drag and drop the alx file in the os folder..

ok its installed and i have the shared folder finally! now lets see if i have this. ALL .cod files from bbm go into the JAVA folder and the alx goes into the folder that is the version number of my phone?

Do I loose all my previous BBM Contacts?


Do I have to start afresh?

Does this apply to OS 5.0.0.100?

Good job dan. I guess you will get to do your g/f's after all.
Thanks again E

yes it does too...

I didn't drag the .alx file...just copied and pasted the .cod files. All appears to be working. Should I move that and reinstall again

you can try that way first.....

are there any good links to get different os's and or good tutorials on here?
