Beat me too it.

Yea yea. I'm downloading. And did a backup this time.

Worked on my 8530, 8330, and 9530.

My son is downloading to his 8330 (also after a backup!)

Yea, that BBM notification in my screenshot above is him chatting it up with me.

I think the conversation backgrounds are different colors for what you send and what you receive, but I could be wrong

I can now 'Preview' a picture sent to me from a BBM contact. In version .33 I had to first downoad it, which ticked me off. I am so happy RIM brought that back.

[zerog46]

See and you did not want to upgrade...

[MrKyoo]

She was scurrrrd.

After losing all of my contacts the other day, I was a wee bit paranoid.

If I lost them again, I'd have to rethink adding back at least 2 of my contacts

Noticed app world still lists .33 but the web page has the .55 up for download.

Kind of a pita to install over the existing BBM that comes with OS .421 as it prompts you to overwrite each module instead of the application. (Names don't match exactly)

Didn't even have to restore my contact list or groups, everything came right back as it was after the restart. Looks to be working well so far, but haven't noticed any differences yet...

The messager was fine .RIM needs to work on the facebook app real bad

It works well. Like .52 and .54, .55 seems very stable. What I would like to see is BBM compatible with other platforms

I installed last night and for anyone using version 5 I would say this is a must have update. It reduces the lag that's plagued BBM 5 on every device I've tried it on and while it seems to take up more memory to store the code, when running I see better retention of memory - i.e. less leakage.

Well worth the DL just for the performance improvements.

I installed the BBM 5.0.0.55 today and noticed that I have 1 BBM notification on my home screen. I went into BBM and tried anything to get it off. Nothing works. I have no conversations or anything.
I tried a battery pull and that did nothing.
Anyone have this problem or any suggestions?

Keep looking for a new message, if you have any BBM Groups, look in them for a message or a picture or anything.

Look at the top and bottom of the BBM window for any contacts to accept or system messages.

I only have three BBM contacts and no groups. :(
