Blackberry Games App Help!

I like to play the odd game while killing time in the washroom. Since the new update, every time I would play a game, the Blackberry Games app would pop up and ask me to get started. Finally, I caved and hit "Get Started" in hopes to get rid of it. The Games app automatically sent a broadcast to all of my BBM contacts without my knowledge or permission. I went to permissions and tried to change it, but the permissions are locked. Now whenever I play a game it broadcasts to all of my BBM contacts. Since it is a BB operating system app, I cannot delete it.
I have done some searching on the internet and I'm not the only one with this problem. However, I have yet to find a solution. Can someone please help??? I don't want my colleagues to know that I'm playing games every time I head to the washroom.
Solutions I have tried without success:
1) Changing settings in the Games App...There really aren't any settings in this app
2) Changing permissions...Permissions are locked. It's not possible to turn off
3) Deleting the app...App cannot delete because it's a BB native operating system app

Hi dadamwalker,
Sorry to hear you're having issues with BlackBerry Games.
What software version does your BlackBerry Z10 have installed?
To clarify, under Settings>Security and Privacy>Application Permissions when you tap the box that says Permissions All and change it to Connect to BBM, you are unable to disable Games?
Thanks!

    i have been running my 4 year old imac from snow leopard on an external hard drive.  I am considering cleaning off the internal drive (750 GB) and using it to test out Lion.
    Good plan. But why on the TM drive? I'd use the SL drive.
    You'll need to download Lion installer on your SL. Then, do a clean install of Lion on your internal, and migrate your stuff from SL in Setup Asistant.

  • Game app help on Facebook with ipad2

    I can't collect gifts from slotomania. I've downloaded the app, every time I try to use slotomanis on Facebook it keeps coming up with a page to download, then I can't get out of that screen.

    If you have the app all what I do is tilt it so it is on its side then the bar on the right hand side will come up with your recent chats and people who are online then it shows the green dot who is online then tap the name then the chat collom comes up and then type your message and send then it should have sent

  • I have an iPad 2 and all of a sudden I have no sound in game apps. I have usual volume in videos and YouTube, I do get volume for games if I plug in headphones. I have switched to screen lock off and on again and I have also done a reset twice.....help :)

    I have an ipad2 and all of a sudden I have stopped getting sound in my game apps. I get normal sound on YouTube and I player and downloaded DVDs. If I plug headphones in then I can get sounds for the games. I have switched the lock screen button off and on again and done a reset twice, can anyone help me with this?

    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

    3. Tap on Reset
    4. Tap on Reset All Settings

  • How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

    How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!
    I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
    If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • Unable to make an in app purchase while I'm in a game! Help

    Unable to make an in app purchase while I'm in a game! Help!!! While in a game if I want to upgrade to full version
    And put in my Apple ID password it states unable to connect to apple store or it has said incorrect user id and password
    But if I go to App Store I can make the purchase. Please help it is frustrating

    Check the settings - perhaps you have enabled restrictions (see: iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)).

  • HELP!!!!!! I'm trying to download a few game/apps on my iPad and it's just saying waiting and not budging????? Anyone know what this might be? Please help me!!!

    HELP!!!!!! I'm trying to download a few game/apps on my iPad and it's just saying waiting and not budging????? Anyone know what this might be? Please help me!!!

    Although having it loading 5 at a time is not ideal, the iPad is more than capable of doing it, it merely pauses those after the first requested. It will install one at a time then go to the next, installing one at a time rather than trying to do a group like this shouldn't yield any great benefit.
    Also don't forget that some apps are hundreds of MB in size so depending on your internet connection will just take a lot longer to download than those which are only 1 or 2 MB in size.
    I only have a 0.8MB broadband connection when it's at it's fastest so am used to checking the sizes of apps before downloading, it's very frustrating when you forget and hit download only to spend the next 30 mins or so watching a blue progress bar creep across te 10 mm of icon space!!
    @shannon207 Seeing as you are no longer posting I can only assume you have sorted the issue.
    If you are still having issues please post again and we can try and help further.

    Upgraded my 4s to 6.0 software and now my game apps have crashed and my wifi is on off without allowing me to turn it on? Help!!!

    So your telling me that I have to restore as new and loose everything?? I do have it backed up thru iCloud but I'm out of memory so will I regain everything from the last backup date? Because I decided not to backup on my computer. I can do that now just to save my pictures. But why would apple not offer a fix other than restoring? It's their upgrade that has disabled my phone functions. This is bs!!!
    Are you an apple cs support person or just a user of their products?

  • Ipod touch 3rd gen game app accidentally deleted and can't recover game to status before deletion...Help!!!!

    I've got an ipod touch 3rd gen and accidentally deleted an app but now after resyncing it i've lost all the data and the app goes back to default. Is there a way to restore the app including all the previous data. I was at level 34 and now back to level 1

    Sadly it seems the settings to sync everytime i connect has overwritten the backup because I only just checked it not to sync automatically . I'm new to using apple as I'm a true and true windows geek and thought it should at least keep 3 sets of backups...boy am I wrong . That's months of work on a game app gone .

  • Backing up and restoring app data of an App World (BlackBerry World) app

    I'd like to do a security wipe on my old Bold 9700 and then reinstall/restore an App World (BlackBerry World) app that I purchased with the same BlackBerry ID.
    1. Can I reinstall an app via App World after a security wipe?
    2. WIll the app data (e.g. game scores) be restored?
    3. I did a full back up with BDS7, if reinstalling the app on a security wiped phone does not reinstate the app data, can I retrieve the app data by restoring the app from the backup?
    4. What about copying the .rem files of the App World folder of the app to my computer, reinstalling the app via App World and then copying the .rem files back to the Blackberry? Or is there another location I should look for the app data?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    To re-install your apps, please see this KB:

    That I'm not sure of...it likely depends on how the scores are stored. If they are stored on the device, then it might be able to re-obtain that information after you reinstall the app. Likewise, if they are stored on some server somewhere, it might be able to do so. But there's really no way for anyone but the app developer to know for sure. If I were you, I'd prepare myself for those being lost as a result of this activity.

    Maybe -- again, it depends on how the app works, which only the app developer can say. Some apps store data in AppMemory (which is what gets backed up), others store their data in Device or Media Card Memory (which is not necessarily backed up). And it may well be moot anyway, depending on how the developer coded the app.

    Same issue...it all depends on how the developer coded the app. If the coded it to ignore any stored data anywhere each time the app is installed, then you can't force it to read anything, regardless of where you might restore it to. But, again, only the developer of the app can tell you what will happen in these circumstances.

  • Games app

    I have a game app that I can not uninstall or delete, Help! I get this message:  “Game Center.app” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by OS X.

    Hey beebo,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    I will suggest for you to contact your network service provider and ask to be transferred to BlackBerry.  We will need to further investigate this issue.
    I appreciate your patience.

  • Facebook game app loading issues

    None of my FB game apps load/completely load.  On one I get the message that javascript needs to be enabled...but it is.  I also updated java and flash to no avail.  Is anyone else having this difficulty?

    Hello farhanjq and welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    Sorry to hear you are having issues with BlackBerry App World™
    From Options>Applications (or Options>Device>Application Management - depending on your software version) delete App World and reboot.
    After the reboot completes go to www.blackberry.com/appworld on your browser and reinstall App World. Ensure you reboot after the installation completes.
    Check to ensure the icons show up after the reinstall.
