Hi, i have searched the dream forum but have not found any conclusive answers to my specific problem. I know that T-Mobile do not allow MSN/ Windows Live Messenger in the UK and as such do not bundle the G1 with it. However it is bundled with the American G1 as far as I am aware and was wondering if there was a way for somebody to upload the application so that i could install it manually, an .apk maybe. I have tried all of the other messenger substitutes and have found them to be satisfactory but have individual downfalls. Since i have used the Windows Live application on the Xperia I have realised how good mobile MSN can be and would like the true experience if at all possible.
i guess the application is actually shipped with every build, but you will need a non-uk sim to activate it.
Please post the apk,worth a try
well i don't really know anything about the application itself since i've never had it, but is there a way to get the application from the phone and upload it or is there any source code that an application can be built with?
Hi!
I would reccommend the program Hi MSN! from the Market. I used to use the "native" IM app, and have to say that I like Hi MSN! more. I am also a UK user
Try Hi MSN, and if you don't like it I will find the old IM.apk

I've tried Hi MSN but i always get connection issues. Most of the time it does not connect at all and other time it disconnects whilst i am logged in without it telling me. I have also tried Meebo and few others but even when they work they do not give me all of the features i would like. The windows messenger on the Xperia is very much like the computer version and i would like something like that.

AFAIK, the bundled MSN messenger use text(!) to send and receive messages if you're not on wifi - unless you have an unlimited sms/text plan, you might be up for a nasty surprise.
I too use Hi MSN, and for me it works flawlessly.

er why not try meebo, it's on the market and a free download. It a very good msn, aim yahoo client. Been using it for a long long time no had any issues at all. i m also in UK
I had it on one build, it wouldn't sign in for me
My gripe with Meebo (as with Palringo et al) is that it's not an MSN (or Yahoo or aim) client - It's a Meebo client, and you connect to MSN/Yahoo/whetever thru their service. An added layer I'd rather be without.

Yes i agree with that but i also think that while Hi MSN is probably the best version out, it still lacks some features that are already available in mobile MSN applications.

As you all know, the Treo 750v does not come with Pocket MSN, but it is sometime nice to be able to chat on MSN Messenger while on the road. Does anyone know how one goes about reinstalling Pocket MSN onto a device? I have other WM5 devices (Tytn), is it possible to extract the program into a cab to install?
It should be. It can most likely be extracted from the 750 Cingular rom update and cab'd up.
man, better use agile messenger for wm5 - last beta is free and it is so much better than the old msn messenger:
- use smileys
- send camera pictures directly
- keep history of chats (just like on pc)
- use not only msn but also icq, aol, yahoo, google im
here's the download: http://updates.am-im.net/AgileMessengerWMPPC.zip - it's the cab file in the zip, so copy it over to your device and run it there. hint: make the cab file write protected on your desktop (right click on the cab), then copy it over to your mobile's storage card and install it. it won't be deleted then and you can always reinstall it when you need it again.
cheers, lutz
Just install this... ;-)

Does that use WIFI or sms to send messages?
it uses wife to connect, if wifi is available and enabled. sms is never used to send messages, if there is no wifi it uses gprs/3g connection.
i would not use the windows live client - it's a big monster...
cheers, lutz

Thanks for U help.

Excellent, thats just what I'm looking for. Seems like I'd have to pay for it though, not a good sign. Is there anyway I can get this program for free?

Sorry, I wasn't clear on what I said.
I already have Pocket MSN on my MDA, but I'd like to use Agile messenger since it can be used over WIFI too. My question is, is there a way to get Agile for free? I know its a long shot.
One more thing, can Agile be used over GPRS?

Agile on Treo
Maybe it works on a Treo 750 but not on your PPC?
Or do you also have a Treo?
Check the site; http://www.agilemobile.com/agile_messenger.html
To me it sounds like e settingproblem because it even works on my SPV550, my Qtek S100 and on a Qtek 2020 without any problems
Good luck!

I don't have a Treo, but a PPC (MDA). I haven't managed to get it to work with GPRS(EDGE), but thanks for your help anyway.
EDIT: I have managed to get it to work on GPRS SOMEHOW. I haven't done anything and it just started working. This is great, I can be on MSN/Yahoo/Google messengers from anywhere! Thanks!
thanks of rthe post of the file, even though its a beta version, I think is really good. I have the SPV M3100. It works really well. When it comes of beta will they make us pay for full version?
Many thanks again!

I agree there.
Hands down the best IM program for WM.
I've been using the latest version on WM6 and it works great.
My only complaint is that on reboot some times it's today plugin won't load. This isn't WM6 though because it happened on my WM5 device too.
It seems to do it a lot less often in this new version though.
Very good app.
Did you have to pay for it...I did a quick google search and it took me to a pay site...I was in a rush tho...so I guess I have to search a little more later...
yes, it is a pay app...

May be old, but it's still good. Used it on WM5 and STILL using it on WM6. . . works like a charm!!
AT&T WM6 Messenger (aim, yahoo, msn)
On this ebay post.. there is an 8525 running wm6 with an interesting app which has aim, yahoo and msn functionality. Can't wait for that update! Has anyone ripped out that messenger to work on wm5?
I believe it's the standard OzIM program, but if I'm not mistaking, I think it uses SMS instead of internet to send/recieve messages.
It Is the OZ Program! I Have both OZ Programs (T-Mobile And Cingular). If anyone is interested pm me! I have also posted the T-Mobile OZ Program Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302654 Post #2. Hope It Helps. And Yes OZ Takes From Your Texting. But Y Care If You Have Unlimited Like Me
Heres The Cingular OZ Instant Messenger Program If Anyone Is Looking For It. Hope It Works! Havent Tried It Cuz It Wont Work On Tmobile Phone. Tell Me If It Works Thanks!
i just installed it... i have 'Cingular Blue', so if anyone has any idea how to configure the Cingular OzIM to that, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Does it need internet?
So, if OZ Messenger uses text messaging, do you still need to be subscribed to an internet plan? Cuz doesn't the program still connect to go online first (wap.voicestream.com thru your connection settings)
I spoke to a t-mobile rep, and they said they "think" you need the internet plan for it to work. But if thats the case, you have to pay for an internet plan AND a text messaging plan? Catch 22 if you ask me. But its hard to really trust their word, cuz their representative are all mindless idiots, im so sick of dealing with them.
But if indeed it uses the internet plan to go online first, then you might as well buy IM+ as it is 10x better and instant messages come in real time.
Please advise

