WLM connection problem
I also tested this WLM version.
Seems to be working good, login is quick, merging of WLM and Outlook-contacts is a good thing.
My problem: After some hours running, it seems to lose connection with GPRS.
I have to soft-reset my wizard to get a connection to WLM
After the reset i can connect / sync again with WLM..
So far no luck. Running Faria's WM6 and it installed okay (though very slow) and rebooted. After that I run it and it only says Sign in to Windows Live. I click it but it never connects. I've tried it through both wifi and edge. Gonna reboot my phone and see if that helps, otherwise I'm going to hope the server is down or something. Although, come to think of it, I had similar problems with previous versions too. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, who knows. I really hope I can get this working. The inability to merge WLM and Outlook contact lists is what has kept me from using it so far. If this has that fixed and I can get it to work consistently, I'm in happyville.
Edit: Rebooting fixed the connection issue. Still doesn't do what I want though. It won't take my outlook contacts and add them to Live Messenger, for instance. You would think it wouldn't be that hard to have it read the IM field in the contacts to do so. Also while it did successfully merge one of my contacts, others had duplicates. For instance, my wife has her name entered one way in WLM and I had it another. It created a duplicate for her. Both had the IM address listed as ****@hotmail.com. So, it is a slight improvement, but not there yet. I want full synchronization between Outlook and WLM. I also want to be able to add a Windows Live mail acct to my existing passport but I'm not holding my breath for that one.
Worked perfectly for me, except the fact I dont like having all my MSN contacts in my phonebook forced upon me.
is it possible to install this version on top of the WLM that already existed on cooked rom? (xplore 1.1) Or is there any way to uninstall previous version?
thanks!
WLM - how do I get rid of it?
I made the mistake of installing (ahem, "running" the thing from the Programs folder) WLM (from the RUU_mUn_aRTM_10_2_0_8_WWE-Fixed.exe ROM), and it has seriously messed up a previously good setup...
1) I can't uninstall it - this is a _bug_! It seems to insinuate itself through Windows and I can't make it stop connecting my EDGE connection..
2) Because it seems to do something to connect the EDGE connection, it also seems to prevent me from receiving incoming calls.
3) It seriously slows down my 8125.
This is not specific to this beta version but i get the defbrowser errors when trying to open links from emails also pushmail does not work reliably it often says sign in failed / sync failed. The only way to get it & messenger working again is to clear the password in account options any ideas how to fix this?
WIll not install
Guys can you help me install this please?
Whenever i run the installer on my XP SP1 machine, it does not detect that i am connected to Activesync. I am however, connected to it via USB. The installer just keeps giving the message "Connection error. Make sure ActiveSync is running"
I have tried it on 2 machines now and both have the same result.

MSN Online Contacts removed...when login..YES

what is the exact version of this, and i didn't understand, is it notify for contacts comming online!!!
Anyway of getting a CAB of this?

The exe above has the cab in it. Just start the install from your PC, but when it comes up on your phone, don't click on anything. Now with your PC (or with TotalCommander) do a search for *.cab and you'll find the cab. Make a copy of it, and you have your cab file that you can put on your storage card or where ever.
Tks for the info mfrazzz! Always learning
I tried getting the cab, but it didnt work. It installed right away without asking any confirmation.
Can anyone post the cab file?
Thanks
... Never mind.. I found it on my PC.
Thanks alot.

You must not be running a custom rom then, as most all of them stop to ask you where to install the cab, and don't delete the cabs after install.
thanks, works ok for me. glad the contacts issue has been sorted, its much nicer than Pocket MSN. i couldnt find the .cab but the .exe installed fine via my pc.
is this a beta? the install said it was a beta.

The old msn is in the ROM Memory, you cann't delete it, so just install the new one, it will rewrite the registry.
I can use it for the first 2 days, but now whenever I try to access WLM , it will connect via EDGE eventhough wifi is connected, when I connect it via activesync, it will say sign in failed.
does it work for you guys ?
hey my fellow r-tards.... does this work whith xda iq?
because the xda site said stuff for sp may not work on iq..
so any any help on this one?
regards, stuart... o krap! i revieald my name.... uhhh bye!
of course it works with xda iq, which is shipped with windows mobile smartphone edition 5.0.

