Just wondering if any of you are using WLM (Windows Live Messenger) on your Vox.
For the past few weeks it has been closing immediately after I open it. I have re-installed and tried different versions and it still does the same thing. Did MS put in a timebomb or something
Anyways, let me know if anybody else is having problems.
Thanks.
Well, after further investigation - WLM is still running as a bgprocess however I am unable to maximize it.
i had that problem with gonzo 6.1 v1.1 with smart toolkit running. however since using new zeeshan 6.1 rom v3 it works with or without smart toolkit
I would suggest a different messaging app. I never liked the live messenger. Try Slick!
Oh. I use Palringo and IM+. I just like the featureset of the official WLM client - actual MSN display pictures and the ability to save the contact and rename them.
Oh OK. Never mind then!

hi guys,
just wondering if the latest version of these ROMs is the final release of windows live messenger?
If so, does this fix the issue with the contacts synching ?
Thanks
Stu
contact sync??
What is the problem do you want them to sync or not? mine sync's ok and has on all the wm6 ROM's that i have installed.
not sync. I read that in the final release of WLM this would be fixed, however i'm running ROM version 2.00.02 (not sure WLM version) not even sure whos ROM it is I flashed that long ago!
But even though the tickbox for syncing contacts and messenger is not selected when I attempt to sign in it warns me that it'll be synced, if I click cancel it doesn't sign in, clicking ok signs in but adds loads of contacts to my phones address book.
I was wondering if in the latest released ROMs this has been fixed before I go through the hassle of installing a new ROM and setting everything up again for it to do the same.
Thanks
Stu
Infact I might just install a new ROM this week anyway, was back in february when I installed this one lol
Its not being fixed, that's the way the new live mobile service works.
not being fixed?
so why is there a tickbox to choose whether u want to sync the contacts or not :S
By default having the contacts synced is quite silly and I can't believe they'd do that. It's like the desktop messenger synching the contacts with outlook or outlook express.

I just lost 80 people off my list!
Stay away from it at all costs! damn stupid idiots at M$!!!
All i did was logon and when i logged on the PC i see 80 people missing!!
Please if you have a CAB file for Pocket MSN that comes from T-Mobile SDA for Installation, ill be VERY gratefull!!
Here's Windows Live Messenger for WM5/6. If you mean the MSN Messenger application included in WM5 ROM then it's already in your phone as part of the operating system. Check the windows folder for the executable...
@NiTroGenious, dear god NO! i do NOT want Live Messenger! it just cost me 80 people off my list! its horrible! all that contact syncing disaster!
I want MSN Messenger and yes i know it comes with WM5, but i put WM6 and it does not come with it, That is why i asked if someone has or can make a CAB for installing it. Since i couldn't find it anywhere on the net
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Anyway, if you don't want the "Windows Live! features", why don't you try an alternative MSN client, such as IM+?
Windows Live! features, killed 80 people off my MSN list
IM+ and the rest of the others, cost money. And MSN Messenger on the SDA is all ill need if i can port it to WM6 from the WM5.
Thank you for trying
if you used WM6 Perfect Edition, try to use IE, I add an Windows Messenger Mobile in IE favorite, it is a wap version, it works well when you only need text chat.
@andot, i did not see it, propably cause when i synced the mobile, my favorites replaced the ones you provided
I still prefer an independed solution, is there no way to integrate instmsgr from the WM5 rom?
PS: Just wanna say awesome job on WM6 andot! seriously! brought new life to my mobile!
PS2: I Just found the PERFECT solution! FREEWARE and can logon to: Yahoo, MSN, ICQ and GoogleTalk!!!
I am shocked no one told me about it before, check it out - http://www.octro.com/index.php
PS3: Here's another free one which also gives you SIP! http://www.fring.com/download

There is this one from Nitrogen HERE DownloadPocketMSN_wm5_by_nitrogen You probably know him
Also do a search for "Install_Pocket_MSN.exe" there are a few cabs around. I downloaded it and it installed fine for me. All though, I just can't get MSN to work...
And finally, as an alternate try: www.palringo.com Its what I'm using now, free, pretty flexible, still in development. So far works great for me. Audible sounds with every message you recieve, can log into multiple acounts, multiple PM's, can use on Desktop, can send voice and picture messages... try it out, Not bad at all, and it qualifies for your FREE request Good Luck mate.
@Nitrogen: Good to see you around mate!
I used Agile but it was only the trial and no matter what, it wouldn't let me continue. I really liked the IM program from WM5 and I was looking to see if someone had the cab file of it. Thanks
bump
Agile and IM+ are a no go
What IM program from WM5 do you mean? MSN messenger? There are no any built-in IM program for ICQ in WM5 at all.
If you need free icq client try Prelude 0.5.5, it work fine.
Well there is the built in one that gives you the option of using AIM, YAHOO and ICQ and I am mostly interested in the AIM part of it, but I was seeing if there was a cab of that actual built in application that I can load onto wm6
have u test FRING?
http://www.fring.com
look a great app.

