Updating my Blackberry Curve

stev2604

Hi all,

Last year while in Canada I bought a Curve (8520 I think) on the cheap. Everything is fine, except that the OS is version 4, meaning it's incompatible with Facebooks Blackberry app.

I no longer have the CD included with the phone and when I try to download and install it it doesn't work for some reason.

Basically what I'm looking for is somewhere in Cork that can update my blackberry to OS5 for me, and if anyone knows if/how much they'll charge?

Any info would be appreciated.

Have a look here:

It's a fairly simple thing to do. Any problems post back.

When I try to do step 2, it tells me it can't find the folder?

What operating system are you using on your pc? If it's windows 7 look in:
c:\program files (x86)\common files\research in motion\apploader
