Just downloaded and installed. Got my keycode a few minutes ago, gonna try it out soon.

 
 
Posted by chiratsu Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Is there a reason why Blackberry messenger not showing up on the list.

 
 
Posted by beri Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

That is because it is only available for a limited amount of people on a first come, first serve basis, you'll have to wait until all previously registered members get their keycodes and if space is available you'll receive yours.

I was just gonna ask that same question. I just joined to try out this new bbm and its not in the list? I have a bold 9650 and listed my slef with that device when I signed up... I wonder if its only for certain devices.

 
 
Posted by DreaM_82 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I cant see the new bb messenger on my screen either? does that mean I am not eligible for it? I have the 9700

 
 
Posted by blackberry1208 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Yep! Not seeing it either, what gives! Bla1ze must have special access us pee-ons aren't privy to! Lol

 
 
Posted by djanark2000 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Somebody that's able to download it please link us!!

It's not listed =(

 
 
Posted by emomike25 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I've been a Beta Zone member for like 6 months and it doesn't show up for me either. I was kinda confused also. I thought it was just me

 
 
Posted by mbar9607 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

it hasnt been listed for sometime now, i been trying to get it since last weeka nd its not on the list of available programs

 
 
Posted by bk5150 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Glad I'm not the only one who isn't seeing it. I was wondering about that after the blackberry shield, or whatever they call it, came out in beta zone. Are they selective as to who they offer these thigs too? If so seems somewhat lame to me as the more feedback you get the better the product can be when finally offered up to the public.

 
 
Posted by cannon83 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

You have to go on the Beta Website and click on Blackberry Messenger 5.0 then once you go to it you will see it states the new version...so I'm downloading now!! Hopefully its good.

 
 
Posted by pccuser Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Sorry guys, I had a question, I download the BBm5.0.1.17, and I got a keycode.
And now I download 5.0.1.32 .
May I use the same keycode from 5.0.1.17 or I need Waiting a new one?

Someone can tell me please!

 
 
Posted by beri Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Same keycode.. Don't lose it!

 
 
Posted by pccuser Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Thank you,my friend

Care to link us to it?!

 
 
Posted by cannon83 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

go to Blackberry Beta Zone and sign in what do you need a link...go to the Blackberry Messenger download and redownload.

 
 
Posted by tfrankson Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I had the prev beta so I just clicked on it go to download and it was the new ver.

 
 
Posted by djanark2000 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I can't finddd ittttt ahhhhhhh

 
 
Posted by Jeh-C Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

BBM is a limited beta program so not everyone will have access to it :(

 
 
Posted by handscreate Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Even if you got a link it wouldn't work for you! The download requires a keycode, specific to your device & PIN. I know patience is fleeting here, but hang tight & hopefully the BB gods bestow the new BBM beta upon you all...

For anyone who is already testing RIM beta apps through RIM Beta Zone, your keycode remains the same for each application, so long as you continue to use the same device. I recently had to witch devices & had to have new keycodes emailed to me (took about a week!)

 
 
Posted by BbM_NazI Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I been looking for almost an hour and cannot find this new beta program for bbm . Will it be listed under eligible programs ?

 
 
Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I can't I agreed to a confidentiality clause. :)

Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

go to Blackberry Beta Zone

Posted by blackberry1208 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Logged in and it's not there. What sucks is there isn't even a search function on that page.

 
 
Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I have it, just use your brain and you'll find it. It is there. CLUE it is not in the screen after you login and see My Programs Eligible Programs etc.

 
 
Posted by Apocrathy Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

It's in limited Beta mode. So only few will get it.
It's not because they don't know where to find it.

 
 
Posted by enz Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

If your a member of Beta Zone, you will find it under my programs. If it isn't there RIM haven't invited you YET!

Yes they stagger the invites and NO it doesn't matter who you are. There are some influential people in the BB world still don't have Facebook.

NO it can't be shared, its keycoded and PIN locked, yes FB had a work around but that works differently to BBM

Why don't you sign up and hope for the best

Sorry to interrupt your post Bla1ze, but it had to be said

 
 
Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

What I can't understand is this: You sign up for the Beta program, and agree to the terms of the Agreement, then you come out and tell the whole world what you are testing and the results including screenshots and the works. Thats not very nice! (Not referring to anyone in this post)

 
 
Posted by enz Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

It's all over twitter !

 
 
Posted by djanark2000 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Haha were so cool guys we know where to find a link to program and won't tell anyone...so cute

 
 
Posted by mafia16 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

In this vercion they fix a lot of bugs and its more faster for those who can't downloaded you have to log in in you beta zone profile and go to programs and it say blackberry messenger and download like the firts time and when. It download put your old activation code

 
 
Posted by juwaack68 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I downloaded it today and while it has some nice new features (especially when sharing pics with other BBM conacts), My Group convos must load every time I click on the conversation. I get Please Wait Loading Chat EVERY stinkin time.

Slightly annoying.

 
 
Posted by RedBank Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Not everyone in the Beta Zone will get to try it...yet

 
 
Posted by johnahue42 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

All the eligible programs in the list have a link in this format:

https://www.blackberry.com/beta/betas/invite/XXX

can someone who can see it just post what invite number it is? That way we can at least try to get it on our phones.

 
 
Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

No

 
 
Posted by cannon83 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

OMG FOR THE LAST TIME...if you go to Blackberry Beta Zone then Click on Blackberry 5.0 and go to Download. If you are eligible it will say the .35 version instead of 5.0. Just dl it like you did the 5.0 and it will prompt you to replace it!!

