How to upgrade App World?

I have a Torch 9800 with BB 6. When I try to install an app through App World it says:
"To continue using BlackBerry App World, you must upgrade your current version. For more information, please visit www.blackberry.com/appworld/support"
There I found this article saying that
"You can download the BlackBerry App World storefront or manually update your existing version of the BlackBerry App World storefront by visiting www.mobile.blackberry.com from your device"
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/47218/1232110.jsp
If I visit that website, there's a link to download BlackBerry App World, but it takes me to
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/
So, please, how can I upgrade the App World app?

That screen tells you nothing about the status of the Mobile Network radio being on or off...it merely tells you the state of what it "sees" and is configured to do. But that screen does not control the Mobile Network radio itself. Rather, there should be a tic box (or similar) on the Manage Connections screen itself, before you get into the detail screen that you quote here.
Sorry I can't give you precise instructions...I don't have an older device like yours, and as such have a newer OS and things are quite different.
Good luck and let us know!

  • Blackberry 9320 Error after upgrading app world, bbm, blackberry id

    Hi,
    I am a newbie and need some help here. I just bought a blackberry 9320 to replace my old 9700. After bought it, I upgrade the app world application to the newest version from app world website and bbm to bbm 7 from appworld app (9320 originally has bbm 6). When activated bbm, before running the bbm 7 it request to update blackberry id app to the newest. Then I managed to restore my bbm contact list through my blackberry id (previously I have bbm 7 on my 9700).
    After upgrading then I did the pull battery to clear the memory (hard reset), but after put the battery back and my blackberry booting, it load until displayed "JVM error 517". What went wrong? JVM error 517 refer to hardware software conflict. I tried to hard reset again but the result still JVM error 517. Then I reload the software OS 7.1 downloaded from blackberry website (OS 7.1 for Telkomsel, wireless service provider in my country, Indonesia). And then I upgraded again my blackberry app world & bbm same as I did at the first time I bought 9320, did the hard reset, and JVM error 517 appear again.
    Then I gave up and  just reload the OS 7.1 without upgrading any app on my blackberry 9320 and I cannot restore my bbm contact list since it is stored with my blackberry id (bbm 6 doesn't has feature to restore through blackberry id and I never back up my bbm contact list.
    Is there any way to restore my bbm contact list through blackberry id on bbm 6? Why after upgrading blackberry app world, bbm app from 6 to 7 and updating to the newest blackberry id app my blackberry went "JVM error 517"?
    Please help me to solve this so i can do upgrading without having any JVM 517 error again or restore my bbm contact from blackberry id on bbm app 6.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi Stevanuscolonne
    Sorry to hear about your bad experience with your previous BlackBerry !
    As a BlackBerry lover myself , I 'm glad you chosen BlackBerry again and Bold 9900 is indeed a good device . Its has a good processor and a huge internal memory and ofcourse some good features. 
    Regarding your Battery drainage problem,  Generally this occurs when applications runs in the background , or because of any unknown Third party application installed within our device . A regular battery pull restart is always advised for our BlackBerry . If we press and hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will pop up a screen which will show all running programs in the background ,generally five will always there ( Home, BBM, Message,Phone , Browser ) we should always look if any other apps. are running.
    Always try to Close Applications Correctly - Avoid using the End key to close applications as this simply minimizes the application and leaves it running in the background. Instead, press the Menu key, select the Close or Exit option to exit the application.Don't leave your Browser open on any active webpage when not in use.If programs run in the background it will also lead to overheating and also quick battery drainage.Please have a look at these Article I am sure it will help you a lot in overcoming your problems :

    Good luck and enjoy your new BlackBerry

  • Upgraded app world - login problems

    I've upgraded my app world. But now when I go into app world, it says a blackberry id is needed. But when I click yes. It says there is an error connecting to the app world server and I must log in. But it doesn't give me the option to log in so I cannot access my world or download any apps. I have already re-installed the app world but nothing helped. I have a Curve 9300. Please help, how do I fix this?

    Hey bron86,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Try clearing your App World cache as shown in http://t.co/NJTF9J2 and reboot your device by pulling the battery.

  • Unable to download/upgrade App World - Error Invalid manifest or application descriptor.

    I have tried to download 7.1, but it seems it is not available for my region (Chile). I have checked on 'Software Updates' on the device, where it indicates"Your Blackberry is up to date" and doesn't offer any option to update.  I have also checked on the Blackberry website, and it also tells me there are no updates available. It tells me I have this version on my phone: 7.0 2395 (v. 7.0.0.579, platform 5.0.0.735). It seems that the version releases may be related to geographical location and Carrier (I have Entel PCS as my carrier.) I re-installed the latest update of 7.0 that the website would allow me to do, then tried to download AppWorld, but no success. 

    Hello
    I have a Bold 9900, software 7.0
    I have had problems with App World for several months. The App on my phone indicated that an upgrade is available, however when I went to upgrade I received the following message: Error : Invalid manifest or application descriptor.
    The "MIDLet-Name" attribute is missing.
    After several failed attempts trying to download the upgrade I finally deleted App World from my phone to try to re-install it directly from the phone, but this gives me the above error message.
    I have tried to update it using the appworld.blackberry.com site, but was unsuccessful. After deleting App World from my phone the appworld site no longer recognizes my device and tells me to "Please connect your device" when I click the 'My World' link.
    When I try to download AppWorld from the Blackberry website, I receive this message:
    "Downloads via a USB connection are not enabled for this product. Please visit our mobile download site using the browser on your BlackBerry® smartphone."
    I've hard rebooted the device repeatedly, hoping that this would help, but it hasn't.
    Any ideas?

