Blackberry Messenger icons..

What do the different icons beside the contact mean on blackberry messenger? The X, - and the one that looks like a square clock?
thanks

X sign appears when your contact is unreachable
During on a conversation when the 2nd party gets a call then your messages you'll not pass through. At that time a clock sign will appear.

I don't have the Blackberry Messenger Icon

Hello,
I just got 3 Blackberry curve , and in two of them , I have the Blackberry messenger Icon and I'm able to do instant messages (peer to peer). However, one of them doesn't have the icon, and my provider, Tmobile, doesn't help me.
How can I get the icon?

Have you looked in the "Instant Messaging" folder? TMobile likes to hide it in that folder. If you don't see it in there then go to Options >Advanced Options >Applications and let us know if it's listed in the list of applications.

Can't find my BlackBerry Messenger icon

Hello,
I've had my BlackBerry Bold 9700 for more than 3 months
Lately, the icon's been getting stuck on my Main Screen
So, I always ended up uninstalling and reinstalling, and the problem would always get fixed
But last time I did that, my BlackBerry Messenger disappeared
I tried everything!
I looked through every single folder, ticked Show All, but nothing
I also went to Explore, showed hidden files, there was nothing
I tried rebooting, deleting and reinstalling, also nothing
I also went on Desktop Manager, checked the Application Loader, and it's there, it's ticked
I checked Options > Applications > Add-on, and I can see that the BlackBerry Messenger is installed (Research In Motion Limited, version 5.0.1.38)
My Device Software is updated, and when I check for updates, it says no updates available
I tried Security Wipe, but it's still not there
I tried to backup and restore as well, but nothing's changed
What am I missing?
Do I have to downgrade?
What else do I have to do?...

Problem solved.
Try this!
Don't delete your BlackBerry Messenger from Options > Applications
Even if you can't find it in your home screen, leave it as it is
Go to http://www.blackberry.com/messenger using your BlackBerry browser
Download and it'll ask you if you want to overwrite, so all you have to do is accept
Worked for me!
Hope this helps

Please advise how I move it out of this folder and back to the Home Screen?

Blackberry messenger app wont open

Well a couple of days ago, my blackberry froze so i decided to pull the battery out for a couple of seconds and put it back in again to resolve this. However, when i tried opening up the blackberry messenger app, it wouldn't open. The bbm app icon is still there, but it just doesn't let me open the app. Yes, i've rebooted it like a million times and yet i'm still having the same problem. I only paid £5 and activated my bbm last week, so i'm pretty sure it hasn't run out yet. Bbm has been working fine until now, and my phone is working fine too, but i have no idea how to get the app to work.

Please confirm that your phone is powered ON when you remove your battery; it won't work if your phone is OFF.
If that's not the case, reloading the OS to the phone using BlackBerry Desktop Software might do the trick. For most apps, I would suggest deleting the reinstalling the app itself but with BBM being a core app, you might not be able to do that so proceed with an OS reload.
Keep us posted on your progress.

Blackberry appworld version: 4.0.0.63
OK, that is almost the latest version... .65 is later.
You can upgrade your AppWorld from using your BlackBerry browser to go to www.blackberry.com/appworld
After you upgrade, Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
IF then you don't see or can't find the AppWorld icon, please post back here.

Blackberry Messenger, unable to view others' replies

I've had my phone working for about a week now. It's a Curve 8320. I've noticed that yesterday and today there is a BB Messenge icon and when I check the messages I can see the first few words of the message but am unable to view the remaining text. Also when I open up BB Messenger, I only see my comments and not those of my contacts. I know I have a message because of the red blinking light but for whatever reason, I'm unable to view their messages. Has anybody else had any similar experiences with their BB Messenger or have any suggestions to get it to work properly.
I have a 4GB Micro SD card.
Yvete

I have the same issue with my blackberry messenger - it only started a few weeks ago, but no incoming messages can be read.
I can sit next to my gf and send her messages, but I only see the first 4 characters of my received messages in the initial message list and then can't read messages in BB messenger.
Any ideas on fixing this?

