I don't think that 48 issue software updates for any phone - never mind the Blackberry.

If an update is available can't you get it from the Blackberry support site or something?

Hope this helps.

Yes but those carriers sell phones so roll out software updates to them. 48 don't. I'd imagine you can get the updates directly from BlackBerry though?

yeah, whenever a new BB OS comes out, it is not up to the network provider to release it.

you'll have to visit the blackberry site and just download it to your phone; i guess?

get back and let us know for sure.

I'm pretty sure that only carriers who provide BlackBerry handsets will roll this out.

48 do not provide any handsets at all and I'm pretty certain that they will not be rolling this - or any other handset firmware update - out.

You'll have to get it through some other means.

Edit: isn't this it - i.e. how to update via the PC and BlackBerry Link if you can't do an OTA (over the air) update?

I get what your on about but I tried ota and BlackBerry Link and nothing works!! Nowhere to download so I might try a new sim from meteor because I know they have released it

Don't you have to install the BlackBerry Link software on your pc and use that to do the update?

You can do it both ways and none have worked

I don't think 48 are going to help here so.
But log a support request to see if they can help at all.

I don't know why that is.

BlackBerry certainly suggest that a non OTA update will work through their software.

Maybe contact them about it?

Perhaps they have a support forum or something?

Hope this helps.
