Is this an upgrade to 5.0.0.610 I am currently running on my 9000 on AT&T? LOL

they need to come out OS 5 or roll out OS 6 with the bold when it is available.

What a joke!

Really...!? Really...!?
It's a shame at&t has left us Bold 9000 owners so behind. It's made me so bored and apathetic about Blackberry in general. I try to remember it's not RIMs fault, but when I get a new phone this summer or fall, it's going to be something I know will be updated often (most likely not a Blackberry).

Ok, so to all the at&t Bold 9000 owners: What's the best version of 5? I got too fed up trying to keep up with the leaks that I stopped and went back to the official release. Now that the dirt's settled and there's not really any more leaks... which is the overall best version of 5?

Mine's been pretty stable. Even got Quick Pull to work again with their new beta fix for it.

I've heard the .610 is good too.

Wasn't this already pushed to the phone because I am running 4.6.0.304 now and have been since way back.. .May as well just update to 5.0

Are there really any noticeable improvements going from 4.6.0.297 to .304? Seriously? I mean I understand pushing it to .167 users but if you're sticking to 4.6 (I don't know why you would) and you're on .297 already, I don't think it's even worth the hassle to "sidegrade" to .304.

Um, that's "reins", not "reigns".

Killing off the "80,000" Bold 9000 users, I salute you *sarcasm*

(I own a 9000 :))

Im tired of waiting for an official AT&T OS release!! Can someone give me a working link to a .610 download please?

AT&T might as well not releasing an O.S. than giving us 9000 users this last century os

I've have had 4.6.0.304 for a LONG time now. Uploadeded it Officially so why would they bother to re-release it again?

4.6.0.304 has already been on the 9000

I already have 4.6.304 on my Bold

Way to be on the stick ATT, monkey nuts!

I gave up waiting on att around the end of January, and am very glad I did. 5.0 is way better than 4.6, and I'm running .610 now. I don't recall if its someone's official release or not, I guess maybe not. I didn't notice a difference from .592, but I didn't run that for long.

I am having some problems though, but may be the hardware or 3rd party apps. My phone sometimes reboots by itself, especially when I use it plugged into the charger. Also when it's pluggeg in, I get a lot of electrical noise interference making a bluetooth headset connection inoperable and the plug-in headset noisy. I boot up with about 10 mb free, and it normally leaks down to zero within 2 or 3 hours. This requires a reboot, which discharges about 20% of the battery. Since I use the device a lot, I have to charge it up at least three times a day. I can't leave it charging over night, because it sometimes perpetually reboots when charging while powered on, making the alarm useless. I got the battery replaced toward the end of the warranty a few months ago, but I wonder if it was a problem with the device instead. I'm getting pretty tired of these issues and have been considering defecting to a droid, but the announcement that att might be selling the slider next month was of interest and I might hold out for that.

2 questions come to mind, I wonder if anyone here can help with... 1. Do memory leaks come only from apps running, or can anything installed drain the mem?
2. If I cancel my att contract and pay the penalty (mine would be down to $105 now), can I immediately sign a new contract with them and get a discounted new device? Att seems to be the only carrier with a decent signal where I live. Thanks!

AT&T is probably doing this for people that haven't upgraded or are afraid to do so through Desktop Manager and are still stuck at .167. If I remember right .304 was a lot better than 167.
It's beyond comprehension why the don't just release a decent 5.0 version and bypass 4.6 altogether as long as they are pushing an OTA upgrade.

I already posted this today but att sucks with their os updates I have a early version.411 and it has bee working fine att needs to step their game up

I had this pushed to me about two months ago. Is someone in editorial sure they have the right info???????

ahahahahahahAHAHAHAHAHAHAH......BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA SMAWJAHAHWHEIFOA FDASJFLKSAFJEWIOAFJDSLKAFJSA WOMFG OMFG OMFAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. AT&T, you suck royally, you may be a big carrier, but your leveling with your customers is dead last in the game. no wonder their customer happiness is dwarfed by verizon and tmobile, seriously at&t, if you were a dog i would kill you to put you out of your misery. the iphone is the only reason anyone has you. tmobile will support devices they don't even sell, and you're pushing out an OS thats ancient compared to what smaller carriers have given their customers to the same device? you're a joke at&t, a JOKE.

I FEEEL INSULTED AS A 9000 BOLD USER !!! I HAVE VERSION .610 BEST RELEASE SO FAR AND AT&T INSULTS US WITH AN OFFICIAL 4.6 GTFO OF HERE !!!!!!

SUCK DEEEZ NAUTSZZZ

it is pointless. I've been patiently waiting for 5.0 and they come up with this. what a joke. this is one of the many reasons I hate AT&T. I sell phones at my part time job, and I'll sell AT&T phones, but I always love it when customers ask my opinion. I'll tell them that for the most part coverage is great in the area, but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. they are always slow to get updates to phones even though they have the capability built in to almost every phone, and they definately don't stand behind their product. I love talking customers out of AT&T products.

And this is why I'm getting the new iphone when it comes out. *sigh*

What the hell. OS 5.0 has been offically released by some carriers for the bold and they are JUST NOW putting out another 4.6 update for it...

It is safe to bet that AT&T will never upgrade the 8900 to 5.0 or give it VVM now.

4.6? Lmfao how sad!
