All you have to do is download this OS, install it, open Desktop Manager and you should be good to go from there. BE SURE TO DO A BACKUP OF YOUR DEVICE BEFORE INSTALLING THIS. Good luck!

The folks from Electric Pocket just let me know that everyone’s favorite BlackBerry app Flipside has been updated for the BlackBerry Storm. Not only that but they also updated PhoneFace  for the Storm. If your not familiar with Flipside its a great MP3 program for your BlackBerry which users coverart to display your music (similar to iTunes). PhoneFace is a cool application that allows you to use pictures for your contacts and speedials instead of searching by just name and numbers. Both very neat programs and now both for the Storm.

OS 4.7.0.85 leaked for Vodafone’s BlackBerry Storm 9500

A new unofficial OS has leaked for the Vodafone BlackBerry Storm 9500. The new OS is version 4.7.0.85 which we recently saw released for the Storm 9530. So far we aren’t to sure of what this new OS version offers, however with the CDMA 9530 version it didn’t seem to run that well. I don’t recommend upgrading to this OS if you haven’t used a beta OS before (They can cause your device to become useless). There obviously is a reason RIM hasn’t publically offered this version just yet. But if your feeling lucky you can give it a shot the download link is here.
