try meebo . . .

2 opinions right now
Meebo vs eBuddy ^^
more opinions please?

ebuddy for sure

I use Meebo for one reason. I select and save all my accounts while online. Now they are all accessible on my cell (facebook, msn, aol, ect). The reason this is so good is because even if I remove the app, my settings are saved on their site, so I do not have to keep configuring programs. Never used any others on android.

I have found eBuddy to be very nice. I use Trillion on all my pc's and lappy's and eBuddy is very similar for my Hero.
I didn't care much for Meebo however.
U can find eBuddy in the Android Market, search: eBuddy
Enjoy Mate!!

Have tried meebo, ebuddy, msn, nimbuzz, and one or two others
ebuddy is my preferred one, seems to be the most reliable and online most of the time even when not on a great data conenction
nimbuzz is good because it also includes skype text chat, if that's important to you, but it disconnects often when not on wifi

eBuddy is the one to choose!
It also saves your Account settings on their servers. So if you once uninstall eBuddy you cant just sign in with your eBuddy pass/usrname and you have all your IM Accounts.

Free mobile IM softwares

Heya,
I just recently got the Fuze and also a first time user of the wimo OS and I just found out that I get charged for the IMs that i send through the default IM softwares. Is there any decent or good IM software out there for wimo? I have the unlimited data plan so I'd like to make the best of it. Thank you very much.
There's a plethora of programs for this purpose. Try looking for Sling, Octro Talk, Fring, IM+, etc. My personal program is BeeJive/JiveTalk.
Have a look here and here
does beejive and IM+ required to be paid for?
and among the freewares, which would you recommend the most?
I tried installing Beejive but for every message that comes in/or I send i receive a text message saying WVCI 1.1 aim. Any way to get rid of this?
For ICQ especially is the best solution software named Pigeon. For Push-to-talk conversation via internet use Palringo.
I ended up using EQO.. the only problem i have with it is the fact that i cant read what i typed down until i send it.. it seems to be a bug of some sort.

So far every aim client i've tried is doing the same thing. The one that comes with the fuze was great until i found out it uses SMS.
yeah. i found that out after wasting 10 or so txt msgs....
EQO is a pretty nice freeware IM and it seems like the landscape mode issue is present in all other IM software.. maybe it's a HTC thing.
might it have anything to do with the resolution of the phone? maybe the programs aren't optimzed for this res?
Slick messenger is free...... He supports ICQ, MSN, GTalk, Yahoo, AIM and Jabber.
I do love Palringo. It is very fast and can do everything you need!
Palringo
I have to agree with the previous poster. http://palringo.com - easily the best option out there. Tight integration, multiple accounts active on multiple services, includes AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, and Jabber/GTalk.
Only weird thing is that you have to create an account on their website first. But then if you ever move phones / reinstall, your profile includes all your accounts already. And you can send picture messages inline directly.
Personally I like IM+ the best, It has support for aim,msn,yahoo,googletalk,icq, and jabber. You do have to pay for it however.
edit, but now that ive seen palringo in the posts above i think my first impression is wow that looks a lot nicer than im+.
another vote for plaringo. i use it very often with the voice chat, picture now location (gps/cell tower trianglutaion) works on my desktop and ppc
One big minus for Palringo...it drains the battery very quickly. Instead that,it is perfect solution for voice messaging also via slow GPRS! and it's multiplatform(I use it with Hurricane and previously with Himalaya).
I don't think Palringo is all that big of a battery hog. I used to keep it on for hours at a time and never had any issues on my Kaiser. This was generally quick bursts of a dozen messages a couple times an hour.
But yes, my preferred IM client on Windows Mobile so far. Have not tried any of the for-pay ones. Yeah you do have to create an account, but it's because they want you to use their messaging service which seems like it would be very useful if you know anyone else with the program. It's multiplatform, and has media sharing and push-to-talk which I hear works decently well.
Palringo is my vote. I BOUGHT IM+ about 2 days b4 someone showed me Palringo. I was sad.
Only drawbacks for me is I use AOL IM alot. It doesn't keep my AOL directories. It just throws everything into "online" or "offline".
No vibration feature or light. I think IM+ had those.
I LOVE voice IMing. As long as you AIM someone with the sound on, they get a tag saying I sent a voice message. When they click on it, it plays back what I said. Very handy while driving.
Allows two different AIMs to be signed in. I like that. Sometimes I need work aim and home aim on.
Now I kinda use AOLIM client for Windows Mobile. Works fine. And has my directories.
+1 for Palringo
I've tried every PPC IM program out there and Palringo is the one I settled on. I'm very happy with it and it's free. They also continue to improve it and add features (though I'm very happy with it now).
-Mc
Oh. I dloaded IM+ since I havn't used it in about a year. They IMPROVED it. Now has a history, remembers my aol groups. Only thing still missing is vibration and teh ability to show AIM personal messages.

