Official OS 7.1.0.580 for the BlackBerry Bold 9930 and Torch 9850 from Sprint
Sweet!
Link provided above does not work -- use https://t.co/zutS9YPv instead... (Thanks, @cameronhirbodi!)
Update: Never mind! I didn't scroll down far enough...
About time!!! Will be loaded on my device in about an hour.
damn you verizon!
+ infinity
I'm sure Verizon will be coming out with an update soon. They are just stubborn and want it a certain way...
Forget Verizon. Just load it up. If you ever need support or have a hardware issue, just reload the Verizon OS onto the device.
I thought Sprint discontinued the Torch 9850? But new update works nice on my 9930.

Exactly one day AFTER I scour the site for a download for the 9850.
Well, better late than never, I guess.
Been waiting on the download. I hate OTA updates. Thanks for posting it's available now :-)
So as usual delete the vendor portal if using on verizon 9930?
Yes
YAY FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!
Is it just me? or is this update not as good as Sprint's previous update. And how many more updates do you think Sprint will have for the Bold 9930 before and after the release of BB OS10? PS Not sure from other Sprint BB Bold 9930 owners, but I had to remove quite a few apps to cover the memory the latest update needed.
