are you saying you have done that and it didn't work, or you did do it and have ended up with the error?

I don't even have a password on my device. I'm so confuse about what is happening to my device.

  • Reload Software: 552 AND computer can't connect

    I've been at this trying to fix my phone for 2 days and still nothing.  I installed an app that didn't work (it came up with an error) so I uninstalled it.  I told it to reboot later and then later did a battery pull.  After that, it came on and said "Reload Software: 552" and I can't get it to reload the software.
    I think it has something to do with the drivers.  I have Vista.  It was barely detecting it at first, and when I tried to reinstall it it would always mess up somewhere in the process.  I tried with the battery both in and out.  However, after resetting or when the battery was out, Windows told me it was installing the software driver.  So I thought that I should re-install Desktop Manager.  I redownloaded it, and clicked repair (Maybe I should try "Uninstall," make sure the drivers are deleted, and reinstall it?) and then after that it couldn't detect it at all.  I directed Windows to install driviers directly from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\USB Drivers and it told me "Windows cannot install this because another process is using the file."  I copied the drivers to my flash drive and had it install from there, and it did the same thing without even reading my flash drive so I suspect it's a Windows configuration file that is in use.  So I tried the same thing in Safe Mode, even opened the Task Manager and ended a few processes that don't crash my computer upon doing so, and still it said that.
    Oh, and the AppLoader program doesn't work either.  The device box is blank and the check box to scan for devices is grayed out no matter what I do.  Even installing Desktop Manager using WINE for Linux doesn't work.
    So I am completely out of alternatives.  Any idea what I should do?

    Wow... so it's not just me?
    Paco, I'm on the THIRD phone that has done this. I've been on these forums looking for help.
    But I'm seeing something I hadn't seen before: someone else who: added a program and removed it... .is running Windows Vista (I'm using SP2)..... and the machine will NOT recognize the phone when the reload is attempted!
    I have no answer for you (yet). I'm pretty upset with my carrer (T-mobile).... Why, with all the people I had to tell of my issue, does NO ONE see this as a problem? (Um.. Ma'am.. have you recently loaded a program? Which one(s)?)
    If we can find a resolution, I would rather go back to my 8220! I am not so happy with this 8520!
