Default Anyone upgraded OS on Bold using Orange carrier in the Uk??

Please Login to Remove!

Hi,
I have had 2 blackberries before my Bold - a 8700f and pearl but never upgraded the os before.
I have the Bold on Orange in uk on OS v4.6.0.92 but I know the current one on blackberry orange site is v.4.6.0.292.
Is it worth me upgrading firmware??
Has anyone else used this version??
Are there problems or bugs??
Thanks for any info

YES You should upgrade.
Had various issues with original firmware.
Wasn't able to use windows messenger , blackberry maps.
Its all working now .
Im also able to stream youtube videos using 3g .
Web browser much quicker.
Battery lasts much longer (up to 3 days ) with quite bit of usage , and on 3g
Cant remember all the problems that i had , but i highly recommend you to upgrade.

Hi thanks for the reply.
My dilemma is that all of that currently works fine with the version I'm on.
The only thing maybe the battery life.
What OS are you using is it the current newest one fom orange .292??
So I don't want to upgrade and give myself problems.

The latesest is .162 from Orange. It's the Application version you should be looking at.

And yes to your question. I'm using .216 from a different carrier in another country so as long as it's for the Bold you're good.

That's the thread how to upgrade your bold (follow step by step guide - dont forget to remove vendor.xml ). Agree with Abbsta . As long it is for bold your ok .
