Pandora Radio now available on BlackBerry Storm!

By James on Apr 15, 2009 in BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Downloads, Storm 9500 Series.

pandora-2

It seems like not too long ago that Pandora released their BlackBerry application for the BlackBerry Bold, Curve, Pearl and 8800 series smartphones. Only issue was they didn’t release one for the Storm! Well it appears that Pandora has been update to new version 1.0.2 and with that brings support for the BlackBerry Storm. It doesn’t appear to be on their site as of yet but its confirmed to be working on Verizon Storms. At this time Pandora ONLY works in the United States and leaves Canada and the rest of the World in the dark…

But if your in the United States upgrade or get Pandora for the Storm at pandora.com/blackberry.

Must Have App for BlackBerry Storm: StormLock

By James on Apr 15, 2009 in BlackBerry, Downloads, Storm 9500 Series.

stormlock-screenshot_1

Being a BlackBerry Storm owner, one of the biggest challenges is the touchscreen. Unfortunately its very easy to press speaker, mute or even flash during a call due to the touchscreen being heat sensitive. Previously I’ve tested applications that lock the keyboard while your on a call, however make it difficult if you need to unlock during a call. An application called StormLock seems to be your best bet. StormLock allows you to unlock your locked Storm with a simple press of the back key. Not only that but StormLock will also allow you to customize the time before the lock activates or even choose numbers that it won’t lock on such as voicemail or apartment door buzzer. StormLock features a very clean, simple and easy to use design which makes it almost fool proof. Another handy feature about this application is the fact that you can now set StormLock to one of your side convenince keys, making it even easier to use on the go. It’s available for the low price of only $2.95 and is worth every penny in my opinon.

By James on Apr 08, 2009 in Bell, BlackBerry, BlackBerry OS, Canada, Downloads, Storm 9500 Series.

bell-bbstorm

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…

BlackBerry Storm 2 with Wi-Fi coming to Verizon this September?

By James on Apr 07, 2009 in BlackBerry, Featured News, Rumors, Storm 9500 Series.

blackberry-storm-sidebyside

Honestly I can not see them upgrading the Storm just yet when they haven’t even perfected the current one. A new rumor is floating around (via Slashgear) that RIM and Verizon will be launching the BlackBerry Storm 2 later this year with Wi-Fi capabilities. It’s no lie that both RIM and its parterned carriers have been tormented because of the lack of Wi-FI but I just can not see them putting a CDMA + GSM + Wi-Fi into the same unit. It just sounds fishy. Anyway take this rumor with a grain of salt but it might be nice if it were true.

Flight Path – Free BlackBerry Storm Game to Kill Time…

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

flight-pathscreenshot_1

A new game for the BlackBerry Storm has hit our store and its free! It’s a very simple game but it might keep you entertained for at least a few minutes. Flight Path takes advantage of the Storm’s accelerometer meaning when you move your Storm the plane moves. Anyways if your looking for a little game to kill some time this could be it! Download it for free from The BlackBerry Sync Store.

Are you ready to put yourself in the pilot’s seat? The goal of the game is to fly your plane through the center of the rings coming at you. You get points for every ring you fly through, and the closer you get to the center of the ring, the more points you get. When you fly through a ring, you will be evaluated on a scale of Perfect, Good and Sloppy. Get a lot of Perfects or Goods in a row, and you will build up your score multiplier which will give you even more points! It’s not that easy though, because the game ends once you miss three rings. There’s also another catch. The rings keep getting smaller the longer you fly! To fly, hold the BlackBerry like a steering wheel and rotate left and right. The more you rotate, the faster your plane will turn. How high of a score can you get?

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.

Download OS 4.7.0.113 for the Storm 9530 >

Anyone else here using this OS?
