Leaked: BlackBerry Messenger 5.0.0.54
By
Bla1ze on 11 Dec 2009 10:05 pm
Well, that didn't take long. Just the other day BlackBerry Messenger 5.0.0.52 was leaked to the interwebs and now we have .53 floating around and most importantly .54 is now up for OTA download. Word of caution of course it's NOT official by any means so if you decide to download make sure you at least make a back up first. Also note, only 4.7 + and higher plus the servers are likely being crushed with requests so if you are not able to download it the first time, look in the comments for a mirror of the file or just sit tight till the rush passes. (Thanks for the pic, @Sloth26)

jens.bberry Dec 11, 2009 at 10:23 pm
Is this JUST for OS 4.7+?
katiepea Dec 11, 2009 at 10:28 pm
where does it say anything about 4.7?
jens.bberry Dec 11, 2009 at 10:29 pm
On their site: "Description BBM 5.0.0.54 For 4.7+ OS (This includes 5.0)"
Rodstar87 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:32 pm
Downloaded fine for me also. Don't really notice any differences tho. But hey... An upgrade is an upgrade.
Edit: can any1 confirm if the add caption was in the .52 build when sending files.
Haze11368 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:43 pm
Yea, it was
gtownie Dec 11, 2009 at 10:32 pm
Can I download the .jad to my computer and then email it as an attachment to my blackberry email address, then download it on my blackberry? I'm afraid to try before asking if that works...
Rodstar87 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:34 pm
Why don't you just download it to your blackberry from the native browser? it took a little while but It worked fine for me.
gtownie Dec 11, 2009 at 10:59 pm
I finally got it downloaded through my browser. It failed a few times and that's why I was wondering...
Lie Dec 11, 2009 at 10:36 pm
When the hell are they going to officially release 5.0 for the older models?
jens.bberry Dec 11, 2009 at 10:39 pm
IF this is a BBM leak for people using OS's 4.7+, then perhaps this should be noted in the OP. Just to keep people who are using OS's lower than 4.7 from downloading and wondering why it's not working. Just sayin!
jeniferlynne Dec 11, 2009 at 10:41 pm
dl took a little longer then expected, but leak seems to look the same as the last at first glance.
duck383 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:42 pm
this .54 is alot smooooother than the .52 really liking the new pic preview in this version (.52 also). did the ota and only had to reset a few options in my groups and lost no contacts >nice
visualpurple Dec 11, 2009 at 10:42 pm
download fails... 907 invalid COD
mrspock2002 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:47 pm
I get that too on my Storm2
DriftDevil Dec 11, 2009 at 10:48 pm
if u using my link, it should work, i dl'ed myself n it worked...
if u downloaded from previous leak, was the vendor a custom?
maybe that's y? my ota has the legit vendor name...
visualpurple Dec 11, 2009 at 10:51 pm
yup, tried all the links. Same thing happened when BBM 5.0 first leaked. Couldn't download it until it was officially available from RIM.
itszmelyy Dec 11, 2009 at 10:46 pm
I was able to download it smoothly amd quickly. Now i can't find it on my phone ! help please?
ColdplayStorm89 Dec 12, 2009 at 3:14 am
...this exact same thing happened to me. when the phone resetted after the download, it was nowhere to be found on my phone. anywhere. so i just powered the phone all the way off, pulled the battery then put it back in, phone resetted again and still nothing. guess i'll just wait for the official release...
Floont Dec 12, 2009 at 1:45 pm
Perfect download.
Perfect reboot.
Checked my app version and it was 5.0.0.41!
Looked for the icon and it was nowhere to be found. And I checked every folder. Twice.
Uninstalled it and reloaded from app world back to 5.0.0.33, and it restored my contacts perfectly.
I guess I'll wait for another leak.
mccx33 Dec 11, 2009 at 10:53 pm
I guess I'll give this a whirl.. Since I'm bored lol
shaundiesel Dec 11, 2009 at 10:56 pm
Storm 2 users...Forget it! I've tried 11 times, 3 different links...Nope!
Timebomb606 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:02 pm
some of the links are getting hammered. You guys need to learn to be patient and WAIT for stuff to calm down before going off the deep end about leaks.
Drift.....OTA download worked great for me.
shaundiesel Dec 11, 2009 at 11:09 pm
I understand, not a newb....Fact is, there are plenty of users saying they had no issues, whereas I'm yet to hear a successful storm 2 story. Just a thought, not flaming.
thisisjnn#cb Dec 11, 2009 at 11:06 pm
I'm having the same issue as itszmelyy. Download went just fine, but now I cannot find the icon on the device anywhere..... How do I find now?...
VDub2174 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:06 pm
Now I have to download this!!
theonecid Dec 11, 2009 at 11:08 pm
we need the cod files for people who are downloading via WIFI and cant get it to work please. (907 error)
* EDIT *
nvm got it : http://bit.ly/BBM54zip

