MSN/Live Messenger - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

My operator (Orange UK) has decided not to include live messenger in their ROM. Is that something I can install easily afterward? How would I go about doing this? Do I need to app unlock the phone first? I don't have much experience in installing apps on WM6 so any help appreciated.
Thanks

Hey, i work for Orange and have a touch dual also. Im pretty disapointed that the 'Windows Live' services are missing from the dual, but are present on the Touch.
I was referred by a colleague in the web support call centre that he downloaded the file from a link on this site. (Thats why im here) He found it in the TyTn II forum, but the file is compatible on any Mobile 6 platform... if i find it, i shall post the link for you (if its allowed)

hey, thanks for that. It is a bit of a shame how they removed it from this phone.
As you work for orange, do you know if they are planning to introduce any data tariffs like web n walk? I wouldn't mind paying a tenner extra a month if I could get 1GB of data anytime..

Hey! No worries.. im having problems wading through 178 tyTn II pages... the search feature is utterly useless.
Orange has something called 'Anytime internet' on PAYM. Its £8 per month, and inclused 30MB iirc. When it first launced (back in August) it was unlimited usage upto 1GB.
The Wireless Data Card for Laptops tariffs have just been updated to compete with 3's cheap plans, but i hope the new data plans for handsets happens soon.
Although, i get mine all free

I'm on the £8 a month tarriff, but to be honest 30MB doesn't really cut it compared to Tmobile and 3's tariffs.
Would you mind keeping us posted of when you think these tariffs might be upgraded for handsets? You're lucky you get all yours for free!
Now back to MSN Messenger - i've got a feeling we may not be able to install it even if we wanted to ask the phone might be 'app locked', and as far as I know no ones got a hack for that yet.. or I could be wrong..

I found the application on this forum, just tested it and it works on my Orange Touch Dual!

in1234, i will keep you posted.

Right! Iv'e done it!
1. Follow this link HERE and download the Windows Live file to your PC.
2. Connect your device using Active Sync. And use the 'Explore' feature on AC and navigate to you 'My Documents' folder.
3. Disconnect the device and navigate to your documents.
4. Double tap the Windows Live install program. Install the program to your device and its done.
I also added a few other programs from the above link, inc the stand alone Messenger

Go with Fring ! And forget MSN !
www.fring.com voip, multiprotocol messenger and so on...

Raid.

AIM on the Wizard

Ok, so since T-Mobile and Cingular (here in America) want to ban the use of AIM 2.0 on the Pocket PC, and instead, use their service (which charges 10cents an IM), I was wondering if anyone has worked on a hack to fix this.
Basically, both companies have done something to the software, in which when AIM is installed, it will not allow you to sign on. Please note... I am NOT looking for a replacement suggestion for AIM, I am looking for the AIM program itself. There has to be SOME sort of way around this tweak, and I am truly hoping one of the many genius minds that browse this forum would be so kind enough as to help.
do you some sort of error or it just doesnt send
have you tried agile..? it has all the instant messengers
Hello!
This is what I use, and I don't seem to get 10 cents a IM.
Just unzip the cab and transfer it to your device and install!
*Edit* I am in the USA also, just so ya'know.
Agile messenger would be your best bet.
It acts a service and send text messages to your phone instead of the actually message. Just as long as you have a text plan you should be fine.
I prefer Verichat to Agile. The only draw for Agile right now is that it's free, but it's beta. The beta version of Agile likes to crash a lot. Verichat is on th expensive side, but I think it's worth it.
Go here, aol.co.uk and download the aim version for mobile. It's free as compared to installing the EXACT SAME VERSION from the U.S. aol.com which they want $19.99 for. The installer has capabilities for installing on a wide range of pocket pc's, as well as ones with MIPS and ARM processors.
The link once again is aol.co.uk
Good luck!
They charge $20 for that chunk of crap?!? That thing barely functioned under 2003 3 years ago. :lol:

i thought agile uses internet?
I was under that impression also. Then I read around on the internet and people were saying that it does indeed act as a gateway to thier servers and sens txt messages back and forth.
Now after your reply and I checked to make sure, I'm finding both answers...So I'm not sure anymore.

Awesome!! That works amazing!
Is the start bar inverted to get it to work here?
Because I remember trying aim before and the thing wouldn't work right but the start bar wasn't on the bottom like this one.
Is it hacked or something?
Very nice though. Thanks!

My son and I both use Agile on our 8125's with a data plan. Agile useage goes against the kb/data, NOT the text messaging. You have to be connected to the internet to use Agile -- either through WiFi or GPRS.
We've NEVER been charged for text messaging using Agile.
Great! I can cancle my text message plan.

