I have an ATT (Cingular) BB 7290 currently runing OS 4.1.0.292 (Platform 1.8.0.144) with the DST patch applied. I downloaded OS 4.1.0.377 (Platform 1.8.0.154) and tried to install it.

I got an error saying that the currently installed OS was newer than the one I was trying to install.

The current OS isn't giving me any problems, but I always like to have the latest OS.

Any ideas? I did search, but couldn't seem find anyone with this problem.

Many thanks in advance.

not sure why it is doing that but if you MUST have it try this:
backup your data using desktop manager
pull battery out
start DM (make sure you have this new OS installed on the computer and I would delete vendor.xml even though you are on that carrier, just to be safe)
connect your BB (no battery still)
DM will prompt you to install the OS
once it is going, re-insert the battery without bumping the cable

Many thanks for the help. I'll try that.
