I want to place voice chat from my cell phone on Yahoo Messenger. Is that possible to use Yahoo Voice on my tytn II?
Thank You!!
Ive been looking for this answer too...so far no luck. Ive found a few apps that let you place Voip calls to messengers , but none have yahoo voice. FRINFE looks to be the most promising in the near future. If anyone else has any answers , please do share I have friends in PI who cant legally use skype , but they have yahoo voice so it would be great to be able to call them on Y!
palringo works great for voice chatting
www.palringo.com
its free
Does anyone know if the programs in the AT&T Tilt Instant Messaging use SMS? I have no text plan, so I would hat to use it then get a big bill.
do u bother to search? yes it uses txt.
Yes, AT&T took off WindowsLive with their free messenger that uses your unlimited data service and put on there IM client that uses sms so that you have to still pay them for every message sent.
great thanks for letting me know.

So, any suggestions for a replacement? Microsoft's MyPhone is OK, but it doesn't give me the ability to view and respond to SMS messages via my computer like Dashwire.
Sucks, sucks, sucks.

Shame, Dashwire was pretty slick. myPhone is probably the best alternative now, though.
Well, actually, I'd say that the best alternative (and what I do) is to use Exchange to back up all your calendar / contacts info (I use Google Sync) and use MS Live Mesh to back up documents and photos.
Still no desktop SMS support, but I use Google Voice to handle that...
Google Voice
What does Google Voice do for your SMS messages? I'm not familiar with it.
Thanks!

It does nothing for SMS sent to your regular cell number, but you can send and receive SMS messages from a Google Voice number. These messages can be forwarded to your phone or email, and you can send outgoing messages through the GV number using various apps or a web interface.
I don't have a text plan, so I don't use SMS a lot. The Google Voice workaround is enough if I just want to get ahold of somebody, but it wouldn't be a good solution for a heavy texter until somebody figures out how to make it work more "natively" with WM phones.

Flexilis Mobile Security seems interesting enough, though it doesnt cover your needs for remote SMS sending and receiving.

I have the verizon tab, and i don't particularly want to pay for a TXT message plan, but want to send the occasional txt message to my girlfriend
is there a worth while messaging program or should i just put a 250 message plan on my tab?
Hi,
Try WhatsApp from the Market for free, it use data to send text massage and its very quick, like BBM on Blackberry. Your girlfriend will need the same app on her phone.
This app is also available free for Apple, Nokia and Blackberry.
Use Google Voice . It have free text and voice mail .
or you could just email her number using whatever carriers text address.

you get the idea,
here is an entire list of messaging gateways.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways
pretty much all carriers.
just save hers as her contact info and you are good to go!!
Hi.
It seems WhatsApp is looking for C# programmers
Might hint on an upcoming release...
I really want it to come already, so all you C# programmers, go apply and write me WhatsApp (bug free please)
If they're looking for developers now this isn't going to get released for months.
Why not use kik?
Wish I could but all of my friends are using Whatsapp (Android/iOS)...
Without whatsapp I can't move to WP..
The same for most of my friends
Iosu

there is a kik messenger app for android and ios.. And thb kik messenger is alot faster then Whatsapp
Just to clarify:
worldwide WhatsApp Users: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000....
worldwide kik (or however this unknown bloody software is called) Users: 10
Or in different words: nobody has kik! And all want WhatsApp (regardless how crap this software is) for the only reason: because all their friends (on Andorid or iPhone) ALREADY have it!
Thats the problem, so ROLL ON Whats App!

Yeah dude, you're right. WhatsApp is crap. Kik is way better since ever, and I'll not trade something better to worse just because the whole world use it.
I would have an Android, if so (;
if kik can just automatically add friends based on their phone numbers then it would be great.you wouldnt have to add individually each contact...still i agree its better then whatsapp
Oh god, why people are so lazy??
You just need to add ONCE. Your hands will not explode in pain if you use it to something beyond fap.

Not allowed in wp7 until mango.
I'm looking forward to this if it's ever see's the light of day - if need be then i can always roll back to Kik messenger
Having a BBM-style IM client will certainly help me transistion from BlackBerry a damn sight easier!!
whatsapp and kik and all the others are useless just use the built in FACEBOOK chat, or MSN messnger, 95% of people have a facebook or an msn app on their phone.
My girlfriend has an iphone4 and i've got an omnia 7. We use Kik messenger to send messages to each other because the iphone doesn't have push notifications for facebook chat or MSN messenger (i know it's a iphone problem...but it does prevent me from using it).
Although Kik works, the biggest downsides for me: it is not mango (multitasking)...yet, you have to set the kik tile to your home screen (it would make more sense to use the native messenger tile), no voice to text and text to voice like the native messenger in mango (it is awesome!).
Maybe i'm too fussy about these things
they should have integrated facebook messages into mango, as well and not just facebook chat.
in combination with the new facebook messenger app for ios and android it could be an alternative to whatsapp.
@gentrice Exactly! Now it's kinda weird you can chat (facebook, Win Live) via the messenger tile in wp7...while you can't send facebook messages. It would be totally awesome if WhatsApp, Kik etc. would also be able to integrate directly in the OS. I can imagine that companys like WhatsApp would like to receive some earnings from this. I would have no problem in paying a yearly fee to be able to have WhatsApp integrated in the OS (it would be the same as paying for the app on a year tot year basis).
I guess I just keep dreaming a little further . Hopefully facebook messages will get integrated in WP7. Everyone I know uses facebook. With a cross platform messaging app...it could be huge.

Yea maybe if your friends are all on WP7 its ok because its integrated and running all the time (unless you go and turn it off). But I dont believe its integrated into iPhone, Android or Blackberry..
