Hit the link to download OTA
Download Blackberry Messenger 5.0.1.38 OTA
Update: Finished download and installation. Here is a short review from me
- New interface: the overall layout gets updated, it feels more spacious now (I use font size 7) as the row height is taller than before. Conversation style gets updated too, bubbles & stripes with blue and gray alternate colors. View My Profile has been rearranged; barcode is shown in top region. Now all incoming messages in Chat Window have yellow bulb icon indicating new message, grey bulb indicated read message.
- Menu management: contact menu gets clubbed. Contact
gives options to contact the person via PIN, email, call, SMS, MMS. Invite Conference term has been changed to New Multiperson Chat - More things to set in options: press
and choose Options, you can set Contact List Style to 2 Lines or 1 line, option to delete Backup Files
- Separate SMS and BBM: now no message mixing anymore between those two, but if you want to you can set in Options.
- In my Storm, I notice the lag is more if I use Conversation Style: Bubbles or Stripes. I think it is because of the new interface is heavier. So if you still want to use this version, use Conversation Style: No Border to avoid lag.
