Default Is there a version of Bold 9000 that should not be updated to OS 5?

I bought a Bold 9000 for my sister and updated it to 5.0 and two days later when I pulled the battery to switch SIM card the phone refused to boot. Only red led and nothing else. I took it to service and they said that some versions of Bold 9000 should not be updated to OS 5. Ive never heard of that, is it true? Cuz I payed 15eur for them to bring it back to life and its running 4.6 but Id like to update it back to OS 5. Should I do it?

Sorta seems like bs.

I bought a bold 9000 last night and followed some instructions that had me wipe the phone completely and use the loader to install OS 5

I have about 43meg available for applications and the phone is running awesome.

Try wiping it completely before you install OS 5. Owning 3 bold 9000's over the years, I've never heard of that and can't see it true.
