You can go to BB website and download the MAPS again it works, also what version of 4.5 did you download?

lesson to Burgaz, always backup your info via BBDM or BES before upgrading firmware. with 4.5 STILL in beta not official via provider or RIM its going to have issues with just a few apps not working. Not sure why.
well ppl I had my second interview at RIM in water loo and man did they have some SERIOUS questions for me. I was totally ill prepared, how can you prepare for behavioural questions or tech questions non related to BES, server, sql in depth?! Why does Exchange have group names?! Totally lost, and saddened because I think I bombed!
* well at least I learned something and know that I have a LOT more to learn beside my experience with BB or BES from the support side or user side. I guess I should've realized since University of Waterloo is right across the street from RIM's various bldg headquarters. I know in 4wks.

I've tried that. Just before it starts to down load the file a messages comes up saying my device doesn't meet the system requirements?
I downloaded 4.5.0.37. And yes i did delete the vendor file before installing it.
I did back up my device before the update. But i thought restoring it wouldn't change the o/s bak to 4.2? Would it?

vendor.xml file needs to be deleted EACH time you download & install a firmware for your particular phone model that it supports. There maybe another file to adjust I think - cannot recall it at the moment; may be irrelevant.
When you backup, its not he firmware thats backed up but the db's for the apps and the apps that are backedup & content (Address Book listing for Burgaz - all the contact #'s, email, Photo. Same for saved maps of BBMaps is also backed up if selected or part of FULL Backup. Even the browsers cache - if not previously cleared out).

Right i'm back on 4.2 and waiting for the official release of 4.5!
Don't worry i always delete the vendor file. And the back up failed to restore after the downgrade for some reason? Bummer.
Anyways... Has anyone ever got this running on a 8310?
SpeedOmeter A guy on Crackberry says it works fine on his but i've been unsuccessful...
Cheers

Honestly all the reports on CB and even myself point to .37 being pretty much solid, if they work like the computer industry then I would say this is Master Gold.
I have had no memory leaks or crashes, the reception issue in previous versions is pretty much none existent now.
