BB World Update Notifications (Spark) appears (Z10): NO APP(S) TO UPDATE?!?!

**pepe68** · 03-10-2013, 06:09 PM

Hey everyone,

I am wondering if this is happening to anyone else?

If I launch BB World and view the listing, I sometimes see that My World has the SPARK saying there is an update. So I continue to my Apps and select to check for updates. updates check complete: There are no updates?!?!?

Why am I seeing the SPARK in BB world when there are no updates? Is t just me?

Cheers!

Hope one of the CB Team will see this thread and possibly shed some light on this or even trigger a flare at the BlackBerry World team.

At least now I know I'm not alone.

Cheers

I started a few days ago, but I've actually had updates every time the Spark appeared.

Well not met, unless it appears in the hub

Has been happening for a while to me. Actually, the only time it's not there, it's when I actually have updates pending!

Not only do I get the spark and then there is no update - but, when there is, the hub notification only appears after I have opened BB World and checked myself!

This is happening to me as well and has been happening since I've had the phone. There are some other threads about this. I'm sure that there will be a fix for this down the road, The BlackBerry World team must be aware that this is happening
(That last sentence is a guess)

Well there is a BlackBerry user who "Gets things Done". Nicely organized screen.

Omg yes! Exaaaaaact same, for example my friend got the notification for CB10 1.3 in his hub. And I didn't get the notification until I manually checked for updates. I have always have the spark there regardless :s

Theres a spark from time to time for me, and it used to be that when there is a spark, you click on it, it will show you which one to update. For the past 2-3 days, I click the spark, it shows all my apps. I have to go through the list one by one, once i get to the one that has an update, i get a notification in my Hub, i have to click the hub to update the app. It won't show the update in the app world. =(

Yeah, I have it too -- spark on My World, but no actual updates -- almost every time I enter Blackberry World.

**talonsoes** · 03-24-2013, 07:39 AM

Same to me... hope new version will fix it..

**knighty2112** · 03-24-2013, 08:00 AM

Me too. Nine times out of ten there is no actual update when checked . Definitely a bug in BlackBerry world app.

You can go to appworld swipe down from the top,then press settings and touch the version number at the bottom it should clear the appworld cache and spark

This happens to me, too, and it's getting old.

You can't fix it. It's a bug. We have to wait for a fix from BlackBerry.

SirJes,

I would like to know where you got this information that says this will clear the cache & spark??

After make a few inquiries and checking out you process, this does absolutely nothing, from what we can gather.

This is an issue with BB World and needs to be addressed. I was hoping that someone at CB or even BBRY for that matter to have atleast posted something addressing this issue.

We still wait for another firmware update that may address the issue. Hopefully this will be soon.

Cheers!
