Hi. I'm running a T-Mobile Dash with Windows Mobile 6, and I'm looking for a free IM client that can connect to AIM, at least. I know Windows Live gives me Pocket MSNIM, but only a tiny minority of my friends use that. The on-board Oz Instant Messenger refuses to work with AT&T, and I just get error messages, so I'm kind of at a stand-still right now.
The other thing I'm looking for is a lower priority, I'm trying to find an SSH client for my SmartPhone too. PocketPuTTY, I've heard of, but I can't seem to find it. Again, I'm cheap, so I'm hoping for something free.
There's one catch to all this: I'm running a Mac, so EXE installers are no-go. CABs and SFX (Self-Extracting ZIPs) are usable, but anything more complex isn't going to work.
Thanks for all the help!

Welcome to XDA-Dev
Rule of thumb: follow my articles - I've published full Bibles and roundups on almost all aspects of handheld computing. Your question is answered in the Smartphone General forum, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323654
Let me know if you need help in extracing the CAB file of any EXE installers - I'll upload it for you.
Oohh, useful!
Well, thank you. Your article was thorough, and (in the end) informative. I was aware of Mundu, IM+ and Imov messengers, and I was hoping someone had an alternative to them that was free. Your article eventually lead me to the Basic version of Imov, but the problem is that it's one of those set-up EXEs that I can't seem to crack. I've managed to find a download of Imov Basic 1.22, and I'd be willing to provide it for you.
Thank you for the offer, and all the help.
is there any cracked verson available for mundu

IM App
Have you tried Palringo yet?
Fring is a free IM app too(Just released a new version today that supports AIM). Palringo is pretty good too.

Since I don't see it mentioned, you may be able to use PocketPuTTY,
http://www.pocketputty.net/ ,
for a SSH application. It works for me. The file that you download while named PocketPuTTY.exe is a Windows Mobile binary. Just copy it to your phone and run it. Hope it works for you.
So regarding IM clients Do they all use webgateways provided by the Makers. Are there any that directly connect to the AIM, Yahoo!, and MSN Servers?
Not that I walk around wearing a tinfoil hat. but I just like to know where my data is being sent.
Octro Chat uses one. But I can't find any info as to if mundu uses one. If they all use it I will get over it but I was just curious is anyone knew.
pocket putty doesnt run on smartphones just ppc. i am also looking for a free shh client for smartphone (wm standard)
if your looking for just aim..this is about as good as your gonna get lol
Guys, google isn't playing ball, is there any list of mobile phones that use Windows Mobile 6 or newer out there?
I have tested ActiveSync on our company exchange server using our Verisign certificate with an HTC S710, and want to give users a list of 'recommended phones'. I have a feeling I should recommend Windows Mobile 5 phones too but not 100% sure of that.
One of the problems is Verisign sells you an 'intermediate' certificate and that doesnt work out of the box on devices that dont support certificate chaining. but at least on Windows Mobile 6 that was easy to fix. I really dont want to end up taking ages setting up their newly acquired Symbian or whatever phones. The Sony P1i was a lost case last time I tried and even when 'working' Activesync was rubbish on it.
Well, you always can go to www.gsmarena.com and use their "Phone Finder" at the left bottom, then select "Windows Mobile" as OS and you should get a pretty decent list of available devices.
Perfect, thanks

HTC Touch Pro
anyone have new programs for the HTC Touch Pro with windows 6.1 operating system... I am tired of those Fruity phones having neat programs and I don't...

Hello!
I have got the Xda Diamond (~HTC Diamond from o2 Germany) with Windows mobile 6.1
I´m studying at the Technological University of Berlin. To log on the local area network (eduroam) of the university, I need a VPN client. But there is no version working with WM6.1, I tried about three different clients (it always says, that ... is no win32-application)
For example that one (as recommended by the network administration of the TU Berlin):
http://www.tubit.tu-berlin.de/filea.../Windows_Mobile/SecureW2_EAP_Suite_112_CE.zip
Does anybody which client I should take?
Thank You for answering and greetings from Germany
Network storage application
I would like to have an application that could convert my micro-sd card into a network storage, being able to access this folder through my home lan. It would be similar to WM5torage but for WiFi (not usb).
Please note that I'm NOT asking for a way to access a network folder in my PDA (the usual reply I get). I already know how to do this with total commander. What I want is a way to create a shared folder inside Windos Mobile, that I can access from my computer through my home network.
TIA.
Visual Voicemail
I think that Visual Voicemail is a place where Windows Mobile is lacking compared to the iPhone.
It would function by receiving emails with mp3/wav attachments from online voicemail services such as Youmail. It would cypher the information from the email and provide information for that voicemail.
There is a discussion on the topic right now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
A developer has started toying with it but NEEDS help!
Thanks everyone!
Hi
Im using Imate Jam (Magician).
I want a software which turns my ppc into an answering machine i-e it can automatically reply/block sms and accept/reject/hang/answer calls based on predetermined rules. The software should also have the capablity of scheduling text messages and then sending them out smoothly.
Ill be extremely grateful if you help me out and provide such software.
If such software already exists please pardon me and tell me where to get it.

