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.

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 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
Software release: 10.1.0.273
OS Version: 10.1.0.1720

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 account not associated with Blackberry ID email address

BBM was operating just fine until yesterday afternoon. I began receiving "BBM setup" prompt. The Blackberry ID is not being recognized which then throws an "email address not vaild" prompt. Then there is a "Temporary Server" error.
I have edited and adjusted my Blackberry ID as well as resetting the password. These changes seem to make it to the device itself, as indicated in the Settings/Blackberry ID field.
IF my contacts BBM me, I do see the entry in HUB (first line only). IF i try to reply, the BBM setup screen launches again - only to fail on the email address associated with the BB ID. All other BB services seem to be working fine.
It is disappointing to have issues like this with flagship software on a brand new device.
Any ideas on a fix for this?

I did not lose my contacts but my carrier support could not confirm prior to executing the above steps.
I believe the reason your carrier is handing off to Blackberry on this is because the Blackberry ID is managed by Blackberry, not the carrier (I am not 100% on this). As such, they can't authenticate the BBID. That can be handled directly by the user here: http://ca.blackberry.com/bbid.html. Permission issues are always a pain.
IF BBM won't behave following the solution that worked for me, I would call your carrier one more time and ask them to escalate the service tag to Blackberry. Without the service tag, its tough to get action. This allows the carrier to hand you off and creates the support trail needed for effective resolution. Push to get the service tag.
In my experience on this, there was enough "grey area" for all support techs involved that Blackberry would be well suited to increase the knowledge base/training/support to provide a smoother resolution. When support tells the user that the main messaging platform, for the top end device, won't function and "there is nothing we can do about it", I believe the user has not been serviced appropriately.

Heeellp pleeease "bbm group" not receiving messages i posssttt ...

okk a couple friends and i have a group set on bbm... we've had this for over a year.. about 3 days ago everyone in the group just stop seing my messages or picture post... i did a batt pull, i even went to the measures of backing up my bbm deleting it off my blackberry tour .. Reinstalling.. and still nothing no one can see what i post ,but i could see what everyone else post... any helllppp pleeeaseeee ...

Remove yourself from the group a few hours and have anothe member add you back to that group.
Give it an hour for everything in that group to sync back to your device. The complete member list, pictures, etc., can take a while.

BB Z10 - Call Log not functional anymore

I no longer have a list of dialed, received or missed calls on my BB Z10. No matter what I try, the call log/list will simply not come back,. Did any one experience this problem?

This might be a solution
Overview
When making a phone call from the BlackBerry smartphone, the call log does not show that you have made the call. Also any new incoming calls are not logged and previous calls are unable to be deleted.
Back to top
Cause
The Phone Call Logs database is corrupted.
Back to top
Resolution
To repair the Phone Call Logs database, please complete the following steps:
Note: All previous phone call logs will be deleted from the BlackBerry smartphone. It is recommended that you perform a backup of your BlackBerry smartphone before continuing. Please see KB18556.
Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager on your computer.
Make sure the BlackBerry smartphone is connected to the computer.
Click on Backup and Restore.
Click on the Advanced button.
On the right hand side under Device Databases select Phone Call Logs.

Bbm groups on z10, remember list filter settings

I use BBM groups to manage a shared grocery list. I want to leave the filter to "incomplete" and grouped by "category". But every time I open the list it defaults to "all" and group by "none".
Really frustrating. Please resolve so it remembers those setting like os7 did.

From what I understand, this issue has not been escalated to BlackBerry support or marketing or programmers, I've been asking a few senior members to take this initiative, so perhaps you can please !!
As other BB members continue to mention throughout these forums, the "Groups" field or ("Categories" in Outlook) has been included in Pre OS10 BlackBerrys since as far back as I can remember. Please tell me that somebody at BlackBerry HQ has been made aware of the importance for this business feature !!?? Not only is it missing, there's actually a bug...whenever I access or edit a contact from my Z10, and I have 1200 contacts, it actually pulls it out from it's respective "Category" in my MS Outlook and recategorises is it as "None". Definitely not cool nor acceptable as this creates even more work, not less.
Suggest you keek posting, poking, suggesting until you to get the attention of someone at BB that can make this wrong a right !!

Bbm group alert icon not working

Hi everybody Since couple days I don't receive any BBM group message alert icon on homepage of my blackberry Pearl. As I am new on blackberry I don't know how to solve it. I've searched the options but couldn't solve it, what elSe can I do? Thanks everyone in advance

Hi Adrian,
Actually, the query I have post was a simplification of the real one.
The real one is the following, and there I think it is not possible to rewrite it without the group by>
SELECT T1.ItemCode , SUM(T1.OpenQty) , SUM(T2.OnHand) , SUM(T1.OpenQty)- SUM(T2.OnHand)
FROM RDR1 T1 inner JOIN OITW T2 on T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode
WHERE T2.WhsCode = '01'
GROUP BY T1.ItemCode
HAVING SUM(T1.OpenQty)- SUM(T2.OnHand) > 0
Anyway, thank you very much for your idea.

