Evernote for BlackBerry: Direct Downloads

May 12th, 2009

We recently announced the availability of Evernote for BlackBerry. Since then, many of you have requested a direct download link. You’ll find it below. But first, an explanation of why we prefer to distribute via BlackBerry App World.

BlackBerry smartphones come in lots of flavors: different devices, different operating systems, different carriers. Each of these variables can affect the way that Evernote functions on a device. BlackBerry App World allows us to ensure that only those devices that we’ve tested get the application.

By downloading below, you understand that we do not officially support your flavor combination and, as a result, do not guarantee that the application will work as expected.

BlackBerry App World is still the preferred download method, so please check there before downloading here.

Downloads

There are two installation options. Download the ZIP file and install the application using BlackBerry Download Manager on your desktop. Alternatively, point your BlackBerry browser at the appropriate link to begin an Over The Air (OTA) download. If you have a Storm, please download the Storm version.

THANK YOU!!! Now I can stop checking App World incessantly. I am looking forward to finally being able to use Evernote on a regular basis. A great app but not nearly as powerful as it is when integrated with the mobile component. Blackberry + Evernote = Great Potential!

How about a version for poor Google Android G1?

Looks great! Now how about one for S60?! I am a paying subscriber who has just swapped his HTC for a Nokia and who is now really suffering from the loss of Evernote!

After pretty some seconds

Anyone with thoughts?

The Storm OTA version is coming up:

Download Failed
907 Invalid COD
HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error

I get this same message when I follow the upgrade link from the Evernote app that I installed from AppWorld.

I downloaded the app from the app store on monday and it was working great. Today it is completely gone. There is no download button at the app store and the manual link from your site fails when I try to downroload. Any ideas?

I issues with installing the app on my Blackberry Storm. I’ve tried App World (Canada/Bell network) and it doesn’t appear. I’ve tried the OTA install and get the following error:

Download Failed
907 Invalid COD
HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error

I’ve downloaded from the direct link and tried to copy the jar file to my media card and install from there and also get an error.

Seems like this version doesn’t like my BB.

I concur that a version for OS versions < 4.6 would be nice. I’ve got an 8330, so it’s not antique by any stretch, but the most recent OS update I can seem to get is 4.5 …

Thanks for the direct link! My App World still doesn’t show the Evernote application. But the directly downloaded version works like a dream!

Blackberry’s “App World” suffers from a HUGE invisibility problem, IMHO. My device is too old to run this EverNote application apparently. But I didn’t know that (or wasn’t positive about the version #, to be more fair to myself). But I went to the App Store expecting to find the EverNote application and have the App World application tell me whether or not my device was compatible. I searched and searched on many different keywords, I browsed folders, not EverNote application. Turns out, I guess, that App World won’t show you applications that aren’t compatible. So you’re left assuming that the app isn’t *there* yet and coming back over and over again to check for it. Sucks.

So wish this would work on my company issued Curve 8330. If anyone gets it to work, please let me know.

After getting the same error as many others when using the direct link (907 Invalid COD HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error). I cleared my storms cache operations and the download / install was successful. Hope this helps.

Wow, lots of people complaining about this. BB is really hard to develop for, and there are huge differences between BB devices and OS versions that appear very similar. My company ran into similar problems trying to develop for BB, it was a nightmare. Hang in there guys!

Used the OTA to install on my pearl which is using 4.5 and so far working perfectly. Will test more, but it looks like I can use it without issue.

I get a message saying it needs
net_rim_xml_org

..which is not installed.

Can anyone direct me to get that? Thanks, John
I have a Pearl, I think it has the latest OS.

why focus on the minuscule number of people that have 4.6 and ignore all the 4.5 people?

After having used the iphone version for awhile, I have to say I’m SORELY disappointed in the BBerry client (on an 8900). It’s a near POS on a relative basis… maybe the OS’s fault though…..

If I try to look in I get the error:

I use a
Blackberry Bold

Any ideas?

hi Any joy to be had for us 88xx series users? Stuck with Verizon on BB OS 4.2.2.148

(That’s what they give us…)

Thanks. Love Evernote!!! xD

I can confirm that the Evernote Application DOES work on 4.5 devices.

Use the “BlackBerry OS 4.6″ OTA link above, download and install.

I am using a Verizon Curve with OS 4.5.0.77 (latest available), and the application works perfectly – including snapshot notes using the phone cam.

Creating and searching notes is very, very nice, all integrated with the Evernote App. Viewing and managing your notes is accomplished through the Evernote mobile web interface – which is a bit clunky. All said, 5 out of 10.

OK, just downloaded latest OS to my 8330. Since the latest OS available is 4.5, I had to download the app from here (thanks, guys). Had to spend about an hour on the phone with Verizon. Then, I finally got the app on my BB and I have to say that I am kind of disappointed. I can’t wait until Verizon gets the iPhone…

Hi guys

I have an 8310, with OS 4.5. And it works like a breeze. I can type notes, take pictures, capture soundbites, sync them without problem with my other two pcs and the web…

Am I missing something?

Only thing I don’t like: no list view or note view… It goes to the web (no local storage).

cheers,

Frederic

Hello I am BlackBerryBold user in Japan.
It is released from docomo in Japan.
Evernote was installed.
It is not possible to use it because of the network error.
I get an error “Error communicating with the Evernote servers”
Docomo has not opened the setting of APN to the public.
APN cannot be used in Japan.
Please support the connection with BIBS.

Upgraded my 8310 O2 Curve from 4.2 to 4.5 and tried an install. Seemed to work at first but caused the whole system to hang. Hope this configuration is supported soon!

I have been waiting for this for a long time! I downloaded the zip file and installed it with desktop manager on my Pearl 8100. It works GREAT! It was easy to install and after using it for a day, I have not found any glitches. I am running 4.5 OS, so I don’t know if it will work with Pearls using older OS systems. Great job Evernote!!!

Any chance of seeing this app for the older BlackBerries with 4.5 OS? >.< I’m absolutely dying to get my hands on this but unfortunately I have a curve 8310 and can’t use it *pout* LOL

I installed evernote on my AT&T blackberry 8300, running 4.5.0.110. I thought it was okay, but I had a problem. To begin with, it will not allow the user to decrypt encrypted notes (just like the web version). The is a deal breaker for me. Two days after installation, it prompted me for a OTA upgrade. So I went for it. The installation crashed the bb which resulted in a battery pull. When the phone rebooted, the battery was at zero and shut off. I had charged the bb that morning and I get about three days. After I popped in my spare battery I found that evernote was gone. We really need a 4.5 version. I doubt there will be a 4.6 upgrade for the 8300 phone.

I also just installed it on my 4.5 OS BB 8130. Works great. I don’t really understand why you can’t install it through BB Appworld if you don’t have 4.6+.

My only real complaints are: I would like to see the application size come down a bit – it’s almost a megabyte and the fact that it still relies on the web interface for a bunch of stuff.
