Hi everyone. Like most of you, I don't like the last few BBM updates.

Loss of true HD request and those silly emoticons are the main reasons.

I was quite handy with BB10 and sideloading but I have no clue if and how it can be done on Android or more specifically with the PRIV.

Any help is much appreciated.

Emoticons will be reverting back in the next update.

Remaining on an older version is not a very good idea, as things can start breaking rather quickly.

I like finding out the hard way! Is there a way I can do it?!

Uninstall updates, and download/install the version of your choice from apkmirror.

Thanks Conite. How do I load an older .apk?
