AT&T Users: AIM & YIM Service Now Supported

Apparently service books were sent out! I just download, installed, and successfully used AIM and Yahoo Messenger from mobile.blackberry.com on my Bold on AT&T. Give it a try to see if you have success as well, especially if you have a different device.

Saw AIM on the BB site this morning on my BOLD, downloaded it, and it works great! Never had an issue with YIM, even on my curve.

*sigh* from one addiction to another... :)

Thanks for the info!

I downloaded aim and no icon showed up.. i couldn't find it anywhere on my phone..

It was in my instant messaging folder after a little time went by.

Thanks for the heads up. I used your method for Yahoo, but never
had AIM so this makes me smile.

And just to add device info 8310 running 4.2.2.194

I don't have an instant messaging folder.

is it true?

i've been asking everyone for the past 3 days how to do the workaround on the new 4.6 DM

I can't wait til i get outta work and try it! :D

hey thats awesome! thanks soo much for that !

on a separate note, if i leave myself signed in, and close the app, will this drain my battery big time? or is it minimal in the grand scheme of things?

Just downloaded it. Thanks!

Any app you run in the background will play a part in battery drain. This one? Im not so sure.

ok...just downloaded it!

Sweet!

thanks at&t...what would we do without messengers at work? ughhh- genius!

does this aim app use text messaging or data?
