Latest Official 9930 OS 7.0.0.374 Verizon Wireless
- I am an AT&T Bold user for 2 years now. I really want the Bold 9900, but am confused..
I may switch to Verizon when my contract ends in a month... I am seeing that the new Bold 9900 is 4G in some places, like Sprint.... but is is 3G with Verizon and AT&T?
Can someone set me straight? Is this phone offered in 4G and by which carriers?
Any anyone out there that has done a side by side comparison of this phone on 2 carriers - is there really a difference? Please share... Dave10-23-11 04:52 PMLike 0 -

The 9930 from Verizon & Sprint is the slower CDMA Rev. A (3G only).10-23-11 05:51 PMLike 0 - On I back up the database manually before I let the DM do the update along with the one made automatically and usually have backups of the COD's at least any non AppWorld ones but the point is I don't want to mess with having to spend the time restoring it.10-23-11 07:08 PMLike 0

T-Mobile (and AT&T) refers to HSPA+* as 4G but it is more marketing than anything and AT&T will likely refer to theirs as 4G if it really matters to you.

Be aware that even an official upgrade can, and has in some cases, brick a phone.
In case something happens and he needs to have Verizon look at it; he might not realize downgrading is an option. I could be wrong.10-23-11 10:00 PMLike 0 - Until who can? Since it was available nearly 72 hours ago via DM on my computer, would that make it official?

Should you get tired of waiting, keep in mind you can always download and install this release, and easily revert should the need to do so arise.10-23-11 10:09 PMLike 0

I went to a Nascar race saturday, where I always have UberSocial set on 10 minute refresh rate, heavy tweeting, Facebook, text and heavy browser use. It went from 7am to 9pm before it even went "in the orange", I was floored. During a normal day with FB set at 1hr refresh, Uber at 30min, it never made it to 3pm. I have renewed my crush on my 9930.

- Considering that my Verizon 9930 doesn't have the same poor performance that yours does, I will believe that the issue isn't Verizon's. Nevertheless, Verizon doesn't code the OS, RIM does. So if anyone needs to get their stuff together, it's RIM.10-24-11 09:25 AMLike 0

I also came from .362 , but I am getting a lot better battery life with this build.
Have you done several battery pulls yet?
