...the Tour's 5.0 OS is where exactly again? Sheesh. What is up with THAT?

SenorLoco

Why is it that after every 5.0 release for a device Tour owner have to jump in a complain. We all get it...its a bummer an official update for the Tour hasn't been released but I don't think we need to hear about it every time. Heck I have a Tour and I'm sick of hearing people complain :)

artie

I find the same thing in Photo forums. :(

Trader Z

And where is AT&T's offical 5.0 OS for the bold 9000?

I guess the $300 we spent a year ago isnt worth much these days.

Screw AT&T.

_BIG_

talk about my mind playing tricks on me... i forgot for a second that sprint had the 8530 and almost had to change my pants thinking this said 5.0 for the 8350 LOL

:: sigh ::

1edyson

it seems like everyone but us 8900 users are getting official releases of 5.0 OS's, when on when will our day come! lol

JoeShmoe

Everyone but 8900, AND the 9630 (tour)...

Crackberry_Canadian

Everyone but 8900, AND the 9630 (tour)... AND the 8330.

HeLLkAt31

sometimes you just have to take matters into ur own hands well i started with the 8900 with Tmo US back in february and when all these 5.0 this 5.0 that were comin out i felt like, WTF! wat about me? well for Xmas i bought me the Bold 9700 and i gave my 8900 a leaked 5.0 for being so good to me for all of 2009 and let me tell you, it works fantastic its like a low grade 9700 without the 3G =]

Suavechef

I thought that the 8530 was released with this software version? I could be mistaken though.

kevinwska

Yes the Sprint version was released with this version, or at least that is what mine came with. I think Verizon was one build under.

mystics7

I got mine a week ago and just check this is the version it came with

nydog

I'm sayin', can we get an Official 5.0 release for the Tour?!

squire

This phone just came out and already has an update for OS 5.0! The Sprint 9630 has been out since July and we're still waiting! WTF?

Bla1ze

It's not really an update, it's what the device came with but fact is others can now grab it such as VZW users who do not have this version available to them.

emor8t

Where is OS 5.0 for the Tour!

Suavechef

People the 8530 from Sprint was released with OS 5.0 and the exact version is 5.0.0.395. This isn't any update to the Sprint 8530. Just an official release of the OS for reload purposes if needed.

Bla1ze

And Verizon owners who don't have this version.. ;)

Suavechef

Ah yes Bla1ze. That is very true.

Benjyc

Any love for the 8520, When is 5.0 coming out for it

Hey_Daniel

What about for Bold 9000 and Curve 8900, We have been waiting for decades... Up roar

CaFe88

how is dis new news i saw this in the forums last wk!!!

snowwy66

i like how prejudiced yall are. what about us 8330 users. the oldest and longest selling model that refuses to die.

BrianFTC

I wonder why each carrier provides different updates even if they are the same devices? Every time I read OS updates, it is pretty much in the device level, not carrier specific. Yes, I have Tour and want to complain as many but I will shut up at the moment lol

russtcb

Downloaded and installed this. Things are going smooth since install.

lewisc1979

My 8330m on Sprint would like 5.0, too. It's lonely.

smccloud

I definately wish this was for the 8330 :(

Guess I will just have to reload the leaked 5.0 OS for it.

ryan2708

I just to make sure. Will this update work on my curve 2 with verizon?

capt skinboat

Would I like to have an official 5.0 release for the Tour 9630? The answer is hell yes!!! Is it the end of the world that I don't have one yet? Not even the slightest. I have been running .230 for at least 2 or 3 months now with no problems so honestly while I would indeed like an official release ill get by with the leaked version just fine til then.

daneg

Will this work if my 8530 is on Verizon?

Also does anyone know what this fixes? I am looking for a threaded text messaging fix. I'm tired of only being able to "preview" the incoming text, then clicking it to open and its blank. I have to delete it and get the person to resend it.

kraziebeast

the only reason i check this site so religiously. hopefully they'll hold up that offer that it will be out before this year is up.. pfft.

gallagherm1993

sixxpak56

I think that this is just a slap in the face to all other carrier. Just because we aren't getting this kind of love. With my blackberry 8900 I want a actual release 5.0 not none of this beta crap they keep coming out with and I have to mess with it just so that it will work. Protest I tell you all protest.

kraziebeast

which is the only reason i check this site so religiously. hopefully they'll hold up that offer that it will be out before this year is up.. pfft. its already DEC. 30th.

studiorat

rim said they will be rolling out the OS 5.0 they never said releasing them by the end of the year, still I would love to see it

timtones

ive got the 5.0 leak on my 8330. what would happen if i threw this update over the top of it?

Corymac2

Well, I'd love to see that timtones.

sixxpak56