rbracht Dec 11, 2009 at 11:11 pm
huge btw, 4.3MB ota
SueyChoy Dec 11, 2009 at 11:17 pm
thats weird my ota is 2.4mb how is yours 4.3?
theonecid Dec 11, 2009 at 11:15 pm

SueyChoy Dec 11, 2009 at 11:21 pm
9530 Storm 5.0.0.328/405 Hybrid worked perfectly.
mrspock2002 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:23 pm
The original link was 4.3MB way too big and would install badly. This one is best:
http://bit.ly/6N5dTp
MikeSuede Dec 12, 2009 at 2:26 am
Thanks MrSpock, this works fine. Now I have figure out what was upgraded.
evorc Dec 11, 2009 at 11:29 pm
The main improvement that I loved is picture preview before accepting is way bigger than .52 and transfer seems a bit faster. Good job RIM keep it coming!
Tiguere Dec 11, 2009 at 11:36 pm
downloaded the new messenger on my storm 2 kept asking me to confim all throughout the download.
LoSt180 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:19 am
Second Storm2 success, I used the original link in the article.
Roweazie Dec 11, 2009 at 11:41 pm
I didn't notice the "find" option before.
DUKDIKz Dec 11, 2009 at 11:43 pm
i download it finee...
djanark2000 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:46 pm
any more mirrors?
Tapeworm Dec 11, 2009 at 11:47 pm
After installing and rebooting I got the following:
Uncaught exception: net_rim_bb_phone_app (58) is not responding; process terminated
I clicked the OK button below it.
Azothyran Dec 12, 2009 at 6:36 am
So what you're basically saying is that your phone application crashed? Wow. Now that's something xD.
geisha1 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:48 pm
I was prompt to download it. I didn't request it. It took me a couple of trys and it works. I like the screen layout better and the remote backup too. I have a tour and only had it a week so getting use to these things.
nighthawk34691 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:50 pm
Downloaded and installed and all seems to be working good so far.. Will report findings.
spiltmilk00 Dec 11, 2009 at 11:54 pm
I downloaded it just fine but now i cant find it....
Anyone??????
nighthawk34691 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:02 am
Check in ur instant messages folder...should be in there. If not, check app folder.
tphannon4953 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:00 am
Keep getting error 907 invalid cod unable to import zip file.
Help Please
nighthawk34691 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:00 am
On my 9630 Tour--Had to do a reboot to be able to start sending msgs.. Layout seems the same, no major changes that I can see. Receiving pics...now you have the option of preview, accept, or cancel, and when you preview the pic is waaaaaay too small to see and when u zoom in, it blurs out.. over all seems stable.. we'll let you know of anymore findings.
thisisjnn#cb Dec 12, 2009 at 12:03 am
just like spiltmilk00 & itszmelyy - downloaded just fine to my VZW Tour 9630. Bu-ut - - now can't find it anywhere on the device, though it is listed in the applications list..... Anyone?... Anyone?...
stoneworrior#CB Dec 12, 2009 at 12:07 am
Downloaded really fast and installed no problems. Works great so far just tested it out with my son and wife.
gchahinian Dec 12, 2009 at 12:07 am
how come every time i download this bbm disappears from my phone! its in my apps list but not on my home screen or any folders...
thisisjnn#cb Dec 12, 2009 at 12:07 am
...apps, downloads or instant messaging folders..... ARGH
djanark2000 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:09 am
same here my man try a battery pull
nighthawk34691 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:30 am
For the ones having problems finding the icon...most likely you will have to completely un-install BBM and re-install it, and make sure that you are on your STOCK theme, then you should get ur icon back. I had the same problem when trying to install the .33 version. Couldnt find the icon in any of my folders and I did a re-install then a re-boot and it was back on my homescreen...hope this helps...if not, I dont know what else it could be.
stoneworrior#CB Dec 12, 2009 at 12:13 am
If you are running a non stock theme try going back to your stock OS theme then look in instant messaging. I bet you'll find it there :-)
gchahinian Dec 12, 2009 at 12:16 am
confirmed....this does NOT hold true lol
tphannon4953 Dec 12, 2009 at 12:20 am
WTF Why can't I download it same error message 907 cod unable to import zip file this is really pissing me off
shaundiesel Dec 12, 2009 at 12:52 am
Yep. Getting the same annoying message, have been for over an hour!
jrdnlc Dec 12, 2009 at 12:55 am
no problems here with my 9700. Ask if i wanted to replace the current BBM version, clicked yes and BOOLA !!
kpageisgreat Dec 12, 2009 at 1:02 am
I just downloaded it and so far so good. I didnt have any problems with the last leak either. I noticed that my name at the top is larger but I dont know for sure if it was from the update or the theme that I just installed.
thisisjnn#cb Dec 12, 2009 at 1:10 am
thanks for the attempt to help nighthawk34691. Tried all that you suggested & still nothing..... good thing I have a replacement (fix trackball issue - finally) Tour to pick up @ FedEx tomorrow!
Maynard9823 Dec 12, 2009 at 1:26 am
No major changes but it seems like a good build. It downloaded quick on my Storm 2.
JohnnyLovesBlackBerry Dec 12, 2009 at 1:42 am
Could some one please private message me and let me know if the contest is still going on or has some one already won the blackberry 9700?
silverbizack Dec 12, 2009 at 11:44 am
the contest is over on dec 24 but why would u randomly ask that here on a bbm blog. come on now, all u have to do is go back a couple of blog pages and look for yourself, ur just as bad as the ppl that keep posting "pick me" for that contest on ever blog CB puts up, now i have had my rant, didn't mean anything bad by it but why can ppl just think about what there doin and do a lil research of their on
Nate N Dec 12, 2009 at 1:57 am
OK --- Tour I have and man! this is taking me 2 hours now and I can't find my BBM ICON its gone! Ive tried everything stated prior to this message and NO LUCK! Can anyone work on a fix?
Thank you my crack friends! :)
mingus007 Dec 12, 2009 at 1:58 am
Running off a Tour using OS 5.0.0.230. Whereas the pre- ".52" version of BBM worked fine for me, that last beta actually killed my radio! No SMS, no BBM, no internet connection... Nothing.
More specifically, trying to transfer a file did this. Plain BBM was fine. Just seemed to "lock everything up" in terms of communicating w/the outside world. Not sure if anyone else had this issue or not, but whether it was sending or receiving the request to move a file (ie- image), lock-up. Not even calls were coming! Took a battery pull/reboot to get things right.
Took me a night to figure this out since the next morning, I noticed BerryWeather had failed to update...which it never did at 1.5.x... (I got no love from 2.x!)
Rebooted, and boom. Emails came pouring in, BW updated and all the things that make me a BB addict went rushing into the digital veins.
I am happy to report that this version (x.54) DOES work as advertised. My download was slow, but the wait was worth it!
Nate N Dec 12, 2009 at 2:01 am
What link did you use? can you provide me with some help? i do not have OS 5.0.0.230. But have the 4.7.
Thank you.

