If someone on these carriers can get it to work then we all can get it to work. Follow jibi's instructions:

OTA is http://www.blackberry.com/aim but trying it on AT&T gives you a message that "Your Provider does not allow access to AIM".


I was able to download it last month from here but it did not work since AT&T did not provide the service book for it. But then someone posted the service books for AIM and I was able to add those through DM. It worked fine. Now I have changed BBs and without that link working, is there anyway to get the actual program? Since the service books can be added manually, I just need to get the program. .cod file?

I have a 7520 and it works great. It's very similar if not exact to BB Messenger.

Any way someone can post a backup of the application here?

One way to get the file off is to use the "switch device wizard" which will put a copy of all of the OTA ALX/COD files you've downloaded in a temp folder... go into the wizard, get past the part where it backs up your device, then look for a folder named with your PIN.

Go here from your BB.

It wont allow you to download it if your carrier does not support it.

Okay, one issue; the service books from jibi's post seem to be old. Here is the info contained within:

Quote:
Record Type: Active
Name: Wireless Village - AIM
UID: EVALAOL
CID: SMP
User ID: -1
DSID: (Blank)
Gateway IP: //206.51.26.192:19791;19790/blackberry.net|GPAK
Description: RIM SMP
Can someone upload the .ipd file with just the new AIM service book from Sprint/Nextel?

I agree that I'd like to try RIM's AIM app on AT&T. If anyone has any ideas how to get it to work, I'd love to know!

Alright - who has the solution for AIM with Verizon? I used the Service Book from BG from another thread, I downloaded the AIM ACX/COD files - everything installs great, but all I get is AOL saying it's connecting. So close but so faaaaaaaaaaar................

And that's what everyone used to say 2-3 years ago about VeriChat, too. And yet, when I tried it on my Nextel , it could NEVER log me into AIM, not once! It worked fine for Yahoo IM, but it was never able to log me into AIM, there was some problem with it, a problem that was still there through several new versions of the software that I also tried, so I uninstalled it and gave up on it. Luckily I never went beyond the free trial on VeriChat, so at least it didn't cost me anything to find out that it was worthless.

I later d/led and installed the official RIM YIM client, first on my Nextel BB, and then later on my current T-Mo 8700g. It works with no problem, which tells me that the RIM AIM client should, as well.

So, anyone get it working with T-Mobile yet?

Did you try JiveTalk? It does have a 30 day trial. I never tried Verichat so I can't speak for that one.