ICQ client

Hey..
are there any other ICQ clients for Android besides meebo and IM+ which both have two downsides for me
meebo: I only see the ICQ number of the contacts, not the (custom) names
IM+: you know, it's not free
So.. do you know any other ICQ client?
Use "Hello AIM!" - search it on the market! Works pretty well! And it's FREE, much better then meebo's app. Use your ICQ# as LogIn. Enjoy
Thx alot. That app is really way better (at least right now).
The integrated IM (AIM) app works for me too. I was pretty surprised that we can use ICQ accounts in these mobile AIM clients ...

Don't be surprised, they've used the same backend for quite some time now.

NEW MSN?!

Hello, I am needing a new MSN, really need this one, I use the regular MSN of fuze, but it input (on mobile device) up in my window, so I tryied another one, I think you already know, it is SLICK
Slick works many protocols, as ICQ, YAHOO, MSN and others, and it let you to log-in offline, and send/receive offline messages, but there is a very annoying problem with the slick.
I dont know why, but when I am using it, and the fuze sleeps, so many times appear the message: "FAILED TO ALOC MEMORY" ERROR
I would like to find a app that I can use it as slick, but without this disturbing error, it everytimes updates, I the developers should have thinked about it already, because it is so normal to happen.
Do you know any app?
try out beejive
well I found nimbuzz works great for me.... hope this helps
Try Parlingo
try parlinggo, its great and have simple but nice interface
Palringo
Yes. I must agree palringo works great, and with many protocols. Im using it with msn, yahoo, and facebook.
CAB for nimbuzz

Nimbuzz seems to be a great app. Seems to be the only one with skype integration. Do you have any idea where to get the cab for Nimbuzz? The java version perfectly starts using JavaFX, but the touch screen doesn't work.

ebuddy? i use this and it works great i must say :/

which IM for yahoo,msn do you use?

