Official OS 5.0.0.714 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700 now available from T-Mobile

Posted by Adam Zeis on 23 Jun 2010 10:56 am

T-Mobile has officially released OS 5.0.0.714 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700. The software should be popping up via the wireless update on most devices (if you have an official OS installed already). If you don't have the option, you can grab the OS from T-Mobile for a desktop install (we created a mirror so you don't need to go through T-Mobile to get to the download). No word on whats new and...

Another price drop for the BlackBerry Bold 9700 on Rogers?!?

Posted by Bla1ze on 22 Jun 2010 1:03 pm

It wasn't all that long ago that we let you all know about the recent price drop to $99.99 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700 on Rogers. Seems as though we may be seeing another as well. A few folks have sent us emails and pics, letting us know that some Rogers locations are now showing the device at $0 with a new 3 year contract (Although, it could be individual dealers sale price). I always enjoy...

Official OS: 5.0.0.602 For The BlackBerry Bold 9700 released by AT&T

Posted by Bla1ze on 18 Jun 2010 1:45 am

Seems as though the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is getting OS love from lots of carriers these days. While not on par with that of folks on Rogers in Canada, AT&T has just released their latest approved OS. 5.0.0.602 is now officially available via their BlackBerry downloads page. If you're still running the stock OS on your 9700 for AT&T you'll want to look into this one. Thanks cc999!...

Official OS: 5.0.0.743 For The BlackBerry Bold 9700 released by Rogers

Posted by Bla1ze on 17 Jun 2010 2:46 pm

Not feeling loading leaked OS' on your 9700? That's cool. We now have an official version of OS 5.0.0.743 for you all to upgrade to if you have a BlackBerry Bold 9700. Get to it, if you've been holding out. This OS seems to be pretty solid based on my usage from the leaked version. Download The Official OS 5.0.0.743 From The Rogers BlackBerry Download Page>>

Thoughts on the BlackBerry Bold 9650 - One week later

Posted by Adam Zeis on 15 Jun 2010 2:09 pm

To say I was excited to receive my BlackBerry Bold 9650 would be an understatement. A long-time Verizon customer, I had been a CDMA user since I got my first BlackBerry. Where I live Verizon service is by far the best, so I was more than anxious for the latest device to get in my hands. After using my Tour for quite a while, I jumped over to the Bold 9700 (using T-Mobile) and fell in love. The...

Leaked: OS 5.0.0.743 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700

Posted by Bla1ze on 10 Jun 2010 7:56 pm

*UPDATE* - This one has just gone official from Optus. Official download can be found here* BlackBerry Bold 9700 owners have been stuck on OS 5.0.0.680 for a while now. So, why not go ahead and give OS 5.0.0.743 a spin around the block. I've not had the time to test this out in any fashion so like always, be sure to back up your data first. Let us know in the comments how it works out for...

T-Mobile Bold 9700 Wireless Update to 5.0.0.714?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 27 May 2010 8:57 am

We've had a few emails on this so far, so we figured it was time to post it up and see what its all about. It seems that some T-Mobile Bold 9700 users have been provided an OTA software update that ended with OS 5.0.0.714 installed on their devices. T-Mobile just issued an official OS update to 5.0.0.586 last week, so this newer version seems like a bit of odd timing. The users are mostly...

I meant to get this up yesterday, but the BlackBerry Messenger Stress Test shananigans kind of had me all distracted. But here it is... I'm rocking a white 9700 now, so my black 9700 is getting paid forward to a lucky CrackBerry member. No more waiting... here's the big announcement for who's going to be the new owner of my BlackBerry Bold 9700. AND THE WINNER IS...... Dita Big congrats...

Case-Mate Smart Skin Case for the BlackBerry Bold 9700

Posted by Adam Zeis on 26 May 2010 10:56 am

[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ]One of the most unique cases I've come across is the Case-Mate Smart Skin. I really dig this case as it offers great protection in a compact design. It has a very cool feel to it, and the keyboard cover is a great addition. The only hard part I found was getting used to typing on the "softer" keys, but after a while I barely noticed a difference. It...
