4.5 Update No Good For ATT 8100
Please Login to Remove!
Very bugy. LED light stays on all the time. Hour glasses for everything. No HTML e-mails, Web browser hangs, no video recording, video player is unresponsive once video is being played. Going back to 4.2.

No 8100 OS will give you video recording - that's not available on the 8100. did you go into your general mail settings to turn HTML on?

When 1st you don't succeed...
Your right. I read the wrong model when I was looking at the list of improvements to the 8100. Blackberry's site has a chart listing whats new or improved with the 4.5 update.
As far as the HTML option, it was not there.
I am going to try it again. This time, I'll let it do a fresh install without restoring any of my aps and see if there is a difference.
Dose anyone know why my LED light would not turn off?
I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but I have a 8100 from Cingular. My friend has a 8100 from ATT and it worked fine for him. I don't know if there were any phicial changes to the device from my Cingular one to his ATT. Ill repost when I finish the install.

DannyPaul, your HTML option won't be there until you follow ALL of the HTML-enable instructions:
http://www.blackberryforums.com/rim-...lackberry.html
You don't need to reinstall anything IF you already have OS 4.5 on your BB, and the additional applications make no difference as does not the ATT/Cingular difference.

Working now.
Your right. I was going to resend my services books before the update because my AOL mail was not working to well. So, yes, after the service books were resent, I was able to turn on the HTML. Even got a new AOL mail icon (Green Envelope)
Can the 8100 now handle more than just avi media files or is that the same?
Still hour glasses a lot.

The title of the post, and the file name of the OS both indicate "East Asia" languages.
So, yes, it contains Chinese.

Ok, Thanks J Clark.
In the past OS, I had to use HK CSL (chinese) because previous multilanguage OS didnt have it, now its marked East Asia.
Now I can have the latest update unlike HK CSL which is still a few OS behind.

English Only
MultiLanguage (includes English and European Languages)
East Asian (Includes Chinese, Japanese and Korean, etc. and English)

Blackberry 8100 4.5 OS Update
While installing the new OS it gave a communication error, and windows said that it doesn't recognize the device. My screen is black and the LED is flashing red. What do I do?
