Awesome news for BlackBerry Storm owners! Bell has officially released one of the best Storm OS’ to date! If you connect your Storm to the BlackBerry Desktop Manager software and follow the instructions for an update you will now see the option to install OS 4.7.0.122. Reports from various users say that this verison OS could be one of the best ones seen yet. This sounds very promising for Storm owners (especially the ones running the Stock .76 OS). Anyway for now Bell has not placed this OS on their BlackBerry Download Site for everyone to download. Stay tuned for when that happens…

Any Bell Storm owners out there install this yet? If so let us know in the comments what you think…

OS Alert: BlackBerry Storm 9530 OS 4.7.0.113 leaked

By James on Mar 24, 2009 in BlackBerry, BlackBerry OS, Downloads, Storm 9500 Series.

Finally a new BlackBerry Storm OS has been leaked online. I’m a few hours late posting it because I was waiting to check and see if this was a RIM sourced one or someones hybrid copy. Orginally when we showed you the Storm’s new selection tool that was included in the 4.7.0.113 we had obtained. So we believe that this is the real deal and has been leaked from RIM. Now we don’t recommend you install this OS unless you have previous experience installing beta leaked operating systems. But if you feel like you really want to test out this OS (which we give 4/5 stars) then follow the link below. Please just be sure to do a full backup before installing it.

Anyone else here using this OS?

Better finger selection for Copy/Paste/Edit coming to future Storm OS!!

We just received a tip that an upcoming BlackBerry Storm OS will introduce better finger movements for copy/pasting and selecting text. In the picture above you see the little box which you can drag along to highlight text. It’s quite a good idea!! We can’t tell you just yet what OS this will appear in however expect it soon at the rate of all these beta leaks. Using the box to slide your finger on the screen it makes it a lot easier to select text and copy/paste things. This little box at first reminded me of the hover on the iPhone, however it does not show the words magnified. Regardless it’s a great addition to the BlackBerry Storm and will for sure come in handy!

Here’s a video so you under.. Forgive me trying to operate camera and Storm at the same time…
You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video

As always stay tuned for more details…

Just a few days after OS 4.7.0.109 was leaked for the Storm 9500 it has now become available for the 9530. This new OS is an actual RIM beta copy and not a Hybrid (mix of 9500 software for the 9530). As always with any new beta OS we warn you to do a backup before installing and only install this if you know what your doing.

If you do install it please let us know in the comments how its working out for you!
