“RIM has promised to release upgrades for the system software on some of its smartphones, but the release of these has been somewhat slow. Many of those who are tired of waiting have the option to install an unofficial version of BlackBerry OS 5.This un-authorized OS upgrade is available for the BlackBerry Bold 9000 and Curve 8900.Installing this upgrade will bring these device even with the most recent models from RIM, including the BlackBerry Storm2 and BlackBerry Bold 9700. RIM has already released an official upgrade for the original BlackBerry Storm.The Unofficial UpgradeVersion 5.0.0.411 can be download from the following links:
BlackBerry Bold 9000
BlackBerry Curve 8900
