When I visited Verizon, the techs there told me BBM 5.0 will not work with the new software.

Update. It didn't work when i downloaded it from app world. When i downloaded it from the browser it worked. So I'm good.

Well we've known for a long time all reps for carriers don't know **** all. and it's working for me? OF COURSE IT IS.

I had BBM 5.0 before the software upgrade. It was removed during the update. Now I have no BBM.
So, BBM 5.0 works with the new software? Is it safe to just download it again?

[WAT LOL]

Having the same problem here. Let's see if downloading it from the browser works.

Yeah i tryed to download it from app world and it said it was installed and told me to reboot then when i rebooted there was no messenger so then i tried it from the browser and it works so idk. So far its working.

Try this one from your phone and select yes when it overwrites: BBM 5.0.0.33 For OS 5.0.0 (1.2 KB)

[trigun123478#CB]

are you telling me to download that ? its already working for me. I fixed by downloading from the browser i'm afraid to try that in case it messes something up.

First thing, go to Options, Applications, and change 3rd Part to Add-ons .... see if there is a BB messenger there alreay. If there is DELETE it and do a battery pull. Then go to http://blackberry.com/messenger and download it using your BB Browser. It will appear in your Instant Messaging Folder and it works fine. As soon as you launch it there will be a prompt to restore all your contacts from RIM.

you can download the new messenger from app world if you don't have 4.7 already installed I on purpose left it out in the install so i could do a fresh install of bbm 5 works just fine.
