There are three things to download:
1. VSM file "VSM-09712-002"
2. MML Installation h++p://rapidshare.de/files/45231476/MMLSetup.msi.html
3. MML Data (Torrent Download) h++p://www.mininova.org/tor/2125273
1 Install the MML software onto your computer
2 Copy the additional MML data files to C:\MML - Overwrite all the original files
3 Disable the Internet of your computer
4 Open up MFI and select auto start on and full erase off <-- VERY IMPORTANT!!!
5 Connect your BB Curve
6 Let it do its thing until you see fail on your BB screen and you see "1" on your Curve
7 Unplug your Curve, close and open again MFI and deselect auto start
8 With MFI opened, hold on your computer/laptop keyboard "ctl+shift+alt+f12" and once the hidden menu comes up in MFI, plug in your Curve
9 Hit "Load VSM" and locate the VSM file
10 Its going to say "VSM Loaded Succesfully" in less than a second or two
11 Close MFI, and type "start" using the qwerty on your Curve it will say "No Application Linked Factory OS"
12 Turn on the Internet again and open up Desktop Manager
13 Go on Application Loader and load the OS onto the Curve again |
Thanks for instructions.
I downloaded MFI through rapidshare.com (found through google) and have installed it on my machine.
When running, the MFI screen comes up but it can't detect my blackberry (there is an instruction to connect the device to begin). Blackberry desktop sees the device OK. Therea re no other buttons or menus,a side from the two for auto-start and full erase, so I'm stuck. The blackberry itself does nothing, it doesn't acknowledge any running process.
Does anyone know what's causing this, and how I fix? Blackburn 8700g currently branded UK O2, Windows 7 machine.
Thanks
