BlackBerry Curve 8520 (Gemini) Running OS5

Well, my BlackBerry was shipped with 4.6.1 OS in it and I knew that it was kinda a step behind the new one (OS 5). So I immediately search the famous http://blackberry.bosen.net for the OS 5 installer. I downloaded the EastAsia - Telkomsel files and installed it in my PC. Ah don't forget to erase the 'vendor.xml' file if you want to install it.

After that you'll just simply followed the steps in the screen and waiting for the Loader finished the job. The upgrading process is much alike the same with the one in my previous article so I don't want to waste my time typing the same part. Just click and read it for yourself if you're not sure what you are doing here.

Okay, OS5 are having few changes. Here are some of them (please note that I'm using the 5.0.592. The other OS5 might have different changes too):

• The Media files is now not an 'app' but a folder. It contained the Video, Music Player, Ringtones, Voice Recorder, Camera and Video Camera apps in it.
• The SMS is now using BBM style.
• There are changes in the setting menu. Now it's using a bubble-dropdown style.
• No keyboard lock. If you hold the 'a' button, it will bring you to standby mode and to un-standby, you should press the above media button (it's in the middle / the play button). The old lock style could be enabled by using password lock.
• Enhanced Browser

Actually there are more to it but I thought that the ones I listed above is what the users will experience by himself. The other upgraded parts for example the security, memory management, which most likely will never be noticed by me if I haven't read about it. :)
