Hi everyone...
I heard that a friend of a friend got a new Blackberry device, and since she performed a backup of her old Blackberry contacts and restored them to her new device, her BBM friends automatically got reloaded in her new device (makes sense).
What surprised me was: apparently her BBM friends didn't even have to re-add her new PIN. She remains as their contact, and on her friend's Blackberries, her PIN was automatically updated to the new one. I heard that the backup/restore process was done remotely (through email).
Does that make sense....? Can the above really be done?
I am asking because I just got a new device.....my old one is the Bold 9780, and my new one is the Bold 9900, and I want to export my Bold 9780 BBM contacts to my Bold 9900, and I thought it would be nice if people didn't have to bother re-adding my new PIN.
If I were to perform an offline backup using the Blackberry Desktop program (i.e.: exporting a .con file from the 9780 to the 9900) would it work the way I want?
