Problems with your BBM 5.0

bbm50

So there were so many problems going on with BBM 5.0 for everyone, especially when it was at its BETA version. Photos sent via BBM had to be cropped and saved before it was sent out and BBMs weren’t being delivered immediately. Once the official BBM 5.0 was released photos didn’t need to be cropped and saved but photos needed to be downloaded onto the phone which took longer to transfer than the older BBM, so annoying for the BBM user because we need to see the picture, like NOW. The only thing really “different” about BBM 5.0 is the way it looks, the barcode, how you can register your e-mail and back-up your BBM friends, your default photo, and your emoticons or happy face symbols and emotions.
HUGE problem with BBM 5.0 Status updates which I realized recently is that if you have more than 99 friends, your status updates super late.
My friends on bbm kept saying,
“aww, you’re still sick?”
I responded with, “No, I’m not sick at all.”
He says “But your status says so!”
I thought I updated it a long time ago with “@the gym” or “shopping w my girlies” but BBM 5.0 doesn’t update your status if you have more than 100 friends. Super lame. No matter how much you upgrade your BBM 5.0 version to the latest version and update your software, it does not update. RIM needs to do something about this ASAP, because status updates is how you broadcast to your BBM pals where you are and what you’re doing. Blackberry dependent people would be so stoked if this was fixed. Thanks RIM!
