OS 5.0.0.230 For The BlackBerry Tour

Posted on September 22, 2009 by admin

If you have a Blackberry Tour phone you may be related to know that a new operating system update has been released to the web. The OS5.5.5.230 version has started to appear on various websites. As has happened before with Blackberry operating systems this is an unofficial version that has been released as nothing has been announced by Blackberry themselves.

Because this is unsupported it is important that you backup your phone if you are thinking of installing this. The phone itself is a really good solid business platform with lots of options for messaging. Overall it’s a sleek design and  probably the best Blackberry screen but we have seen on one of their phones yet. There is a really good selection of applications and social networking apps available including instant messaging. If you’re lucky enough to live outside Ireland you also get visual voicemail which unfortunately is not available here. But, maybe someday will see it.

One other interesting review and read about the phone is that the calendar and schedule application is quite powerful and very clever. They also noted that this is quite an ugly part and probably not as user-friendly as others are available.
