Blackberry Storm OS 4.7.0.83 leaked!!!

22. December, 2008 News No comments


The guys over at Crackberry.com have done it again! Someone has leaked OS version 4.7.0.83 for the Blackberry Storm. I have had it installed for about two days now and wanted to post some things I have noticed.

Locking/Unlocking the device is much quicker, clicking the screen while the phone is locked no longer turns the screen on (saves battery), accelerometer switches a tad faster and doesn’t get stuck, camera takes photos a little faster (still takes a good 3-4 seconds after you press the button), keyboard seems to respond a little better, and overall UI navigation has been sped up slightly.

So far I have had no serious issues with the leaked OS. Today I did experience a sudden reset as I went to take a picture. This incident happened two times in a row, and after a third battery pull, everything is back to normal and I can take pictures fine. I am hoping this was just a fluke, if you follow me on Twitter, I will post up if I have any other issues with 4.7.0.83.

Checkout the video from crackberry.com of 4.7.0.83 in action
