BlackBerry Storm OS 4.7.0.83 (+ Video)

If your BlackBerry Storm is still misbehaving then you might want to treat it to another dose of leaked firmware. This time around it’s version 4.7.0.83.

Preliminary changes seem to suggest that the handset responds faster, with both applications loading and closing faster and the on-screen keyboard doing a better job of keeping up with typing. Browser rendering is also reportedly faster, with one user suggesting that some sites loaded in a third of the time they used to.

Other suggest that the accelerometer is faster (though some users report it’s actually slower than before in the home screen) but that now the Storm can sometimes miss clicks in the corners of the display. Of course, as an unofficial leak you try firmware 4.7.0.83 at your own risk; installing it could affect your handset’s warranty or even break it altogether.
