- This may have already been posted, but for those of you who have been having a hard time sucessfully downloading the new BBM 5.0.2.11 from the Beta Zone via the OTA link, do not use this method, even though they say so. Simply downloaded it through your computer browser within Beta Zone. You'll be asked to plug your phone in and then it will load BBM on to your phone. The keycode will also be generated automatically once you do this.
Hope this helps.Last edited by Apocalypso; 02-20-11 at 11:40 PM.

According to previous messages from RIM, the BlackBerry Messenger Beta program is currently full and they are not accepting new users into the program. It is possible that RIM will open the program up in a while, but for now, there is no way to join the program.
As a further heads up, the BBM 6 download is an unauthorized leak and accordingly, RIM will not provide keycodes for it. Accordingly, at this point in time, it is best to stick with an official version of BBM. In addition, most users won't notice a difference between BBM 6 and BBM 5, so until the platform is ready for prime time, there is actually no real benefit to downloading BBM 6. In other words, at this point in time, it doesn't matter if you have access to BBM 6 or not. You won't notice any difference.pjmacklin likes this.02-20-11 09:32 PMLike 1 -
Ge a life? What are you 14?
I didn't say that. I said...A MOD THERE says.........
Just warning people that downloading the beta BBM is not going to give them a keycode automatically for a while until RIM announces again!02-20-11 09:44 PMLike 0 -
That response was a mod basically chewing him out. Go look for yourself. https://www.blackberry.com/beta/threads/view/2714
If they abruptly stop the testing, this would be one of the primary reasons why.
Talking about get a life................middbrew likes this.02-20-11 10:08 PMLike 1 - Actually, I've been a beta member for quite some time (almost a year) and the BBM beta was one of several programs that I was invited to participate in. I only noticed the invite just the other day after logging in to my beta zone account.
Guess I'm one of the lucky ones.
