OS 5.0.0.230 for the BlackBerry Tour has been leaked. My guess is that, with the increasing frequency that we are seeing leaked 5.0 releases of the BlackBerry OS, it won’t be long before RIM and the various carriers get around to officially releasing it.
As always, leaked OS updates are unsupported, so, if you plan to install 5.0.0.230, make sure that you know what you are doing and that you get a good backup of your Tour before you start.
Wow, tempting… but I am not going to rush to do this upgrade. I think I will wait a little longer.
I am a bit confused: what is the difference between the Blackberry Bold 9000 and the Blackberry Tour? I can not seem to find one by looking at them.
Sorry for being such a newby, but many thanks for your answer.
The BlackBerry Bold is a 3G GSM device that came out on AT&T last year and it has Wi-Fi.
The BlackBerry Tour is a CDMA Device that came out on Verizon this year and it has no Wi-Fi.
Thanks for your time and the update.
newby = newbie!
ouch…
Took the plunge. This OS rocks. Very, very fast.
Loaded it up. Facebook is not compatible at this time but the sms is really sweet
bold, tour and the new curve (and even the future bold) all look alike! crap…
I have not been successful with loading it – any ideas??
It’s gone I was 2 days too late and now the leaked 5.0 for the Tour is gone. I love the 5.0 BBM I wish Rim would just get on with it and release the goodies!
I have it installed for storm 9530 with app world and face book fix….a lot fucken better that 4.7.0.148