Blackberry Messenger Missing from my Bold

Hi, I had my bold for a year now. The other day trying to install the new version of the bb messenger the appstore app crashed. After restarting my bb I found out that my bb messenger icon was gone. So I tried to erase both app's (app store and bb messenger) and re installing it. But nothing happened I have my appstore icon in my desktop, I have installed both again (appstore app, and messenger) the thing that it's burning my mind and I can't find any solution it's that when I go to settings>advanced setting>application I see that the bb messenger it's installed (and yes I al ready check that the icon it's not hidden) further more I go to the appstore my world and I find my bb messenger installs I click on the "run" button but nothing happens.
Anyone, please? I'm melting my brain trying to find a solution but nothing happens, please Santa bring me an answer!!!!
Solved!

Euniq9, do this:
Use your BlackBerry Messenger function to backup your contacts you have now, and also, do a complete backup using Desktop manager.
Then, go to Options > Advanced > Applications and scroll the Messenger application and don't click on it, just scroll to it. Click Menu > Delete and remove the application.
Now, do a reboot: With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
Finally, use your BlackBerry browser to go to http://blackberry.com/blackberrymessenger and download/install the Messenger application again.
After installation and possibly another reboot, check your Instant Messaging Folder, or Downloads folder for the application.
You can restore your contacts from the BBM v.5 application or from the Desktop Manager > Backup/Restore > Advanced.

BB messenger icon

Hi all,
I've seen various posts on this but still cannot resolve.
II have a curve 8310, with a v4.5 software, and cannot see the BB Messenger icon on my desktop. If I look under Otions>Advanced Options> Applications I can see it installed, but don't know how to make it appear on the desktop!
Anyone can help?

Have you looked in a any folders or a "Instant Messging" folder on the device?
Or, on is it hidden? On the mainscreen, press Menu and check SHOW ALL.

BlackBerry Messenger 6.0.0.125 released!

From:
http://www.berryreview.com/2011/07/28/rim-releases-blackberry-messenger-6-officially/
RIM Delivers Revolutionary Social App Experience with BBM 6
Apps become social experiences once users can interact with their BBM friends
Waterloo, ON – BBMTM (BlackBerry® Messenger), one of the largest mobile social networks in the world is now enabling a new and revolutionary social experience. Research In Motion (RIM) (NASDAQ: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today announced the availability of BBM version 6 (BBM 6), which provides support for "BBM connected" apps, allowing users to easily interact with each other from within the BBM connected app.
BBM connected apps integrate the popular functionality of the BBM service and offer users the ability to interact with their friends from within the app itself. For example, with a BBM connected game app, users can invite their BBM friends to join them in a game and then chat with one another in real time while the game is being played – without ever leaving the game app.
BBM 6 launches today and a selection of BBM connected apps are already available on BlackBerry App WorldTM.
“BBM 6 marks the beginning of an even greater social experience for BlackBerry smartphone users,” said Alistair Mitchell, VP, BBM Platform & Integrated Services at Research In Motion. “It also represents an incredible opportunity for developers to leverage the viral nature of the BBM service and we have already begun working with various developer partners who will be bringing their BBM connected apps to BlackBerry App World this week, offering users highly engaging app experiences.”
Some of the additional functionality users can expect to see with BBM connected applications include the ability to:
Share app experiences with friends – When a user discovers a great new BBM connected app, they can instantly let their friends know about it. Users can simply select a BBM contact directly within the BBM connected app they are using.
Have a BBM chat within apps – Users can simply pull up their BBM contact list directly from within the BBM connected app and start chatting. For example, the functionality can enable everything from enhanced social game play to collaboration through productivity apps.
Discover apps through friends – Users can also discover new apps by viewing the list of apps that are posted to a BBM friend’s profile. They can also click on an app within the list, and instantly download it from BlackBerry App World.
The BBM 6 software will be available later today at www.blackberry.com/blackberrymessenger. A selection of BBM connected apps will also be posted on BlackBerry App World this week, with many more expected over the coming months.