Hi,
So far I couldn't find any yahoo or msn messenger for android. Is there any?
Which IM for yahoo, msn do you use ?
Is there any IM for android which connects directly to the yahoo/msn server (unlike meboo, ebuddy)?
Is there any messenger which supports multi gmail accounts?
Thanks in advance.
Hi there
Try Truphone or Fring
ebuddy works great
Hi Msn is working flawlessly for me, although i am unsure if it supports yahoo messenger.
There is also an app called NimBuzz which supports windows live, yahoo, AIM, Skype, Facebook, Gtalk, My space, ICQ.. and soo much more...
Check it out.. i use it mostly for Skype Calls but everything else seems to work amazing when i first set it up.
There are also several apps that work without extra Server.
I'm using ICQ and MSN. I can't say anything about yahoo...
By far the best App I have tested was IM+. Too sad it costs way too much...
The built-in t-mobile app also connects directly. I used it for several days. works fine (ICQ is the same protocol as AIM)
but now I'm on Meebo. I like to have the same History on Phone and PC.
the "IM" app that comes on CM roms (i believe its the T-Mobile one) is a great app that works great, only downside is on Rogers network you cannot connect as it will try and verify by sim. You will need to be on wifi to use "IM" but i still love this app
i also use Nimbuzz but have had some issues as of late with it dropping (could be the phone too )
hi yahoo
there is a hi yahoo app. works well for me, but right now i go back & forth between meebo & ebuddy.
I just dun like the way all these messenger design. These company can make better layout, fonts and feature for Iphone and why not Android? Just disappointed.
IM+ (the conversation layout very very bad. Words too small can't change font and stupid color)
Palringo (All the buddy(contact) squeeze into one. Very difficult to locate friend)
Meebo ( I hate to login meebo inorder to use MSN/Yahoo, buddy layout very bad)
MSN Droid (Not bad so far. Only support MSN and no yahoo.)
ebuddy ( Another one need ebuddy account. conversation fonts too small)
Android IM ( So far so good but will disconnect if phone go to sleep. Maybe its design to work with SMS)
You guys forgot BuddyMob
Plus: You can choose your own Messenger Picture, MultiLogin (connect from your homecomputer AND your Android Phone the same time) is supported, swipe function is included
Minus: No Ring for MSN, no Send Files, no smileys
Used it for months, now i'm looking for something new
eBuddy works for me... careful with gtalk though - it sets your status to an ad.
On the MyTouch 3G there is an almost sort of half-decent app which includes MSN, Yahoo and I think it is AIM. At least you get to see your buddies online and it is over the data network, but as mentioned already you have to be on wi-fi to sign in unless you are on T-Mobile's data network as the phone uses only T-Mo's SIM info (and wifi) to let you sign in. The question is, is there a way to tweak the app so that you can use any carrier and still sign in from the data on your SIM, and how can this be done? I am nearly sure it can be. Can anyone help?
I've been using meebo without any problems.
anyone knows which IM app can do group chats? like in a conversation with more than 2 person? I know ebuddy can't do that... it's really frustrating!
I've found that when using ANY im program it's hard NOT to get dc'd. I have settled on using msn live which is free from the marketplace.it still dc's every now and then but at least now I can have a direct shortcut to msn on my desktop instead of just a general IM shortcut. hope this helps.
I found a Windows Live app (plainly called MESSENGER) on Android Market. It is quite good indeed! I installed it on my Hero and MyTouch 3G After a few days it would not function on the Hero - only force close whenever I launched the app. I uninstalled it from the Hero thereafter. Still works on my MyTouch 3G though. I cannot find it on Android Market anymore - not sure why not.
I use QQ!!!!!!Hoho!!
msn has an official app called MSN Droid, its pretty sick
and they were saying something about a yahoo one coming out soon
try nimbuzz

All in one social Networking Application

Just search in market place for "IMO"
This is a nice Application for Social Networking
Which includes,
MSN,
Yahoo,
AIM/ICQ,
Google Talk,
My Space,
Skype only messenger (No support for voice and video)
Facebook,
Jabber.
This all in one Application works really great and manages Contacts and friends
and many more please give a try.
If you find this post is useful please dont forget to give a Thanks
And yes its a Free Application
Again all the credits goes to the Developer
Sorry if i am wrong but i like this all in one instant messenger application
I believe "Meebo" does the same
Yea thats Right
Meebo needs an meebo account to save all the IM message
but for this application no need of Application Accounts
Hope you got the picture
Thank you
Not really. You dont need Meebo account. You can add separate accounts (ICQ, AIM, etc) in Meebo on Android too. It is just more convenient to have it aggregated under Meebo account. But you do not have to
i am sorry i don't know that
Thanks for the information
but does meebo has skype support? i think IMO has skype too
and also i like the UI of IMO then other
please give a try you can feel the difference
anyway thank you

No Twitter support? I guess that's no big deal since nobody's heard of or is using Twitter.
