Verizon to push out a new OS update for the Storm?

Exclusive April 28, 2009

We’re not too sure how much truth there is behind this one, but we just got a tip from a Verizon ninja who received an email memo regarding a much needed OS update for the BlackBerry Storm 9530. The memo mentions that OS 4.7.0.141 “is here” and that customers would be receiving alerts during the day telling them to upgrade. We haven’t been able to confirm this yet, but this ninja has proven himself to be a reliable source of VZW information in the past. Oddly, we have yet to come across a leaked copy of OS 4.7.0.141 but we are aware that RIM is already working on OS 4.7.0.201 and greater for the 9530. Perhaps this might be one of those rare instances where a carrier beats the leakers to the punch. We shall see.

    @ Vernon.
    If you’re so old and so wise then why do you play childish games on here you f’ing loser. You are an immature piece of shit and the only time your nasty crab filled pubic hair ever comes in contact with a girl is when your female doctor is checking your ass at the free clinic. So go jerk off to the sears catalog you sick fuck!

    Wow. That’s not even kind of a joke.

    Unless you think it’s funny to try and make yourself look cool, and then try to play it off like a joke when you get cornered.

    Actually.. that is kind of funny…..

    @ redxlifegaurd

    Okay, I’ll go do that. Probably while looking at photos of red cross lifegaurds ;-)

  • GuestSpot

    updates for Verizon are usually on Fridays anyways

  • Yadayada

    Wow,
    Alittle pissed? Hey most all of us that have the storm just want a release version that F***ing works. No quarks. Just a good OS. So yes pranks right now are going to piss people off.

  • Tom

    I installed a leaked copy of .141 today and it works awesome. Best build yet by FAR. Anyone who wants a copy can get it at Crackberry.com

  • shane

    it is odd that you have an offical OS when me and all the people i know that have storm’s haven’t gotten the update.

  • shane

    well no upgrade. this is another BS story from BS informants

  • GetOverIt

    I actually got a wireless update alert on my phone just a few seconds ago. I went to do the update but it said There is no update available, maybe cuz i’m using .132? It was there when i pressed and held the blackberry button and the secondary menu popped up with the horizontal icons and had a red asterisk on “wireless update”

  • rfh

    Mine did that too when I did the application switcher, but I think it was because I already had the update checker open in the background from when I had checked earlier this morning.

    I think the asterisk on the icon might just be a bug. I got *really* excited for a moment…

  • YadaYada

    This 4.7.0.141 is for the 9500.

  • Ted McNealy

    I am sick of the lies BGR! Why get mad at Vernon when BGR is the one with the bad joke? Some great douche bag reporting that is 100% wrong! I am done with this website and sticking with CrackBerry.com because they actually post accurate stories (probably why they didn’t post this story). Suck balls Boy Genius, you c*ck sucking mother f*cking c*nt!
