    Priv owners - I currently switch BB10 devices quite regularly and it's a simple case of signing in to BBM and all my contacts appear, then vice versa when I switch back. Can I do the same with the Priv or does the Android version of BBM not work like that?

    Same thing. Just sign in with your BBID and you're off to the races

    I've never been able to get this to work. My conversations disappear every time.

    Z10 -> Passport -> PRIV

    That should be implemented in next BBM update.

    Can someone please tell me where to sign out of BBM on the Priv?

    I went into Accounts and deleted the BBM account, but it's still logged into the wrong ID.

    I'm looking and looking, but not finding it yet.

    I understand that on other Android phones, you can delete the app, but not on the Priv.

    I think I did it but I don't recall how. Maybe by creating a new ID and signing in with that one. I originally signed into BBM with my original ID so it moved from the Z30 to the Priv. But a few weeks later I missed Blend and so asked to have the Priv added as a new 'chat member' and reassigned the bbid back to the Z30. But I don't recall how I accomplished it. I looked in Hub Settings, Main Settings, Account (I can remove the account there) and opened the BBM app.

    I'm using a Priv temporary & can't figure out how to sign into a different BBID. I was using a test Gmail account BBID just to try it out, now I'm ready to try using the Priv as my main phone.

    Click and hold BBM and disable it then go to settings then apps then on top go to disable apps then enable BBM. Then you can sign in with a new bbId .
