Backup & Restore Contacts in BBM 7 Now Done Through BlackBerry ID

Posted by: stiphbami in NaijaVibe.Net Dec 11, 2012

With the newly announced BBM 7 with BBM Voice Chat, you may be wondering, how do I backup my contacts? Where is the backup/restore feature that was in BBM version 6 and below? Well everything is now automatically backed up as soon as you login with your BlackBerry ID. For those of you wondering how will your contacts be restored when you get your BlackBerry 10 devices? Well as stated earlier BlackBerry ID will be used for both backing up and restoring! If you need help just drop a comment below

  Do make sure your new blackberry has bbm7 installed before logging in. I hope this helps

  After upgrading, login with your blackberry ID and restoring will be done automatically

  Once u login ur bb id on the one with bbm 7, u should get ur contacts up, but I'll advice u to first back up on the one with bbm 6
