No Windows Live - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
today I got my MDA compact Iv from T-Mobile, which is basically the HTC Touch Diamond.
I was so excited about this new phone and it's new features.
But I missed the Windows Live Messenger, which I need.
So far I used the MDA compact I, which got the old MSN Messenger.
I guess T-Mobile deleted it. Even with Hard reset and reset befor T-Mobile installs it's fancy software there were no Messenger.
Can you help me install it?
Thank you for your help

Idea
Any idea???
A site where to download or the files which I need???

try to setup in email settings a windows_live account first...

it will have been taken out of the ROM.
you can either install a cook rom with it in, or try and find a live messenger cab... i'm sure there is one..

just to make it easy for ya
go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405728
scroll down about 3 roms (its one of the lite ones and there is a link for extra applications)
download that rar file and it will have messenger in it. and it should work fine.

Hey mattie01,
this is the first messenger running on my device. Alle the cabs from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621 didn't work.
The messenger starts not, but I can't log in.
I still can't creat a live mail account. When I click sign in messenger says, that there is a connectivity problem, even if a connection is open.
I hate T-Mobile for deleting it!

This one worked for me on a dutch MDA compact IV:

Msn issue.... no connection...

Hi !!
edited from another thread....
I am enjoying my Kaiser very much, but still got some problems....
Any advice is always welcome !
When I first used my TyTn II, after charging, I logged on to MSN with no problems. Haven't used MSN since....
I don't think the Vodafone signal is so good where I live but I can usually connect to the Internet using Explorer or Opera, but I can't seem to make MSN connect.
I was in the city centre today where the signal should be strong but MSN still would not connect.
It does not give an error message, just that I might be in an "area with bad reception".
Vodafone tell me my services are all OK for my phone...
If I use WiFi at home, I still cannot connect MSN using WiFi
I am not sure where to begin to diagnose the problem with MSN. I will start searching now........ but any advice is appreciated...
edit... I am wondering whether to unistall MSN and re-install
Any advice appreciated!
Ofiaich
I would re-install MSN with the latest version, and try again...
found in the sticky.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=377
Hi Jewcookie!
thanks ! I downloaded frm here and will check that it is the latest..
It is WLM Build 1400 ....
But are there any other solutions?
Ofiaich
would this installed version of MSN use data or TXT message allotment?
Hi,
i read in another thread that it is data,,
Ofiaich
Hi!
can anyone think of good reasons why my MSN stopped working, and what i can do about it?
I would rather try to sort out the problem, than just install another version..
Ofiaich
are you using windows live messenger or are you using OZIM or another IM program?
I know with OZIM, since it uses text it doesn't connect when you are on wifi.
I was using the MSN thatis built into the ROM!!
Ofiaich
I know you are in UK and things are different but the IM program built into the rom for me was OZIM which uses texting. I would suggest to go the sticky of useful cabs and download Windows Live, thats has Live Messenger Built into it.

Are you asian?
I know that some olders versions of CE-stars could lead to malfunctioning of live messenger=/ so even if you aren't azn if you install language support for other languages it might still screw things up
Thanks jallenclark and season007,
My Kaiser has Windows live and MSN, but not working..
I am Irish, but I have Japanese display and input installed on my Kaiser...
I guess I could remove them and see if my MSN works again..!!
Then if it does not work, install the newest cab for Windows Live and MSN..
Thanks...
Ofiaich
Hi!
removing Japanese fonts and input did not resolve the problem....
I really do not understand why my MSN does not connect... when Agile Messenger does...
edit - I did a hard reset and installed everything from scratch, checking one by one, if MSN worked.
It stopped working after the installing of Japanese dispaly and input software...
Ofiaich
so any way to make MSN and CE Star works together ?

no msn/live messenger on tmobile Vario III?

has anyone else got a vario III and noticed that there is no msn/live messenger installed? is there a legit way of getting this on there?
also, when viewing text messages, can i replace the function of the left soft key - its currently set to delete, but on the previous vario II it was new - so i find myself constantly trying to delete messages when trying to write a new one. and its also a friggin pain in the ass to go through the menu selection to start a new text....
any help is much appreciated guys..
A couple of minutes with the forum search function will answer all your questions.
i did try and search it but can't find the answers to these few things... have found other stuff though that has been useful..
edit: i've found a cab for WLM, but still cant resolve the soft key issue in messaging... so if anyone knows... !
Im also looking for this anyone?
Toilet-Duck, Windows live mobile is available here - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Software/

