Finally, this day, 22 Oct 2013, BBM (Blackberry Messenger) for android is available on Playstore.
After download the apps, and follows the installation wizard, to sign in with my blackberry ID, at first try, the server of Blackberry is disconnected, may be because of traffic overload from new millions of user to Blackberry server.
"Ok, I'll wait..", and then after several hours, I tried to reinstall the apps, and finally, got successfully login and connected to BBM.
"Wait,.. why no BBM contact is transferring to my android device ???", that's what I think after waiting for some minutes.
I call some of my friend to ask them, do they have the same problem with me. Unffortunately, no body has the same problem with me, their device successfully transfering previous contact from blackberry device.
"Hmm.. what is happening here?"
Then, I start googling to find the problem, and finally got some clue, from BBM official site, in FAQ section:
Ask:
I still have my old BlackBerry but don’t have a BBID. Can I still recover my BBM contact list?
Ans:
If you switched from a BlackBerry device running BBM 6.2 or earlier and you still have access to it, do the following:
1.On your BlackBerry smartphone, update to the latest version of BBM and sign in using your BBID.
2.On current smartphone, sign in to BBM using the same BBID.

The problem is that my BBID (Blackberry Id), is never connected to my BBM, as I used an old OS5 powered Blackberry device with BBM version 6 that hasn't support BBID.
So, I guest, the solution is :
- Go back to my old blackberry device,
- install BBM version 7,
- Restore my back up,
- Get the device connected to my Blackberry Id,
- and then reinstall the app on Android to get BBM Android connected with Blackberry Id that contain my blackberry contacts
I'm gonna try it this night, and give some update whether it is succes or not.
Thanks for Reading :)
So, the result of above teory is 100% Success.
But, prior to my pre-failed installation, I have some notes to you that have the same problem. Here is the full step:
1. Go back to your old blacberry device
2. As my device OS is version 5.0, and my BBM is version 6, uninstall blackberryID from application list (Option-Application-Addon-Blackberry ID)
3. restore your backup contact to your old blackberry
4. upgrade your BBM to version 7
5. if you download BBM from appworld you should asked for blackberry ID, if not, it will asked when you first run your BBM ver 7.
6. Register a new email for your BBID (Blackberry ID), don't use your old Blackberry ID that have been used in prefailed installation, because your contact will be lost again, and you must repeat your action from point 2.
7. your BBM 7 should connecting to all your contact by now, keep it for about 1 hour or more to make sure that all your contact is synchronized with your BBID
8. Now, it's time to migrate to your Android Device
9. Remove your preinstalled BBM for android, and download a clean apk from Google Playstore
10. Run your BBM for android apps
11. When you asked for BBID for registration, use your old pre-failed BBID to bypass BBID registration queue, it is the trick that I learn for waiting the queue about more than 12 hours
12. Now, you'll be redirected to sign in page, sign in with your fresh BBID
13. The screen will show you that the apps is trying to connecting with your BBID.
14. Restart your android
15. Finish... Your Android should list full contact by now
OK.. that' all I can share, hope it will be usefull for you.. enjoy :)
