Is there a way to restore my blackberry software version?

[Simplex123]

Whoa! Here we go. For the past little while we've been hearing plenty of code names floating around for the next generation of BlackBerry devices. The BlackBerry Colt of course, was one of the first ones, but there have been a few others. Milan, Lisban and more specifically, a device codenamed 'London' was suggested as being tested internally and that -- is what is purported to be shown above. When it comes to specs, it is said to be running a a TI OMAP dual-core CPU clocked to 1.5GHz, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage with an 8MP rear camera and a 2MP front facing camera.

Looking at the device, it shows clear signs of the Porsche P'9981, but has a more toned down look to it. The information suggests it is boxier then the image would have you believe as it can stand straight up on one of its sides. While fun to look at it, it's noted as being a dummy model which could explain the screen looking much less than bright and vivid, but clearly the intention here is to show it running on QNX / BBX.

So, is this a next generation BlackBerry that will reach consumers' hands? Possibly another Porsche design or -- the remains of one? We're not sure. Either way, it's not as offensive to me as the P'9981 -- but what do you all think?

For those of you having battery issues, try downloading the new .503 software. My 9900`s battery has significantly improved since I got it brand new with the new update. The battery still doesn`t last for 2 days but it`s easily lasting a day with heavy usage.

Also, is anyone else having issues with dust under the screen? I just noticed a small speck under my screen and my phone is still quite new...

I got a problem with my sms texts... Once a while, I text to a friend for at least 30 mins, then some texts came already but it's already read and did not notify me until I have to double check if i receive a text or not... Anybody have that problem?

im in the same situation. but after reading that blog post about crackberry kevins 9900, im a little hesitant to get one. i need one bad though. the speakers on my berry are both popped some how..

[Simplex123]

The 9900 has been fine for me. They are addressing a fix right now with a software update. Plus if there's any problems you can just get a new one under your warranty.
I wouldn't get the 9790 myself as the screen resolution and screen itself is smaller. I really don't mind the screen size and the battery life is getting better with the newest OS .540

Here's a comparison from CrackBerry

BlackBerry Bold 9900
This is Reseach In Motion's flagship BlackBerry Smartphone. It's the thinnest Bold the company has ever made, has a distinctive stainless steel band surrounding it, and has what many call the best QWERTY keyboard in the mobile world. The Bold 9900 has all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a top of the line BlackBerry Smartphone: a fast processor, a high resolution touchscreen, BlackBerry OS7, and a decent 1230 mAH battery. Frankly, there just isn't room in this short article to learn all about the Bold 9900. Check out our CrackBerry Superpage for our complete coverage.

Who is it for: Users who want the best possible BlackBerry experience


BlackBerry Bold 9790
The BlackBerry Bold name is not one tossed about lightly, so you know that the BlackBerry Bold 9790 is an excellent Smartphone. In terms of specifications, though, the Bold 9790 is a step down from the BlackBerry Bold 9900. It's not as large as its 9900 cousin, the screen resolution is less (but still a touchscreen), and the processor is not quite as fast. Still, the BlackBerry Bold 9790 is an impressive addition to the BlackBerry lineup.

As to why RIM created a similar but less-powerful Bold, there are several reasons. RIM tries hard to create a BlackBerry Smartphone for everyone. The 9790 itself is physically smaller than the 9900; not everyone likes a giant Smartphone. More importantly, the Bold 9790 is a Bold-on-a-budget. The slightly lowered specifications means this Bold should sell for substantially less than the 9900. Everybody likes a good deal.

Who is it for: Users who want a top-quality, front facing keyboard BlackBerry without breaking the bank. The Bold 9790 is actually being marketed toward women (smaller hands, smaller phone) by RIM as well.

Bonus Feature: The Bold 9790 has a 5 MP auto-focus camera. This is not the same as the much-bemoaned EDOF camera in the Bold 9900. Score!

Marketed towards women eh

[skyxx]

^ Some women will then say, "Since this is a phone markerted towards women, why do we get a less equal phone than the 9900 which is marketed towards men."

RIM, you sexist.