Nate N Dec 12, 2009 at 3:00 am
Link didnt work!
skitsgko Dec 12, 2009 at 3:27 am
i got the link working. hey - and to all trying to download the file with your wifi settings on, turn them OFF!! i did, and like magic it worked for me.
forumpersona999 Dec 12, 2009 at 3:39 am
Installed OTA on my Bold 9700 - seems to work well so far.
I got plenty of bandwidth, I could make a mirror but how does one actually mirror OTA downloads ?
An OTA consists of many .cod files. Is there a .tgz or .zip of this BBM version that contains the file structure for an OTA ?
forumpersona999 Dec 12, 2009 at 4:06 am
10Mbit Singapore-based mirror.
OTA multi-language: http://120.50.41.55/BBM5/BBM.jad
OTA English Only: http://120.50.41.55/BBM5/BBMen.jad
The .zip file containing it all: http://120.50.41.55/BBM5.zip
jus_slim#cb Dec 12, 2009 at 4:59 am
After downloading to my tour, it doesn't show up anywhere on the homescreen
skyboxer Dec 12, 2009 at 5:50 am
Tour on .230 here. Just had it replace my .52 build. Other than 7 "replace this with this?" Prompts had no problems. I don't use the bbm icon but I searched for it and its found in the instant messaging folder.
Azothyran Dec 12, 2009 at 6:38 am
Installed it via WiFi and didn't bother deleting the old version first. Just had to accept each module, not a big deal. 2.4MB, and I did not have any problems. Running lyricidal's latest Storm2 Hybrid.
scott4nola Dec 12, 2009 at 6:56 am
I tried every link on here and every one of them started and then gave me the option to replace my previous version .33 and I said yes and then it said 907 invalid cod. What is the problem? I am getting real annoyed with my blackberry and tired of stuff not working all the time.
paco87 Dec 12, 2009 at 7:19 am
For those who can't find the BBM after installation, check your hidden icons. It worked for me.
StormChaser77 Dec 12, 2009 at 7:22 am
same... over and over again.. 907 error.
Tried with WiFi. Tried just EDGE (8900). One link, I was able to download, but it just saved it to my SD card. Would rather it self install rather than use something like BBSAK...
Ideas? Can anyone shed some light on this?
Todd M Dec 12, 2009 at 7:39 am
... this is for 4.7+ My wife's 8330 Curve was getting that error until I realized that since this leak is for 4.7 and higher...
Not sure if that's the issue for some of you but wanted to bring that up just in case.
adood84 Dec 12, 2009 at 7:40 am
I'm getting "Invalid COD 907 cannot import zip file error " at the 75% mark same thing with .52, tried WiFi and EDGE. I'm running OS 5.0.411 on Bold 9000
volks Dec 12, 2009 at 8:24 am
To all bb users that try to download this, please use link from "deathmau5", I followed exactlly the link and works fine for my onyx. (it tooks about 5 minutes to download &reboot) thanks again.

