JS: a follow-up:
As I noted above in the thread, since bringing home the 8900 from T-Mobile (corp retail store), I loaded .152 beta, then .152 production, and now .168 production on the device -- and never deleted vendor.xml from the PC before doing so. The firmware loaded up right away each time with no complaints.
I just took a look in \Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\...
and found an old Vendor.xml that I must have forgotten to delete earlier from when I still had my 8300 (curioser and curioser). The file date on this is 12/8/2008 -- I'm pretty sure this corresponds to the last time I loaded a 4.5.x.x OS for the 8300 onto the PC.
The Vendor.xml that I found has the following content:
<vendorsrc version="0.0.0.0">
</vendorsrc>
The other files in the same folder have dates such as 2/3/2009 (all the various Loader*.* files and a few others). I'm guessing that Vendor.xml was left over, and not from any of the 3 recent installs I've done.
I'd be curious to see what others have in this folder, and for this file.
