    When I've had bridging issues, I do the following:

    Disconnect Bridge
    Turn off Bluetooth on both devices
    Turn Blue tooth back on and give both devices a different BT device name
    Pair them again by scanning the PB QR Code with the BB

    Hope that helps.

    That WORKED! Now the test will be ~ will it bridge again after I have shut the devices down. I'll try that now.
    <Heavy Sigh> After I turned off both devices, again, it won't bridge!
    Thank you for your suggestion though......

    Can I just say I love you guys!!! For all things Blackberry you R O C K ! ! ! Thank you, thank you, thank you ! ! !

    Just had to turn in my torch due to the little cover coming off by the track pad that controls the on/off phone, escape, and bb icon...Easy warrenty exchange w/ ATT and easy restore since I regularly back up my bb's but the Bridge app didn't get sucked into the new phone when I restored...No worries, searched crackberry.com found origional post, rembered there was an update, searched for updated post w/ newer version of Bridge, got an error message, went to the forum here and 'ta da' corrected link to download the Bridge!

    Ugh, did I say I love you???!!!

    Go into BBM on your phone, and remove all the "special characters, smilies, etc" from your friends list names. eg my friend Shara's bbm nick was " -thumbs up emote- $$hara " . Change that back to Shara...

    and try again. Works like a charm

    The playbook cant currently handle special characters is BBM names. When you have friends with these fancy chars in their names BBM doesnt want to open

    Ive got the most up to date version of the bridge running on my toch.

    Seems really unstable on the playbook , keeps dropping connection.


    BBM 6.0 works okay accross the bridge

    HOWEVER , when teitherd its pointless having the bridge

    Why cant you internet teither and STILL run bbm , email ect ?!

    First impressions of the playbook arnt fantastic either.

    No prospects of Turn by Turn GPS

    The GPS is poor anyway

    Naff all IM apps

    No skype for playbook or BB
    No MSN Messenger ( windows live)
    No Built in File browser ?!

    No support for JAD files?!

    No bluetooth file transfer!?

    All seems very ...... " comming soon "

    And considering how easy everyone has said its been to create apps for the playbook using adobe air.

    Why is the list of apps so crap!?

    EA games ..... nout. sure need for speed is decent , but tetris.

    Not making any ground breaking discoveries are we.

    someone proove me wrong?!


    Oh by the way. RIMS shares dropped 20% this morning

    Some phones will allow it and some wont. I also believe it has something to do with CDMA or GSM but I really don't have a clue about that.

    However I do know this solution for GSM phones which don't allow it and specifically the TORCH

    I just loaded up my 9000, and whenever I try to download bridge it fails and I get this error:

    "907 Invalid COD
    Unable to import ZIP file"

    Has anyone seen this or been able to get around it? I'm going to be on this device for a couple days and would like to get bridge working. BTW I am on the latest AT&T official OS that I just got from DM.

    The bridge in my pb doesnot show the [contact] app in the pb screen. Only messages, Bridge browser, Calender, BBM, Memopad, Tasks.

    I have re-installed bridge again, also renamed the playbook and then re-installed bridge. But... it does not work as Contacts does not appear in the screen.

    Is this a bug or am I doing smth wrong?
    I use PB 32GB and a BB Bold 9780- OS 6-package 2534

    Thanks for your help.

    I finally got the BlackBery Bridge installed on my 9700 (OS5). But I can't find it anywhere. How do you run it?

    You can open app world and look for Bridge and choose the RUN option. It should have appeared in your downloads/Home screen provided that you rebooted your berry after installation.

    Why does my 9300 Curve abort the OTA (6.0) and indicate that
    it's a ZIP file? Is it and must it be unzipped via Win O/S.

    Update: Downloaded to PC and unzipped. Then download to Curve.
    BB Bridge did not show-up in the menu although the BB PC app
    indicated the BB Bridge was on the Curve. Next, updated the
    Curve O/S - lengthy process. Re-booted the curve and used the
    OTA here, executed the downloaded app, re-booted again,
    and the BB Bridge appeared in the menu. Linked to the PB
    with Bluetooth and BB Bridge worked great!

    I came across the Bridge app in AppWorld and clicked on it today. Instead of the usual denial of my device, Bold 9000, because it was an ATT exclusive, it let me download and install it. I wonder if ATT finally approved the Bridge or did RIM set AppWorld up to recognize that I'm on T-Mo?