I keep getting the freakin 907 error code. tried every link here. Somebody plz. help!!! plz
automan69 Dec 12, 2009 at 9:09 am
Installing went well. First thing I notice is when ending chat you know have the option (yes or No).
Second thing is, in bbm options there is an 2 extra options (Auto Accept Voice Notes)and (Delete back up files).
If I find more I will post more.
automan69 Dec 12, 2009 at 9:35 am
Update: I have compared my Storm1 with Storm2.
In Storm1 in menu options there is Back up/ Restore and Delete. They done away with this in the new bbm and put it in bbm options instead. Like this as less to scroll in menu options.
Update. In the storm1 at the bottom of screen you have 5 icons. I could never get the Contact Profile icon to work, it would scroll down my contacts. This is now fixed on the leaked bbm.
J-Nificent Dec 12, 2009 at 9:37 am
Will not download. Tried several times with no luck. Oh well. I'll just wait for the official release.
Pilot Prop Dec 12, 2009 at 9:39 am
none of the links are working for me... i keep getting this message that says "invalid COD"
jayhammy Dec 12, 2009 at 9:51 am
This fixes the picture send/receive issue. yay!
napleskahuna Dec 12, 2009 at 9:56 am
I downloaded this OTA on wifi with 8900 T-Mobile. After around 5-6 "yes/no" are you sure you want to download, it downloaded completely. Looks like RIM is trying to solve the picture downloading problem on BB Messenger most of us are having when someone sends you a picture. I was able to receive photo sent to me after a 2 minute delay. I have been having problems downloading photos sent to me via BB messenger. I see the photo in small form and when I click "accept" the status bar shows up,but never actually downloads picture. This is a problem RIM is currently working on as I am not the only one with this problem. The whole messenger message send and delivered confirmation is inconsistent. Some messages take well up to 2-3 minutes to deliver and some take immediate delivery confirmation. Texting now and they are being sent fast and on time as they should, however, 5-10 minutes from now, we may be back to delayed delivery. i will continue to use and monitor the rest of the day, however I may downgrade back to 5.0.0.52
eBud Dec 12, 2009 at 10:26 am
Dls 80% then fails...not gonna happen.

shaundiesel Dec 12, 2009 at 10:55 am
For those of us not able to d/l this, keep getting 907 error....Are you running a hybrid OS? I am running OOAK's latest on my 9550. I can't think of any other reason why I get about 80% finish, then "download failed" pops up. I've been trying for a day now!
chib32394 Dec 12, 2009 at 11:24 am
so i downloaded it to my computer but wat do i do to get it on my blackberry
cbresciani Dec 12, 2009 at 11:30 am
Just downloaded to my Storm 2 with no problems at all. Haven't really noticed anything new yet, we'll see how it goes!
Xopher Dec 12, 2009 at 11:35 am
Since the message went out that the leaked 5.0.0.8 is going to stop working on 12/15, do you think an official release might be tied in with that?
jfoofoo Dec 12, 2009 at 12:29 pm
I see 105 posts up and mostly is about link to download, unable to download, and I have no problem download. My question is what did they improve? is it worth to upgrade not just for the sake of upgrade.
Would wonderful if someone can share some info regarding what has actually changed in this new leaked version.
Thank you,
dcorx Dec 12, 2009 at 12:34 pm

