CrackBerry Q&A > BlackBerry Bold Series Just upgraded a new 9900 to BBOS 7.1.0.862 Bundle 2435. BBW is currently version 3.1.2.42. Every time I try to access BBW, there's a popup requesting I upgrade. When I click the ok button, it re-directs to a web page in the browser with a 404 error page not found. Any ideas? No, I do not have a backup to restore; otherwise I probably would not post this request.

Some solutions here.
Methods to install or upgrade the BlackBerry World app for BlackBerry Smartphones
If none of the URLS work any more, best option is Desktop.
413 Thanks for the reply. However, after re-installing BBW the same popup appears. Click on upgrade and the browser redirects to a 404 page not found.

413 Typing in web.archive.org and typing in appworld.blackberry.com just goes back and forth in a loop to nowhere. Thanks for the suggestion though.

988 Can you upgrade to 7.1.0.1098? The later versions of 7.1 are highly rated by most users and it may provide an indirect solution to your problem of trying to update BBW.
413 "Did you try the BBW version available at theiexplorers.com/ota" Yes. No go.

1,053 For future reference, there is a v4.0.0.63 build of bbw that can be downloaded from the Web. I had a similar problem, and the BlackBerry website was dead, but I found the other version, downloaded directly onto my 9900, and it worked normally after that.

1,053 Yes, I use kindle for 99; it's my favorite ereader, mostly for size and convenience. I don't like yreader, it's slow, has ads, and it's just one long page. I convert epub to mobi so I don't have to bother with yreader.
413 I use Accuweather from BBW. The icon is actually an update-able widget that shows current condition (cloudy, sunny, etc) plus the current temperature. It has very accurate radar and satellite maps. It can show daily, hour-by-hour, seven day, etc. And it is FREE!

413 AFAIK truecaller is not available on BBW. If you can't find Accuweather, the Weather Channel is also a great weather app and it is also free. BTW, are you in the US? If not, that's probably why these apps don't show up in your localized version of BBW.
27 27 does any1 know where can i get app stalker.... it has been removed from bbw
27,943 Truecaller is only Android or IOS now according to website. It doesn't even appear to be compatible with BB10 due to ART... Unfortunately it appears that our 4-6 year old legacy devices are being left behind depending on variety of various factors.

413 These are compatible with the 9900. I have not tried any of them, so I cannot make any judgements.
1,202 I has the same problem trying to get to BB World on a new Bold I bought. This worked, and I was also able to see/download my Slacker and Pandora and Jazz Radio on this site! Happy Camper now! Thank you!
