Hey Guys , Sorry to say but all of you need to aware about the most important thing that your handset software is totally Corrupt & now you can't backup your handset, only whoever is able to connect to the desktop manager & also have internet, can update or upgrade their handset software online . This is the only solution we have till date.

Plz send it for repairing if it is under warranty !

Plz don't wait for any more solutions & just follow whether I said.

hello guys,

you need a new software to fix the jvm error 545

This solution did not help because the Desktop Software could not connect to the Blackberry because it was initializing (that's all it does upto the error message).