So I've been trying to install for a very long time and kept getting the '907' error. After each attempt I was sure to clear the browser cache.
My browser was set to hotspot browser by default, as I was trying to do this via wifi. I then switched the browser to 'internet browser' and tried over 3g and it worked!!
For those having trouble try this out. Hope this helps!

if you can't find the icon it may be a hidden icon so just unhide it by selecting show all using the menu key.
I personally had no problems with OTA download and everything works great
BuckleyBay Dec 12, 2009 at 1:49 pm
Still nothing shows I looked in every folder and nothing. I am running v4.7.1.57 on the Tour 9630.

Downloaded it a while ago and so far, everything is working great. :) And yeah, what @StormOG said. Anyone know what's new or w/e with this one?
cbresciani Dec 12, 2009 at 6:14 pm
I've had it on my Storm 2 for several hours now, everything seems to be working fine but I'm not sure what's changed? So for everyone who is still trying to download it, if you can't get it to download, it doesn't seem like your missing much!
Jleeblanch Dec 12, 2009 at 3:47 pm
I just downloaded and installed!! It was kind of annoying that i had to keep hitting 'YES' every time it was replacing the modules...had to do it like 7 or 8 times i think! But other than that, everything installed successfully!!
I have BB Curve 8900 running OS 5.0.0.411
swdoro Dec 12, 2009 at 4:54 pm

Can this be downloaded on the Pearl?

Downloaded the application but no icon in the IM folder. Is this for 0S 5.0? I am running OS 4.7. I may have to wait for the official release.

Sorry, I just cannot say good things about this leaked version! I have downloaded this version and used for a full day and it is just glitchy as all hell and I am down grading to the previous version! Shame on the person who posted this garbage and Crackberry for letting this post through without testing. Come on guys, have some dignity and stop posting garbage, try it yourselves before you launch garbage on us!Fuk you for telling us to test and report back on our findings we will just start up our own blog then, fair enough?

It has to be the WiFi... I turned it off like a previous posts had stated... the download does go slow but I was able to complete it finally..

It wouldn't download. Then it downloaded, and I couldn't find it. Oh well. I erased it and went back down to .33

OK GUYS,
So, I downloaded 5.0.0.54. On my Sprint Tour(which is slow as hell) I hate the Tour! gonna take it to the store today.
Anyway.. I downloaded the leaked BBM and it never appeared anywhere on my phone. I checked in every folder, hidden files, etc. I had to come back to 5.0.0.33. I had to uninstall the .54 and reinstall .33.
Alas, when I checked the DOWNLOADS folder, .33 was right there and it displayed: BlackBerry Messenger(Archived)?? What does that mean? WHERE ARE THE ARCHIVES? THIS WAS CERTAINLY NEVER THERE WHEN I HAD .54
Anyway, I had to then go to App world and download .33 again, since it was Archived...
Does anyone know about this?
Thanks,
JE

dude, not only is app world still not ready for prime time but neither is the 'offical' BBM that RIM pushed out to us a couple of months ago. let's face it there are aome really frrrrreaky things goin on - and it's not only a compatibility issue! 4.6 (which we faithfully rocked forover) was stable sh!t. i get messages all the time, the red blinker is on but the message will come in 5 mins later. anything 5.oh is anything but an INSTANT messenger.
Dear RIM: the crackberry nation begs you to please work on a stable product, k?
piece (i'm on an 8900 on Rogers, offish o/s 4.6.1.250 with mess 5.0.0.033 in case y'alls intrested) from Canada, eh

I have the 9630 Tour. I just upgraded the new OS that was released from RIM. Will this work in my blackberry? I don't want it to crash the phone.

I downloaded it and installed it and nothing. I lost bbm totally. How do I get it

I had .52 then .54 and the only difference I noticed is the bigger file size of the .54 leak. I moved back to .52. If there are any improvements that I didn't see please let me know.

I got it to download. But I had the same issues of others where I couldn't find it anywhere. Default theme didn't show it. Show all was marked. So I downgraded to .33. No big change anyways!
