BlackBerry Bold 9930 7.0.0.308 Leaked – Hopefully Fixes Back Button Bug
I have been waiting for a solid leak for the CDMA BlackBerry Bold 9930. The OS Verizon ships with the 9930 is 7.0.0.254 which has a really annoying bug. For some reason every once in awhile my back button refuses to work and suddenly decides to fire up the task switcher instead. I have confirmed…
