Blackberry Storm 2 Update

Is there a new update for Blackberry Storm 2? Anybody know what the new update number is? And is this a good update with no problems?

Hi Jane,
Sorry for the delay in replying.  
Since the web based loader is not working I will suggest doing the following:
1.  Go to https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=02A32AD2669E6FE298E607FE7CC0E1A0
2. Download the device software for your BlackBerry Storm 9550 5.0.0.712
3. Install the software and press finish once it's done installing.
4. Navigate to the location where Loader.exe is installed. The
default location is C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader.
5. Run Loader.exe. The Application Loader Wizard window
will open.
6. When the Communication Port
Selection window opens, select a PIN number for any one of the BlackBerry
smartphones connected to the personal computer. Click
Next.
7. The Application
Loader Wizard opens the Device Application Selection. Select any additional
languages or applications in the selection window and click
Next.
8. Click
Finish. The BlackBerry smartphone will be upgraded with the
appropriate software.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

  • How can I update my OS5 to OS6.0 for my blackberry storm 8520

    How can I update my OS5 to OS6.0 for my blackberry storm 8520 plz help anyone thanks

    Hello,
    Well, first off...the 8520 is not a Storm, it's a Curve. The 9520 (which you put in your profile here) is a Storm.
    So, if your question is about the 9520, then the answer is never. The Storm line is EOL, and as far as I understand, development stopped on the OS in the 5.0 range, and will never move beyond.
    Good luck!

    Hi my blackberry storm is out of charge and has turned off.
    I only have the USB cable to connect it to my laptop. Can I charge it via my laptop by connecting this cable.
    I would appreciate your urgent help.

    Hi!
    If you have already installed the BB USB drivers on your PC, then yes you can charge via USB. If you have not installed them, you can obtain them here:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    For charging only, you don't need the entire desktop software suite...just the USB drivers alone is enough for charging via USB.

  • BlackBerry Storm and Macs

    I recently purchased a BlackBerry Storm and I had some questions about it working with my Mac. I noticed in the support pages that I would have to update my OSx 4.5 to OSX 5.0 or something higher in order to use the software to be able to get my Itunes on my BlackBerry. I am willing to do that. It's not that expensive but I want to know that if I do that, will that take care of some issues I am having. Pocket Mac does not work for me. If I run OSX 5.5 and above will that take care of the problem and allow me to sync my Mac and BlackBerry? Will I be able to run the program that allows me to put my ITunes on my BlackBerry? Right now I am running version 10.4.11 on a Power Book G4.
    I love the phone and am still getting used to it and all the features.
    Thanks in advance for answering my questions.

    Paid for iTunes will not (those purchased iTunes). You can remove the DRM from the purchased iTunes and they will work fine on the BB.

  • Blackberry Media Manager NOT working for Blackberry storm (wont install on computer)

    Hello 2months ago I got a Blackberry storm. Its a good phone but I have one problem that would make it much better. When I try installing the desktop manager, everything installs besides the Roxio Media manager. It gives me an error and cancels the installation of Roxio and continues with the other stuff. I really want to transfer Photos and Videos from my phone to my computer and vice-versa. Please tell me what I can do to install the Media Manager to get the device working. I am not using the CD's to install, i downloaded it from the blackberry website. The english version WITH media manager, and I even clicked Custom install and made sure it was planning to install it.
    My error is this:
     Error 1402.Could not find key:
    UNKNOWN/ComCtl3.CoolBar/CLSID
    Verify you have sufficient access to the key , or contact your support personelle.
    What does that mean I have to do? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    You don't need Roxio nor Media Manager to transfer files to/from your BB. Follow these instructions and be sure to download the version of Desktop Manager that is without either of those...
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=BlackBerryDesktopSoftware&thread.id=3...
    With that, you'll be able to have 2 additional drive letters on your Windows PC and you can drag-and-drop just like any other drive on your machine. Slick.
    Cheers!

    Also, check that you are using only root USB ports...no hubs (sometimes the front-side ports are hubs...use a rear USB port). And make sure to try disabling USB power management in your system configuration (Device Manager).
    Also check on conflicting software...it has been reported that the software package NTI Shadow&Ninja can cause a conflict; removing them and reinstalling the BB desktop software allows it to install correctly.
    Apologies in advance if this is redundant -- there's no way to be sure if you've already seen and tried these. Also apologies if any are not presently available...RIM takes them up and down at will as they revise things.
    Hopefully something there is helpful!

