BlackBerry App World Updated To Version 3.0.1.20 In BlackBerry Beta Zone

By Mauricio

RIM posted a new version of BlackBerry App World in the BlackBerry Beta Zone. The latest beta is at version 3.0.1.20 and includes a bunch of fixes. Here is the list of changes for this update:

• Performance and speed enhancements across all BlackBerry devices
• Multiple translation/localization errors
• Multiple instances of UI lag
• Apps not appearing in “My World” for some users
• User continuously notified to update the same applications when on the latest version
• Memory leak occurring and taking up too much device memory
• Null pointer exception during downloads
• Escaping out of viewing app description returns user to top of installed/uninstalled list – App World should not go back to the top of list but return to the previously viewed app in the list
• Error when opening and closing some apps with the error message: “Uncaught Exception;Attempt to delete a field that doesn’t belong to the manager”
• Unable to upgrade “Try and Buy” app after installing App World 3.0
• “OutOfMemoryError” when attempting to launch App World
• No “reinstall” button available for Facebook / BB Bridge / etc in App World after deletion
• The “Reboot” option is available in the menu of AppWorld 2.1.x.x and it does not show in AppWorld 3.0.0.x

If you download this beta and get stuck on the loading screen, try these temporary fixes:

• While in App World, hold ALT and type RST.  This will reset the App World cache.  A user has told me that after doing this 3-4 times, App World now works.
• Uninstall App World and then Reinstall.  This has worked for one user after 2 attempts.
