Z10 BBM Failure

I have had my Z10 since it was first lanunched last winter. A week ago the BBM failed. I can see BBMs come into my hub. To the to the sender it appears as though the message has been delivered but not read. When I try to open the message I am told I need to set up BBM. Even though it provides my correct BB ID in one step, it then says the email is invalid in the next step. If I attempt to open BBM via the app instead of the the message in my hub the sreen says the server is temporarily out of service. It has been a week. I have tried to alter my BB ID information. I have done numerous battery pulls. I have even wiped my Z10 back to factory settings and resynced it. I have the most up to date software. Still no luck.
Recommendations?

  • Z10 BBM Group Chat Disappearing

    Hi, 
    I have a z10 its the first time i joined a group and everytime i close the chat window and then reopen the window i do not see previous messages. I have all settings switched to save chat history, i've even changed the setting within groups to save chat history for a month. When i open windows for my individual chats the history comes up. 
    Does BB10 allow you to see the history of the groups conversation evertime you open the window just like individual chats? if so can you tell me how to do it.
    Model: STL100-3

    Hello cashami,
    Thank you for your question regarding BBM group chat history.
    You need to tap on the group in BBM and select chats to see your last months worth of conversation within the group. Are you unable to see this? Does the Chats box display as blank?

  • BlackBerry Z10 BBM picture not displaying

    I have a BlackBerry Z10 and once I change my BBM picture my contacts do not see the updated picture, but only my status updates. What should i do?

    It can take a while for pictures to percolate through the servers apparently.

  • Z10 BBM Vedio Chat does not work

    I can not get my BBM Vedio Chat to work, nor can i enter a new contact in the BBM Vedio Chat contact list, they all go to the BBM Contact list
    For each contact i have entered all fields of information, but when I BBM them there is NO option for BBM vedio Chat
    Some  one pleae help me?

    Are you trying to video chat with a fellow bbmer that has either a z10 or a playbook?
    If so click on the contact in BBM, and there should be a green icon on the top right of the screen if they are available for chat.
    Also, in the contacts app if a contact has an associated bbid email in it, a button for video chat should appear there as well.

    Your mobile provider must still now it is a BlackBerry being activated on the network. You need to call them.
    Since you've not listed that in your forum profile here, I don't know who your provider is.
    **Let me add, I can stand to be corrected. I have asked a couple of friends on this and they too are still somewhat confused. I am asking around for clarification. But, I know I have been told that while a generic data plan will work, the provider does need to know it is a BlackBerry on the network.

  • Z10 BBM contacts wiped out

    BBM on my z10 randomly wiped all of my contacts and history approximately 12 hours ago. I am still connected to my BB ID and everything is working, so I'm unsure what can be done to restore my history/contacts. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? This is the 2nd major BBM issue I've had since switching to the new device. On February 22nd, I also experienced the forced setup and "temporary server issue" which wouldnt let me restore the service for almost 10 hours. Disappointing delivery on the new device so far.

    Have you tried removing the battery to reboot the device? I've seen that a couple of times but a battery pull has always fixed it.

  • Blackberry Z10 "Call Failure"

    Hi Can anyone help?  My Blackberry Z10 has been working fine for a few months.  This week I can not make calls nor can I take calls.  When I dial out the phone displays "Call Failure" Contact your service provider.  I have been in contact with Virgin and they say nothing is wrong with the account or sim.  I have the sim in another blackberry phone and everything works just fine.  I have done the security wipe, still the same fault.  Does anyone have any ideas what I can do.  I purchased the phone online "New" from a private seller.

    I would get the sim replaced. I have seen similar issues with sim cards. I had a problem with my data plan on my sim. Wouldn't work on my Z10 but worked in a 9810. One think it was a problem with the device. Turned out that a replacement sim solved the problem.
    Get a new sim.

  • Z10 BBM setup is hanging.

    Hi I have just bought a Z10 to replace my 9860. I tried transferring the contents using the media card method and all seemed to have gone well until I tried to start BBM. The setup screen is hanging on "transferring BBM data". I can't use BBM. I have tried the carrier help line and after trying many things it seems my only option is to return the device for a refund and try something else :-(

  • Error message and bbm failure.

