Step One:

No pictureshere, just download the zip file...remember where it downloaded to we will need to go back there.



Step Two

Open the zip folder and extract all contents to a folder name you can remember. I extracted mine to a folder called bbm.





Step Three

Open Windows Explorer (I'm assuming you know how) and navigate to the folder where you extracted your new messenger files (mine is bbm)





Step Four

Navigate to the 4.7. 0 (or whatever your folder is c:\program files\common files\research in motion\shared\loader files) and move the cod files so that they are in the same folder as your alx file (see above, I just moved the cod file and the english cod file.)



Step Five

Plug in phone and run DM (No pictues here sorry)



Step Six

Select Application Loader





Step Seven

Select add/remove application by pressing the start button.





Step Eight

Select Browse and Navigate to the folder that you made and put the blackberry messenger alx and cods files. (I navigated to my documents and then bbm)







Step Nine

Select the file Blackberry_Messenger alx file. and press open







Step Ten:

After you finish step nine you are nearly home free. The next step is to press the Next Button and DM will install this file and reboot your Blackberry.
