5002302

Storm users have been living with the last leak (5.0.0.191) and having to deal with not having a functional camera or video camera, only hoping and praying for another OS that will fix this issue. Well it appears the folks at BlackBerry OS has gotten their hands on 5.0.0.230 for the 9530. The good news is that this new .230 version fixes the camera and video camera issue. Last time BlackberryOS showed the .191 images for the Storm and Tour, it was not to far before they leaked the link to download them. Could this happen with this OS as well? Lets hope so!
