Blackberry Messanger Ammo Group

[97serpent]

All of you guys that use blackberries with blackberry messenger 5.0 can scan in the barcode below. Its an NES ammo tracker group I created so we can all post stuff on the go.

1. Open Blackberry Messenger (Must be version 5.0)
2. Click scan group barcode
3. Scan the barcode below.

Ah I see. If you have OS version 4.5 or greater you can install BBM (Blackberry Messenger). It allows for people with blackberries to communicate with each other. As long as you have a data plan, you can use it.

I have bbm... I just don't get the scan the barcode thing.. I must sound like a moron..

 

[soloman02]

Hit the blackberry button, find "scan a group barcode" select it, use the camera it opens up to take a pic of the bar code in the first post.

It will automatically add you to the group.

I can't figure it out, maybe i have the wrong OS??

 

[soloman02]

What blackberry model do you have and what OS version is it? Also, you need BBM 5.0 for the scan barcode to work, as well as a camera on your bb.

I have a curve, 8330.. I don't know what my OS is..lol It does have a camera..

 

[soloman02]

If you go to options--->Applications

It should list bbm in there. You need version 5.0.0.xx to have the option to scan a bar code.

if you don't have 5.0, you can point your blackberry browser to www.blackberry.com/blackberrymessenger to download it.

I have version 4.5... I'll upgrade it later.. Thank you..

i've got BBM 4.6 I'm somewhat surprised it hasn't updated. I'll have to look into updating it my self.

Have you guys had any issues with BBM 5.0? It seems hit or miss on the reviews I have read.

I haven't had any issues with it on my new Storm 2 9550, but I haven't used BBM 5.0 much.

Your OS shouldn't matter for BBM...I was running BBM 5.0 before I upgraded to OS 5.0.

If you don't have BlackBerry AppWorld on your BB yet, get it.

Go to: http://www.blackberry.com/appworld from your BB and download AppWorld.

Go through AppWorld and download BlackBerry Messenger 5.0.0.33 (I believe is the version number).

Anyone who's got anything less than a Storm/Tour/Bold shouldn't bother to try and upgrade your OS. Right now, the Storm, Storm2, and Bold 9700 are the only BBs that have an official 5.0 OS right now. The Tour has a few leaked versions, though not all are stable. I've been running the leaked 5.0.0.230 on mine for a while and it's great...Very few quirks.

Probably way too much info for you all, but follow the AppWorld directions to get BBM.

Thanks for the tip. I have had this thing for a year and still don't come close to what can be done with it. I did update the OS before I saw your post. It actually had a couple of good features for my phone 8350i.

 

[dreppucci007]

An official upgrade of your OS isn't a bad thing (typically), but I just didn't want anyone going and upgrading to a leaked OS, especially if you're not sure what you're doing. Not that anyone would go and try to do that, but my point is that it isn't necessary to upgrade the OS to begin with.

Added myself to the group.

Any way to do this without having a blackberry with camera - I have the world edition.
