Hello everybody,

I am a long time blacberry user. I have BB Classic since he came to Europe. I had 9900 Bold with well tuned OS before the Classic. The system ran perfectly and in fact the Bold has been used more like instead of my laptop... There was only one, but huge weakness - the camera.

Now - the Blacberry Classic has much better camera, but the system does not satisfy me at all.

Sorry if my question is too stupid, but does exist some way, how to change operating system in BB Classic onto OS 7.1?
Does anyone have experience with something like this? Or what do you think - is this ever theoreticaly possible, or there are such HW, or other differences between BB Classic and BB 9900 Bold that such tuning will not work?

But is nice idea to have Blacberry phone with HW keyboard, good camera and OS 7.1 what do you think?

:-)

And can somebody explain why it is not possible?
Or better - what shall we do to make it possible if there will be no money limit :-) ?

To do so requires you to jailbreak/root the Classic, something that has not been done before. This is because of the BlackBerry 10 OS's hardware root of trust, the signatures along to boot up stages will not match if BBOS 7.1 is substituted for BB10.2.
You would have to pay BlackBerry directly for a special signed and authenticated version of BBOS7.1
