If you're a BlackBerry Beta Zone member, a new version of BBM is now available. This update brings us to version 6.2.0.33 and includes a number of fixes. No fancy updates this time around, but an update is an update, right?
Fixes include:
- Missing BBM icon on OS 5.0
- Issues scrolling up through older messages on OS 6.0
- Issue selecting all the text by scrolling up/down in the inline display name and personal message fields
- Scrolling quickly in the inline edit view allowed the focus to move out onto your avatar
- Pressing the Enter key while the focus is on your avatar initiated the inline edit view
- In the inline display name or personal message field, smileys were highlighted when added via the "Add Smiley" menu option
- Unable to scroll in certain directions within the inline display name and personal message field
- No "Save" menu option or prompt dialog when the inline display name or personal message field only contains smileys
- No red splat on the BBM icon after deleting a group icon from the Home Screen and receiving a group notification
