It took them long enough but Verizon finally launched an official OS update for their BlackBerry Storm. After testing out several OS versions it seems that Verizon finally feels 4.7.0.148 will have to do. Anyone with a Verizon branded Storm can download this much needed OS update by connecting their BlackBerry into Desktop Manager and clicking the Application Loader or on BlackBerry.com/update. As of now the OS is not listed on Verizon’s BlackBerry software page but it should be soon, so keep an eye on it.

Did Storm OS 4.7.0.141 Fail Internal Testing? Most likely.

By James on May 11, 2009 in BlackBerry, BlackBerry OS, Storm 9500 Series, USA, Verizon.

Late last month it was rumored that Verizon was getting ready to launch OS 4.7.0.141 for the BlackBerry Storm. Latest word on the block is that the OS actually failed testing by the Big Red (aka Verizon). Apparently .141 was full of little bugs and too many glitches still occur. Last thing we heard is that RIM will not be releasing anymore 4.7 releases for carriers to test because their getting ready for OS 5.0 roll out. So looks like Verizon customers might be stuck loading on leaked OS’ until an official one comes. Stay tuned for more details…
