- I know that the T-mobile version of OS6 for the 9700 went out to beta testers via the Blackberry Beta Program nearly a month ago. Is anyone in that beta group able to share how things stand? Any ETA on the official 9700 OS6 Tmo release?
What version of OS6 went to the beta group?02-22-11 11:24 AMLike 0 -

They've been really good lately upgrading current devices. Your statement of "never" couldn't be further from the truth IMO. Many carriers have already release official OS6 versions for OS6.

Yes, it would be smart business to withhold if the OS update were all the 9780 had over the 9700, but it isn't even the most important, let alone only. Too, they wouldn't be bothering with the beta testing if they weren't planning on it.02-22-11 05:44 PMLike 0

The local psychiatric hospital has just announced they are missing a patient who has gotten away with one of their computers. Officials say he most likely will be lurking in forums posing as someone that thinks they know what they're talking about.
End.

Back on topic:
We already know there was a beta of OS6 for the tmo 9700 in the USA. The question is if anyone in the beta can comment on what issues have been reported or if there is an end date to the beta.
Thanks.02-23-11 03:04 PMLike 0 - So just download and install the latest "beta" version. I'm running 6.0.0.461 (which actually is a later version than the "official" released version for other carriers. It runs just fine. In fact, better than fine - it is supper fast. No issues at all. Does reduce the memory - but you can still have a dozen apps or so and no slow down at all. As I said it just works. Don't know why Tmobile doesn't release as official - as others have.02-27-11 09:53 AMLike 0

AFAIK the tests continue, I dropped out of the beta program because I dislike OS6 and wasn't willing to continue running it on my phone.
Others here have suggested you just run the latest leak and that's very good advice if you want OS6.02-27-11 02:09 PMLike 0 -
You're right about your response to josh05 though, he was just mistaken in his response. One of those... "I didn't think it through" situations. I know that one well! LOL!02-27-11 05:04 PMLike 0 -

I believe that Bell was the first of the 3 major Canadian carriers to release theirs (.448).

- I have to admit that T-Mobile will never release OS 6 for Bold 9700 since they already released Bold 9780 with OS 6. Is like putting a OS for a smaller model when one is out. Other carriers released OS 6 for Bold 9700 because they don't have the 9780. Makes common sense.03-23-11 01:05 PMLike 0
