BBM 6 + BlackBerry Torch = Bad Combination?

**minauderie** · 08-01-2011, 06:17 AM

I can't be sure, but when I downloaded the new BBM 6 from the app world tonight after work, I'm pretty sure it screwed up my phone badly. It went into the cyclical reboot and I had to reload (and subsequently upgraded to the latest multilanguage one on the RIM website for my carrier AT&T) my OS and after another battery pull or 2, it finally started up.

Did this happen to anyone else? Do I dare touch BBM 6 again?

I've been running .600(latest official OS from ATT) since it was leaked a few months back. Was also running bbm 6.0.0.115(i think) from beta zone with no issues. Upgraded to to the latest official version of BBM6 with 0 issues.

I've been running 600 since it was leaked, BBM updated just fine for me. Haven't experienced your issue yet.

no problems here with .600 and bbm6...

I had tried a leaked .115 version a few weeks ago and now updated to official BBM 6 version. I am running OS .600.
Never had a single issue..

My guess is a bad install..

no problems here either. did you also upgrade or install something else?

I hate it and I want the old version back. I had .111 before I got .125. I can't see who's playing music anymore, and I love that feature.

I'm running a .600 hybrid (with a lot of BB7 cods) and BBM6 works very well.

I don't remember what I was running before but in fixing my phone, I upgraded myself to .600 and am running it now, but I am understandably hesitant to try to upgrade to BBM6 again.

I installed bbm6 last night and from then to this morning its still restarting itself, only problem is it wont stop restarting and the bbm6 icon is missing. my os is .600 as well and my phone model is the torch 9800.This is driving me insane and dont have any idea what to do. Any solutions to this problem????

I completely agree. Ive had the latest bbm downloaded and since i got it, my torch has been freezing on startup sountless times. Im not sure what it is but i know its bbm because as soon as i updated it after a wipe, the problem started up again.
