- I tried to add my Yahoo inbox to Quicklaunch but I was only get the net_rim_bb_messaging that you speak of that opened up the Blackberry Messenger. Perhaps I am doing something incorrectly. I am sure that I opened up my Yahoo launcher button on my homescreen, opened up Quicklaunch, clicked on applications and got the net_rim_bb_messaging string, but, I don't think that lead me back to my Yahoo inbox. I will try it again, but, do you have any pointers on how to add the yahoo inbox to Quicklaunch.
Thank you for any help!

If you have probs let me know.03-15-09 07:19 PMLike 0 -
- Yes, this is correct. RIM only allows 3rd party apps to link to the 'Inbox". If it were possible to open a specific folder etc then it most definitely would already be in QL because I made this app as a necessity that I myself had which was the need to get everywhere on the phone quickly and I put in as much as I could. there will be updates too as things progress. The storm version has already had 4 updates in the last 2-3 months03-15-09 07:21 PMLike 0
- the alx file is in the zip. i just checked. it wasn't there the first 4-5 hours after i released and someone pointed it out to me so i put it in there. it's there now definitely.
one thing to note is that if you lose your zip file or whatever you can always go back to mobihand or crackberry log in to my account and download it again.03-15-09 07:25 PMLike 0 - Hi. Several instant messengers such as yahoo won't let other apps (ie: QL) start them. I know this is unfortunate but I have contacted them to see if they could make a change and am waiting to hear from them. Several other apps have made modifications so that they can be started from QL. QuickText is one example that I recall.03-15-09 07:30 PMLike 0
- that means you selected the wrong app in the list.
bb messenger is the rim_blah_blah_qm_peer one.
if you've messed up just delete and re-add but you've probably already done this.03-15-09 07:33 PMLike 0 - It was my understanding that Quicklaunch would not let you open your yahoo inbox...It is not a big deal because I do have a yahoo mail launcher icon on the homescreen, and this is still a great app!03-15-09 07:40 PMLike 0
- currently QL can only open your "inbox" that is linked to the Blackberry mail system. i have my gmail and yahoo mail and hotmail setup in my bb (not using apps) so when i hit inbox on ql i have access all my mail in one place and don't have to hop all over the place.03-15-09 07:42 PMLike 0

I have now created a folder for all of the icons of the applications I can access via QuickLaunch and my desktop is bare now
I am still playing with it....

It's even better when you get used to using it. for awhile you will fall back on old habits and do things the 'old' way but eventually QL will become habit and then it's really handy.03-15-09 07:52 PMLike 0 - 03-15-09 08:15 PMLike 0

Try this:
1: Open Bubble Popper
2: Close Bubble Popper (If you can, hit the end button (Hang up call button) so you go back to your home screen)
3: Open QL
4: Hit the Blackberry Button
5: Choose "Add Item"
6: Scroll all the way to the bottom of the right hand column and choose "Application" box
7: Your Bubble Popper Program should be listed at this point
8: In the top box, label it whatever you want it to show up as in your QL menu
9: Press end call button and select "Save"
10: Hopefully now at this point, the program will be in your QL menu and you should be able to start it from the QL menu.03-16-09 12:07 AMLike 0 -

Thanks for the reply, this is what I've been doing and bubble popper is never listed. It's not a major problem, it's just that I used that game quit a bit to kill a little time and would love it listed in QL. Any other ideas to get Bubble Popper to work with QL?03-16-09 06:17 AMLike 0 - what happens when u hit the end key? does bubble popper stay running in the background? u can check by looking at the switch applications list.
if the end key is closing the program then try starting BP then use switch applications to go to the home screen or QL if QL is already started. let me know.03-16-09 12:32 PMLike 0 - what happens when u hit the end key? does bubble popper stay running in the background? u can check by looking at the switch applications list.
