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.

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.

how exactly do i install this? i downloaded it to my computer, i can hook my BB up to the computer via USB. it shows some folders. which do i drop the OZ messenger cab file into?
please help. ive been looking for this for months.
thanks
Forgive me if this sounds stupid, believe I've done a lot of search before asking =/
anyway here it goes:
After flashing the ROM posted in the sticky "Herald MODDing for newbs" I can't find my MSN messenger anywhere. Now I can only use the web version! Where can I get it back? Is a .cab or something out there?
Oh, and, I can't figure out how to use touchflo as well. I tried wiping the screen from bottom to top a LOT times. Nothing happened. Everything else worked, tho, like picture viewer or finger-scrolling.
Here is a zip wich includes the Windows Live Messenger installation CAB file.
Just install it on your device and your done. The settings you need to work through are very easy.
Installation completed with no problem. But..
It doesn't matter whether I'm on wi-fi or GPRS, when I try to sign in it says "Windows Live was unable to establish an Internet Connection." and blah blah blah. Asking me to check my connection settings. Well, IE worked fine. I can surf. So what's going on?
Thx
Thanks been looking for this
Works great on my wing
Have my msn mail on mail lits
next thing i need it how to auto check names on mms works on sms
never mind. I googled aggressively and found that it was an older version of software conflicting with Windows Live Mobile. It was called CE Star. The newest version does not have the connection problem.
Im glad to help you guys. Want anymore cabs ??

I'm glad that you were able to resolve your issue with the Windows Live Mesanger but unfortunately im unable too. I am able to connect via WiFi but im not able to connect GPRS, are you able to connect w/o WiFi? If so, do you have a .cab file or a website that you can direct me too. Any help on this issue would be great. Thanx
It still does not work for me

After uninstall ce-star, I had same problem:
I setup both wi-fi and bluetooth dialup through my cellphone. Even when wi-fi is connected, windows live insist on dialing through bluetooth. And the worst of it, it will keep on dialing until soft reset and nothing else can stop it.
Any idea?
Thanks

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
Hi Guys I was wondering if theres a way to make skyfire the app that opens when you click the internet button in TF3D. Now that it actually works on VGA devices I like using it over opera. Is there any way to do this?
The first time you fire up Skyfire it should ask you if you want it to be default. If you happend to have missed that or it did not come up you can do it manually by Opening Skyfire tapping menu>setting>then checking the box next to "Set Skyfire as Default Browser".
This should work. Make sure you dont have opera installed. If you do opera wont work any longer. When it asks to make opera the fefault browser say NO or your email links will not open anymore. Please post results.

Go to settings/installed programs and uninstall it. If its cooked in wont be so easy. On the stock rom and several cooked roms its cab installed during customization and easy to get rid of.
Is that really a good idea.. Skyfire kills the battery quicker than anything else that ive tried.
I did make it the default browser but that didnt work. I'll try that downloadable fix in a bit. To the person talking about battery life, i didnt really notice that. I would actually be extremely surprised if skyfire used more battery than opera, since skyfire does all the pre-rendering on their servers and not on your phone, making your processor work alot less. did you actually do a true comparison? meaning if you were watching hulu on skyfire and just browsing websites on opera it is probably going to skew the results.

I have to agree tha skyfire is harder on the battery. However, i find it a far more superior browser. Ill gladly trade the battery for it.
Is there anyway to undo this and get opera back as default without having to reinstall the rom? Or Opera Mobile 9.5 beta for that matter.
