IM program & emoticons in SMS - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

Two questions:
1. Looking for a IM program for the Diamond2, like IM+ all-in-one messenger or Fring... but one that's free, and is finger friendly. Also, fring doesn't work on the Diamond2, so that's a problem too.
2. Is there a way to use emoticons in SMS? They appear as textual letters now, and not as a graphic... this works well in most phones.
Thanks for the helpers

fring(tm) works without any error on my TD2...

I prefer Palringo myself.

I use Pigeon. http://getbest.ru/

Really? I had many problems on my device... so weird... can you give me a link to the exact file you used? I can install it, but the registration screen is cut off so I can't register and login... please help
I'm using Palringo, but it saves your credentials on their servers, as well as message history. Privacy is not their strong side...

Xda Developers Palringo Group

Do we have one already? If not I've created xda-developers on Palringo so we can get together and discuss all things HTC.
http://www.palringo.com/
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.
I'm there too and I'm inviting anyone to signup!
Wow, not a very good turnout!
Come on guys, pretty much everyone here has a device capable of running Palringo!

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.
cheers

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?

Windows Live Messenger UK

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.

Facebook Chat on HD2

This one goes to all the windows phone newcomers who are looking for a way to use facebook chat on their new HTC LEO / HD2, which lacks from both native winmo facebook app, and HTC Sense facebook integration.
The software name is FIM (Facebook Instant Messenger) and beside the fb chat it integrates many of the core facebook features like status feed, notifications, photo post, and pretty much everything else via Facebook's mobile site.
Most important is that the software is finger friendly and I'm using it myself on HD2, so later I will post a video of the software on HD2 for those who still consider buying this awesome device.
You can find the rest of the details here
You can also download it directly on your device by navigating to http://get.mosko.mobi
will give it a go
Good job

excellent app, congrats
fantastic app! best facebook app ive used on the HD2 yet! thank you!!!
does not work on 3G -1
How much is this likely to kill the battery if it was left running in the background?
I'm fairly sure it was Palringo that gave me my battery issues when I first got the HD2.
While we're talking about Facebook app on HD2, how come i can't see my thumbs of my uploaded pictures? Is this a setting somewhere or just a bug?
Thank you very much, been looking for exactly this.......
I am trying to dl this, but it looks like the website is down?
same here, seems broken? anyone got the cab?
great ap though it does drain the battery got a percentage icon running and you can see it counting down
Site seems to be working again!
Hi, excellent app! love it. BUT......
...95% of the time when I open fim and try to sign in it fails to connect and pops up with the message "Failed using the internet connection. Try to restart your data connection". This is on my HD2 which I've only had for a few days and it's also my first winmo so I'm a complete noob. It doesnt matter how many times I turn on/off wifi it makes no difference and I get the same error both on my wifi at home and at work so I'm a bit baffled - especially as it does occasionally work first try.
If anyone can point me in the direction of where I'm going wrong I will be eternally grateful lol.
Cheers,
Matt
Thanks a lot for this, it's a damn shame the official Facebook app totally sucks compared to the iPhone version which allows for so much more. It's small things like this that make the whole device user experience suck. It's not HTC's fault.

Hi all, +1 for the same problem. but i'm not a complete noob and not in wifi.
edit: I may have found the solution "Incorrect Email/Password Combination": but you are positively sure you entered everything correctly? well, if you have special characters in your email or password replace them. only numbers, English letters and of course @ at the email allowed, also keep in mind that facebook passwords are case sensitive."

Write message by Voice

hello to all do you know if exist any program for write message by voice? i remember in qtek9000 was possible but cannot remember the name of application.
i've not found nothing in the forum.
thank you
I hope there is, as it would be so useful when on the move instead of having to type...
Hope somebody knows of a link...
would be a useful app to have .

application call tellme, you can see it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKWjPONWl_c
to be honest though i have it installed and its not that great. even speaking slowly, clearly etc it struggles, any background noise doesnt help either so its too tempremental to be a daily user. you also need msvc1.6.20771 for it to work properly.
That kind of application only works properly in Star Trek. In our century we still need to learn how do this. Even the best applications written for PC still have a fair amount of errors and still need longish training sessions.
tell me do not work on my htc hd2 original rom 1.66 ita..
i lunch the app...but nothing happenz...
MSVC gave me a message error while installation proces..
tell me application is only for USA...cause HD2 usa version comes out with microsoft voice command and somehow the tell me application overwrites the microsoft voice command and works....i dont live in usa i am from greece so i read it from the official site of tell me application and users of HD2 of outside of USA will not work the tellme app and even MSVC wich come out only for USA version....anyway i hope to make a programm like microsoft voice command and especially speak to phone and convert it easy for sms sending text..!that will be awsome!!sorry for my english....
Not an app, but a service can do it
There are two services I know of that can transcribe and send a text to your contacts. Jott, which is a subscription service, and Dial2Do, which was free the last time I checked. You call the number and follow prompts to dictate and direct your msg. Not as slick as TellMe, but then again TellMe is not as slick as TellMe was supposed to be.
i would love to see an app similar to the voice-to-text one on the nexus one.
Vlingo can do it
Works fine on my Tilt but can't get it going on the HD2 because of the re-key map problems in 6.5.#. Search for the thread.

You are incorrect. There are a couple of applications, including voice to text, for the android platform that work quite well. I've personally used them, trust me it's more than possible.

You are quite correct - I only meant that they still have some annoying errors and I would expect at least 95% accuracy from such an application. As far as I know, this is not yet the case.

Could you let us know the names of these programs, pretty please?
I use TellMe on occasion on my HD2 and it works perfectly. It will even get the message correct with profanity but censors it. There was a great application that I used for the same thing on my old treo but it only worked for palm os phones.
Where did you find the download
for Tellme for your HD2?

Palringo is very good, but in my opinion the best is im+ but it is not free
i like ebuddy but the prob is its not a native wm app, wish they make it soon...
as for now i find palringo to be awesome..
Installed Ebuddy but where is it now?
Hi,
I installed ebuddy to try it. Did as suggested and choose for touch HD. Installation went OK, could start application afterwards.
It did not create an icon so it's not in the list of applications. Looked everywhere. I cannot deinstall it either. It's not in the list of programs to deinstall... where is it.
As long as it was in memory I could activate it by going through the task manager.
Some help please.
Will swith to palringo but I would like to deinstall ebuddy first!

Hi,
ebuddy is automaticly instaled under ur Java embeded soft.
Lauch JBlend app. after u can start ebudy or uninstal ebuddy...
Take really little space on your memory, about 100ko, u can uninstal or keep when u reach some problem with another IM client...

NO Skype support though! Only IM+ and Nimbuzz support Skype.
Above - There was one way to 'crack' IM+, and that method has now been patched. It was essentially a registry trick to get an unlimited trial and it no longer works. The latest 7.x's are still uncracked and therefore 100% payware. (no one provide links as it's against XDA's rules!)
Palringo needs to support Skype then I'll give it a go.
I really like the look of IM+ but they are having issues with connections for Facebook so until they sort that i am going to stick with Palringom but as mentioned above Palringo doesnt support skype.
Come on IM+ sort it out.....
I stopped reading, when I saw "Java"......
also nimbuzz it's a good im multyprotocol
