Then, installed BBM 5 via OTA and SMS immediately was DOA (haha - just wanted to use another acronym!). Damn.... Once again tried all the "tricks" and nothing would help, so......re-wipe and re-install OS 5. SMS worked....this time installed BBM 5 via DM. Sure enough SMS was broken. Once again, tried all the tricks and SMS would not return.
Next step was to repeat the above steps, but now with the .282 OS installed. Got the same results. No matter what I did on each OS I tried, SMS would stop functioning as soon as BBM 5 was installed on the device.
So, to make a long story short (too late, I know), I did a last wipe of the device and installed .282 and am using the version of BBM that comes with it. Everything works great, including SMS.
I really liked BBM 5 and I look forward to the next leak or official release. Until then though, I'm done with it.
Anyway....that's just my experience. It seems everyone is having very varied results. Good luck everyone.

RobVegas,
I did have similar problem, but My SMS is working, it is just that it was moved to the messages folder.
The solution is quite simple, go to Messages => Options => General Options
and then look under "SMS and Email Inboxes", and make sure the value are changed to "Separate", because mine was "Theme Controlled" so the SMS and the Inboxes were combine.
Hope this helps