you don't need a data plan but you will need your connections setup because of the texting..Which is VERY slow
Just get IM+ if you want pay for it or just find the crack..Just not on this forum.
it won't work for me on my MDA. but i only have the t-mobileweb plan with the proxy and not the total internet plan. IM+ also won't work either...well AOL will because I can specify for it to work on port 25 but everything else won't work because the ports are blocked with the proxy.
Do we have one already? If not I've created xda-developers on Palringo so we can get together and discuss all things HTC.

Once you're in with your client of choice go to "Groups" and "Join a Group" then type in "xda-developers" to join and start chatting.
If you're on your mobile and don't have a good data tarif you might want to use wifi; photo-spam will ensue!
Damn I'm addicted to this app!
Palringo is a great app.

Wow, not a very good turnout!

I installed Palringo but it will NOT uninstall properly, and now i receive an error each time I boot up my Hermes
I've never had the inclination to uninstall it, but that's a bit irritating.
I imagine the error is Palringo attempting to run at startup? In which case you can manually go into the start up items folder of your device and remove the shortcut.
The folder path is \Windows\StartUp
not been in here for ages, but hanging in the palringo groups is pretty good, what did I do before Palringo ?
dont use it but will check it out if its got anything to do wit my ppc.

PTT just seems to send a WAV. Can it not do proper PTT even Palringo to Palringo?
Palringo is the second most-used app on my phone (Opera Mini is #1). The recent update that adds the "chat" menu is a huge improvement, since I can actually have multiple IM windows open now. I don't like the fact that my connections are proxied through palringo servers, but it's still the best free IM app I've found.
BTW, even the JavaME version works on the Kaiser in JBED. Don't know why anyone with a Kaiser would want to use it, but it's still cool. I used the Samsung version.
I just joined the group, so I might bug some of you just to try out the PTT and other features I've never used before.
well used app. just how can we get it to work without explorer first
I'd like to know if is possible to change the picture of exibition in MSN
How can I do it?
palringo wont stay open
ive been using palringo for a while now and i like it but recently its been acting odd. when i flash a new rom and i open palringo its all good. after it updates the software, palringo wont stay open. i open it and as fast as it opens, it closes.
anyone else?
is this really the main room? or is there a bigger one?
palringo is the best multi server IM App??? what do you guys think?
Or if there is a betther one please let me know, ok?
For those of you having issues upgrading to the more stable and faster WM6.1 because of incompatibility to IM+ instant msging.... feel comfortable to flash now. Shapeservices just release an upgrade v4.55 that works great with 6.1.
Awsome work guys!!!
not working with every 6.1 rom.. im getting blank box where txt is suppose to be put in on the current rom im running..
Umm... isn't it easier to just use QIP? (www.qip.ru)
Or IM+ supports something QIP doesn't?
well see thing is.. i only can read english
and the qip i downloaded onyl supports icq?
There is an english link at the top right of the screen.
does is support yahoo messenger?
there are no faq so I cant find out if QIP uses text, or internet. Anyone know?
This QiP thing only works with ICQ, so its useless
Also IM+ has a version that works with Lotus Sametime, which is what my company currently uses, so it's a product we're licensed for on a corporate level. QIP looks nice but doesn't cover everything.

Yes it does and working so well more than u expected. In addition, It has ICQ, google talk, hotmail... and 3 more i dont remember.
BTW, in my opinion IM+ is the best chat software for PPC. Ver 4.55 is compatible with WM6.1, I've been using it for a week with latest Dutty 6.1 rom.
I have its cab file, if you want me to share I will upload it.

I believe you have to purchase it, so don't share it. On the main website, there is a trial, so that'll be good enough.

It has a nicer interface then IM+ too, and you can send audio and pictures (itll upload to a palringo server where the receiver can click the link and see). It is really nice!

I like it.. the one downside is that I can not get it to initiate a data connection by itself. I have to open up opera mini, load a page, then palringo will connect using the connection opera opened.
It has become the messenger of choice for me on my PC, for the time being, works nicely through my corporate firewall.
fixed the connection problem..after last rom flash medianet proxy was turned on. turned it off and all was well.
Are there any applications for chatting on Google Talk (I believe it's the Jabber/XMPP protocol) and/or Yahoo Messenger available for WP7?
Specifically, I have an LG Optimus 7.
Same question here - anybody interested in starting a homebrew effort?
IM+ is coming, hopefully sooner rather than later.
I imagine the lack of socket support makes things a little more difficult for developers.
I heard Yahoo had a webapi (http)? I would try but it's christmas season and I got deadlines to meet at work, with a webapi a yahoo client should be easy to develop

What's with WP7 devs man? I'm finding a lot are like that, great app then a few weeks later, take it off the market for some stupid reason.
You won't see much until Mango because the API's developers need to really make IM's work isn't in current OS builds. Flory was horrid, and I don't think IM+ will be that great as it still needs to rely on a 3rd party server system to do notifications.
There is also no multitasking until Mango which is needed for the ability to have it run in the background and notify you when somebody sends you a message.
