Thomas asks…

What version of software does the Blackberry curve 8520 and 8900?

I heard that the latest software was v4.5? and what's the difference between EDGE and OS 4.6.1 or OS 5.0? And lastly, do you know which of these two will be faster when connected on wi-fi?
Thanks!

admin answers:

EDGE is the "2G" data network that AT&T uses for your blackberry to receive and trasmit data.

I'm not familiar with what the current OS is for either...
Although i bet the 8520 is using the newer 5.0 OS... The 8900? Not sure... This is just the previous version of the curve so i imagine they might still be on a 4.5 or 4.6 os and may upgrade to 5.0 sometime in the near future.

The new 5.0 OS is noticeably faster in all aspects in all of models of blackberries i have tested (storm 2, bold 9700, curve 8520 and 8530...)

btw, i would choose the BLACKBERRY BOLD 9700 if you can! It uses current 3G systems and the halfway step into 4G, the newer 3.5G bands!.... Here u go directly from Blackberry's Website.

* 3G (HSDPA) compatible
* UMTS: 2100/1900/850/800 MHz (Bands 1,2,5/6), 2100/1700/900 MHz (Bands 1,4,8)
* GSM: 1900/1800/900/850 MHz
* Quad-band support: GSM 850; GSM

Sandy asks…

Where can I downgrade from BB OS 5.0 to BB OS 4.6.1?

I updated my bb software ... then my stupid bb curve 8520 started acting all wonky to the point where my screen fried. Dont ask, I don't know how it happened.

I then got my phone exchanged and now it has the stupid BB OS 5.0 on it and I hate it. It puts all my sms together as if it's a chat on bbm and I HATE that. It's a long story but I want to go back to OS 4.6.1 and I can't figure out on the blackberry rim website where to go to to DOWNGRADE to os 4.6.1. My service provider is Rogers and theres a way that I can do it but I don't ahve time to call them to get instructions on how to do it because I'm working 2 part time jobs.

Can someone PLEASE post the link to the bb rim website where I go to install the os 4.6.1 onto my bb curve 8520. It HAS to be the 4.6.1 because the 6 and 4.7 WILL NOT work on my phone.

Thanks
