Nope. It's down currently. Works with 3G as well.

[vimal_vs]

Ok cool. Thanks

Long press and "save link" if you just click it, it would appear as a zip file...it's really an apk

That didn't work. Just got another zip. I just renamed it .apk and it installed. Too bad I'm too late to test it.

Anybody has a link for the OFFICIAL release? Seems those links point to the beta. Nothing in play store either

Official BBM for android app delayed:

No wonder they are failing as a company. Very unprofessional. Will stick to whatsapp

[ninjabilly]

Might as well add myself to the list.

I have not ever kept up with BB, can someone explain to me what is the big deal about BlackBerry Messenger? BB seems to have failed on the market big time and everyone is making a big deal about BBM for other platforms now. Why not a big deal about Whatsapp or whatever Apple uses? Isn't Whatsapp cross-platform and free too? What about Viber and other such free messaging apps?

Well just don't download it. No worries.

I prefer the whole read and delivered rather than the online thing. So I can ignore who I feel like.

The layout of it is just more appealing to me. But that's personal preference.

It also still has a wide user base.

I'd just like having both options on my device and it annoys the eff Out-of me when I can't get something to work

Prior to launching BBM for Android, an unreleased version of the BBM for Android app was posted online. The interest and enthusiasm we have seen already – more than 1.1 million active users in the first 8 hours without even launching the official Android app – is incredible. Consequently, this unreleased version caused issues, which we have attempted to address throughout the day.

Our teams continue to work around the clock to bring BBM to Android and iPhone, but only when it’s ready and we know it will live up to your expectations of BBM. We are pausing the global roll-out of BBM for Android and iPhone. Customers who have already downloaded BBM for iPhone will be able to continue to use BBM. The unreleased Android app will be disabled, and customers who downloaded it should visit http://www.BBM.com to register for updates on official BBM for Android availability.

As soon as we are able, we will begin a staggered country roll-out of BBM for Android and continue the roll-out of BBM for iPhone. Please follow @BBM on Twitter for the latest updates and go to http://www.BBM.com to sign-up for updates about BBM for Android and iPhone. These issues have not impacted BBM service for BlackBerry.

Ummm question...by chance have any of you ppl discovered a error with the note n7100 where its stuck on the boot screen and you can only go into download mode??? Btw for product # it has nothing

[Trini Hookah]

Anyone downgraded from 4.3 to 4.1.2 with any problems? This Supernexus feeling s little to boring for me :/

[squazzo]

I've never gotten any problems downgrading, the only thing is you're left with the /0/ folder which you'll have to delete because of the new file placement in 4.2 and up

whats the best software to run on the samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0?

[maj. tom]

I have run Paranoid Android, AOKP, Team Tsunami AOKP, PAC Rom and Cyanogenmod 10.2.

Ended up sticking with CM10.2 after several of the roms above. I use the latest nightly because they haven't released a stable 10.2 for the P3110. P3113 is the same as P3110 in terms of flashing a rom. It works fine, perfectly, not a single crash or glitch yet. It's butter smooth and you can use whatever theme you like from the Play Store. Also using TWRP recovery, all of which can be found on the XDA page compilation. I am also using PSN_Agni kernel for the Tab 2 7 inch. Amazing battery life with wifi always on.

[Trini Hookah]

Thanks again squazzo.

[Ted_v2]

Looks great.
I think I need to attempt to put on a rom on my tablet

xperia Z da is bess phone they dan.

IS there any noticeable difference between 720p and 1080p on a 5 inch screen to the naked human eye?

I can't see any pixels or faults in my nexus 4 with 720p screen so wondering the purpose of 1080p on these small devices.

[Ted_v2]

Didn't make much of a difference imo.
