Bold 9000 and Pearl 3G OS Updates

BlackBerry Pearl 3G and Bold 9000 users, time to catch up with a few OS releases I missed earlier this week. The first, well, it’s not actually an official release, but a leak. If you’ve got a BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100 or 9105 in-hand, you can download OS 5.0.0.884… if you choose to. Remember, this is not an official release, so download and installation is done at your own risk. Download link is below if you’d like to get started!

Second, and perhaps more importantly, comes an actual OFFICIAL release for Bold 9000 users. Two official releases, in fact. Both Rogers and AT&T have gone live with OS 5.0.0.822 for the device, and you can grab it via the download links below.

Download 5.0.0.822 for the BlackBerry Bold 9000 via Rogers >

Download 5.0.0.822 for the BlackBerry Bold 9000 via AT&T >

As with any update, be sure to backup your device and take all necessary precautions before you proceed. After installation, if you notice any marked changes or improvements, be sure to let us know about it in the comments!

Happy OS Updating!
