A guy named Chad contacted me today and asked if I knew how to get the newest version of Blackberry Messenger (which, as of the time of this writing is v5.0.0.57) on his Blackberry device. He was having problems finding it because his BB Desktop Manager software would not find the update, he said. After some questions and answers, I found the page linked below on the Blackberry support web site, which allows you to send a link to your BB so you can download and install the software app (assuming you have rights to install apps on your phone, of course).
- You can visit this page in any browser and enter your email address to be sent a link, or…
- you can go to this link with your Blackberry browser and get the software that way, or…
- you can get it through AppWorld (which I know very little about since I am more of an iPhone app guy)
Once installed, you may have to reboot your Blackberry device.
Hopefully that helps someone else!
