i downloaded the official v 5.0.0.484 that Sprint released...working like a charm. RIM's releases arent carrier specific...just make sure the release is for the Blackberry you have and voila!

Posted by Miss_Cee Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

I'm not familiar with Wind Hellas. Is it a network? Can I download this on an ATT 8900?

 
 
Posted by 364ll Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Posted by piper975 Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Still waiting for the 8350i 5.0 OS to drop ... where is it ??? come out, come out from where ever you are !!!

 
 
Posted by CrackCurve56 Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

The reason it may have been pulled is that Bluetooth is not working properly with the media player on .509. They need to correct this. I put it on my 9000 and not just me, but several others who play music with media player and bluetooth were having a problem. So sit tight. They are the closest to putting out a 5.0 for the Bold 9000 with this version than ever. :)

Posted by turbofour Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Posted by craighunter1990 Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

has anyone got a link to information about this? im on o2 will this software make any diff?

 
 
Posted by Kostantinos Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

is rogers ever going to get an offical 5.0 os for the bold 9000?

 
 
Posted by Jerky223 Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Rogers sucks for all cell phone software upgrades.

 
 
Posted by Cap_172R Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

I too have been waiting to see if rogers would release an official OS 5.0... hopefully it would come soon! but then again.. who knows...

 
 
Posted by Matt J Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Updates on Rogers take forever. I agree that (looking back) I would chose another carrier besides Rogers. Bell is looking good now, but I wish we had more choice.

 
 
Posted by amirnabilkamelsaad Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Can somebody please confirm this version for the Bold 9000 has Arabic typing support?
Thanks in advance

P.S.: it should be in the language selection before installation.

This would be good news if I new what
WIND Hellas was? A cell phone provider. Will it work with my AT&T Curve 8900?

 
 
Posted by jackbox Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

I need some East Asian lovin' from RIM.

 
 
Posted by Miss_Cee Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010 711 days ago

Insman1, I had the same question, never heard of the company. You can definitely download it for ATT. I did about an hour ago. Everything's smooth. Works great :)

 
 
Posted by kstagg Thursday, Mar 04, 2010 710 days ago

I downloaded this file, and it installs the: "Blackberry Device Software v.5.0.0 for the Blackberry 8520 smartphone" per the .msi file as well as per CCleaner.

But the $25,000 dollar question is - where does it install it to?

I don't know what to do next? In the Desktop Manager it still says 4.6.1 is the latest/greatest OS and that the install of the .msi did nothing to show that 5.0 was now available to put on the phone. How do I get this on the actual phone?

Your help in this matter is GREATLY APPRECIATED.

So close! Arggggggggh!

 
 
Posted by moresa Thursday, Mar 04, 2010 709 days ago

After you run the set up wizard. Open BB Desktop Manager and plug in the BB. Then go to your C-drive > Program Files > Common Files > Research In Motion > App Loader and delete the xml.vendor file. After that at the top of the list there should a app loader file. Double click that and it should load up. Select the features/applications you want to load on it and go. Hope this helps.
