OK guys, you know the drill.  We’ve got a new leak of OS 5.0.0.1041 for both the Storm 9530 and the Tour 9630 today.  Personally, I always find it encouraging to see that RIM is still working on OS development for devices as old as these two (the 9530 is over two years old now).  [...]

It’s no BlackBerry 6, but Verizon has come out with a consolation prize for 9550 owners in the form of 5.0.0.1015.  This leaked out a few weeks ago, but if you’ve been waiting to get it, I can tell you that it is worth the upgrade. After you’ve upgraded, don’t forget to update your profile [...]

Well this is weird.  As if a consolation that we will not be getting BlackBerry 6 on our phones, we’ve gotten another OS5 leak for the Storm2 9550.  The new leak is version 5.0.0.1015.  No, that’s not a typo.  I’ve never seen a 4-digit build leak out before, but it probably won’t have many new [...]

Another day, another OS leak for the Storm-lovers out there.  Not content to let the Storm 2 get all of the leak love this week, OS 5.0.0.871 has leaked out for the 9530.  It’s nice to see that RIM hasn’t abandoned the Storm, even if it is almost 2 years old. As always, after you’ve [...]

It’s been a big 24 hours for OS releases on the Storm2.  Not long after the last leak of 5.0.0.895, the 9550 gets official with 5.0.0.983 from Inland Cellular.  Not to be left too far behind, Vodafone UK has today released 5.0.0.973 for the 9520.  Because both of these are official releases from carriers, you [...]

Well, it’s been awhile since we’ve had a leak for the 9550, but we finally have one.  I can barely remember the next time I upgraded my phone.  Today, us patient 9550 owners get 5.0.0.895 which, if you’re keeping score, puts us ahead of the other Storm leaks.  Initial impressions on Twitter seem to be [...]

Well, it looks like the 9530 is getting some new OS love today.  China Telecom has officially released 5.0.0.724 for the 9530, and you can download it from the link below.  If you’re not a China Telecom customer, but still want this update, you’ll be able to install it on your device once you’ve removed [...]

Storm1 users are getting all the love so far this week.  On Monday, Vodafone Germany released 5.0.0.841 for the 9500 and today we have 5.0.0.797 for the 9530.  This puts both of the Storm1 models firmly ahead of the 5.0.0.713 available for the 9550/9520 users.  Right now, all I have for downloading is the BBHybrids [...]

I’m not gonna lie… I had to read this headline a few times to make sure I saw it right.  Looks like those of you with a Storm1 9500 have just jumped to the top spot for OS versions among Storm users.  Vodafone Germany has officially released 5.0.0.841 for the 9500, and you can download [...]

Some much-awaited leak-love for those of you with your 9530s.  This weekend, OS 5.0.0.685 leaked out for the 9530.  It’s always nice to see that RIM hasn’t completely forgotten about the Storm1 faithful.  This release doesn’t bring them up to the Storm2′s 713, but it’s closer than you were last week.  To download, hit the [...]
