Help! I've downloaded the official BBM5.0 via blackberry.com/messenger and have done a battery pull but i'm still unable to see any of my contact's profile pics, and likewise, they can't see mine. i've ticked the option to replace Called ID Pictures with Display Pictures, and still no luck.
anybody else have this problem or knows how to solve this?
same with me, at first it was showing all my contacts that i had linked with their facebook pictures. now it doesnt show a picture unless the contact updates their bbm picture.
yeah, i am refering to contacts who have also uploaded BBM5 and changed their profiles pics. unfortunately, i don't see anything. they're mostly javelin and bold users. but its strange that i still can't see anything.
and yes, i've already done a battery pull. i have no idea what else to do.

my contact pictures populated over about 12 hours. Some showed up immediately but others seemed to take their sweet time. There didn't seem to be any relationship between carrier or phone model either

maybe try resending service books, then battery pull
It's not a bug. You guys don't have to do anything. Give it some time for the app to register with the network. It might take anywhere between and hour to 24 hours. Just go about doing whatever you do on BBM and the pictures will magically appear.
that doesn't guarantee that all of the contacts pics will immediately appear. it takes some times for the pics to appear. just be patient. mine has loaded half of my 200+ contacts pics in about 4 hours.
I had to scroll to each contact and hit the BB menu button and then"remove contact link". Then go ahead and re-add the contact link. Pics showed up immediately once I did that, but I had to do it for each contact. May not be necessary, but it worked. I didn't feel like waiting a day to see if they randomly appeared.
ok update: as of today, out of my entire contact list, i am able to see a grand total of 3 contacts. so this proves that they are coming in realllllll slow and i just have to be patient.
This is happening with me also.. Buttincheek, are you using an OFFICIAL operating system, or one of the leaked 5.0's?!..
I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I "think" that all the pictures were there when I had BBM 5.0 on OS 4.7, but when I updated to OS 5.0.0.230, was when contact images had disappeared..
Seems weird as the majority of them are there, just a few oddballs that won't display, and they DO have one set.
I also have none of them connected to contacts or Facebook, so this has nothing to do with it..
The fix was to remove and re-add the contacts that were missing (and make sure they updated their BBM client as well). Make sure they delete you as well..
