From the forthcoming version of AFA_OS 4.7, BB3 will be totally supported.
The problem was that AFA_OS only wanted to work with icon.library 45.1.
Authors of both the updated icon.library and AFA_OS have agreed to work together to solve compatibilty issues. So they released that version that fixed incompatibilties, whilst AFA_OS 4.7 is being developed.

Excellent, thanks

Anyway, I recomend you get the latest BB4, which is a work in progress, and install those updates yourself so that you get a system much more updated and bugfixed.
