The Nuked Berry Problem
My Nuked Berry...just a second before the display shuts off
and the device reboots itself, again and again and again
Requirements/Disclaimer
- you are using a Windows Computer
- have BlackBerry Desktop Manager installed
- have the BlackBerry Operating System you want to install/reload onto your Nuked BlackBerry installed
How to Reload the OS on a Nuked BlackBerry
Step 1: Browse your way into the AppLoader Directory, and Open the Loader Application
The Loader Homescreen. You can Click Next to Continue
After you click next, Loader Waits for you to Connect the Device.
Proceed to Step #2
Connect Your BlackBerry via USB. Click NEXT as Soon as USB:UNKNOWN Appears
Tip: With Battery Out, Connect BlackBerry to USB.
This will give you more control in nailing the timing of
connecting Next while USB:UNKOWN displays
Step #3: With your BlackBerry now out of the permanent reboot sequence, you are essentially in the clear and well on your way to having your BlackBerry up and running again. Choose the options you want to install on your BlackBerry (BrickBreaker, BlackBerry Messenger, BlackBerry Maps, etc.), click next, then approve the installation by clicking 'Finish.' Sit back and relax while the BlackBerry does its thing. It'll take some time and go through a number of screens but eventually you will reach my favorite 'The loading operation was successful' screen. Your BlackBerry will reboot itself at this point and it will take a LONG time to reboot (10 - 15 minutes or so). You can unplug it from the USB (it's not connected while rebooting) and just continue to sit back and wait. Get scared, but not too scared...it will eventually boot up.
Select the OS options you want to install
Approve the Operating System Installalation Options
Sit back and relax and let the installer do its thing
