I tried searching but didn't find anything about this. I have installed Yahoo Messenger on my new AT&T 8300 and it looks like it won't work without a service book or some setting being changed by AT&T. Has anybody tried this or gotten it working?
I did read in another section that AT&T (or Cingular or both) didn't initially enable YM on their earlier BB's. Unfortunately I never found a clear answer as to whether it was enabled later on or not. This isn't a critical thing for me but it would be nice to have it back. If I don't hear anything in a day or so I'll call support and see how confused I can get the customer service reps. ;)
I have always heard that AT&T/Cingy will not support Yahoo Messenger. I have no idea why, but I tried it even after being told it would not work and guess what......it did not work.
got the same problem with aim app, its blocked if you try ota download. Jivetalk works though. whopeee!

Thanks guys, not sure how I missed that in my original search, I must have used AT&T instead of Cingular. I'm going to try restoring the service book as soon as I find the normal link to my BIS to resend the other books. Currently I can only get to the BIS from my BB. I think I need to setup an account at the main AT&T website to get to it externally.