There is but it won't work on WM5...
Unless some one can hack it like that above AIM program to move the WM5 start bar to the bottom when the program is active.
Let me break it down for you gentlemen...
Basically what's been happening (here in the east coast of the US at least) is Pocket PC phones have been becoming increasingly more powerful. Obviously, T-Mobile and Cingular are no dummies to waves, so they started to release some of their own. But in an attempt to garner more money, they've been releasing their own versions of AIM, which basically charge the user a text per message (sent or received). In addition, they basically disabled the old AIM 2.0, which was (and still is) highly popular amongst Pocket PCs that aren't branded, or simply don't have a phone equipped in them.
That button on the button that says "Sign On"? It's not there anymore. Neither is the File or Edit menus. There's something embedded in the registry that doesn't allow the usesr to use this version of AIM... which is why I created this topic to begin with.
Now as I stated originally, I wasn't looking for alternatives to AIM 2.0 on the Pocket PC... I like this version a lot. Back when I was using my unbranded i-mate Jam, I suppose I've gotten inclined to using this version more. I've tried Agile Mobile, but it is still way too buggy for me to want to use as my end-all be-all to AIM. And it's missing a lot of features I've grown used to with AIM 2.0. Other IM clients cost money for something I think should be freely distributed.
To anyone using an i-mate K-Jam, or a QTek 9100... this post simply doesn't apply to you. You picked up your phone unbranded, meaning you have no restrictions from your carrier. And I envy you because of that. But since I'm cheap and I'm getting my Cingular 8125 for $50, I'm trying to figure out some workaround to the situation. Hopefully someone can figure out a hack soon.
MightyMegit ... how certain are you that the program you posted doesn't use texts? Does it use data? I don't have a Wizard yet (hopefully within the next 24 hours), so I'm not able to test it out myself.
Anyway, thanks guys for your help, but I really want my AIM 2.0 back. I wish all you developers luck!!!
thanks for the clarification. i started using the aim 2.0 yesterday.
No wonder i noticed to menus or sign on options. What i do i select "stock quotes" or w.e and that signs me on.
It looks just like aim on pc and has aim sounds so i like the look of it. There just isnt options

Few Questions.

i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only
oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.
so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

No problem, this forum helps noobs period!
With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.
Ah ha quessed it now - backup! I use Spb backup and find it very good - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en
Others use Sprite backup - also very good i believe - http://www.spritesoftware.com/sprite-backup

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade
ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!

Agile Messenger suddenly gone trial

Hey all,
I have been using Agile Messenger since june or so..so far I have downloaded "new version" of the app into my phone twice. The last one is really cool and I have been using it for about two weeks w/o any probs, but when I turned the app on yestreday, it displayed message "Thanks for trying this trial version, you have 7 days left". Is Agile Messenger not free anymore? And if it's not, do you think I could continue using one of the older versions? Thx for any suggestions Longlife
Having the same problem, the subscription fee is pretty high.
Don't know about the old versions...
Eelco
I think I have the old version of Agile. If you guys want, you can try it and let us know if it will work or if we actually have to pay after the trial period.
its not problem its normal agile done same thing with symbian version now they will ask you to pay for windows mobile version. it is undestandable because with agile u use their server but anyway i belive messenger live will be here soon and it will be better than agile, so no need to pay for agile
The old version I had stopped working
I had the old version and had been using that. I started getting messages when I would start it up that a new version was available. I kept saying "no" but eventually after saying that it came back and said I needed to upgrade to the new version if I wanted to continue to use Agile. That's when I finally upgraded, but then when I got the "You have 7 days left" message and looked closer to find that the new version had a monthly charge, I went ahead and removed it from my Universal.
I can somewhat understand them charging for it, and would have been willing to pay a one time purchase fee, or MAYBE a smaller monthly fee, but the rates I saw looked high for just one app. No thanks.

Too bad Thx eveyrone for your answers though I agree that the fees for using Agile are way too high, if it was like 20 USD for the app with all the future upgrades, I would probably buy it but this way... Anyway, just one more question: which free messenger capable of connecting to ICQ would you recommend instead of Agile plz?
No response from Agile
I wrote them a message via the address at the agile website asking if there would be any way to buy the software outright. It has been over a week and there has been no response. I really like the software. I would be willing to pay for it, but I do not like software subscriptions.
I am more bothered by the lack of response to my message though. It shows me that there will be no customer support for a program that they will continue to collect money for.
does the latest version look better on VGA? Still haven't updated my version... They shouldn't charge if it doesn't work well on our devices. I have no problem buyin it as long as it displays properly [I sent agile an email asking about VGA support but did not get a response *no surprises there*]
Good bye Agile
Been using Agile on my Symbian Nokias since 4 years and the same thing happened 2 years ago. Suddenly they asked for monthly subscription of 3 € via SMS or 19 € forever, but locked to the SIM card, I have 4 of them in different countries of Europe so I wrote to them then and they replied like they would let me on all for SIMs but I gave up Nokia as well as Agile on it.
Now I see that they have came up with something even crazier like monthly, HIGH, subscription, charging for the service rather then the software itself!?!
I am sorry, I like Agile very much, but I will never agree to the terms they are asking... and I think that their PPC version is far from ready...
Good bye Agile...
Ok, I tried to find a freeware alternative to Agile Messenger..and guess what? I found one. It's by ICQ.com and it's pretty cool, I didn't fully explore it yet but it seems to offer most of the latest Agile's features. You can download it from here:

