A friend of mine has a contact name in his BlackBerry messenger that is blank (In the contact list), however it appears normally during the BB chat. Also when you try to open the contact info (To view the PIN, status, and name) it does not allow me. (A strange error msg appears that I cant remember)

However the person�s status appears in the main bb messenger screen.

He wont tell me how it's done and so far everyone I asked couldn't give me an answer. !


EXAMPLE of the main contact screen:

BLANK - Working from home today


The name is completely blank (No dots or commas etc).

I want to know:

1. How can you do it?
2. Who has to change the name (The unknown contact or my friend?)
3. How can I open the contact info?
4. Can all BB do this or certain models or networks/

Additional Info:

Phone: BB Curve 8900
Network: Etisalat
Weird contact's phone or network: Unknown (He won't tell me)

Appreciate any info you can give!

what version of BBM are you using

[AZBBFAN]

if you are running 5.0 try restoring contact list

He probably isn't telling you as he doesn't know. It is probably just a glitch. Like you say it shows up in other places so obviously there is nothing special about it.

Hi CJ, Don't know which version he's using. All I know is that it happens to one of his contacts and not all of them. His BB is fine, and according to him he knows how to make it like that. Strange...

You might be right Radius, but I think there is a way to make contacts private in BB msgr. Just like MSN. Right?

I think he is just being a funny guy. if not have him show you and then share it with the CB nation!

I don't think he will cuz he's a ***** with these things! SOB even dared me to find out! And I'm the kind of person who HATES to loose.....
