How to install BBM for Android on Android versions 2.3 and Cyanogenmod 7

How to install BBM for Android on Android versions 2.3 and Cyanogenmod 7

Today I want to explain a possible solution that is working on some Android terminals to install BBM for Android in versions of Android 2.3 with processors armv7. If your processor is a armv6 do not worry about doing the tutorial as it will not work for you.

As you all know, BBM for Android It is available for some Android terminals with versions equal to or higher than Android 4.0. Although following this tutorial, and depending on the class of your terminal, you can probably install it in versions of Android 2.3, especially in processors armv7.

ATTENTION: New method published For those of you who don't find this tutorial working for you. Here it is.

If your terminal is in a version of Android 4.0 but Play Store tells you that it is not compatible with your terminal, go through this other tutorial with which you will almost certainly be able to install it, even if your device is a tablets which in principle are not compatible with this version of BBM for Android.

How to install BBM for Android on terminals with Android 2.3

It is necessary and essential to be a root user.

The first thing of all will be to download the necessary files to install BBM for Android in terminals with Android 2.3.

We will have to unzip the compressed file that we download and follow the instructions that I explain below:

How to install BBM for Android on Android versions 2.3 and Cyanogenmod 7

Inside the compressed file, once unzipped we will find an apk file and a folder.

We access with Root Explorer o ES File Explorer to the path where we copy the two files and copy the apk and paste it in the path / System / app and we change the permissions as I show you in the following screenshot:

How to install BBM for Android on Android versions 2.3 and Cyanogenmod 7

Now we go to the folder armeabi-v7a and we copy all the files that are inside and paste them in the path / system / lib. We will only have to copy the individual files, not copy the entire folder, otherwise it will not work for you.

Once the files are copied, we will have to change permissions one by one as I show you in the screenshot:

How to install BBM for Android on Android versions 2.3 and Cyanogenmod 7

In order not to get involved when it comes to changing the permissions, with the files already existing in that folder, look at the date of the files and you will easily find the copied ones today.

Now we will only have to restart the device and run BBM for Android that will appear in our list of installed applications within the application drawer itself.

This is working on some Android terminals, but for example in the Galaxy Tab 7 model p1000 with Android 2.3.6 does not work since the processor cortex a8 it is not compatible.

If it will not work for you and you want to uninstall the application, you will have to do it with the same file explorer Root that you used for the installation.

Please, if you follow the steps in this tutorial, we ask you to share the terminal model and the android version, as well as if it has been installed correctly or not. In this way we can help each other.

Thanks in advance for your collaboration.

      Depending on the processor ...

  6.   yadel said

    Dariodlc9@gmail.com Could you send me the file, I would appreciate it

  7.   Mayra gonzalez said

    the apk was corrupted

    1.    Francisco Ruiz said

      The links and the apk itself work perfectly, it is not damaged, it may be that for your terminal it is not valid, especially if you try to install it directly by clicking on the apk.
      You have to copy to the path that I explain in the post and there is no need to run the installation since when you restart the installed application will appear, whether it works or not.
      At the time of executing it after the restart is when we will find out if it works or not.

    Hi Francisco, I did all the steps and when I restarted the apk appeared, but when I give it to run I only get a black screen and nothing else, of course I get the BBM icon in the upper left part that I am connected but intermittent and I do not enter to the page to see the contacts or it does not load them, it will be that the cell model that I have does not accept the application or it will be for the type of armv 11 of my cell

  70.   roy said

    My system is armv11 and the file that you leave to download is armv 7, I think that must be why it does not load the screen of my contacts in BBM, you will by chance have the file for the armv 11 system… thanks
