  • Why can't I open my BlackBerry Messenger?

    I'm having this problem with my BlackBerry. I don't know why I can't open my BlackBerry Messenger. I've tried to plugged out the battery and put it back in but still, I can't open my BlackBerry Messenger. So I did it repeatedly but I can't still open my BlackBerry Messenger. I read all about it on the internet and all they suggested is to back-up the BlackBerry Messenger contacts and upgrade the BlackBerry Messenger. I'd like to do that but how can I back-up my BlackBerry Messenger contacts when I can't even open my BlackBerry Messenger? So I tried downloading the BlackBerry Desktop Software. I connect my phone to it and I clicked on "Back up now". And now it's saved in my documents. But my question is, now that (I think) I've backed up all of my data, can I delete my BlackBerry Messenger and install/upgrade it and still have all my contacts? PLEASE REPLY ASAP.

    With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
    1) Register HRTKB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless networkPlease wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app2) Delete and Resend Service BooksKB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphoneIf you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletionKB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet ServicePlease wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.3) RebootWith power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support...only they can look at their network to determine why it's not properly communicating with your device.
    Good luck!

  • Blackberry messenger problems messaging, (Curve 8520 sorry forgot to include first time) PHOTO'S AND VIDEO OF PROBLEM INCLUDED NOW!

    Hello,
    I am having a problem with Blackberry messenger on my handset where the text box at the bottom of the screen goes blank where you type and I can't see the text  I have written. And orange customer services are near enough useless and have told me to ask here about this problem.
    Also sometimes the cursor moves and no text is written while typing.
    I have un-installed the application and re-installed it with no help and performed about 10 hand held wipes.
    Please can someone give me the solution to this problem before I take a hammer to this phone.
    Thank you

    Do a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion.
    1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
    2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."

  • BlackBerry Messenger version 7.0.1.23 Fault

    I have a BlackBerry 9360 (3G, Wi-Fi), 7.1 bundle 1717 (v7.1.0.569, Platform 9.6.0.86), BlackBerry Messenger version 7.0.1.23
    The team originally had the version of BlackBerry OS 6 operating system, for months to upgrade to the latest available for the team that is the Blackberry OS 7.1.
    Apparently the problem started when upgrading BlackBerry Messenger to the latest version (7.0.1.23), I installed it through the BlackBerry App World for my team.
    The team has about 6 months of use working perfectly, until recently that within BlackBerry Messenger application does not update the profile picture. I tried everything to fix it, between this I:
    1. Off and removed the battery long enough, the problem is solved partly because after the smart phone turns on the changing profile picture (but only sometimes), and when it does, it only once since before a second consecutive update the problem recurs, have to repeat the procedure.
    2. I deleted and reinstalled the application without any success.
    3. Reset the entire smart phone and reinstalled all applications again, without success.
    4. I've used all sorts of different connections (including 3G, 2G, Wifi) and in all alike the same problem.
    5. registered the BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network, and also sent the service books through the application of e-mail settings on your smartphone. (Without success)
    I would like to help me find a solution without resorting to absurd solutions like:
    1. delete all contacts and add them one by one again, since I have 300 contacts! and that's not humanly possible, also a risk that after adding back the problem recurring.
    2. get the battery every time you want to change my profile picture, (I do not buy a phone to get the battery every time you change a simple photo)
    3. nor reset the phone, update or delete the application because as I said I already did and did not solve the problem.
    otherwise I can not back up my contacts and I have the latest version of MSN BB and this does not bring this option, since all contact data is automatically saved in the cloud of my ID.
    *** At first I thought it was just a glitch in the profile picture, but then I realized that after pulling off the battery did not keep him to publishing the names of my contacts, and the contacts reappeared I had removed, ie there is a problem with the transmission of data from my device to my cloud data of my ID, ie these are not synchronized properly and changes made by me (as the profile picture and editing contacts) not saved, strangely I have no problem with sending messages from my contacts in BlackBerry Messenger, I can normally chat with them, nor do I have a problem with any other application or with the transmission and receipt of data from the device. ***
    Aja?, Now tell me, I do?

    Hi Fanfan514
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    If you're having problem with recent update , you can try reinstalling it again cleanly , but first  On your Homescreen Go to Options > Device Application Management > Locate and delete BlackBerry Messenger from there.
    KB10040  :  How to view or remove installed application on a blackberry smartphone
    After deleting perform a battery pull restart by removing the Battery while is device is POWERED ON , wait a min. then re-insert it back . let your device takes a long reboot , finally from your BlackBerry Browser browse to  www.blackberry.com/bbm and download  the most recent version available for your device .After reinstalling see if that helps 
    Please Note : 
    If you're having BBM7 then your BBM Contacts are integrated with your BlackBerry ID , after installing when you login with your BlackBerry ID your Contacts will be restored back , but if you're having any previous persion then first do a local backup , you can backup in your Media card, refer to this KB for further  help:

  • 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. 
    - If my response has helped you, please click "Options" beside my post and mark it as solved. Clicking the "thumbs up" icon near the bottom of my response would also be appreciated.

  • 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
