Error "Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"

I have a Curve 8300. With OS v4.5.0.81. And I am on a BB Social network plan through my cell providor "Fido".
I mainly use it for Facebook & Twitter and have no problems using either app. However I was prompted for an update for my twitter recently but wasn't near a wifi spot to update. Just decided to update today at home where I do have wifi. However when I go to do the update, it gives me the following error:
"Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"
I have scoured for answers but haven't had much luck. I tried checking for OS updates. I apparently have the most current one that my phone will support. I uninstalled twitter and then tried to reinstall it via the twitter Icon on my phone. Got the same error. Tried reinstalling it through app world, it installed just fine. However it installed the version that I had previously had. So I went to twitter's settings and checked for updates. It prompted for one as I expected it would. And when I tried to get the update. It gave me that error again. I can use twitter as it is, but I don't see why my phone shouldn't be able to get all the updates for various apps. Is it a software compatability issue? Is it a hardware compatability issue? Is there anything I can do to get the update or do I just have a phone that won't take some app updates?

Hi and welcome to the forums!
The 8300 is not listed in the device upgrade table for Blackberry device OS v5.0. The newer versions of apps like Twitter and Facebook require device OS v5.0 to run correctly. Might be time to consider a new device!
Thanks,

Facebook and Twitter for Blackberry..

Is Facebook and Twitter for Blackberry fine? I tried to download it to my BB phone but it says it doesn't support it. Do I have to download a different link? I need help asap.
I love my BB!

I got mine working. If your service provider is globe you should use their service which is BB Social but 300 a month. BB SOCIAL ON send to 8888. You'll get confirmation messages and twitter, facebook and adding email will be no problem.
I love my BB!

Twitter for BlackBerry 10 updated to v10.2.1.2

If you're a big user of Twitter for BlackBerry 10, then you'll be pleased to know that it has been updated. It's not my go to Twitter client but the updates lately have been pretty good and it is slowly becoming as good as it was on BlackBerry OS, at least for me. There is actually a changelog with this update and there are a handful of new features too.
What's new in Twitter for BlackBerry 10?
Lists! Lists are an easy way to keep track of accounts that Tweet about subjects relevant to your interests. You can now view, create, subscribe and edit Twitter lists from your BlackBerry device
Personalized trends surface and recommend accounts and conversations based on interests and locations
See more photos! Scroll through tweeted images in the photo image gallery
Learn more even more about fascinating peopl when you visit profiles. We now showcase other cool accounts to follow based on that person's profile you're viewing
New icon indicates Tweets with video!
DM status in app now syncs across all your devices and Twitter accounts
View recent Tweets while Twitter is minimized
That's a pretty nice addition of features. It certainly makes me want to use T4BB10 for a bit. If you don't see the update yet, try manually checking for updates. Alternatively, you could do a search for Twitter in BlackBerry World, that sometimes let's you see the update.

Twitter for blackberry issue

i'm having a problem with twitter for blackberry application like when i'm using it and tried to load some of my followers tweets page it doesn't load at all and sometimes it loads then I wouldn't be able to view the remaining tweets at some point please why's that happening ?!

Here is what I have tried so far:
-Uninstal/reinstall app
-Pull battery
-Try different profiles (normal, vibe)

Latest version of Twitter for Blackberry doesn't refresh on startup

Older versions of Twitter for blackberry automatically refreshed the timeline on startup of the application. However, the newest version doesn't seem to do that anymore. Is there any way to enable this? If not, is there any way to revert back to an older version of the software?

I'm not sure what you mean... my Twitter for BlackBerry app automatically refreshes on startup. Have you tried simply uninstalling and reinstalling the app and ensuring that all of your settings are set up the way you like them?
If you want to thank someone for their comment, do so by clicking the Thumbs Up icon.