MOD EDIT 2: User is looking for something that supports wm 2003
i think my request would be somewhat easy to accomplish, but as im not so technically inclined (and somewhat too lazy to really try), ill ask here....
....what im looking for is a way to have area code matching on my Kaiser, or on Windows Mobile phones in general.....what i mean is like, when i receive or place a call, once the number is dialed, it shows the state corresponding to the area code i've dialed.....i know my old Samsung A920 did this, along with some other Samsung and Sanyo phones, and i think it would be great for WinMo....
Yet another think XDA's lack is a Myspace app. Maybe we can get something rolling like this facebook app that is being created???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455263
Please back me up if you would like to see an app like this.
A "visual voicemail" app for diamond and other ppc phones that can record phone calls
as some of you may already know the diamond can record both sides of a conversation during a phone call using the notes application.
I read in another forum where someone was asking about visual voicemail and since sprint charges for forwarding calls there is no good option.
I was thinking maybe if there was a developer willing to give it a go to develop a "visual voicemail" application that would answer the phone after a user defined amount of rings,
Record the message while muting the phone's mic of course that way you don't get background noise from your own phone and then save it in mp3 or wav.
Then have it give you the phone number the time, date and the option to listen to the message either with a built-in player or with windows media.
To give you a visual of what i'm talking about if you've seen the visual voicemail app on the samsung instinct something like that but everything is done on the phone side.
Hopefully someone will agree that this would be a useful program and give it a shot.
Attention Required to upgrade my fone !!!
Hi All,
I juss found the update with HD elements in the forum which seems to have a good impact.
Let me start of with my problem. i'm using HTC Touch(might be ELF) and i keep visiting xda forums for new apps., for my fone. I installed Manila 2D earlier which made the fone very very very slow. I'm giving you my details of the fone below.
Rom Version : 2.20.720.2B WWE
Rom Date : 10/02/07
Radio Version : 03.07.90
Protocol Version : 4.1.13.51
ExtRom Version : 2.20.720.103
RAM Version : 128MB
Flash Size : 256MB
Storage Size : 144.23MB
Model No : ELF0100
My Fone is working on WM 6.0
Now what is require is i would like to have to install WM6.1 on my fone with the new Touch VIVA Interface. Is this possible ? if so please cud some one assist me how to install for the same. As earlier i written Manila 2D made the fone completely slower. So i would like to upgrade my ROM (what ever) as i not much aware of this installations or upgrades.

Jeyo Mobile Companion alternative and HTC Phone pad Upgrade
Well my request wouldnt be new anymore but i still want to pursue it if ever a developer would make it,
a jeyo mobiler software like, that can manage your text messages from the pc, send, recieve and read text messages from the pc and lastly a decent back up process that could backup even if ur message is over 160 characters (1 message line) jeyo has a screw up on the back up process coz, it shortens a text message fixed to 160, so if your text message is 165, if jeyo is to back it up it will only store a 160 char message back up. you lost the data. I need to back up morethan 5000 messages and most of which are over 160 character.
another request would be a newer version for HTC phone pad input..
this input application ROCKS! its like using a cellphone keypad over your pocket pc. so texting wouldnt be so much of a problem if your walking or something. the modification i would like to ask is character deletion from 2 character to one and higher WM version compatibility, as I tried it before, phone pad had issues with WM6.1.
alarm sound on vibrate/silent?
in some ROM's there is an option under "more" in clock & alarms that allows you to enable the alarm sounding when on silent or vibrate. does anyone know of a CAB that you can install that will add this feature without downloading the whole ROM'?
VGA Backgrounds
Looking for a VGA background using orange & blue and/or the Florida Gators, University of Florida, UF, Gators... you get the idea. If not familiar with what shades of orange & blue... see examples of the latter.
I use TF3D, so I'm not looking for full out themes- no TSK files please.
Is there an application to delete a file && is there an application to run commands like dos batch??? my target is to make an installing cab that on the next startup start an application and then delete the file started or the link to the started application
PLZ coul you help me?!?!?

