[Q] In need of a new IM chat app, any suggestions? - General Questions and Answers

I'm currently looking for anew IM app that works via data and can also be installed on a blackberry as well as android. At the moment I'm using ping chat but I'm finding it quite useless as it's not working as well as it used to.
So has anyone got any suggestions that I could try?
Cheers in advance

SONOS controller ?

Hi,
has anyone ever thought about developing a program for controlling SONOS via the pocketpc ? Should be pretty obvious, but I've searched the web without luck
Thanks for any info,

Somethings available for you!
There is VersaZones Mobile that is available which allows you to do this.
Version 3.0 seems to be having some trouble running on teh latest phones so you will need to test to see if it works.
Search for "VersaZones Mobile" in google and you will find the good links - I guess it is freeware.

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.

[Q] Say what? Wi-fi internet sharing for Windows Mobile 6.5?

Hi everyone. I've been hearing mention of some sort of Internet Sharing application or addon to the comm manager, that would allow me to turn my phone into some sort of hub. I'd like to be able to use my phone's connection with my iPod Touch, (or perhaps, other devices), so my searching is what has lead me here.
However, I don't really know what the "defacto" modification is for getting this capability. I've seen several threads already. Also, they seem to lack in documentation. They come in cab files - would that mean I can just download and install from my phone right away?
So if anyone can recommend me a wifi sharing app, (preferably for the HTC Ozone), I would be very grateful.

Auugghh. The website logged me out, so I lost my entire post
Anyhow, I'll try and re-write what I had last time:
So I'd like to use 0.9.1, since it seems to be the last free version. I downloaded it and installed it ok, but I have no idea how to use it past that. Could you possibly link me to a guide, or detail it in here?
Well, I gave in at the airport and just downloaded the trial.
Very nice. I'm so glad that I can use a browser that was a least half thought out (safari mobile) rather than that Intermet explorer. What a waste of my unlimited data plan that would have been.
Although, I'd like to be able to use that free version of WMWifi if I could. So does anyone happen to have a guide for it?

[Q] Bell TV & Radio - Problem connecting to service

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S running Criskelo v75 Rom. I recently ordered Bell's mobile variety package through the Bell self serve app. I noticed then that my Rom didn't have the stock TV & Radio app. After doing some digging I finally found the apk, but any time I try to use it, I'm thrown an error reporting a problem connecting to the service, reinstalled many times. When I try to change the account info, I'm thrown an error saying there was a problem logging in using the credentials provided. I can log in with the exact same credentials on the website.
Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it? Or am I doing something wrong? Any help is appreciated!

HTC Wildfire S same issue
I am having nearly the same problem, but I have an HTC Wildfire S, and my data plan includes 10 hours of mobile TV free. The app came with the phone, but I get errors or the message, "the content is not available at this time".

Chat Programs

Hey guy's I just got a note for Christmas, this is my first android device so I'm still trying to figure everything out. To the question, when I'm on my PC I use the chat program Pidgin so that all of my chat programs are integrated into one. I was curious if there is a similar app for the note? I did some googling and got a ton of hits so I wasn't sure which one would be the best option. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
personally i use IM+... but you may also try imo and ebuddy...
