That’s right, BlackBerry Bold users there’s another OS available for you to download and install online. My bud Kevin over at CrackBerry has noted that this update feels very unstable and some applications don’t even work after install! Chalk this up to be an early, early pre-release version of OS 5.0… The same OS 5.0 that RIM will no doubt unveil at WES next month. If you still want to give it a shot, you can still download OS 5.0.0.90 for the BlackBerry Bold. Although, you might be wise to wait for an official release of OS 5.0. Just my two cents. As with all unofficial OS updates, please backup your device and take all necessary precautions before proceeding.

    do you experience when you receive a voice mail that the voice mail icon does not show up on the phone on 4.6.0.247? That’s my problem.
