Updated Great tip from one of the commentors, not sure if it works but it’s worth the try after the installation finished, don’t follow the instruction to reboot the device,
Please reboot the handheld manually to keep your existing
bbm contacts.

Sure you’ve heard that yesterday BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 was leaked. This is a huge improvement over the existing Messenger. Blackberry OS leaked it first to my knowledge yesterday afternoon here http://www.blackberryos.com/forums/blackberry-storm-9530/4005-want-new-bbm-your-storm-here.html Then @Omie set all of them up for OTA installation. This guy rocks. So if you feel led throw him some coin b/c he spent pretty much the whole night setting up and troubleshooting these OTA installs. So, then the installation files. ENJOY! Get the links after the jump.Read More
THIS IS BETA SOFTWARE, INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK. I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING LOST. MAKE SURE TO BACK UP YOUR PHONE FIRST. There have been reports of some phones being bricked, I lost my BBM contacts. so install at your own risk.

BBM 5.0 is available for 83xx/81xx running OS4.5.0.131 or later, OS4.6, Tour 4.7.1, Storm OS 4.7, Bold OS4.6 Curve 8900 OS4.6.1 OTA links are on @Omie ’s site as well as linked below. THE 4.7.1 OTA WILL WORK ON 8900/9000 OS 5.0

OTA FILES WERE TAKEN DOWN. I AM WORKING ON GETTING THEM BACK ONLINE. CHECK BACK SOON. DESKTOP MANAGER INSTALLS SHOULD BE WORKING STILL

OTA for 8900 8900bbm5

OTA for OS 4.6 9000bbm5

OTA for OS4.7.1 9630bbm5

OTA for OS4.7 95xxbbm5

OTA for 83xx/81xx/88xx There have been reports of this working on OS versions 4.5.0.81 OR LATER but don’t hold me responsible if it doesn’t work. I don’t think it will work on 8310, with .162 if you have gotten it to work let me know. It will not work on VZW 8330 with .77 DON’T Try it 83xx/81xx/88xx

Here are the desktop manager install links as well.
Storm BBM files
Tour BBM Files
Bold BBM Files
8900 BBM Files
Curve 83xx BBM Files

5.0

5.1.0 BBM Files
IF YOU DOWNLOAD ANY OF THESE AND IT DOESN’T WORK, IT WILL PROBABLY REMOVE YOUR BLACKBERRY MESSENGER ALL TOGETHER. Backup your stuff, it’s beta software, don’t try and install on an 83xx/81xx unless your running .131 or later. Push alt+shift+h to see your OS version 4.5.0.131 or later is what you need. Don’t complain to me if they don’t work. They are working for more people than not. It worked for me on my 8330, I lost my contacts, but it installed and works great!

Let me know if any of them don’t work.
