How these reptiles find their way into the most unexpected places still baffles me.
Reminds me of an experience I had some months back.
My brother packed his car and traveled for few weeks, when he came back, we just decided to go and have some fun that evening. We were at a busy junction when a car rammed into us from the rear, fuming, my brother and I came down from the car to access the level of the damge. The man that rammed into us and a handful of other motorists also came over to plead with us to let everything go but what happened next took everybody by surprise; a very looooong grey snake just jumped out from underneath the car and was trying to escape for dear life Omo come see race o  
When everybody came back, nobody even remembered about the dented car, we were just laughing and discussing about the snake.
My brother and I still make a joke of that incidence to this day 

Kusville: Am avin ish wit my bbm,i cant invite & eachtym i cliq 'send' it doesnt go,bbm emotions doesnt open & wen i clik contacts,it goes off...wot myt b d prob

BBM for Android is currently ridden with bugs. I believe they will release a fix very soon.

emrino: Jst installed it n i'm chattn alrdy...So all d stress is jst to get it up n running n all ur worries r over Lol, tnx for d encouragement.

You welcome.

emrino: How long does it usually take to get this email of theirs?? couple of hours? a day? a week?? Just wanna know so i worry less on waiting or checking incessantly, thank you.
NB: So without wifi one cannot finish installation?? Been balling with installation over three days, it kept saying wifi network ish, only for me to connect via wifi and truly it askd for email and then put me on waiting line, na wa o. Does it mean the BBM will only work via wifi, or it's only for the purpose of initial installation?

Just be patient, there's no definite time frame for you to get to the front row.
You can install without wifi.

There was so much hype in and outside the market over the release of Samsung galaxy S4 device this year, not because the phone was close to being one of the best or because it was just another smart phone; the hype was necessary, after all it was a new phone. Both those that can and cannot afford it were so much anticipated to hear the news of the release that they never cared much if there can/ was an alternative to buying something similar to that phone.

No doubts, Samsung is a brand almost everyone will love to associate with, because of their long time existence and the trust they have built in us; but when taken for granted, trust can be misplaced. Experience and existence wise, Tecno is nowhere near Samsung but that is no determinant for a good and affordable product. I know a good brand when I see one and I know a better brand when I see one also irrespective of their duration in the market.

Apart from the price advantage Tecno Phantom A2 has over its counterpart, it is very similar in function, structure, design and so on. It is as if Samsung galaxy S4 is a prototype of Tecno Phantom A2. I have reviewed the features of both phones (if interested, you should too) and I came to a conclusion that it is a waste of money buying a Samsung galaxy S4 when a Tecno Phantom A2 is available with almost 95% the same features at a far cheaper price; and it seems Samsung is taking us for granted by hyping the price of their products so much.

It is as if we are being exploited here in Africa, this is the 21st century, smart phones are not what we think they used to be; they are just phones. Many will chase after this device and will later blame the government for their poor decision making skills. When it comes to things like this, an average Nigerian is quick to make judgment over the cheaper one terming it as fake without proper enquiry/researches.

You get to save over 60,000 Naira worth of cash if you purchase the Tecno device instead. The reason behind the demand of a particular good is best known to the buyer; your reason should be realistic though. With a Tecno Phantom A2 on the shelf, Samsung galaxy S4 is not worth that much even if it was made in space. Besides, you don’t need an economist to tell you it is economical to get a Tecno Phantom over a Samsung galaxy S4; if Tecno can make it affordable, Samsung can make it affordable.[/s] *No Beefs*

Op bro, yes I agree there's no beef but how much were you paid to write that thing up there^^^?

Apart from a meditated attempt to hoodwink the gullible minds, I don't know of any other reason a seemingly educated person can post such an uninformed wirte up.
I'm quite satisfied with the koboko other NLders wiped your asss

[quote author=kel_Emi]Please I'm confuse, I want to download BBM, and I'm using Tecno M3 but each time I click on install on this site

charles424: Thanks op for ur unmeasurable contributions,can you tell me what type of Techno adroid can work perfectly on dis and cheap one?thanks

You are welcome bro.
I'm not abreast of Tecno models and price range. Any Tecno phone running Android OS 4.0 and above is ok.

haibe: what is the meaning of this?

anyone that wants to download can do that in this link below.

Nice one bro.
Let no one fall victim o

please if you sent me pm, sorry because I can't access gmail, Facebook and youtube where I am now. My VPN aint working. You can contact me on whatsapp though.

sunky644: Please help! I am unable to register at the www.bbm.com. Each time I click on the link "I have a Samsung android phone " the response I get is "problem reading from server".
Can someone please tell me what the problem is and how do I solve it? My phone is Samsung Galaxy S1 (Vibrant T959) with android OS 2.1. Thanks, waiting for meaningful response from gurus in the house.......

You can only install on devices running OS 4.0 and above.

tomakint: Thanks @Op, you did a good job!

My pleasure bros.

monex: my scenario is different. I want to have the contacts on both devices (my existing blackberry and the new BBM on my galaxy note . i created a seperate blackberry ID on the Note 8. How do I transfer/invite contacts on the existing blackberry to the new BBM on Note 8

Sorry man, you can't have it both ways.
BBID only allows one instance of it to be used on a device at a time. You can either choose to transfer your contacts to your Note, or you just invite new contacts.
Cheers.

stephinnoyewole: I've been ping with d bbm successfully,
Bt after formatting my phone, d bbm refused to complete its registration.
After clicking I've got d mail, it will load a while and returned back to d same place, I will click d 'I've got d mail' again, yet it will returned me back there again.