I noticed the dl link you provided had icq.com on it here is the english link: http://www.icq.com/download/ftp-pocketpc.html
i don't use icq though and yahoo go for wm5 doesn't have a messenger component [dunno if there will be one]... my problem is most of my im contacts use yahoo.

Does it support hotmail and yahoo?
Can you please also post a CAB file for it?

I'm sorry, as I only use ICQ, I forgot to mention that this app only supports ICQ, not AIM, Yahoo, MSN or anything else..which is a considerable disadvantage compared to Agile as I now see.
About the CAB file - I don't have it and I didn't manage to find it anywhere, but maybe you will
Aynway, I played with the application a bit and discovered that it:
- doesn't support landscape mode (which is pretty sad)
- supports Invisible, Occupied, DND, N/A and Away statuses (without entering custom status messages though)
- works with groups
- allows you to change your account details
- doesn't let you close conversation windows (at least I didn't find a way to do so..but it's pretty weird I'd say )
- has a cool but probably not so useful feature that downloads latest stock-exchange rates
- has VERY ugly smileys (IMO)
But depsite it's several disadvantages, I'd say it still remains a nice (and free) way to chat with your ICQ contacts on the go.
Oh and btw, if you want an all-in-one IM client and are willing to pay, check this: http://mobile.lockergnome.com/product.asp?id=248
It looks pretty good and you can get it for 40 USD for ever, not like with Agile where you have to pay 30 USD every year. It's still too expensive for me though
I've tried Shape IM+ as well it seems nice but my provider has blocked it! Can't connect using 3G/UMTS/GPRS works fine with WiFi and Activesync passthru. Oh I only use the Yahoo component.
thanks for post up the info
new PPC-based freeware ICQ client on the scene!
Ok, so here's another update on the topic
A few days ago, I discovered that QIP (russian closed-source freeware ICQ client; www.qip.ru) had released a PPC version of their program. I have downloaded it straight away and I must say that it's by far the best ICQ client for the PocketPC platform..well..that's just my opinion but I'm pretty sure most people will agree once they try it out It supports most of the PC-based-QIP's functions including various statuses (incl. invisible, invisible for all, custom statuses with pictures and others), several sets of smileys (standard, animated, text), complete contact information etc. etc. Be sure to check it out on www.qip.ru

there was absolutely no point of you telling me that..smh
Can anyone really Help?
didn't feel like starting a new thread, as this one is titled appropriately for my question.
I just got a 8525 a few days ago in my switch to Cingular. I got the 5mb Media 1000 package, however I am getting unlimited for first month.
My question is.. . I installed Weatherpanel on my phone and wondering if data that is being received to update this program is coming from with-in my 5mb, or I am going to get a bill for other data usage?

*SOLVED* Edit Media Net settings in connections on HTC Pure *SOLVED*

I just bought an HTC Pure for my wife. I'm pretty savvy with windows mobile. I have a tilt for my personal phone and I have a touch pro 2 from sprint as my work phone. I work for sprint and troubleshoot Windows mobile phones. My wife doesn't need or want internet on her HTC Pure.
One thing I am not to good with is registry tweaks. When i went to Start|Settings|Connections I noticed that media net is not configurable. As to my tilt, I can edit these settings. I want to be able to Media Net so I can permanently disable internet on her HTC Pure.
I know that AT&T required internet on all newly purchased smart devices. I did not buy this device from AT&T and did not sing a contract stating that I would add a data plan. There are ways to weasel out of paying for data.
Is there a cab file I can install to gain functionality to ed the Media Net settings? If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

OK so I found a program called no data. I guess I was choosing the wrong words to search by.

I don't want to call this solved until I try the program out. My wife is at work right now.
Thanks
I just purchased an htc pure. I've been looking into something like this. Please let me know if this is the answer. The link you posted says this worked untill the incorporation of NETCF 3.5. I have no clue what this means. I am with at&t and am not under contract. Thanks brndnddge
Edit: I installed this version and also tried the file at ModaCo which seems to be updated . Im in file explorer and the only file i can open is the setup.xml. I thought i had to run a cab file? When I click setup.xml it appears to stall with a white screen and does nothing?

Don't extract cab files from your pc. Just transfer it to your device and exexute it there.
