    Not sure if I'm stupid or missing something but how do I update my BBM profile and picture? I tried swiping and using the menu on the bottom right when on BBM and can't figure this out. Can the picture only be updated through the picture app? How do I update my status and settings?

    Not a dumb question!

    Open up BBM via the BBM icon, not the Hub.

    Tap anywhere on top bar, whether your picture or the blue bar with your status.
    From there you can update your status.
    Tap your picture to replace it with another.

    You can also replace your picture directly in Pictures without opening BBM.
    From the list, long press a thumbnail, then select Set As from action menu on right. An option will be BBM Picture.
    If you have the full image open, tap overflow menu (3 dots, bottom right) and select Set As.

    Now that's an answer. An elite answer!

    Thank you very much! I was opening from the hub, thus very limited options. I didn't think to open from the icon, I thought it would have the same options as the hub.

    You're welcome guys! Glad it helped.


    Btw, edited my original post so it says:
    "... Tap anywhere on top bar..."

    It said "Tap on the tap bar" before. That just sounds silly!

    This is how you CB10, son!