Kindly help me about wat to do.

All the info you needed is just on that pic you uploaded. Just wait and check you mail always. They will mail you when it is your turn.

Chidimba: Hello there,

Its saying we are holding up a spot for u in line. What does that mean and can u please help me out?
It will be much appreciated.

Thanks

there's nothing wrong with that, because of the number of people rushing to download BBM on their devices, they are rationing it so that their servers won't crash. Always check your mail as they will send you a mail when it gets to your turn. Cheers.

Goldenheart: Can you imagine... BBM is not supported on Techno phantom pad

Android devices with screen greater than 7" aren't supported, but of course there's a way around it. Just search and download 'MarketHelper' on google( you can't get it from playstore. Open the app, change your device to maybe Samsung S3, close the app and open your playstore, you will notice that it will detect your device as S3, if it doesn't then restart your Tab. Go ahed and install BBM for Android.

Ensure your device is running Android OS 4.0 and above.

kadman: Nice one OP, I forgot the email address and password I used to register for BBM. Any help with this? Thanks

Unfortunately bro, I don't think there's much I can do. Assuming you still remember the email address, at least you can do password recovery.

Jeezyy: when i go to play store, should i jst type ustv?, or is there something more, cuz it's nt forthcoming

Just search for UStv

Yippsy: Please how do i download bbm on iphone also. Tnks

Its on appstore

buoye1: B4 I port,abeg ll d normal BIS work with the android phone??

Unless its Airtel BIS.
BIS from other network providers will not work, but other data packages or wifi will work.

haibe: Do you agree that bb is nothing without bbm?

Bro  is still something without BBM o.
Apart from iOS, BBOS is about second most safe OS.
I still keep my BlackBerry phone around for sending and reading some sensitive mails on the go.
BBM is the safest IM around.

Op bro...
Nice one. I actually laughed so hard 

justi4jesu: This is stale news, previously bbm contacts could only be restored using blackberry desktop software but its now very easy with the unique Blackberry ID, once you get the bbm downloaded on your Android, log in your unique BBID and all your contacts plus recent chats automatically comes into your new pin.

Ok

aanyasougo: how abt dis error message 'product those not exist in this store (4002) error#'. cant download on galaxy pocket

Which version of Android OS are you running?

Brimmie: OK..

Pls, how do i Move my 2go Friends to BBM!? Do i have to buy Tecno Jelly Rice for all of them!? I Need Answers.. No Bashing!!

Tenk!

Its easy bro...
Step1: Just place your device on a flat and smooth surface( prefarably on tiles or marble) and make sure the screen is facing up.
Step2: Get a hammer( you know Monday hammer? Good)
Step3: Raise your hammer and with a great force, hit it hard on your phone.

There bro, is your 2go contacts transfered to BBM. Cheers

Pweedylipsmoi: Nice one @op....i wanna download bbm on an android, aw do i go about it?

There are many ways to go about it, if you are the patient typw, I'd advice you go to bbm.com and register, a download link will be sent to you when it gets to your turn to download. They are rationing the downloads in order to save their server from an imminent overload.
If you can't wait, follow the link the poster above me posted.
Cheers.

alotofgrace: who made bbm king where whatsapp is? remember bbm is only on bb....whatsapp is on all phones that are smart.....(maybe xcluding bb sha)

Bro, even die-hard BBM critics knows this.
Why do you think BBM became the number free app on playstore just few hours after it was released?

ichommy: Op, Thanks for the info, my challenge is that I can't logout my BBM.

Log out your BBM? You don't have to. Just download on your Android and log in with your BBID. You will be automatically logged out on your BlackBerry phone.

bishopoliver: Ok..i did that yesterday and it worked just fine.However, i wanted to go back to my blackberry fone as i still have a subsisting BIS plan and it wasnt possible.How do i delete my Blackberry ID?

Lol
How about deleting the BBM you installed on your Android?
Or, you can just log into your BlackBerry device with your BBID. They will log you out of BBM on Android as you can Oly use your BBID on one device at a time.
Cheers

Ola17: Thanks and welcome back.
I'm still waiting for the thread you promised us on Android security o.

Thanks man.
I will write on that by weekend

BBM is available for Android devices with screen size <= 7.0" and running OS 4.0 and above.

To install
BBM on tablets and other unsupported devices, Holla.

NB: your contributions are highly anticipated.

Shout out to Faithclin, Physise and Octavo

Every BlackBerry user has a unique BlackBerry Identity(BBID) which is linked to the email address you used to register for that service.

To have your old contacts on the new BBM for Android, download and install BBM on your device and log in with your previous BBID, that is it.... lol, yes it is as easy as that!

Note that your P̸I̸N̸ needle will change, but your contacts won't even notice it as your new pin will be updated on their contacts automatically

Finally, the much awaited king of IM(BBM) has been made available on two OS platforms apart from BlackBerry OS.

This post is targeted at former BlackBerry users who will like to move their BBM contacts to the BBM running on Android, and also current BlackBerry users who will like to port to Android OS now that BBM is available on that platform but are torn between the devil and the deep blue sea on what will become of their contacts following such great move.

Worry no more as NG has brought to you an easy and seamless way to move your contacts to the new BBM for Android.
