You are about to make the best choice of BlackBerry service network, I have tried them all, and Etisalat is the best on all fronts.

and yes i have deskyop manager already on my system and i have tried updating and it keeps giving me am on latest os 7.0 also my fone too same 7.0 as d latest os.

my fone is 9810 i didnt even see it on d list of fone on d dropbox for d link u gave me.

waiting........

Pls guys,wat does it mean for a fone to be branded and unbranded? And which is good for use?

Koolefe: Pls guys,wat does it mean for a fone to be branded and unbranded? And which is good for use?

Branded - supplied and possibly locked to a particular network
Unbranded - Not supplied to any network, direct supply from manufacturer

None is better than the other, but buying branded just gives you an idea of original source.
Others might differ from my opinion.

If blackberry.com does not have an update to 7.1, your online option is an offline upgrade. I am sorry, I do not do offline upgrades. Hopefully someone will pick the baton from me!!!

You need to go into your message display and actions, and change it to forever (email )
Open a text message, click on options and scroll to validity period and change it to max

Offline upgrade simply means downloading files unto your computer and transferring to your device.
If your Etisalat upgrade is successful, it would work, whatever the network sim card you insert.

What you should be looking for is VALIDITY PERIOD, and also set to maximum.
Once done, you can keep all those special text messages and emails forever!

if apploader won't help, use the desktop manager to install it.
although, you would need to back up your files before doing that.
