Please verify your Internet connection or try again later, if the problem persists" or your using the apploader doesn't show the newer downloaded version of the OS. What to do in this case? The answer is simple.

Don't use the desktop software to update your OS. If its opened, close it and disconnect your blackberry. Go to C drive then Prpgram files(86) to Common files to Research In Motion to App loader. You would have already deleted the Vendor.xml file. And now you are facing an issue even after removing the Vendor.xml file.

Once deleted, re run App loader, connect Blackberry and Update! All done!
