Facebook Chat on HD2 - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

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."

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?

Tiny twitter app

Hi all,
first of all a happy new year.
I wonder if somebody also uses Tiny Twitter to connect to the Twitter services.
I just started using it and it looks quite good. However, on my Vox (Win Mobile 6.0) there is no popup displayed for new tweets.
Does somebody know whether this is a common issue and is there a fix for it?
Thanks to all and have a great day
Andi
I get pop ups on mine ..but then I use Pocketwit

Sky Mobile now works on Windows Mobile

Just in case anyone who has sky hasn't realised that the application now supports Windows Mobile, The HD2 isn't listed but I just downloaded the Touch HD on, think the app is the same for all to be honest.
Works ok, good for setting sky box to record quickly if your away etc.
Also has a sky sports app and sky news app integrated.
Does need to improvements to make it better with touch screen use but overall its good.
Link please buddy,
thanks!
Just noticed there is a thread in the HD section already, but I know not all HD2 users will look in there that often anymore, i know i don't.
But you can get it from here http://p.wecomm.com/prov/prov.action?releaseId=10
big big thanks mate
No Worries
Works on mine. Here's the cab file.
Sweet this works great.
Just a shame they use a crappy keyboard but it looks like you only have to use it the once to enter user id / password
edit: it does not always shut down properly but i can live with that

Noticed mine doesn't quit properly and it keeps forgetting my username & password. Apart from that its ok!! Will come in handy when I can't be bothered using my slingbox to set the sky box!

Same here - might be due to running 6.5.3? Those who have got it working which Rom are you running?
am glad to finally have this on winmo but i must say it is appalling to use compared to the version my mrs has on her iPod touch, that one has kinetic scrolling so you can flick through hours at a time etc and we are stuck with a please wait box every time we move on half an hour, why have they made such a poor version for winmo when they already have a winner for apple :/ doesnt make sense! the SIP it uses is awful and nothing is finger friendly at all! booo sky!
found the app a while back... it works well if you forget to record something. interface is pants though.
works fine on my 6.5.3 rom
The interface needs a major fix up!
very strange, It works now.
It seems that if my HD2 is connected to the PC then it doesnt work butif i unplugged the cable then it does.
Anywa, works now. agree thatthe interface needs a major overhaul
Just got a blank screen after I attempted to connect and closed application. Now my radio seems to be screwed up takes an age to get a signal and then after I make a call it loses it again !!!!!
How did you manage to install this app? When I try to run the "SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0.CAB" It opens theme selection screen. I have HD2 with 1.43 O2 rom.
what does it use for?

facebook chat

so i have no idea why but on elegancia rom i cannot get FIM to connect ever over wifi or data and my login is always correct.
i tried palringo and it let me sign in once but then always gets a not authorized error.
so right now i cant use facebook chat on my phone and it sucks.
any other apps or maybe a fix?
Did you try Palringo?
re-read my post
Most of the really nice ones cost money...Like Agile Messenger and IM+...
You can try Nimbuzz...worked better for me than Palringo and its freeware...

That is odd....I cant really help because I havent used it in a long time...
Sorry I couldnt help more, glad at least ya got something running.
Cheers!
blahh. it only appears to work on wifi.
facebook keeps giving me messages about someone in the uk trying to sign in so apparently palringo and nimbuzz use a server overseas and facebook freaks out and blocks it?
try this.....
what makes that one different? it just worked over wifi for me.
and worked over edge, weird thing is i had to change internet networks. t mobile internet didnt work, my isp didnt work. but finally t mobile data did.
thanks alot!
if you go to m.aol.com and download AIM it has facebook built into it

Hi!
I can't see an app for Windows Mobile, when choosing device HTC it just shows alot of Android devices

[Q] Wahtsapp + contactpics problem

Hey guys,
i and probably other seem to have this problem...
i flashed a new rom and everything else is working fine.. i synced my google contacts with my facebook contacts and they all have a nice picture in the contacts categorie as it should be.. also if i receive a sms or somebody calls me it shows the picture
but when i go into wahtsapp it shows only the green android symbol..
a few wich have a picture directly in my google account are shown, but not the majortiy with the fb pics
anybody an idea how i could manage for it to show the fb pics also
waht i find funny is, that a before i flashed to sense 3.5 it all worked like it is supossed to
best regards,
Hey, it may be so that with flashing the new rom your facebook contacts(and their respective pictures) are suddenly not accessible by third party apps. You can try the Photo Unlocker app made by ChainsDD. The app is legit and just requires a rooted phone.
Good luck and let me know if you find a fix as i had the same issue. Happily enjoying MIUI now tough
Kind Regards.
seems like a solid idea.. you mind sharing a download link?.. seems thats its not on the market anymore =(
Well that's strange, i guess it was actual doing its job then. Unable to find any legal free versions after a quick browse, can't help you anymore then unfortunately.
Anybody perhaps with an different idea?
Did you not get my private message?
ups.. didnt saw it.. but it worked great big thx to you
funny part.. i asked chainsDD yesterday on twitter why he took it down from the market and he responded:
"because it's broken... and I haven't had the time to fix it... :-(" .. seems that he was wrong
