Thats what I use, the only thing that bugs me is you cant have more then one chat window open at a time. It would work a lot better if it used a tab system.

Your problem involves your restrictions as far as your plan goes. You can try the proxy work around.
is there anyway you can give me the link that helps me get around that?

I'm interested in this too -- and would appreciate learning the pros/cons because I know that some people really don't like Oz. However I also have unlimited messaging, so SMS charges aren't an issue at all for me if the functionality is there.
Anyway - I just found the Oz cab here. Just takes a bit of looking. Go to the FTP site here and into the Wizard\Extended_Roms sub dir:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Extended_Roms
Download the "TMo-US-Ext Rom.zip". Inside you'll find all the CAB files, including what appears to be the Oz install.
I downloaded this, and have the files -- just want to verify that all we need to do is drop the Cab into the MDA (Wizard) and run it to install. Anyone else try this yet?
thanks alot, jon. i did do some ALOT of searching on my own but i didnt really know where to look. i appreciate the help.
i just installed oz and it works like a charm. so thanks alot. -tommy

tommy - great! I imagine that it doesn't use any "main storage" (working RAM) when it's not running, does it? As long as there's no downside in having it installed, other than using up space, I'm ready to try it. It would really be nice to have a full-fledged instant messaging client again on the phone. When Agile is ready, I'll probably go that way, but I'm not ready to deal with "alpha" level issues right now...
where can find the one with MSN?
Thanks
Well, this DOES use your SMS texts you know, not data. If you want one that uses data, goto palringo.com, its freeware, and supports AIM, YIM, MSN, ICQ, GT and many more.
Yes i know OZ uses SMS, I like it cuz I can still get my messages if i don't get reception.
I heard the new one has MSN but i can't find it.

Hello I did a search for it but can not find it for the life of me. I am using a WM6 Rom but would really like to get the T-Mobile OZ Communicator application installed on it, but can't find it anywhere.
Can someone help??

Why do you want to use OZ? There are better ones by far available...
--M
i figured because it was free and it worked with a majority of IM clients.
if you know of a better one please let me know
download the tmobile extended rom and expand it and get the cab file for it.

Please let me kno of a better 1 than OZ? ... I've spent months testing different message clients and haven't found 1 that works as good
Verichat - Needs to B set 2 "always on" (which kills the BATT) or U will have connection issues. The SMS feature is not workin anymore so when talkin on the phone messages get lost.
IM+ - connection issues when using the phone or NOT usin the phone
Agile - letz not go there ... it went from coolest IM app 2 the Sh!++iest client out ..
At least OZ is alwayz connected ... It might B slow but I never lost a message yet ...

Here you go. Keep in mind that OZ uses test messages to send IMs.

I have also used it with no issues. Maybe its in your settings.
Hi, I am new to this forum.
I have a question, I just got my Kasier a weeks ago.... before I have a T-Mobile Wing
I try to set up my phone to use the T-Zone
I can get it work, but I cannot get the IM thing working though the T-Zone.
I do install the Agile Messenger & IM+ both of them only can use it on the wifi when i at home...... any way i can use those program when i use t-zone?
I only pay 5 dollars per month......for the T-zone.
ANy info or suggestion will be help.....
As far as I know, T-zones only allows you to use certain ports. Now the IM client might be using other ports that are blocked. For more information on what ports are enabled or not, go here: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/T-Mobile_Data

If you want to use AIM, in IM+ change the AIM port to 110. Then IM+ should work over T-Zones.

so i got my skyfire beta, but it doesnt seem to work with the tmobile proxy hack. my opera, IE, google maps, and everything still work (except weather panel, that worked for a while and now has stopped a couple weeks ago?) i get the lost connection message after it starts up, any ideas?

i'm in the same boat as you...its useless if there arent any network configurations...sorry to go off topic, but do you have an aim program that works with the hack?
no problem, I dont use aim, so i dont know of any. but i thought i heard of a website that had alot of different im clients embeded into the browser, so if you went there with opera, or PIE it might work, hope that helps (also hope that exists)

yeah i know of one that exists through the browser, but its so terrible...
palringo of course. theres some simple reg editing but all can be found on this, our great site.
but all in all palringo is the best. you'll see.
hmm, yes palringo is nice! although it disconnects so often here...
but btt: i´d love to TEST skyfire... but it doesnt connect through the active sync connection... (i´m using the niki, so no wifi ) how could i get it working?
sorry if im wrong posting it here.
For AIM, you could use Palringo or EQO, both can be setup to work with t-mobile's t-zones / t-mobileweb. EQO has a Today plugin, if that makes a difference to you.
Okay I did some searching but really can't pick which Instant Messenger to download for Kaiser/Tilt... I had Parlingo for my old HTC S710 which was good... but after reading some post is there anything out there that is top notch?

Palringo is the best balance of power management/features.
Beejive messenger is also very nice, but it sucks the battery down right now. It is still in beta right now.
IM+ is also a decent messenger app.
does anyone know of an instant messegner that works over wi fi?
They should all work as well over Wifi as over GSM connection.
so Palringo for the win???? lol.. so what does everyone use? time to list! hehe

Oz is the only one i know that doesn't actually, all the ones i mentioned will work via wifi
I like octrotalk it works with AIM, Yahoo, Google, MSN etc. Its nice and doesn't eat up much resource or power and its FREE.
http://www.octro.com/
Fring!!! i love it! works with all the IM's (and skype)
http://www.fring.com/
yes another instant messenger topic...anyways, palringo is still the best out. i just wish meebo would hurry up and release a version for windows mobile. its stupid when you think about it that they released a version for the ipod touch and iphone, but wont release it for winmo...which still has a HUGE handset market share. yes, i'm still pissed.
wap.whizzper.com
works thru Java, but pretty nice app. doesnt support landscape very well!
Fring Is Awesome
Try fring from fring.com.
Supports voice +chat for the most of the messengers with multiple id support.
Its light weight works over wifi, 3g and GPRS.
Thanks
Pankaj
Fring is nice, but unfortunately it fails on most WM6.1 ROMS. They're aware of it and say they're "working on a solution"
Palringo???
I have the latest version of Plaringo (with the location "feature"), but it only works over wi-fi. What do I need to do to get it to work over t-zones gprs?

It seems you can have audio/video chat with it.
Can you confirm it?

I've noticed that Palringo won't initiate a connection itself for some reason (at least on my ROM), and won't "pick" it if connected after Palringo was launched. I need to do something like check e-mail first so that the phone connects to GPRS, then I can open Palringo and it's OK. But it still disconnects and reconnects once in a while for no reason, and I hate the "close chat" on the right softkey. I happen to hit it by mistake way too often and closing the window when I still have messages to read. Same goes with OK button/the X button, so it's hard to minimize without closing the window (need to either use the red key to go back to Today screen or switch tasks with a task manager).
Jivetalk hands down for me. The only problem with it is that they haven't updated in months which is kind of annoying especially because the program has so much potential.
beejive is the best i've had so far love it use it erryday =] it looks wonderful fast and it has a good interface very smooth
Best Instant Messenger
i would def have to say jivetalk BY FAR. it shows if someone is on mobile. shows full away messages. lets you setup custom away messages. ichat bubbles and sounds. tells you if the person is idle. lets you customize sounds, vibrates,. etc. ONLY thing is it drains out my battery in 3 hrs!
Jivetalk / bejive ftw... Fring is ugly and slow, palringo doesn't support groups (one group for all msn users and all my icq groups)....
and btw. wow, 3 hours o0 my kaiser runs a whole day with bejive logged in.
Slick is the best for me... www.lonelycatgames.com
