Options

10-01-2011 12:47 PM

 

Dear all,

 

I am opening this discussion in order to reference all the OS versions that have been released by mobile phone carriers for the BlackBerry Curve 9360 (GSM only). The 9360 is the successor of the BlackBerry Curve 8900.

Legacy features:

  • a 480x360 definition non-touchscreen screen
  • a QWERTY "Curve" keyboard
  • GSM
  • GPS & Wi-Fi
  • photo camera has flash

What's new:

  • trackpad instead of trackball
  • better battery, riverfall form factor
  • OS7 instead of OS4/OS5
  • photo camera has continuous-focus instead of auto-focus
  • photo camera of 5MB instead of 3.2
  • video camera : VGA definition (640x480) instead of 320x240
  • 3G in addition to GSM, GPRS and EDGE
  • 512MB RAM instead of 256MB

 

As a courtesy, I shall ask you to refrain from posting questions in this discussion.

 

RIM publishes OS versions to carriers, and after training & Q&A, carriers publish the OS. All those OS versions are available here:

http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

 

To this day, 95 downloads are available: 7 OS versions released by 94 carriers for the 9360. Those OS versions are not compatible with the 9350 (CDMA only) or with the 9370 (GSM+CDMA).

Hi I recently bought curve 9360 as individual handset from mobile showroom (not from carrier) with OS 7.0.0.319. I would like to update my OS to 7.0.0.400. In your post there are many links but I am not sure which link I shoud click to download the OS. Could you mention the exact link which I should click. I am using Aircel network from India.

Thank you, but the Asia language support does not have the version .400 for Redington, it has only .319

Please post the link once you get the .400 OS for Asia language. Thank you again.

saravanane,

I appreciate your interest in my original post. I would encourage you to read it entirely, especially the link to Krypto's step-by-step procedure. If you want to install a Redington OS on an Aircel India device, it is possible.