  • Error message on App World Upgrade

    Last night I upgraded App World on my Bold9700 and have been getting the following error message since:-
    Uncaught exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
    I cannot get into the App world at all since the upgrade. I have also tried rebooting the phone on several occasions since and that has not cleared it. Any suggestions on how to get this sorted would be gratefully appreciated.

  • Problem with App World 4.0.55

    I have just upgraded App World to version 4.0.55, and now it is not working...
    I can see the icon, but selecting it doesn't appear to do anything.  Holding the BB button shows the App World icon (as an application that is already running), and this is the case even immediately after a reboot.  Selecting the running app just returns me to the home screen.
    I have completely uninstalled / rebooted / reinstalled twice now, with the same result.
    Any suggestions on how I might resolve this? 

    This is a suggestion for bb_kevin to try.
    Action 1:
    Please, start DTM 7.1, connect your phone, wait for the ‘sync all’ message, click on’ Applications’, wait for the ‘apps loading’ to stop, and check if you see a ‘red star’ on the top line and maybe at the bottom a message which says: ‘OSx.0.0…………Update’.
    Also verify (scroll up/dn) in the list that AW 4.0.0.55 is installed (important).
    Action 2:
    If yes, go back to the hone screen of DYM 7.1 and make a full back up of your phone. Disconnect your phone and try 2 more reboots (either pull the battery for a few seconds or press ‘alt key, right shift key, and del key for 3 sec. all simultaneously if you have a keyboard).
    Action 3:
    Is the AW icon now working? If not check for the ‘red star’ again. If it still there you have to make a decision. You can go back to your present or default AW version and wait for a better version to come along or clean/update your current software to get rid off this icon issue via Action 4.
    Action 4:
    If you see on the bottom of the ‘Applications’ window still the ‘Update’ message click the ‘Apply’ button beside it. What will happen? This procedure stores your phone’s setting and PIM and email data and all your apps, then it erases all data, then it reinstalls your current OS software, and then reloads all the above stored data. One has to wait about 30 minutes till one get the ‘update complete’ message and then spend about another 10 minutes or so to follow all the prompts and reboots to get the phone back onto the network. Most of your third party apps will be back; other ones you need to reinstall later.
    Action 5:
    If you decided to ‘update’ your current software, disconnect your phone after you got the ‘update complete’ message and follow the prompts. Since this method reinstalls your current OS it will take about 10 minutes before you get an email from your phone company saying: Your handheld has been registered with the wireless network.
    Wait for this message, because if you start your AW icon to early you will not be able to update your BB ID. I you did you will see a message like: Sorry, the software update server is unavailable. Please, try again. (RIM means, after you are back on your carriers network). Also, make sure your phone's radio is turned on after disconnecting from the PC.
    Summary:
    The above actions worked for my Torch 9800 running currently bundle 3049 and app platform version 6.6.0.246. I also experienced other issues in trying to install AW v.3.1.x.x and v. 4.0.0.x like:
    missing AW icon to launch the app
    Uncaught exception java.lang.Error
    App World requires the latest version of BlackBerry ID.
    Sorry, the software update server is unavailable. Please, try again
    BlackBerry Identity installation failed. Please try again later. (80002)
    If you don’t see a ‘red star’ on the first line of your apps list but are stuck on one of the above listed AW v.55 issues let me know in a response to this thread and I will suggest another way of doing an update avoiding the 'wipe way' of reinstalling the current OS.
    Tip:
    I deleted my PayPal app before I did the ‘Update’. I reinstalled the PayPal app after v.55 was running and had no issues with this app so far.
    I hope this is not too much writing but these issues and errors are in RIM’s court for quite some time and
    this method worked best for my phone. Maybe, for yours too. Good luck.

  • Blackberry App world problem ?? please help me !!!

I asked my sister who have the same mobile & the app world was upgraded easily on her mobile & finally I checked my network & contacted my service provider .... What can do more than that ????????

    Hey ranatarek46,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    To better assist you I have a few questions:
    Is your Blackberry smartphone connected to a BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) ?
    Can you browse other websites?
    Can you use other BlackBerry services such as BBM, Email, Social media applications?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Thanks.

    Hi there,
    Try doing the following:
    1. Go to Options > Device > Application Management and find App World in the list. Highlight it, press the BB Menu button and select Delete.
    2. Reboot your BlackBerry by performing a battery pull.
    3. Redownload App World from http://blackberry.com/appworld.

  • Your Device does not meet System requirements that are needed to support BB App World

    Hello,
    My last Torch died with a JVM. Just got it replaced today and I want to get my Downloaded apps back. After I have restored the device from BlackBerry Desktop, none of my downloaded apps are there. I have a brand new 9860 , running Bundle 7.1.  I launch App World. It tells me to upgrade. When I follow  the screen upgrades, I reach an error message : Notice: Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support BB App World. I have a brand new phone so first question...can I upgrade App World over Wi-FI. or do I have to get a Data Plan from my Telco first ? I have been running my old phone fine with no Data plan but enjoying BBM and Cell use. Not happy.