Find friends from the Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones Application

I cannot seem to get this to show up on my FB Page although my wife with a 8330 had no issues and we downloaded and installed same time same way. Anyone have any clue as it should be on the FB Page and I know it is linked

HI,
The link contains not only the setup articles but links to the error conditions and resolutions.
One question, have you upgraded the TOUR or did you load your application data from the previous phone to it.
Check the following. At the home screen, select options, advanced options, applications, check that only one version of
Facebook is loaded, and that it is version 1.6.0.21

Introducing Enhanced Google Mail plug-in for BlackBerry smartphones

Enhanced Google Mail™ plug-in for BlackBerry® smartphones
Product Overview
The Enhanced Google Mail™ plug-in for BlackBerry® smartphones introduces an advanced level of email service integration for BlackBerry smartphones. It supports additional Google Mail™ features that provide BlackBerry® Internet Service subscribers with broader access to their Google Mail accounts while on the go. The Enhanced Google Mail plug-in is optional. Existing and new Google Mail integrations will continue to function without it.
Note: The Enhanced Google Mail plug-in requires BlackBerry® Device Software 4.5 or later and Google Mail integration within the BlackBerry Internet Service. The Google Mail integration must use IMAP, not POP, to function correctly. Google Mail accounts integrated after March 2009 use IMAP. Deleting an existing account and re-integrating it will ensure that the account is using IMAP.
BlackBerry smartphone users with existing integrated Google Mail accounts must re-associate their email accounts to receive the link to download the Enhanced Google Mail plug-in.
Features
Add and remove labels and stars on email messages
Report spam email messages
Perform local and remote searches
Archive email messages
View related email messages as a single conversation (threaded view)
Note: Synchronization happens in one direction, from the BlackBerry smartphone to the Google Mail account. This means that some changes that take place in the webmail UI are not reflected on the BlackBerry smartphone. These include:
Applying labels and stars to email messages in Google Mail after they are retrieved by the BlackBerry Internet Service.
Labels that are renamed in Google Mail are not applied to the corresponding labels on the BlackBerry smartphone. The new label is synchronized to the BlackBerry smartphone, but does not replace the existing label.
Email messages that are marked as read, archived, or spam in Google Mail are not marked as spam on the BlackBerry smartphone.
Labels cannot be created, renamed, or deleted using the BlackBerry smartphone.

I'm having similar show-stopper issues. I should point out that I'm not actually using an @gmail.com address; I'm using a Google Apps account for my own domain name. Perhaps that accounts for some of my issues. I'm using an AT&T Bold with OS 4.6.0.167 (Platform 4.0.0.217), and I have a BES plan to get mail from my employer (the phone and the AT&T account are mine). I did not upgrade from an old Gmail plugin; I installed the Gmail plugin for the first time.
1) Having messages appear in both the main Messages inbox and the Gmail inbox is not a convenience. It would be nice to be able to segregate these, as with the option to keep SMS/MMS messages out of the main inbox with Messages Options > General Options > SMS and Email Inboxes > Separate.
2) I have a lot of Gmail filter rules that apply labels to incoming messages and "skip the inbox." When I receive one of these messages on my Blackberry, I get a new message notification (asterisk) on both my main Messages inbox and my Gmail inbox. The "skip the inbox" messages are visible in the main Messages inbox, but not in the Gmail inbox (unless I Filter on "All Mail" in the Gmail inbox). To get rid of the new message asterisks, I need to open both inboxes.
The whole reason I choose the "skip the inbox" option is that I don't want to see these messages unless I explicitly filter on that label. It's bad enough that I get them in my Messages inbox, but to have Messages behave one way and Gmail another is nutty.
3) I'm not seeing all of my new Google Apps mail on my Blackberry, even when I choose Filter > All Mail from the Gmail inbox. In the standard Gmail client I see everything; but only selected messages appear on the Blackberry. I haven't been able to pin down what the pattern is. At first it seemed that incoming mail had to have a label applied to it by a filter to appear on the Blackberry, because all the messages I have been able to receive on the Blackberry have had a label. I haven't yet seen any unlabeled message. What what makes it tough to pin down is that I have never received a test message I have sent to myself, and I have tried using my work e-mail, Yahoo Mail, Hotmail and AOL Webmail. 0% success rate sending myself a test message (even when a filter applies a label to these messages); 0% success rate receiving mail that Gmail filters don't apply a label to.
I guess the issue could be with Google's IMAP implementation. I haven't yet looked at my inbox with another IMAP client to see how that looks. I'll try that next.
4) On the topic of IMAP: If that's the interface to Gmail, it seems strange that I can't view my whole inbox. I can only view new mail since the date/time I first set up the Blackberry Gmail plugin. That would make sense for POPmail, but not for IMAP should be able to show me my whole inbox.
Google's Blackberry Gmail app (from m.google.com/mail) has none of these issues, but it has other limitations (no push mail; no HMTL in messages), so I'd use Blackberry's plugin if it worked better. For now I expect to abadon after another couple of days of noodling.

