Hello, Rios!
Blackberry Torch 9860 is very good device to use. OS update is essential for smartphones because it brings about some revolutions. After all, you can always go to a customer care center to get an OS update. It's my option to go there to avoid the risk of software failure.
Have a nice day!

Hi Louise,
Before you upgrade the OS to the latest version, you have to make sure your device is compatible for the latest version. You can check this in Blackberry official website or call up Blackberry customer service. If you opt to upgrade your OS through blackberry customer care, they will charge you for the service. Another easier option is to go to settings option in your device and click on check for updates and proceed.
Hope this helps!

Updating your BlackBerry phone can be done easily with a PC suite. But first, you need to check your phone for the version of the BlackBerry OS running on the device. If your phone is running on BlackBerry OS 7.1 or earlier, download and install one of the following:
If your phone is running on BlackBerry 10 OS, download one of the following:
- BlackBerry Link for Windows – it supports Windows XP Service Pack 3, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.x and requires Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1.
- BlackBerry Link for Mac – it supports OS X 10.7 Lion, 10.8 Mountain Lion, 10.9 Mavericks, 10.10 Yosemite, and 10.11 El Capitan.
If your phone is running on BlackBerry OS 10.3 or higher, you can use one of the following:
You can also update your phone via the web browser. Go to BlackBerry Software Updates. For this to work, you need to use Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher. When the browser prompts you to install an add-on, install the add-on. Once the add-on is installed, you should see a “Check for Updates” button.
Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable then click that button on the browser.