Same for me, connects thru EDGE although WIFI is avalible, really annoying
Also, I can't change display name, anyone else experiencing that?
I had to disable EDGE, and delete all EDGE settings before being able to connect via WiFi
I will update the live mobile to the latest version soon.
It seems to work with some caveats:
messenger can't send messages. Presence can be seen, but no messages.
Push email sorta-works. It did in my early tests, but later I think it might not be. May need to be "logged in" to live to fix this. Also, I noted a setting on when to sync (manually/as needed/15 mins / 30 mins / etc). "As needed" is not selectable..
Thanks for your work though - very promising.
it works fine on my phone, a bit slow gotta get the omap clock again.. didnt like it cos of the warranty stuff but whatever.... only tried it through bluetooth > computer >internet though
EDIT: Damn! all my msn contacts is in my contact book, i dont want that, hundreds of mails, anyone have a sulotion?

NM all you have too do is set up a new e-mail account.
Just found out that you do not need to install the Windows Live.
Go to Windows folder and look for WLMessenger and launch it.
But this Messenger stills copy all your MSN contacts to the phone book. Quite annoying, anyone knows how to prevent the Messenger Live from copying contacts to your phone book?"
It will install. But what you get a message saying that the installation wants to cancel. Options are yes or no. If you click no it crashes, but if you click yes it installs and works great. Very weird but I had the same problem..
Good Luck

Hi, everybody! I didn't like Live Messenger for PPC, so I did not try this. I tried pocket MSN and this works allright.
I found it somewere in this forum, but I'll try to attach here.
Hope this helps!
Issue with the above...
Installed the above on my Treo 750 and can no longer connect over 3g - any ideas what might have caused this?
Anyone knows if there is a version of the windows live messenger out(for smartphone) which doesnt **** up the contact list?
Something like the one from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328392
Or are there someone capable of making a SP-version?
Yes. This version also merges duplicate contacts:
http://rapidshare.com/files/49035868/WindowsLive.Smartphone_50_arm.cab
It's version 10.6.00.26.1400 for Smartphones.

What excactly do you mean by that? Cause when I start the version you refere to (I already have that one preinstalled) I get a warning WLM are going to add my MSN contacts to my phones contactlist.
I know there is an option in WLM to deactivate syncing of contacts and messenger, but that doesnt seem to fix the problem. I think that option is for some other syncing or something..?

Thats the same version I have on my phone. I havent bothered using it cause of the contact importing.
What I and a lot of others are searching, is some new release that doesnt do this mean action.
Case closed!
Through the link in my first post you can find a version compatible with WM Smartphones. Its not a .CAB but an .exe and a nice installer.
Windows Live Messenger for smartphone (without the goddamn contactsyncing) \o/
This upgrades the WLM to 10.6.0030.2100

This version also merges the contacts. I heard that version 10.6.0031.1600 solves the issue but i can't install it on my Dash. Any ideas?

Then I think you should try again. Cause I have it installed on my phone and there are not a single contact from MSN in my phone contacts.
Dont know the DASH, but Im using a HTC S710 (Smartphone!)
v10.6.0030.2100
Cab file:
PPC: http://www.rapidsafe.net/rc-YWYxIWYzcTM/WindowsLive.PocketPC_50_arm.cab

You can choose to not sync contacts
WLM to 10.6.0030.2100:-
Advantage - Remove the automatically add msn contacts onto phone books.
Disadvantage - It slow down the Windows directory browsing times from 7 seconds to 22 seconds.
(Of coz, also slow down the browsing form Windows XP's Explorer to WM via active sync)
I'm still waiting for better version come out only install it.
For all those who had in the last days problems with WLM, here I compiled a cab from the latest WLM files, version 10.6.33.0600 extracted from HTC Wings, thanks to Dr Gonzo to share those files with me.
Please, don't forget to install only in Smartphones devices

It works pretty well on my Tornado, I hope in yours too.
I think this thread should be better moved to "Smartphone general"
I also had some issues with Windows Live on my Tornado since several weeks.
I've just made a "Clear storage" of my Tornado (with the WM6 Phil's ROM, or Perfect English, I don't remember which one I chose when I installed it in August), and I installed Windows Live from the link you gave (this is the very first application I installed after having reset the phone).
Now I can synchronise my Hotmail account again, my Messenger display picure and screenname are updated, BUT I still can't connect to Messenger. I get this:
There is a problem with the server. Please try again later.

known issue..!!! there are many people experimenting that problem with PPC and SP WLM versionen, but i've found only an unusual solution. turn off your phone connection in Comm Mngr, just activate the flight modus, restart the device, the phone should be without radio activity, and then connect to MSN via WLAN.
There is not a way to connect to the WLM using the WLAN while the radio phone activity is on, I have the feeling WLM pretends to connect using GPRS, and i don't have any GPRS profile configurated (i don't wanna expend money for chatting with WLM)
Here is an older WLM version for SPs posted from leepriestenator at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1781429&postcount=182
Is an older version which mix the phone contacts and the MSN/Hotmail contacts on the same list, not good at all. But it works...!!

