[Q] Need a chat app, that is NOT palringo - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Palringo straight up sucks. as of right now it has been "Logging in" for 3 hours, tried rebooting phone, checked connection etc etc.. Of course there is no visual cue that you have a message,(blinking LED) or when you are disconnected.
it sucks, i hate it, want something, anything else.
tried to get ebuddy, cant, says its not authorized or something to that effect..
is there ANY program out there (other than junkringo) that works on this phone? without having to do any mods BS to get it to work?

I take it you're not looking for MSN then?

something that DOES NOT use sms to send and recieve yahoo chat messages.

How about this. Not the most obvious thing in the world I suppose, but I thought of it...

Wow, thanks for the smartass answer an all..
but have you even tried to install it on an HD2?
hmm?
does your say " 'ymsgr-ppc' is not a valid pocket PC application"
maybe i should google it.
mmm... yea, well it says its for winmo5.. so I googled the HD2 and found it with google, it uses winmo6.5 and then googled again and could not find where it said that app supports winmo6.5.... but I did find where it said it does not support 6.1 but maybe it skipped 6.1 because it wasnt cool, or didnt use google enough... hmm
maybe i should google some more.
too bad i cant get it to work too, what with a rockin rating of 2/10 i think you managed to google up the one chat app that might suck worse than palringo..

At least I tried, which is more than you could be bothered doing.

Couple of options
BeeJive for WM 6.5 works, but is no longer being supported. It's in permanent beta and every once in a while their servers go down for a few days.
You can get the ebuddy java app to work. You need to install Mighty's Photon jBlend java app on your HD2, then you can get java apps to install fine. I don't have a link handy but you can find it on XDA.
Try BeeJive first, if it's working, it's really good.

I'm currently running Core 2.0n

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...

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.

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.

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?

Write message by Voice

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.

Tellme Application for the HD2

Hi Guys,
Just wanted everyone to know there is a free app called:
http://www.tellme.com/you
Its like Microsoft Voice Command.....maybe it is....maybe its whats included in the new WP7S, however its an app that works on 6.5 and its great, fast and I actually like it.
Take a look and watch the video too.
got a cab of it?
Right, It's USA only... HD2 isn't even on the list and not downloadable on that website.
So whats this post all about?
There is a cab available, it does work on the HD2, to a certain extent. It's from the Samsung Intrepid, which I believe is a non-touchscreen phone, so touchscreen doesn't work properly (and we don't have arrow keys to compensate).
The program promises a lot, but delivers poorly. The voice recognition is quite poor (on my Scottish accent anyway). It can dictate a text message, but you'll be lucky if it picks up anything you're saying correctly.

Thats true it doesnt work properly with non-american accents. I tried to search for La Tasca, it came back with a resualt of blackass.com ???????
I had to speak slow, but it did work eventually.
Out of interest, do anyof you have a cab for Microsof Voice Command ? I have the 1.6 version however it doesnt work on my HD2

Make sure you use the corect MVS, i used 1.6 and it killed phone, not responsive to anything so hard reset saved me.
It actually requires MVS to work correctly but as others mentioned, its not good. Unlike the Youtube demo, it barely recognised what i say on several occasions and i spoke very cleary, slow and with no strong accent etc. Needs alot more work.
does not work at all on my hd2
i installed it and it loaded initially, then when i try to start it, it doesnt come up at all. i tried to install a new version of microsoft compact framework or whatever but then the phone will tell me i have to remove the previous version ,but then i obviously cant b ecause it does not appear in the remove programs list. this is very frustrating, can anybody help me?

Only worry about a newer version of .Net if you're actually told by an application that you need it. Also, when installing something and it tells you you need to remove the existing version, that means it's already installed. The .Net 3.5 installation will not tell you you need to uninstall .Net 2.0, so you've already got the version you tried to install. Just forget about it.
I believe it needs MSVC to work, although I'm not sure. I think I had to install MSVC.
I've never installed it since, since it was so crap - I have a very neutral accent, and even tried an American accent, but it was still pish.
i have it on my TP2......it suuuucks and my accent IS american, lol.
btw, it will put asterisks in place when you use curse words, haha, at least it recognizes them with no problem, go figure!
I tried to send a text message, it got everythin right, but the message just sat in my outbox ...
Anyone else try this??
Marty
i just noticed that 'translation', blackass.com, lol. i wonder what you would have got if you DID ask for blackass.com! :O) ahhh, technology, more fun than the proverbial barrel of monkeys at times!
better this , voice ommander or something else? just to understand the maerket now
works great on my tmobile htc hd2
Oh, I hate TellMe so much I want to scream. I've managed to successfully use it on two occasions (where it actually understands what I've said). More often than not, it simply "thinks" and "thinks" until, ultimately, saying "Sorry, didn't catch that". I don't doubt that it works great for some people, but for this thick-accented outer-Bostonian, TellMe is an exercise in futility (and definitely not an app to break out to show off the HD2's power!!).

I'm having the same problem.
I downloaded the TellMe application for HD2 at mobile underground
I have installed the WMPPC_TP_TP2_HD2.cab on my device and the application runs but when I send a text message the message appears to send ok but then gets stuck in my outbox. The message stays there until I send a text the old fashion way and then all the text messages are sent out.
The instructions on the mobile underground website say to make sure you have .NET CF 3.5 version:
*TELLME*: Install NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab.zip first on your WM PPC, before installing the TellMe App, get it here media..fire...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But, I when I tried to install this I received a message saying I already had a newer version. See screen shot showing my 3.5.9198.0 version of the .NET Compact Framework. So, I'm assuming I have a newer version that should work with the TellMe but so far I have been unable to get it to send text messages properly.
Also, I'm running Voice Command v1.6.21889 , which came on the phone originally.
Has anybody else had this problem? Anybody know of a solution?
I have two T-Mobile HD2's sitting here with this installed, all work fine, except the same outbox issue on texts. I wonder what could be the issue or if there was some way to trigger the sending automatically.
I have an idea but not sure how to make it happen.
Obviously the TellMe application is only composing the message and putting it in the outbox.
So, the HTC Messaging should be able to periodically tell that a message is waiting or simply just try to send messages every now and then. After looking at the option in the Settings->Options while you are in the message application you can see that there are 4 options for Delivery: Immediate, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week.
I wonder if there was a way to set the delivery at 1 second if it wouldn't try to send the message. This is just an idea and I'm not very experienced in customizing phones but I do some programing and could see this as a possibly.
____
The other option would be to write a small program that would check the outbox and send any messages in it. Then you could use voice command or tell me to run the program by creating a short cut the this small program and calling it "Send Messages" or something like that.
Anybody have comments or suggestions on either of these ideas?

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?

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
