I am having the same error after trying to updateApp World. Have tried deleting and reinstalling along with several battery pulls and this has not worked.

Suggestions would be appreciated.

Same boat with the rest of you. App world icon is gone (still). I have deleted and installed and battery pulled several times, all with no success. After battery pull, received "Uncaught Exception: java.lang.noclass DefFoundError" three times before errors cleared, and I was at the home screen. Still no App World icon even though it shows up in the Applications list.

You need to re-load the OS onto your phones.

I've been a staunch defender of BlackBerry but right now I'm feeling done. I updated my App World and like so many others I also get the ''Uncaught exception:java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

Really RIM? Your own native app and you can't get it right? Didn't you test it first?

I've lived with the crappy browser. I've lived with the limited apps. I've resisted the iPhone hype, but I can't see supporting a company that seems to lack the ability to get even simple things right. And now the release of their latest phones has been delayed to late 2012?!

I have another year and a half on my contract; either I buy it out and get an iPhone or I wait it out and hope that RIM gets their act together. I like my BB for the thngs it does so well, especially email. But that is all for naught if I have to spend my time troubleshooting.

End of rant

I've done extensive searching today and nothing has worked. I'd like to find a way to install the previous version.

So frustrated!!!!

I'm running Storm 2 with OS 5. I went here on my phone browser:

RROYY - APPLICATION ARCHIVE

and downloaded BlackBerry App World v3.0.1.29 (OS5) which is an earlier version.

So far so good.

I too found a couple of references to reinstalling the earlier version, both from the same site you refer to. Any hints on how to get it onto my BB once I download it (to my PC temp / download directory). I don't want to try something "brave" and screw up the BB as a consequence.

This is one of a series of BB failures, lock-ups and reboot problems I've had since the summer. I'm starting to think "iphone" for Christmas ... ...

If you're suggesting it did this work for you?

You need to make sure that the new version is deleted from your phone by going to Options, Applications, Add ons and delete App world. Reboot. Then navigate to the site I mentioned on your phone browser and click on the link there. It will take you to the install page. I installed the first one for OS 5.

Well, the fix was a bit of a pain, but I love the new look. Was running ver 5, and went ahead and did the update. BB apps is back, and like the new look and feel of ver 6 os. Thanks to Andyahs for the suggestion to reinstall the os.
BTW after the update on the BB app store, the icon looks very different from 5, so do not assume it is gone.
Thanks for the help andyahs

Spoke too soon. Mistook Crackberry superstore for BB app store. However, loaded that too with no problem. Ignore comment on icon.