    Blackberry Curve 8520, OS5, carrier Orange.
    Three problems:
    1.  When I turn on the phone I get an error message: "You are attemptin g to open a secure connection but the senders certificate is not trusted" Options are "Continue", "Close connection", View certificate" and Trust certificate".  I have tried all of these, and the window then immediately opens again, and keeps doing the same thing up to about 15 times.  It then has a breather before starting the same thing all over again.
    2.  On the front screen, at the top, between the volume sign and the time, is an icon which appeared a couple of weeks ago.  It is a small orange disk, with a 1 on the left side of it.  I have been unable to identify what it is or whereit came from, and cannot get rid of it.  Dont know if this is connected to the above.
    3. Contacted Orange who forwarded an email instructing me how to back-up onto my PC, Wipe the phone, and then restore.  I lost three apps:  Viber, Blackberry Messenger, and Whatsapp.  Whatsapp and Viber are now both re-installed but problems with BBM.  Installed it, but no Icon showing, and despite help from Orange have been unable to get it up.  Orange recommendation: uninstall and then re-install and it should be okay.  Unable to uninstall via phone, so connected to Blackberry Manager on Computer and uninstalled that way.  Then attempted to re-install via phone, but BBM is shown  under Blackberry World Apps as "Installed"  But it is not.
    Finally, if I look in "Downloads"  I see MySpace..  Not downloaded by me, and I have no idea where that came from either.

    1.  Not sure.  Make sure you have mobile network enabled and a strong signal, then remove.the battery while the power is on, wait 30 seconds, then put the battery back in and test.  If that doesn't fix it, resend service books and test.   (I assume you have a BlackBerry data plan.)
    2.  Don't know for sure, but it is an alert of some sort. Maybe an app, maybe browser push, could be any number.of things.   Post a screen shot and see od someone recognizes it.   Other wise check apps, inbox, etc until you find detailed it. 
    3.Use the Desktop Software and add/remove programs and install BBM again that way.   It may have been hidden before,  in a folder, or hidden in a folder.    Find it and lauch it.   Follow any instructions to update BlackBerry ID or BBM.
    4. Carriers bundle download links with the device software.   That is probably what you see, and I doubt that is the only one there.  Just hide it and forget about it.  If you delete it then it will just get pushed to you again.

  • BB Z10 BBM Group updates and notifications not showing up in Hub?

    BBM Group updates and notifications not showing up in Hub? The notifications are turned ON in Group settings. And all BBM notifications are enable in the Hub, still nothing shows up. Picture comments, addition, status updates simply dont show up. My device is on 10.0.10.58. 
    Any workaround? 

    vijaymalhan, in your Hub settings > Hub Management, do you have BBM set to ON?

  • Z10 BBM Group not functioning

    I'm hoping that this gets fixed when 10.1 comes out, but in the meantime...
    There are two other family members with blackberries, so we figured we'd set up a family bbm group to communicate easier. Except, I can't join the group we made. We've tried both getting my phone to join an existing group (which I never seem to recieve the invite for) and creating a new group (where the phone tells me I've reached my maximum amount of bbm groups...but I have no groups, at all)
    BBM seems to be buggy in general for me, ranging from being extremely slow when being accessed directly from the app (not from the hub), and alerting to an update when there is nothing listed in the 'update' tab. It has also stretched the screen in the hub when I tried switching to landscape (though it fixed itself within a couple seconds).
    Can anyone give me a suggestion on what to do? Please let me know if I'm missing crucial information.
    Solved!

    I am sure 10.1 upgrade can fix it. While waiting for it, I have solved my issue by joining the BBM Channel Beta Program! That upgrades my BBM client and it works smoothly since then.

  • Z10 BBM cannot sycn with other BB

    I have a BB group and in it there are about 5 z10 users and 10 other BB made. The group did not face any problem of users cannot see their own messages or incorrect time show in the thread. About 3 weeks ago, one new user with BB Bold added in, however, his time was set wrongly. We've rectified it. But all z10 users still complained that after they've BB their info, they cannot view the messages on their unit. Some received current information but time stated in the info was 5hours later eg: message was BB at 8.30pm and message time stated was 1.30pm.
    Please help as we required this to be rectified ASAP. Thank you!

    Hey xex1833,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question. There are many different possibilities as there are many users with different devices affected in the group. I suggest as a first step, to delete the BlackBerry Group and recreate. Now that the time issue with the one user has been rectified, the new group should not encounter this issue.
    Let me know if you have any additional questions,
    Cheers,
    -WW

  • Z10 BBM copying messages

    Hi there,
    So I'm getting a tad frustrated with this BBM copying issue. As I select the text, choose copy as its the only option, it then reads message copied...my where to?? where is it copied to?? I seem to have no clipboard so where can I find it? It does not give me the option to choose say, sd card or device or other, so I'm lost as to where it went and how to retrieve it!?!?!
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks....

    It is copied to the clipboard.
    Go anywhere you can enter text (email, sms, bbm, DocsToGo) and touch and hold a second in the area want to insert it, and then from the popup right tool > Paste.
