Since I've done a hard reset, I can't seem to log onto MSN Messenger. It just says sign-in failed, however if I ever an incorrect username and pasword combination, it'll tell me it's wrong.
Any ideas how to rectify this guys?
i get it if im already logged into msn on another machine, it takes 3/4 attempts sometimes others it dosent work at all,
but if i disconnect myself from msn before logging in on JJ it works straight away

Hi, I use my MSN quite abit but have noticed that even when I have left my phone on, logged in to MSN, when I revisit it later I notice that I've either been logged off or that I apear logged on but am not, and when I go to change my status I can't and have to log back in again.
I've installed the latest MSN update and have not tried or tested for this since. I just wonder if this is a common problem as I want to run my website support through this service butcan't if I keep getting cut off.
Thanks
Paul.
I gather you're using Pocket Version of MSN Messenger Service on Xda II? Well, as I do not know exactly your network setup, I could suggest a few reasons why MSN logs you off.
1) If you're on USB passthrough or WiFi, and if the phone is set to turn off if not used for a certain minutes - You MSN will lose connection when your device's power is turned off.
2) There's another session probably on your desktop PC loggin in, that logs you out from the Pocket session.
3) MSN server disconnection.
However, I think #1 is the usual suspect.
Also, if you answered a call, you'll lose your GPRS connection, and MSN will disconnect...
The thing I hate about it? If someone sent you a message, and you have not read it yet - but got disconnected, it dissappears. =(
I've since swiched to Agile Messanger; only thing I dont' like about it is I can't 'mark' text to copy & paste somewhere else...
Hi
Apologies for this, but I thought it better to bump this post than start a new thread asking about it again. Basically I get the exact problem as orininally described.
When connected on GPRS, I sign on to MSN Messenger. In under 5 minutes of idle activity I have been disconnected from MSN, but unless I attempt to open a conversation or change my status it is not evident. Even after several hours the contact list is still visible as if I am still connected. When I tap a contact that appears online to start a conversation, MSN then realises its offline and drops back to the sign-in screen.
If I am constantly using MSN, such as having a lengthy conversation, MSN stays online.
I can confirm that during the idle time when MSN does disconnect, GPRS is constantly connected and has not been interrupted by a call. MSN does not seem to be very useful on my phone unless I want an immediate conversation, otherwise within a few short minutes its offline.
From the looks of things MSN does not appear to be sending a ping out to keep its connection alive when idle, and just stays in a dead state until used again... thus the MSN server disconnects it. Is there any way to fix this behaviour or is there no such problem if I switch to Agile Messenger?

Can someone help me to get MSN messenger to work?
I did hear that it only works if you have a GPRS connection but I want it to work with WLAN.
Is there a way around this?
A Search on this forum didn’t reveal anything or I did something wrong to get it.

hi, have my msn working via WLAN without any problems - what error msg's are you getting??
Hi,
It takes a wile before I get an error message and it looks like messenger is hanging.
After about 2 minutes it says "logon to msn messenger service failed because the service is not responding. Please try again later".
But if I use IE then I can log in.
Cheers,
Drifter
That could be because MSN is being typically slow - i quite often have the same problem. However, since enabling wireless G it has become more stable.
If you can get IE over wireless then i think you have a software / hardware problem - just a MS one :wink:
This can also happen if you do not have "Connects to Internet" checked in your work network setting. Check this and other Work / Internet list boxes and have a play ... it took me a while with the same problem but sorted it eventually.
Thanks for the tips but everything seems to be in order accept for MSN messenger.
If I check my firewall I can see that my wizard does connect to the internet.
My firewall logs says that it’s trying to connect to services.mobile.msn.com.
Hopefully it isn't the test rom I'm using
is anyone else having trouble connecting today/tonight?
it says that the service cannot be reached, my friend also tried to connect under his account and it said the same thing, it was working fine the other day.
Have you guys had this problem? I am up to date with windows live. Occasionally, it says it is connected but it isn't, and i know this because none of the contacts come online or offline and signing off does nothing... I have to soft reset to get it to work again. Also on a related note, after that when I try to sign in at home on my PC, MSN keeps signing in and then disconnecting instantly. I do not know if there is any correlation... This only started happening in the past few days...
Hmmm i downloaded AgileMessenger and was able to log in properly. Afterwards my desktop messenger started working and has stay connected again... Interesting....
Whenever I try to sync my facebook contact, I get a connection error, and it says I have no friends. I have tried reseting phone, new card, factory reset, trying to sync while connected to my wifi at my house. Anybody have any suggestions?
I hate to ask the obvious, but are you able to connect to anything else that uses data? What happens if you try going to facebook.com in the Browser. Does the Friend Stream pickup your fb feeds?
I just tried on mine and everything went smoothly. I would try what fermunky said.