MOD EDIT: Go Here for a tutorial on installing programs to your ppc.
I went from iphone to android to webos to comeback to android.
I use google voice. I use last.fm to scrobble. And pandora.
None of this are on windows mobile marketplace.
I just got the htc hd2 today while i love the hardware and everything. Comparing other mobile os's windows mobile sucks in terms of
app choices.
Can somebody please guide me in the right direction for replacements
or if the programs are available please tell me how to get them?
I also noticed my email inbox looks like it never left the 90's. Html emails are not being displayed and pictures are not loading automatically.
Trying to adapt need it for work so i must make the best out of it

Okay... look here for all the apps we use on our hd2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603880
On Windows Mobile.. you can look for apps outside of the "marketplace".. you download them as a .cab file (on pc or phone) and place them on the sd card if you want... which out the box is unique to windows mobile (doesn't eat up phone memory (but not that we lack it on the new hd2 lol))
Once the .cab file is on your phone/sd card... in the phone you go to file explorer (in the start menu)... click on it and navigate to where you placed the .cab file and run it. You can save the installation to the "device" because there is plenty of memory and tends to run better.
To awnser your questions;
[1] Google voice idk, but im sure google will have a wm app out soon (if not already, im not 'in' google voice so dunno)
[2] Last.fm Googling around a bit i see they (or someone) released a windows mobile app in 2008, but all links to it trow a 404, so check out their mobile forums, specifically this sticky
[3] Pandora, just read this; http://www.pandora.com/on-windowsmobile (Point your mobile phone's browser to www.pandora.com)
[4] Incomplete emails Thats just a setting since most people use gprs/hsdpa, im sure you can change it, either somewhere in the settings or trough a registry edit
Though i just have to say/write this, DONT GET ME WRONG but honestly, you shouldn't try to make this like your iPhone, although Microsoft/HTC are clearly trying to 'collect' some iPhone users, overall the HD2 isn't user friendly enough to be a iPhone (yes i sayd it) That doesn't mean you shouldn't stick with the HD2 though, just forget the iPhone
To put some strength behind my 'user friendly' statement, if your ROM is from before 1.66, the HD2 will have quite some silly bugs, like SMS messages that get stuck in the outbox but only (if your lucky) send 3 weeks later, problems with the camera, not beeing able to read/write large miniSD cards & more.
On the other hand, if your in any way IT related or just in general good with computers, this is currently the best phone on the market (counting HD2 and HD2b as one) it does the latest wireless connection methods, has build-in gps, compass and g-sensor, a 1ghz gpu, a 'gpu' (kinda) and more geeky features, and hey, it can emulate most psx games at full speed (www.fpsece.net)
I'd just strongly suggest you to get a new ROM from the HTC site, assuming you have a device with pre 1.66
I hope the above helped a bit, not trying to make windows mobile even more confusing for you, just trying to tell you that it cant really be compared to iPhone/Android, it can be compared to windows, there are actually millions of apps, nobody ever felt the need for a windows marketplace until iPhone got one and Microsoft had to compete, at which they currently fail hard i agree, the windows marketplace thing is a joke, just use google.
Waddup people, I like to ask if Windows Mobile can have ping like blackberry`s do? I mean can we actually install a ping application on Windows Mobile? so that we can also Ping an Blackberry user too? Im really curious about this one.
Thanks for the Time!
Of course! PiNG is standard.

Have fun pinging
Sorry for the late reply but...Uh..that does not seems to be the Blackberry ping messenger....It seems more like the real "Ping" from/for windows platforms...
But anyway I got a full understanding that HTC cannot have it unlike iPhone or android OS got watzzup..Winmo sucks....
Stupid
Iphone sucks, we agree on that
When you say "ping" everyone understand the REAL ping from Windows or Linux or Unix or android lol
If you want to talk about instant messagery and a software called ping, I think you will find more than enough in the Windows Mobile world. Why not try IM+ for exemple.
Do you really use a blackberry ?