I've just made this cab from a WM5 ROM. I don't have the time to test it right now. Looking forward to your comments...

I get an Installation was unsuccessful error right away.
I've just installed it successfully. No installation errors at all. But when I try to sign-in to MSN Messenger, I get "Sign-in to MSN Messenger Service is not responding. Try again later.". Windows Live Mobile Messenger is able to connect without any problem. So, there must be something missing from the cab. Any ideas???
I'm still looking for a suitable program that runs aol instant messenger. All the other ones I have tried are trials and will not run on my phone anymore. Can anybody upload the WM5 instant messenger app?
give Palringo a shot.

It doesn't start on my WM6.0
I'm looking for PocketMSN_WM5 too cuz Pocket Live messenger on WM6 sucks.
I counted 19 steps to change from one profile to another.
New working cab here:

I continue to run into an issue with WM Live where I am trying to get my email as it is received into my account.
Is anyone else having a problem where its not syncing all the time?
Same here
From of yesterday I guess
Would you guys mind posting some more information with your Windows Live problems???
Like what ROM you are currently running and maybe the version # of Windows Live installed on your device. I also think it would be helpful to point out if you are using a Tilt or Tytn II so we can see if there are any differences between the devices.
I have been running AustinSync's BigStorage ROM on my Tilt with WL version 10.6.0032.2100 and so far have not run into any problems. As a matter of fact WL is running much better on the BigStorage ROM than it was on the HTC stock rom.
UPDATE
I had to open my big mouth didn't I. Just started having all kinds of connection issues with Windows Live (10.6.0032.2100). The only changes I made were installing TCPMP and the Flashbundle.cab to view youTube videos. Now I keep having to soft reset my Tilt in order to successfully send and receive email! When I open WL and check the Sync screen it is stuck on "Checking Internet connectivity". All other applications are getting internet connections no problem (including Live Search - the mapping program) This is a major issue for me, as I use WL for all of my email and contacts right now. Does anybody have any ideas on a fix for these connection inssues.
I am running a tilt with Kaiser AKU.0.7.0 Cooked ROM v.1.57.000.1.
according to the list I'm running Windows Live Mobile 10.6.31.2600.
What other info can I give?
I have tried both of the big storage rom's and had the same problems.
There is definitely an issue were WL can not detect the Kaiser's internet connection. I have been searching for answers all night, but no luck. I even tried the "GPRS Always On " Reg tweak from the sticky post, but it did not help.
This is a big problem for me, as I use Live for all of my contacts, email, and chat.
Has anyone found a workaround or fix??
Check to see if your proxy server is checked. It was a problem I had when I could not connect to the internet.

Known issue, not yet resolved - see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332362
you can download the windows live application that is on most WM6 devices by default... at&t decided we dont need it apparently. this will allow you to do msn messenger (windows live messenger) over data instead of sms as well as working with windows live mail.
download file:

Installation
Not to be a noob, but I am, so how do I install this?
I'm using the 8525 with WM6.
My main issue is getting Windows Live to run on WiFi, I'm assuming this will fix it. Any help would be great, thanks.
Hey all,
Stop me if you've heard this one
some of the new roms are downloading my sent items from gmail into my inbox. I've never had this issue with any of the 6.0 roms. Anyone seen this or know how to fix it? I've always used pop because I dont like imap and have never seen this before.
I am currently using 3.14.DK.01 UC 2.0 Compliant WM6.1 Lite ROM, but I have also seen this on the UDK 6.1 rom as well
~Rick
The "fix" for this is to put in a fake email address right from the start. Let it fail the setup and then just edit the account after to what you need. Just an fyi though, this "fix" doesn't always seem to work. For receiving it is always fine but sometimes it doesn't send properly at all. There are other threads about this but I didn't bother to bookmark them. Another supposed fix is to put imap.gmail.com instead of smtp.gmail.com in the settings...I haven't tried this one.
same here
that isn't what he meant. gmail is working fine. all messages download perfect no problems there. but whenever a message is sent it saves a copy of it in the inbox. does anybody know how to make this stop?
I've tried the fake email and then manually configuring it, it didnt work on any of the other roms, I will try this tomorrow on this one. As far as the imap, I dont want to use IMAP, I like the way pop used to work. I mean if I have to I will but I want to try to get this to work the way it used to first.
This is the default behavior for gmail, it does the same thing if you use a POP email client like outlook or thunderbird from your desktop. I have never seen a real fix for it, on my desktop i used to create a rule that would move messages that were from me to my sent items folder. The only way I have been able to fix it on windows mobile was to set up gmail as imap.
yeah this is because gmail uses a thread type of system. As chambersaj said this happens on desktops too, as well WM 5.0 to 6.1 (all that I have used)
OK So on the rom I am using now, I entered a fake e-mail address to prevent it from auto-configuring, and now it works the way it used to. I know it does that for the outlook client, and thats fine, but it never used to do this on wm6, maybe it was just the luck of the draw for the roms I used.