Z10 Keyboard N does not function

My Z10 arrived today. Right out of the box the 'n' key will not function. All of the other keys seem to function OK. Did the OS update but still the n or N will not register!

The Z10 only works in landscape when you access a message from the hub. That's normal.
Mark the location of the N key when in portrait mode. Then test that location in other apps or functions aside from the keyboard. We want to know if it's the keyboard program or the touchscreen itself.

Help with BBM Groups

Hello all,
My question pertains to BBM groups which isn't specific to either BlackBerry 10 nor BlackBerry 7 and earlier, and I was not sure which one forum location would be appropriate for this question, so I opted to post it to the Downloaded Software section in both the BlackBerry 10 and BlackBerry 7 and earlier spaces. My appologies if this was not "the right way to do it".
My question is one that I also posted on CrackBerry.com forums but after some time it seems I may stumped the community over there with this one.
Here is what I wrote over there:
"I recently created two BBM Groups and posted them here on CrackBerry with minor fuss. Yay for me. In each forum post I included a QR Code / Bar code of each BBM Group so as to make them easier to join. Yay for me again.
What I realised thereafter was that though this makes joining easy for anyone reading the posts from a screen other than their BlackBerrys, it does NOT make it easy for someone actually reading the thread from their BlackBerry and thinking to themselves "Oh hey, I want to join that group". At least, not that I can tell. I don't think it's possible to scan a QR code on your BlackBerry screen from the same BlackBerry, right? That's my assumption. If someone knows otherwise, please let me know, that would solve my issue.
SO, if I am right in my assumption and one cannot scan a QR / Bar code from one's own BlackBerry when said code appears on the BlackBerry's own screen, I am looking for another way to make it easy for someone reading the post to just "tap or click here" to join the group, to make as easy for someone who would be scanning the QR / Bar code from another source.
I tried getting the text URL for the group from the code and pasting it into a thread, but when it comes up in the CrackBerry app on the BlackBerry, the link is not clickable / tappable. I then tried adding the CrackBerry post editor tool's "Link" too to make the URL text an actual URL, though the only effect that had was that the URL appears clickable / tappable in the BlackBerry's CrackBerry app, but tapping / clicking on it has no effect. After making this change I tried to view the same thread post in my browser both on computer and on the Z10. When I click it DOES react but on the Z10 browser I just get a message "Unable to open bbg:<yadda yadda>".
So I've shared a lot of detail but the point I am really focused on is "is there a way for BlackBerry users to be able to join my BBM Group, on their own, as easily as if they had scanned the bar code, when all they have access to is the phone itself, and no outside media from which to scan the code"?
I am trying to avoid things like "Send me your PIN" and such because that just creates so many more steps and acts as a barrier to entry. Similarly, I don't see myself telling the reader "Just take this bar code you see here, and arrange to print or display it somewhere other than on your BlackBerry screen and then scan it".
Any input on this would be most appreciated!"
Essentially, I'd like to be able to post something that a BlackBerry user can look at on their BlackBerry, and tap / click on it, and boom they're done (i.e. they are at the same place they would be if they had instead just scanned the QR code).

I think there is a case for it. With any luck someone from BlackBerry will see the suggestion and will pass it along.

No photo preview in BBM Group??

When a photo is sent to the BBM group, it is not showing up within the dialogue. I can only see the photo by backing out and going to the "Updates". On my Torch the pictures would show up within the dialogue. One of the group members with a Z10 says he sees received pictures within the group dialogue. Any assistance with this issue on my Z10 would be greatly appreciated.

Still trying to figure this out. Thought the new update might help but alas it did not. Anyone have an answer.
Thanks!

BBM GROUP COMMENTS

My comments on my BBM Group in some chat rooms are not posted sequentially. I have ensured date and time are accurate, yet no change. e.g posted comment shows 2016

shows 2016? what is the 2016?
There are times, I have seen, that some comments maybe delayed in BBM Groups due to BBM server delays, your own mobile connection(s) slowdowns, etc. Since BBM Groups sync between devices, it's hard to pinpoint the exact reason.
On your Z10, what is the signal indicator at the top right... 2G, 3G, 4G, etc?

Duplicate BBM Group Calaendar Entries in BB10 Claendar

In the BB10 calendar app I now have 3 duplicate calendars listed for each of my BBM Groups. If I add an entry to the BBM group calendar in BBM it shows up 3 times in the BB10 calendar. There doesn't seem to be any way to delete the extra calendars from the calendar settings. All I can do is uncheck some of the duplicates in the manage calendars settings but this doesn't seem to do much. Anyone know how to delete the extra calendars?

Exactly the same issue with both my Z10 and Q10 - multiple calendars for the same group - each with a different color. Also when I switch from the Q10 to the Z10 the calendar does not show the appointments from the Q10