RIM Twitter for BlackBerry Internal Twitter server problem error message

I have had this issue previously, it went away and now it's back; and can I remember how I fixed it... no.
I have a Bold 9700 running 5.0.0.680 and Twitter for Blackberry 1.0.1.7
Since updating to 5.0.0.680 I have been unable to login to Twitter via RIM's Twitter application. I receive the error message "Internal Twitter server problem."
I have tried the following to resolve;
Multiple battery pulls - no change
Flash back to 5.0.0.586 - no change
Flash back to 5.0.0.442 - no change
After flashing I have performed a full security wipe of the device to be sure its clean.
I am able to use UberTwitter and other social networking applications without any issues.
My BlackBerry is controlled via my companies BES. The Server version is 5.0.1 and I can confirm that the Value-added application policy is installed and has 'Disable organizer data access for social networking applications' set to No and 'Disable RIM Value-Added Applications' set to No for the policy applied to my device.
I am also one of the Administrators of this server.
What I would like to know is how to solve this issue. A search of the internet revels a number of similar issues, but these where apparently down to an issue with Twitter not the software. As I am able to access Twitter with no issues via other clients and see no issues reported on the status feed from Twitter I have run out of ideas.
I have also fired up a number of the BB simulators on a development machine and have been able to access Twitter via a simulated BlackBerry without an issues; making me think this is either a BES, device, or carrier issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

Hey Mark,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Are you still having trouble connecting to Twitter for BlackBerry?
Since you're on a BES just to do process of elimination, I would suggest performing a reset to factory so that will remove the IT policy. Follow the instructions in this KB article: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB18998
Then test out logging into Twitter, if successful then we know it is it policy related. If you still receive the same error, let me know.

Enhanced Google Mail plug-in for BlackBerry smartphones

I'm pretty happy with enhanced Gmail plug-in for BlackBerry, I use it for my gmail id and I'd like to use it also for my Google Apps id as others have done.
However I can't because the MX records for my Google Apps domain point to Postini servers and not to Google and this configuration, it seems, prevents the BIS servers from determining that the domain is indeed a Google Apps domain.
I would welcome any work around suggestions or ideally a fix from BlackBerry.
Regards,
Warren.

How do I uninstall this plugin?

Facebook for BlackBerry Smartphones app not working!

So, I recently updated the facebook app to v.3.2.0.12 on my BB Curve 8520 and I seem to be having some trouble using it since then. It was working absolutely fine this morning, but now when I open the app, it's taking too long to load the news feed, and is not loading any of my friend's wall, or mine at all. Neither is it opening the chat. It keeps retrying but it never opens!
Any immediate help with this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

First thing... Go to the Facebook for BlackBerry > Options > Logout. Close the app and reopen and log back in.
Second, 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.

Facebook For BlackBerry Smartphones

This is just a general enquirery that maybe only somebody from RIM may be able to answer how come other OS's E.G iPhone and Android have the function to locate the town you're in and add it to a status for example when you put a status on instead of saying Via Blackberry it will say Near/From London England I am currently testing the Beta of Facebook V3 and was very dissapointed to learn that this hasn't been added yet although I am glad you can now tag people in status's now any idea if this is planned for a future update maybe? Thanks Craig

Why is it not included in the app, I don't know. What I do know is that you're asking a forward-thinking question about an app, the kind of question that NEVER gets answered by RIM. I think you'll have to wait it out to see what comes with future updates.
I hope that clears things up for you.
