Settings to enable blackberry messenger in ireland

I have an unlocked Blackberry Curve 8320 from Canada and am moving to Dublin and need to go with an Irish mobile phone company. To be able to use Blackberry Messenger in Ireland with an Irish company, I was told I need to change the settings to Irish settings. How do I do this?

If the device is already unlocked then all you need is a sim card with a BlackBerry data plan on it.  No other modifications are necessary.

  • 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:

  • New Blackberry Messenger

    I don't have internet but i do have blackberry messenger (I do get email though).  Is it possible for me to get the new bbm?

    !!! STOP !!! - DONT INSTALL IT. The software is rubbish and you will regret doing it.
    Here is a list of my complaints about the new BBM5.0
    The new BB msgr 5.0 is a load of rubbish, although it has good intentions.
    Shame the developers at RIM clearly didnt test the new features.
    1. Sending of pictures/images no longer works, PERIOD! It quite happily sits at 0% until it expires. Have tried a number of workarounds, like changing memory and save location, TCPIP settings, all to no avail!
    2. Although I can't even send/receive an image, they have gotten rid of the simple and quick message send, where the images is sent at a lower resolution. GREAT FEATURE and want it back! Obviously no use if point 1 doesn't work!!!! Also - bear in mind that this will adversely affect your data plans if you have any limitations!
    3. Whats with all the expiry on sending of data??? We can't all access our phones every minute of the day. Some of us have day jobs. STOP EXPIRING OUR MESSAGES!!!!
    4. Messages are delayed or not sent! FREQUENTLY! Friends are not getting messages sent almost 24 hours ago, and then on some occasions they're sent twice or thrice!!
    5. Profile images are not displayed and all workarounds given on RIMs website do NOT work! Don't release a workaround unless it works (and has been tested!)
    Next time RIM release a software let's hope they test it first. Can't wait to see all the 'features' that OS5.0 will bring us...

  • 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!!!!

    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.

  • Blackberry Messenger history

    I know you need a court order to get a print out of text messages but can you get one for BBMs as well? How far back does the history go for texts and/or BBMs in the history that is obtained by the court order? Is it the entire length of the contract?

    Verizon Wireless text message content is retained an average of three to five days, but never more than ten days (240 hours) from the date/time the message is delivered. After that, the message content is overwritten by our message center server and cannot be retrieved. Due to system limitations, only terminating content may be available. Additionally, system outages, upgrades and other unforeseen events may result in Verizon Wireless not capturing content.

  • BlackBerry Messenger 6.0.0.125 released!

    From:

    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.

    Can anyone out there please help me.  I have two invitations to join Blackberry Messenger that tells me where to go and download the software.  When I try to download the 4.0 and 4.1 latest software, I get the error message that my phone is not able to do so.
    I also tried to download via the Internet and Iget the same error message, can anyone help as I am in love with my smartphone and my wife is jealous that I give the phone more attention than she ever got.
    Also can I type mails or send SMS through the Roxio desktop Interface?  I do that easily with my Nokia PC Suite but it seems impossible with my BlackBerry.
    Please help.
    ibk 

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    There is no text option in Roxio media manager, it's sole function is to manage your media between PC and BB.
    Do you have a data services Package with your carrier, as well as a text package?
    Please let me know!
    There is no group I know of for a Blackberry widows club....but somebody ought to start one, my wife would be the first to join

  • Blackberry messenger 5.0.0.33 - options to send pics or file or voice note is not available

    I updated the blackberry messenger from the pre-loaded version 4.7.1 to the latest version of 5.0.0.33.  I was able to send pictures, voice note, and file during a chat session by clicking the trackball to bring up the menu and click "send voice note" or "send picture".  This option is no longer there in the 5.0.0.33 even though the user manual indicate this function is there.
    Anyone has the same problem?  Where can I download the previous version (4.7.1 for tour) and how to re-install the previous version of the blackberry messenger?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    You have not updated to the current BBM version...you are on an old version. The current version is 5.0.0.57...
    Good luck!

    hello,
    please read the following article from the public knowledge base:
    KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after buying a previously owned BlackBerry smartphone
    The previous owner of the device has linked his device to his carrier. In the article, in step 2 of the "seller" part he is supposed to have released the PIN of the device, so that you can link that PIN to your own carrier.
    You need to contact the previous owner and ask them to do step 2.

  • 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.

  • Where Can I Find The "Set Alert" Feature in Blackberry Messenger 5.0

    Hello,
    I just upgraded my Blackberry Messenger from version 4.5 to 5.0.0.57 on my Curve 8310.  However, in BB Messenger 5.0, I cannot figure out how to turn on the "set alert" feature that is available in BB Messenger 4.5  The "set alert" features allows you to know when an instant message has been read by the person you sent it to.  This is an invaluable feature for me (and I believe for many other), hence I cannot believe BlackBerry removed this feature in BB Messenger 5.0.
    Any help regarding this topic is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    Honestly, I've never seen a setting for that. But, even with no such setting, I see the receipts just fine in all 1:1 conversations. Group conversations, however, don't show receipts -- and I don't recall any prior version showing such for groups.
    Good luck!