Theres been a windows live cab uploaded on coolsmartphone.com
Heres the link for the thread: http://www.coolsmartphone.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11696
And heres the link for the direct download (off megaupload.com)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WSEQT0ZN
Word of warning, when I installed this app on my phone, it worked fine. However, downloading this app will install both, what seems to be an outdated version of windows live, and also windows messenger onto your phone (well with me it did anyway). But when I decided I didn't want it anymore on my MDA Vario III and tried to uninstall it, the app still remained on my programmes list, but faded out- kind of like if you were to click on a document on your computer, and click on 'cut'.
This problem meant I had to hard reset my device to get rid of any trace of windows live messenger.

http://modmydiamond.info/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
and applying this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407572
not sure about the Messenger cab, but i'm sure you can find a version on this site!
Black Manila theme here:
You Tube app is missing and a CAB is needed desprately. Can anyone help?
no response?
So I guess you compact IV owners dont want the You Tube and Windows Live Messenger apps?
Are you loking to just de-brand?
Have you applied the balck manilla yet? any good?
Mine has just arrived to just having a play... the browser is unreal!

Applying Black Manilla works just fine. However start menu is still T Mobile white. Even beaming across the original HTC Black theme and choosing that makes no difference.
However Im looking for Windows Messenger (the latest CAB on this forum didnt work) and You Tube App.
hmm i thought the start menu was just part of the theme file...
skin
I want to thank the poster of the manila theme!
I was Looking for this theme, cause the T-mobile theme with the pink logo's was so girlish
Also for other installers, during the install every thing went fine till it restarted. I looked like the phone started correctly, i heard bleeping and it shaked, but the screen was gray with borders.
After that I thought I messed something up, and tried a soft reset, after that it worked like a charm!
ok after lots of atempts i think i have got my compact to a state where you could call it de-branded??
i have got the black manilla theme from the diamond which is allot better than the pink and white! i have got windows live with messenger installed and working nicely, and i have finally managed to get the youtube app on it aswell, so apart from that is there anything else which needs to be changed software wise??
anyone else had any success with this? i know i could just flash another rom but i really want to stay under warranty
Cheers guys
Care to Share...
How You did it... step by step.
Speaking of warranty, I’m in the same boat. I got no issues of changing the ROM as long as I can get back if I need to.
We really need a copy of the T-Mobile Stock ROM!
i would also be very interested in knowing which version of messenger you got to work and where you located it
I know i can flash a different rom but don't really want to until a copy of the original t-mobile rom is available, just in case i need to revert back for warranty purposes.
how i installed Windows Live Mobile...
Okay guys bare with me and let me know if you have any success with this.....
firstly for Windows Live Mobile, i have tried loads of different cabs to get this working, but this has seemed to work for me,
1) install "Windows Live install 1st.cab" then soft reset, once you reset you will have windows live installed but there will be no messenger this should be fine if you just want hotmail.
*****make sure you dont uninstall the 1st cab! they both need to be on at the same time to work!*****
2) install "Windows Live install 2nd.cab" and again soft reset, once you reset you will have all of windows live including messenger just as it is on the stock diamond rom same version im pretty sure!
Windows live is now good to go! over wifi it will sync flawlessly, over gprs/3g it will be hit and miss, as it has been on every other device with wm6, Windows live mobile and T-mobile, i always get my emails however it will sometimes show a sync error aswell. (let me know how you get on here because i have had this connection issue with my last couple of phones!)
i take no credit for any of these files, they are already on this forum and i thank the guys who uploaded them first time around!
Original TouchFLO....
To get the original colours back into touchFLO i used the theme which was posted earlier in this thread on the first page, this does take up about 9mb of space though! however looks far better than the pink and white!
to change the start menu picture go to Start>Settings>System>TouchFlo and de-select 'Enable Large Start menu' this will then give you what ever themes your using start menu, however it wont be as large!