 
 
Posted by blackberry1208 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

What we're saying is that it does not say BlackBerry 5.0 and then follow with a download link! SCREW IT, I'll wait for it later! Now chill out!

 
 
Posted by BbM_NazI Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I dont understand why people are being so secretive if you know then help ... obviously some us cant view it theres no point in getting pissed off if it was that fucking visible to some of us do you really think we would be asking for assistance .... damn .. its not that serious

not sure if any one else is having this problem but I have no problem signing into beta zone on the computer but when I do it on the phone it keeps telling me its the wrong user name and password- rebooting now to see if that helps

For the last time. Not all beta users are eligible. So step three does not exist. So please change step 3 to FREAKIN CALM DOWN PEOPLE AND WAIT!

 
 
Posted by rrdaley Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I really wonder if RIM should be weeding out some of the trash that seems to be in their Beta test program. Seems to me by their comments and failure to find the app to test would rule them ineligible. I'm just a voice in the wilderness, so who cares.

 
 
Posted by Crashdmmy39 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

For those asking for the link, you can't get it unless you're a registered beta zone member and have accepted the BBM beta program, and for those that give out the link, you'll be booted by RIM. Is having your priviledge revoked worth it?

Just one beta zone member to another...

 
 
Posted by Esra77 Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

I'm trying to register last one month but it doesn't accept any password when I put there.what I am doing wronge guys any clue?Thanks

Can u give me exmp. of password pls?

Posted by renzokuken.tan Friday, Jul 16, 2010 676 days ago

Hi,

It has to use certain criteria for the password to be accepted. Mine look like this: Betazone@rim (It has to has capital letter and special character).

Regards,

Posted by JIVE8900 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

If you are a member of the beta testers and you didn't get the invitation email just go to the list of programs yu testing and select messenger then download it.

 
 
Posted by phreddyl Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

This is getting me so frustrated. I log into my beta account on the computer without an issue. When I try with my phone I keep getting an err or message. I have rebooted phone and still can't do it. Any thoughts?

 
 
Posted by JIVE8900 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

Connect the phone to the pc with the usb data cable, click on the download link(make sure yu using internet explorer) and load BBM from your pc. Its a really simple task. Can't see the reason for all the hassle. Come on guys!!! You can also get help in the beta forums.

 
 
Posted by phreddyl Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

That's so cool. Actually never knew you could do it like that. Thought it had to be thru desktop manager. Thanks.

 
 
Posted by Yudha1981 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

I switch to a new device..
Can someone tell me how to get a new key code for the new device!?

 
 
Posted by a.leah86 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

send an email to betainfo@rim.com with your device and PIN and explain what happened.

I did something similar because it said I was participating but I couldn't for the life of me find a key code in my email inbox. I just emailed them and told them them and what device and PIN I had and they sent me a key code within 48 hours.

 
 
Posted by arcanexvi Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

For those having issues... Try the beta testing forums on the blackberry beta site. Posting here is a breach of your confidentiality agreement... There is a lot of help to be had there. I really don't want them to start nuking our beta privileges again because of leaked info again...

 
 
Posted by phreddyl Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

I Really don't think me asking about a log in problem is violating any confidentiality agreement. Think you are a little over the top. Chill dude

 
 
Posted by sefrudin Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

Just downloaded thru beta zone under my programs,put the code and ready to go and it was much faster.

Posted by jabbs1 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

mind mentioning some reasons why?

 
 
Posted by skyboxer Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

That some things should only be said in the beta zone forum itself. Login problems would be ok to ask here but problems or questions about any particular build should be posted where the devs will see it.

 
 
Posted by molski Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 676 days ago

I think the link to the new Beta BBM is https://www.blackberry.com/beta/betas/invite/520

It only says the Beta program is the already 'full', so you can't download it...

Just downloaded and used previous key code that was sent to me over a month ago. Currently I don't discover anything new but I'm searching.

 
 
Posted by rosecity1980 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

I registered in the beta zone JUST to try the new BBM, I've been registered for a few months now, and every time I hear a report "BBM is in the beta zone for all you beta members", it's never there for me. I have not seen it once.

 
 
Posted by haimez Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

I installed this update out of Beta Zone and it doesn't look like there have been that many changes over 5.0.1.17. I ran through the UI and options only briefly, and I can't even be certain that the changes I noticed weren't there in the previous version. That said, it looks like they added the option to show your contacts music updates or not, and whether or not to share your "Location/Timezone" in the same way you previous showed what music you were listening to.

I haven't yet played around with any multimedia related BBM functions.

 
 
Posted by BonezH2X Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

Really enjoyed 5.0.1.17 but since I started using 5.0.1.32 I like the interface a little bit more and it's quick too. Haven't had any issues or problems yet. So all is good right now!

 
 
Posted by jerzey904 Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

5.0.1.32 got rid of all the dead space in the chat bubbles which was my major gripe... Still looking for more changes.

 
 
Posted by simonrope Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

Posted by alakija Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

If you dont see it probably it wasn't sent to you. Have you emailed support at the beta zone? If it hasn't been sent to you then all you can do is wait.

 
 
Posted by simonrope Saturday, Jul 17, 2010 675 days ago

I've only just signed up today. I downloaded twitter + msn through this fine, bur I just don't see bbm. :(

 
 
Posted by alakija Sunday, Jul 18, 2010 674 days ago

Sorry Mate, it should be in the among the eligible programs but if it isnt there then i guess you cant download it. But no worries though, im sure it will soon be released to the general public... you are not missing much. cheers

Password has to include CAPITAL and lowercase letters. Numbers too
