Thread: Blackberry Messanger...GONE

Help...
Just did a fresh install of V7 which totally ROCKS.....
I went to send off a mssg using the Blackberry messanger and it's no longer there!
Did a full backup, everything works well except the IVISTA-360 Theme and sure enough can't find where or what the heck happened to the BB mssngr.
Tried to click and highlight thru the desktop mgr but it's no where to be found.
Anyone have or had this issue...at:

Have no worries. From your BB browser go the following site and you can download it OTA

try removing the hyrbid and reinstalling .148 and then trying DM to install again

Hey CDNSTORM..
I would try looking in your instant messaging folder to see if it was moved by the loader app too

~Michael~

Man you guys R Quick...
Will try the OTA download....
As for re-loading the whole thing again...Will use it as a last resort.
As for the app being moved to instant messaging....No luck been thru every possible folder...


Thanks again..it's folks like you that really make BB OS #1:fing02:

And you double checked application loader on DM to see if it wasn't unchecked?

also, did you double check in options>advanced options>applications to verify whether or not bbm is actually loaded on your phone?

Bryan;
the application loader on the DM does NOT show any BBM...Actually it only shows the apps I installed and none of the core apps.
Think I need to Nuke DM and re-install.

Laney,
checked advance/options/applications....and guess what...NOT THERE...
Not good....I think my DM is corrupted.

In the process of removing DM...Will try to re-install..keep you posted

if you connect your phone to your pc and go to c/program files/common files/research in motion/apploader and run apploader, when the application loader wizard comes up, is blackberry messenger checked off or not? if not, you can check it and run it and apploader will install it on your phone

Laney,
Makes sense to go back to the apploader....tried that and Houston we have a problem.
The only thing showing in the apploader programs is my own apps and NON of the system apps.
Did a fresh install of DM and shows the same thing..my own apps and NO system apps..
I guess it's time to wipe the storm again and start over....any other ideas...

did you try the ota link maybe?

the OTA link is only for ver 4.0 and 4.1....regardless I tried it and it failed saying that the version I have has BBM built in...
Looks like I need to wipe it....

let us know how it goes

Wipe your phone and install a fresh copy of whatever OS you want. It sounds like a corrupt copy of the OS to me. Also yes that OTA link is not valid with the newer OS's.

Good Luck

Do what Bryan said, wipe the device, do a fresh install of the OS, app loader is much easier IMO. And when you do that, make sure BBMs box is checked to get installed on to the device. Good luck!
