Make sure your vendor.xml file is deleted in the apploader folder when Desktop Manager 4.7.0.32 is installed.

UPDATE:

The sleuths at HowardForums have pointed out that if you’re having issues, you may have to hack around the application’s Configuration.xml file by changing <database name=”  and <logging station=”enabled” to “false”. Once again, do so at your own risk! If you’re getting an Oracle error, try disconnecting from the internet. Another thing they’ve pointed out after rooting around the app’s insides is that the Storm might not be supported! One post is already reporting this result, but if any brave souls are willing to try it out on the Storm, please do and let us know how it turns out, good or bad!

    Are you sure this doesn’t damage the internal software of the BlackBerry?

    I’ve been trying all day with no luck - though many have reported in forums that it does work. Min keeps failing when installing an MEI file. In response to Paul, as yet, there has been no damage that could not be reversed by simply reloading the OS from the Desktop Manager.

Tell me what's on your mind :)
