I liked that AIM messenger on the tilt and wish to use it on HTC rom. I'm pretty sure my old cab I used for the wizard can be used, but just wondering any way that program can be brought to HTC rom.
you do you know that one uses text messages everytime you send an recieve a message, it is not using data?
I believe these are the two cabs that come with the AT&T Tilt ROM

Yeah, I just found that out today. I NEVER use SMS and I checked my online statement and figured it out. Thankfully I only sent 7 messages to test it out. Too bad, its a nice client.
I did the same thing when I opened up my tilt, i do like the client, I am fond of agile message too so far but prolly will go with the free version from UK
Try IM+ instead.
when I used the aim service, I was connecting to GPRS. If it uses SMS, will you get charge for data, too just by being connected?
I have unlimited messaging so its a okay, but id imagine it would use data considering it is a pda and most likely will have unlimited data plan.
Hi, I have searched google and these forums for answers to my questions but could not get a definite answer or solution to my questions.
My first question: What is a good program for internet messaging such as AIM and MSN that uses only text messages rather than data usage? I am not on a data plan but do have unlimited text messages...I would be okay if it used WIFI too....
Second question: I have heard that MMS uses data connection. I have my data disabled but would like to have the option possibly available to me. Is it possible to send/recieve MMS w/o the use of a data plan? Perhaps wifi if possible? or a program that allows the sending of MMS w/o data interference?
Thanks in advance for any help!
it uses data.....i have the unlimited text messaging plan that includes IM's and MMS....its the family plan for 29.99 i believe
yea, I have that plan too, it says mms is included, but you dont think it will use data?
also, no IM clients that are supported purely over SMS?
You can try the OZ Instant Messaging client. From reports it sends over SMS. It has been reported it does use a small amount of data when it signs you in or out of the service but after that its all SMS based.

you will not get charged for the data when sending MMS....it will come up as data on your bill but will not get charged for it..so send as many MMS as you want because thats what the plan is for...
as for instant messenger...get the OZ isntant messenger..it comes with the shipped rom (or you can download it like the guy that posted above) and it will use data to log in but you will not get charged for it..and each IM counts as SMS. As long as you have an instant messenger that comes with the original ROM it will count as SMS and will not get charged for any data transfers

That depends...
Which ROM?
Which service?
Have you tried it on a different phone to make sure it's not your provider or account having problems?
etc
im thinking that he jus needs to run network manager
im using either the aserg.9.wm6.1 or the aserg.12.wm6.1 but i called my provider and they say everything is fine and my comm manager has the data connection blacked out and i cant select it and i need that for my mms and i cant send or receive i get a message that says the message was not able to be downloaded i get 3 options like download anyway, delete or reject message so i dont know what to do
I noticed that you must send something to sprint's email or voicemail to the vvm address to start the app or to get it working..
I was just curious does it cost extra to use this app or something?
Thanks
also why does my sprint tv app keep telling me i have to be a sprint customer to use the app when i am a sprint customer?
What. You have to email your sprint email address in order for your phone to recognize the voice sms, or voicemail message?
As for your other app, you might have to just reinstall it.
I've been having a lot of problems with MMS since picking up the Active and switching to AT&T.
I usually use Handcent, but right now it's pretty worthless when it comes to group messages or receiving a picture. in both the stock messaging app and Handcent settings I have it set to group messages, and to automatically download. when I receive an MMS, though, I still have to click on download (and they won't download at all in Handcent even after clicking).
say I receive a group text from someone and 3 other people respond. both apps now display 4 different entries, one for each person. if I open each individual's thread and click download (again just in the stock app) the messages will be removed from that individual's thread and then be added to a group thread.
this is pretty frustrating, and I really want it solved. is this an AT&T issue (I was on VZW riding the Droid train before) or something with the phone?
a little update on this:
sending of MMS is also way less than ideal, either not sending at all, or taking a really really long time. I tried to send a picture earlier and it took 40 minutes before it finally went through. my searching of the interwebs leads me to believe it's perhaps an APN issue? it would be strange if the default settings out of the box prevent it from working, though. anyone else have an issue with this?
MMS is horrible for me on Handcent, too. I have to open the stock Messaging app just to download an MMS and sometimes that doesn't work, either. I also tried AT&T Messages, but it won't ever even setup correctly.