How did you get the you tube app to work?
There is a youtube VGA cab on this forum, which installs - however whenever you attempt to play a video there is an error message
Finally Youtube!
this was the most annoying one!
okay to install this...
1) Install "AdobeFlashLite.cab" this may or may not be required? however i installed it and everything works fine! maybe someone could try with out this and see if it still works.
2) install "HTC YouTube install 1st.cab" this will install the youtube app however it is a qvga version and looks rough on the awesome vga screen and everything is all over the place, however still works fine.
3) unzip the contents of "HTCYouTubeVGA install 2nd.zip" to your \Windows\ directory ensuring the files do go into the windows directory and not into another folder inside the windows directory i.e \Windows\HTCYou... you will be promted if you want to overwrite some files, you have to overwrite all of the existing 200 or so files!
4) do a soft reset for luck and you will now have the full youtube app aswell! exactly the same as on the diamond, i cant remember if i had to create the shortcut to the youtube app myself or if the cab did it, if you have to do it yourself the application is called youtube.exe and is in the \Windows\ folder!
Again all of these files have already been uploaded by others elsewhere in the forum! i have just got them all together, so a big thankyou to all of those members!
let me know your results
Cheers
I also did change the "on-pink" in the connection manager, this was on a dutch t-mobile device but it will probally also work on uk-versions. Just put these 2 files in the windows map with total commander or some other file manager.
Another thing I did was a hard reset and just before the branding kicks in a soft reset. You'll get a pretty clean phone, only some programs aren't installed like tf3d. For tf3d I downloaded the black manila from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408843&highlight=boinger66+black. Opera is also not installed so I will also try to install this from the same thread and give it a go.
Also you can remove the t-mobile connection button on the tf3d interface by using removing globe.cab from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406681
Cheers to craigwn for the windows live messenger and youtube posts - all cabs installed straight away and with a soft reboot between each one, now both apps work great!
One small thing - I installed the youtube, wlm and then the manila theme and have just realised all my contacts have disappeared. Not sure which one of these have done it (or a combination) as I didn't check in between, but will just get them back via activesync so no problem.

i think this may have something to do with wlm, if you choose to sync contacts, it messes with the phones contacts aswell! just uncheck the option to sync contacts in the future.

Yahoo Go! on Diamond not working...

Has anyone been able to install Yahoo Go! 3 beta on their Diamond?
When I install the cab the text keeps over-writting itself (perhaps I don't have the the correct cab for Diamond??) Ican sort off "fudge" it but it still bounces me out and shuts down...very frustrating
Anyway, if someone has a cab that works correctly I would appreciate a share...
Thanks
Nobody using Yahoo Go 3
I have the same problem.
Yahoo go 3 a no go for me.
Me too, slow and weird overwriting text. Gave up with them and support didn't want to know.
Same problem here; its a pity because Yahoo! Go is such a good package. Hope Yahoo or HTC will do something about it soon.
I will routinely keep downloading the latest CAB's (if I can find 'em) and trying installs....they're bound to get it right somtime......aren't they?!?!?
Java ME Issue?
Hi Folks,
I've the same problem on my O2 XDA Diamond, too.
IMHO it's not a problem of Yahoo Go! but the Java ME on the Diamond.
Has anybody tried to use any other Java ME JRE on the Diamond?

Actually it is not the JRE. The one supplied with the diamond is Sun Certified so should be allright.
The problem is the Yahoo Go! application which uses a .net java-hack dll thingie. This dll is in effect a midlet wrapper for .net and simply is not working very well.
In other words: it is (as per usual) a Microsoft problem.
anyone get this to work? its as if its the wrong size? it just doesnt work right after instasll
Because Yahoo Go! is still not supported for our HTC Diamond as yet.
Hello,
as today any update ?
Yahoo go beta 3
Even i had the same problem after installing new ROM upgrade. but after uninstalling it completely from my HTC Diamond (even remove folder from /program files/yahoo go) I again downloaded it from yahoo website and installed. Now its working properly.
Error is because we uninstall program but system folder is not deleted.
Try this. May ur problem get solved.

Windows LIVE Messenger

I've searched all over for a working solution to the LIVE Messenger app that comes stock in some phones. I had Dutty's fixed version on my Tilt, but noow that I just got my new Touch pro today, It wont open... Other solutions had me install the official with no IM, then install a diffrent cab with messenger, but messenger wont connect to save my life...
Anyone have an actual working solution that isnt IM+... I really like the real app...
I was going to make a cab of the latest version of Live + Messenger that i've seen, but I saw someone already had in a search on xda.. search for "10.6.42.1900" you should find it..
Well I did find that particular release, and no go... it installs, but won't launch... Brand new phone too... still running the stock rom.. could it be a VGA thing?
I'm using this on My HTC Fuze and it works fine.
Hi HTCFAN0923,
This one worked in my ATT Fuze.
Thanks a lot.
