BlackBerrry 6 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700

If you've been patiently waiting for the next BlackBerry Bold 9700 leak, today is the day. OS 6.0.0.358 is now available for download in it's unofficial form. Many users are already running the previously leaked BlackBerry 6 for their Bold 9700 so this, is hopefully a better release than that one. Be sure to back up your data folks and let us know whats good in the forums or in the comments.

*OS Disclaimer - Please Read: Keep in mind this is NOT an official release and as such is not supported by RIM or your Carrier. If you choose to install, do so at your own risk and only if you're comfortable in the process of upgrading and downgrading your device software. It is quite normal during operating system development for certain features to be crippled or disabled while others are tested, and these beta builds often reflect that. They are not always better. Depending on your BlackBerry comfort level, it may be best for you to wait for community feedback on a build before deciding to download and install for yourself or simply wait for the next official release. If you require support, you will find it in our CrackBerry forums via our extremely knowledgeable community base - do not contact your carrier or RIM for Beta OS technical support (their first course of action will be to advise you to downgrade to a supported OS). *

I can't wait to install it. Tomorrow can't come soon enough :)

This one fixes some bugs like the memory leak and the podcasting app is merged with one in the media list. I like this version and am glad I made the upgrade

Posted by andy957 Thursday, Dec 02, 2010 447 days ago

I've found the following:
1. Much slower than 5.x
2. Much less memory available upon boot up
3. Battery life significantly worse than 5.x
4. Clicking on links in some apps (e.g. UberTwitter) doesn't do anything.
5. SearchIt broken.

I understand this is a leaked OS and as such I can't complain because it's really beautiful. What a HUGE improvement! Can't wait for the official version.

Congrats SIMONSTARK....;-)

Posted by a93hunt Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

I'm not trying to flame you for your comment but just out of curiosity, what is the amusement of being first to post? I see this all the time and I just don't get it.

Posted by a93hunt Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Currently downloading this. I was just about to download the v3 hybrid when my 9700 vibrated and I saw the CB twitter alert in regards to this version. Hopefully it will run smoother! & boy is this mirror slow!

Posted by simonstark Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Please post here, if the most obvious bugs from previous version have been killed. Like browser memory problem (try engadget.com, thenextweb.com), Social Feeds article preview load time, etc.

Do we have to go innto themse and delete the file like before?

Posted by owhitted Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

what file was that that needed to deleted? i kept having issues loading the previous os.

Posted by nolhayes Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

2 theme cods. One is blackberrytmotheme and the other is blackberryemuthotheme.

I'm not exact with the names but I'm close. Using BBSAK (blackberry swiss army knife) can get this task completed.

Posted by emirozmen Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

i am running it !!!

Posted by owhitted Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Does this version fix the 'No Theme Upon Initial Install' from the .344 version?

Posted by diruocco Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

i hope that there is social feeds in this one and that it fixes bugs like the curser being lost and other things.
and also memory leaks

Posted by qiilans87 Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

u musti tick it on loader and bb maps.. and that social feed and bb maps will appear on ur bb after installation

Posted by siopow Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Posted by nolhayes Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Wish I still had a 9700 to test this leak. 6.0 on the Torch is simply amazing though.

Posted by siopow Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

25kb/s wtf!

Posted by barrettrs Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

I'm getting my copy right now but I guess so are about 1 million other Bold 2 users. Anyways I really hope this Build is far more stable that the previous especially when it comes to battery life, memory leaks and of course service book issues.

im not sure if any of you have had this bug but whenever i would search for certain contacts using universal search i would press the call button when they were found then my phone would either call someone else or go to the call log. immediately after the phone would reset with a 602 error. i looked around some places and saw that the ribbon proccess died when this happens but RIM say the cause of this error was unknown. all in all i just hope this is fixed.

Posted by DJLILM Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Does this fix the bugs from the last version?

Posted by green_ember Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Glad to see the version number differences between leaks getting smaller. Maybe a sign we're getting closer to official releases?

Posted by emirozmen Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

running smoothly on my 9700 at start it was slow but a battery pull resolves it. so far so good!

Posted by maccauk Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Posted by jsn204 Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Posted by Nesquik Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

i think it was a joke... he was playing on the fact that every time an OS 6 leak wasn't for 9700... all the 9700 users complained haha. clever.

Posted by Nesquik Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

This must be serious.

Posted by robertdusa Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

They're using all caps to compensate for the low signal at the bottom of an old well that they fell into. Like when people shout when their signal becomes sporadic.

Duh!

;)

Posted by leftajarandy Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

The RSS feeds now show instantly in preview mode! Also seems much faster but that might be a placebo!

Posted by gymwarner Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Will download in the morning, exciting times though!!

Posted by danwilk Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

I downloaded the new leaked version and installed but DM is not finding it when I click to update device. I currently have the .344 version on my at&t 9700.

Posted by Suprah Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

y use dm?

use loader.exe

Posted by leftajarandy Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

I had this problem, make sure you run the "apploader" and NOT use blackberry manager.

Posted by sphinks Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

solution, deletion of vendor.xml (yes i forgot), and i had to delete the net_rim_theme_tmobile_BlackBerry6_480x360_b.

now it's working great! i've got 4 more MB now then before, so far so good. will report any issues as i go.

Posted by jMolly Saturday, Nov 20, 2010 459 days ago

Yes. Tmo still has the white screen issue.

You need to delete the above mentioned cod to fix the issue.
