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
Download link:

Install instructions can you get here:

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.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!!
works great metanol...I didn't experiment any issue with messenger, works just like supposed to do
hotmail inbox on the contrary seems to work not so good, I'm only able to download titles of the emails but there is no option to download them...performing send/receive doesn't help
anyway I don't care about that

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?

I'm not able to launch, too
try this....
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?

I dont have any GPS software on my device, that sucks!
Anyway I can get a copy from your device?????
THANKS!
I have a better idea. Why don't you check out this thread chock-full-o applications for the Diamond. Scroll down and you'll find Google Maps and you may find other things that interest you as well. As the Diamond is very similar to the Touch Pro it should work. I got my iGo nav software up and running by reading a thread posted in the Diamond forum. So if you don't find what you're looking for over here, try over there. You may also want to try Windows Live Search. I believe the url is wls.live.com which you can download directly via your s...l...o...w... EDGE connection. Let us know how it works out.

thank you!!!!
i got it on my device but it will not show my location, it says looking for satelite.
tnx again
Also, if you're trying to download from www.google.com/gmm, make sure you use pocket IE. if you go to that website using opera, it identifies itself as a desktop browser and hence you get the error.

If you haven't already then try doing this:
1) Run QuickGPS and download latest satellite data.
2) In Google Maps select Menu->Use GPS.
Be patient the first time, it will take longer than usual to acquire a signal the first time you use it. QuickGPS should help to acquire a signal faster. If you are having trouble then make sure you are outside or close to a window with a direct view of the sky to test it, but it will probably work in the interior of your home too.
Ok so I used Internet Explorer as suggested on the board and was able to load it with no problem.
Thanks again and hope this post helps someone else.
Hi,
Had the device less than a day and loving it.
I'm finding Pocket Scrobbler can't detect track information from the HTC Music Player. I've messaged the softwares developer, but in the meantime I was wondering whether anyone had managed to get it working, or if people have a good alternative?
Regarding Fring, I tried the installation via SMS, it gave me a generic WinMo installation. It appears to install fine, but then when you select the Fring icon to open the program nothing happens. Installed a couple of times, restarted phone, but no joy with either of those simple fixes. Again, suggestions or alternatives?

As far as I know, current fring versions doesn't work with wm6.5.
The last rom I have used fringe was Roms based on wm6.1.

Ah, I see. Thanks for that.
Anyone know of other programs that amalgamate your IM/VoIP accounts for WinMo 6.5?
I have been using nimbuzz and it seems to work fine..

I am a Fring fan as well and I have written in Fring forums about the nature of the problem during my HD time (running Leo ROMs) the problem occurs only when the HTC Message is running.
So a temp fix is disabling HTC Sense from Today and enjoy Fring..
I hope the guys at Fring find a work around solution for this.
Thanks for the suggestion of Nimbuzz, I installed it a few hours before reading your post
I have just stumbled across this The .cab file linked from the Digital Spy forum is attached. It is an app to access Sky Remote Record from a WM device.
I have been waiting for something like this for a looooooooong time.
I have checked it out and it works and is easy to use. The only problem I have at the moment is that it does not appear to close properly... had to use task manager to close it.
does it have a monthly fee?

Hi there all, first time post so be kind. Anyway, I tried to install this CAB but I get an error saying 'installation failed'. If I go to p.wecomm.com/sky directly from my phone I can download the relevant file (SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0) but all it does is open up an appearance settings page for 'Today'. Strange.
Ive had no problems downloading and installing Co0kie's Home Tab Editor, BsB Tweaks, Microsoft .NET etc. so I don't think it's me (but I could be wrong).
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it, or can think of something else I can try?

I downloaded from the site and installed without a problem. The only problem i have is that it does not close. If i use task manager to close it ,it does not work and i have to reinstall it to get it to work. The only way i can get it to work consistantly it to reset the device after i have set the recording.
It seems pretty unstable. I will keep an eye on any updates.
That's strange. I've now managed to install it ok thanks to a reply on another thread i'd started. I agree that it doesn't close but it definately gets closed via task manager and I don't have to reinstall it. Try the CAB file provided as a reply to my other post in the new thread (search for my posts - I only have three - and you'll see the thread). That CAB seemed to work fine.
Hi, I've used this for a while too and also have to open my task manager to ensure it is closed properly.
Also, I find it very difficult to type on the small keyboard when logging in....but maybe that's just my fat fingers
Hi all,
Try installing the attached cab.
It has the same name as the cab in post 1 but it's the one i use and i have no problems with it at all. Everything works as it should and it closes properly.
Hope it helps.
Great App... works very well... Now only if SKY would officially launch it

Me too. I select ok on the "data total exit screen" and it drops me back to the main menu of the app. Have to press home then task manager to close it. If I then re-load the app I cannot load details of a TV programme. Thus making the app unuseable :0(

it lets you view sky channels and record sky programs remotely. you have to set up your sky account first (username/password) but its free and it works!

Doesn't work for all of us. See the "exit" problems above.
Working... mostly...
hi,
I've been using this for quite some time. It works, in the sense that I can start it, browse sky listings, get prog info and set recordings (most important features!). It is not working, or a bit poor, in the following areas... won't close (though mine does close in task manager and no restart issues), keyboard in waaaayyy too small and really hard to use, scrolling though channels is slow and tedious and there are occasional crashes.
However, it lets me record when I'm away, so I'm grateful... needs some work though to be a complete package.
im going to try this, but need to know how i can make it work for Foxtel (Australian rebranded Sky+)
HTC touch 2
I to am having problems with this app. When first installed and first time use it works ok but does fail to close. When you use again it fails to connect when you press record and times out. But only on certain pages the news channels always seems to work but all channels and the movies only work sometimes. I have tried a power off and back on but seems to make no difference. I do notice that the pass word box is emty after you have saved it so could this be a problem?
Since I flashed my ROM to Energy's I have not been able to sign into this app with my Sky ID - I get a 'failed to connect to authentication service' error. Has anyone else encountered this? Could it be due to my flashed ROM?
I have installed the latest version of skyfire from www.skyfire.com.
However, it says "skyfire cannot proide service in your country at this time". I am using energy's HD2 rom, the one with cookie's home tab.
This error doesn't let me use skyfire. Any help?
Moved as not software release.
