No Windows Live

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:

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.

Windows Live Messenger

I have jus spent 4 hours trying to get a version of windows live messenger to install and work on my phone.
I have just bought a MDA compact IV on t-mobile and it is running WM6.1
I've downloaded various files and some of the cab files will install but won't launch the app, and others just won't install.
Is there a version of windows messenger or third party app that will install directly onto a standard phone?
I been reading about changing roms ect, but could see a clear guide that would give me the confidence so as not to turn phone into a brick! I would prefer to leave phone standard for now!
Cheers
Andy

Excellent, all installed and working.
When I have more time I will certainly be having a closer look round this forum!
Thanks for your help

hello beermonster
can i ask you what did you exactly install to let messenger work properly.
I have exactly the same problems as you had, í've tried seferal versions off Windows live mobile, the latest one ( version 10.6.0034.0800 ) has messenger installed, but nothings happens when i click on the messenger-icon in "programs". Did you did a Rom update?

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.

does anyone have a working cab for fring on kaiser?

Hi everyone. I downloaded fring from their site and installed it. the application opens half way and then hangs. i would appreciate your help. thanks

I use fring almost everyday and have used it on many different roms. This is the cab that I use for it. I've uploaded it to my online drive. This link will be active for a week after that it will expire.
I hope it works for you.

the link is bad
can you post the cab? or send me another link? thanks

I just downloaded Fring from their site the other day and it works fine with my set-up. To tell you the truth though I been using slick from www.lonelycatgames.com and it seems to use less resources and has a better UI in my opinion.

The current version has problems with some WM6.1 ROMs. They are aware of it, but aren't officially supporting 6.1 yet.

I've got the stock ROM as well, and have tried installing it twice with no luck. It acts like it is trying to connect but never does. Palringo works fine, but I wanted to try this out because everyone seems to like it. I guess I'll wait until they get the 6.1 issues ironed out.

same problem here on htc diamond 6.1
it gets stuck in loading..

Got the cab and installed on my tilt and g/f touch diamond. She has the default rom which came with it. My Tilt has now gone back to Orange default rom.
Fring seems to work fine so far on both although we have yet to use all the options and at present, only use the messanger part.