My experience with WML is totally diferent. I use GPRS, I also have Wi-Fi. It will connect on Wi-Fi at all times, w/o any troubles. However it will not connect on GPRS. It goes thrue 4 of 5 steps which tells me that it is in deed connecting to the server, and it stores the PW. But when it gets to step 5 (checking internet connection), there it hangs for a while and then says I have poor or no connection.
Funny.... I do want to use GPRS, as I'm on the road all the time and have unlimited data plan... Any ideas?

Auto sync after a soft reset....
I have a strange problem... these cabs install on my device beautifully and things work perfect except for one thing. I have set up the sync schedule as items arrive... but the automatic sync does not automatically start on after a soft reset. I have to manually go and sync.... and then it works just fine... am I doing something wrong?
Is there an updated version for smartphones?

Thank you. This one really work on my Blackjack 2!!
I installed the newly released Office 2010 mobile from the Marketplace, but when I tap on OneNote, nothing happens. I have a German HD2 with stock ROM. All other apps run ok. I installed Office on internal storage.
Does anybody else have the same issue?
so You're saying it's not beta anymore? have they updated outlook as well?
Word, Powerpoint, Excel, Sharepoint & OneNote.
I didn't look if Outlook got updated too and now I have it uninstalled because I want OneNote...
and to answer your question: Yes, Office 2010 mobile is out of beta and now available on the US Marketplace.
Here is a link about the Office 2010 Mobile release: http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=16275
one note is working fine here.. did you get a localised version?
Office Mobile is available on the German marketplace as well.
It looks like there is no Outlook 2010 included. All Progs have a "Info" Tab where it shows Office Mobile 2010, Outllok is missing this and it looks exactly the same than before.

Did you manage to install the localized version? When I try to, I get an error. I can only install the US version.
After reading user comments on the Marketplace, I am not alone!
I'm using German Stock ROM with Market Place Vers. 1.2.1422.0000.
Office Mobile 2010 is the second application under "Neuigkeiten, sorted by "Neueste anzeigen". The application required a soft reset after installation and I have no problems so far. Everything is in German, no possibility to choose any language.

Maybe. I will wait till tomorrow to see if it gets any better. As I posted before I am not the only one with those problems. Just connect to the US Marketplace and read the reports. Many have issues running OneNote and Excel.
I have the same issue on the Dutch stock ROM HD2. Maybe because I installed the US version on the Dutch phone? Now the US version is bound to my marketplace, so I can't download the Dutch version. But as said, maybe that's marketplace crumbing under load?
Just downloaded from Marketplace (Holland), no issues noticed sofar. OneNote works fine.
I use a custom Rom.
It has definitely sth to do with the Live ID used for installation. I have a couple of Windows Live IDs, so I logged in with a different one (than the original one) and now I can install the "native" Office version. I rebooted and all problems are gone! OneNote works now!

Confirmed! Uninstalling US version and installing NL didn't worked with the same Live ID account in Marketplace (because I already 'bought' the free US version, and downloading NL version fails).
I linked a new Live ID account, which enabled the NL download, installed it and now OneNote is working! Also noticed that I now have labels in my menu's in Sharepoint Workspace.
It's a pity Marketplace can't figure this out for himself!

I thought marketplace is somehow similar to iTunes - means country specific.
Means, you can only connect and download from where your registration comes from.
If this is the case, no wonder it doesn´t work if you "tricked" something to get into the US marketplace - you get 409 software...
Anyway, btt, no problems here (currently in Austria), everything runs just fine.
i have the cab file...it just wont install :s
So I removed the Setup.dll file and it does (not sure of side effects yet!)
v14.0000.4524
I would like to try this but I've been having problem login into Marketplace. Always say connection error, can't connect to server. Anyone facing this problem?
Would any application conflict with Marketplace such that it affect the login in? How can I find out what's causing it?
i tried it but did not work on my HD2
uninstalled it again...
