If you want to update your BB device to 7.1 ( if applicable) without waiting the operator confirmation or approval (as they do), just follow these steps:
1- Download software exe from BlackBerry Official site ( about 254 MB)
2- Install the exe it on your machine ( PC or Mac)
3- search for file named "Vendor.xml" in your system. For Windows it will be located on two possible places : C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
and in
C:\Users\Mohamed\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
4- Delete these files
5- Open "Loader.exe" from the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader"
6- Enjoy upgrading your BB :)
Tested on my BB new Curve 9360
Don't forget to backup your device before anything :)