  • Using a Blackberry Storm 2 9550 with a Netgear wireless modem MBR624GU

    Very recently I got the BlackBerry Storm2 (9550) and I have a Netgear 3G broadband wireless router, model# MBR624GU. I was using a USB720 modem and I would just plug it into the router and it would connect to the internet. I can tether the phone and connect to the internet on my desktop but I can't get it to work with the router. I (naive) thought I would be able to just plug the Storm 2 to my Netgear router and it would just connect - I was very wrong!!!! I have looked through a lot of posts but cannot find my particular problem. My first question is "Does the Blackberry Storm 2 work with the Netgear wireless router, model# MBR624GU? If it does, how do I get it to connect to the internet when I have the phone plugged into it? Thanks for any input!!!!!!!!!

    Hmmm... Do I follow your post correctly that you are wanting to run the NetGear wireless router FROM the Storm, in order to broadcast the Wifi for your laptop to recieve the WiFi signal?
    The Storm receives the WiFi signal, not the reverse.
    Like this:
    DSL/Cable signal with Internet >> Router >> WiFi signal >> BlackBerry Storm.
    Not the reverse.

  • Blackberry Storm 2 (9550) Pairing Issue

    This thread has probably been posted before, but if I'm having this problem then it is likely that others are as well.
    I have a Blackberry Storm 2 (9550) and I cannot get it to connect to my car's factory-installed bluetooth system. When I try to add the car as a bluetooth device, it recognizes that there is a signal present (it will say "audio device"), but when I try to pair with the audio device it always fails. I have tried rebooting the phone (including battery removal), rebooting the car, and nothing seems to work.
    I understand that my phone is not specifically listed as compatible with my vehicle (2007 Dodge Charger), but I have been able to pair other phones (approximately 7 different co-worker and family phones), and most of them were not listed as compatible. In fact, it seems as though this Storm 2 is the only phone that will not pair with it. This is extremely frustrating given the amount of money paid for this phone.
    I pay the extra money for a premium phone so that I don't have to deal with these small issues. I expect the technology to be top-notch, and I expect that there would be no connectivity/compatibility issues. I am hoping that there is a solution to this, as I am not even close to qualifying for a phone upgrade, and my wife would hang me if I went out and dropped $500 on a new Droid.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you in advance!

    Lets try 4 steps to resolve this issue.
    1, Could I get you to power the phone off, remove and replace the battery to do a soft reset on the device.
    2. Then could I get you to dial *228 send and option 2 again in your home area to update the PRL.
    3. Next could I get you to try un-pairing the device and car then pairing the two again.
    4. After you have done this if still unsuccessful we can try a factory reset (after you have backed up your phone)
    a. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.
    b. Click Security Options.
    c. Click General Settings.
    d. Press the Menu key.
    e. Click Wipe Handheld.
    f. To delete all third-party applications from your device, select the Include third-party applications check box.
    g. Click Continue.
    h. Type blackberry.

  • Blackberry torch 9800 recognized as blackberry storm 2. by OPERA mini

    May I know why OPERA mini is recognizing my torch as blackberry storm 2 9520. & it is not possible change device?

    Probably because Opera has not updated it's registry of devices?
    That's probably why, and for Opera the 9520 is the closest to the 9800 it knows.

  • BlackBerry OS 6 Update Inquiry

    Does anyone yet know a viable "guesstimate" of the OS 6 rollout for other models of BlackBerry's other than the current 9800 series? I read that there would be a forthcoming rollout to other models but have not been able to find which models or even when this may happen. Just curious. Thanks for any information anyone is able to provide.
    P.S. I love my BlackBerry (Storm 2 9550) and switched from a Motorola Droid (1st generation). It is much lighter, faster and doesn't have near the "quirks" the Droid did.

    Hi,
    I do know that Verizon is set to release some software updates for the Bold, Tour, and Curve 8530 this evening at about 6PM Eastern time.  I am not sure if it will be the 6.0 release or not.  We shall see.
    Doc
    ******************Update*****************
    I just read another post where a Bold user states he has wireless download of 5.0.0.975 available.  So, I guess 6.0 is not in the cards for now.
