There are certain times when you may geek out more than you should with your BlackBerry 10 phone and run into some issues. Whether it be a poor-running OS leak, an interrupted security wipe or a somehow nuked device, you may want to downgrade or reload the stock OS. Thankfully, just as in the past, you can still do so on BlackBerry 10.
With older BBOS devices there was a high chance of "nuking" a device for any number of reasons - bad apps, botched restore, bad software, crappy OS leaks ... you name it. On BlackBerry 10 there is really no chance at all that you'll ever need to reload the OS unless you run across a bad leaked OS or happen to stop a security wipe prematurely.
For both the BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 you can restore the OS to stock when you run into any of these issues. The process unfortunately requires a Windows PC (sorry Mac users) but requires only a few steps to complete.
You can reload or downgrade the OS on your BlackBerry 10 device one of two ways.
The Easy Way - Reload BlackBerry 10 OS Using BlackBerry Link
Make sure you have the latest version of BlackBerry Link installed on your Windows PC.
After you reload the device software we recommend setting up the device as new to prevent further issues.
The Harder Way - Reload BlackBerry 10 Using Internet Explorer
If for some reason the above steps don't work using BlackBerry Link you can always reload the OS using Internet Explorer. These steps are a bit trickier so read through and make sure you understand everything before you get started.
Fire It Up!
Now you should have a fresh stock OS installed on your device. If for some reason the device still won't boot, try running through either method again until you get it to restore the OS.
Of course if you run into further issues you can always get more help on reloading in CrackBerry's BlackBerry 10 OS forum.
