Ok ihave tested it for about a day now. It seems stable no major improvements although when I was loading it it sai I was downgrading the core but updating the applications ?? Go figure. Other than that seems fine no real problems.

I agree...no big difference in the new build. I had the same notice, downgrading core but upgrading apps??? Anyway, the only thing that I have noticed is that - don't think my battery life is as good as with .213, and I had a little trouble with Berryweather updating. Its fine now so it could have been Berryweather acting up.

Thanks for the heads up

Yes there were some issues, which were complicated by the fact BIS went down

I got a tip from Stacker bmay82 that several carriers had released the official 5.0.0.411 for the 8900 and a check on BBOS confirmed it, links added to the OP.

The official 5.0 release looks great and has worked well with all my apps so far. Let's see how it does on battery life.
