    I'm new to the berry family! Got a curve with sprint and couldn't be any happier!

    questions:

    what's a PING?

    why doesn't bb alerts work for bb messenger?
    - i set it for a different color and it still lights up as red when i get a message.

    Welcome to CB. I haven't got BB alerts yet so I don't know why it has those issues. How's the app beside that?

    Welcome to CB!

    You might want to restart or do a battery pull...I dont use BBM but the color notification should change once you change it in options. I changed it on my phone for jivetalk and it worked right away but you might want to restart/battery pull if yours isnt working.

    A PING is bb messenger; when you get a PING, it means someone is communicating with you via BB messenger....

    Thanks for the welcoming! Everyone is so friendly around here!

    I found out what a Ping was when I got a sudden vibrating in my pocket. lol BB Alerts is awesome. It works for everything except for pin. Don't know why but I will try to take out my battery and do the reset. I hope it works. I've gotten used to seeing all the colors except red. It has cyan, purple, green, blue, white and you can also do custom colors as well. I haven't tried the custom colors but will soon. Thanks for the FAQ! I sure do need it but so far I am learning a lot and this curve is getting addictive. Oh no.

    I don't know either. My friend is using another led program and hers wont allow to change the led color for bb messenger either. I still want to try the soft reset. Thanks for the welcome!
