Hi house, i need help backing up my blackberry especially my bbm contacts, the last time i changed my phone, i used the blackberry id to restore my datas. Messages, contacts & co were restored but my bbm contacts were not, so i had to re-add my bbm contacts one by one and it was very frustrating.

Pls, am planning on changing my phone, is there a way i can back up my bbm contacts on blackberry server, and also i'll like to change my blackberry username and id..can someone pls help with this. Thanks.

The picture i screengrabbed below show how my blackberry protect displays when am restoring back ups...d contacts does not include bbm.
NB; backin up also on laptop isn't helping either.

make sure u are using the latest bbm or ur bbm version is from 7.1 up it will automatically back up to ur blackberry id. so when u change phone all u have to do is sign in ur bbid and everything will be there.

u can bro. There are 2 ways u can back one is email and the other one is sdcard. Now first of all go BlackBerry world and check if ur BBM has an update, if there is update it. Then go to ur BBM press options, look for backup and restore choose email or sdcard. Me I will suggest email and make sure the email u are using is ur blackberry id that way u won't ever lose ur bbm contacts again unless u delete them ur self
