Default Please help! Lost my BBM

Please Login to Remove!

I friend of mine forwarded the link to upgrade my BBM to 5.0.1.38

After installing the thing and it told me (successful install) I was shocked that the whole BBM application is gone and nowhere to found


Please help. How do I get it back?

Have you tried a reboot? Sometimes the apps won't show up until then.

If you did that, try reinstalling it again.

Hope that helps

I rebooted more than 4 times... Nothing

I reinstalled the BBM using the same link...Nothing

I even restored my BB to a previous backup file... Nothing

Maybe its just hidden itself somewhere. What happens when someone tries to send you a message?

Why don't you re-download from AppWorld?

Yes, maybe it's hidden in one of your folders...

It was hidden. Because when i reinstall the bbm application, it asked me if i wanted to replace the same version. Anyway.... I managed to delete the BBM entirely and re download it and installed it from scratch. I retrieved all my contacts from my back up.

Thanks you guys
