[Q] Instant messenging from Contacts ?

Hi,
I recently found that there is an option for adding IM accounts for each contact. While in Edit Contact mode you have the choice to add an IM account (most common ones) for each contact. If you add an IM account you will then have a choice within a contact to start IM chat with that specific person.
My problem is that if I add an Microsoft Live account for one of my friends nothing happens when I try to send a message. E.g There is no application linked to this action.
It works well if I instead use Google Talk, but then that application is installed on the phone.
Since there is no official MSN application available I wonder if there is a way to get this working ? Is there an Motorola app which is not present on my phone? (running custom firmware) or is there a way to link a specific app to that action ? (Ebuddy for example) or how is this intended to be used ?
Been searching the net for an answer without any luck.

nope, instant messaging from contacts is only avail. for Gtalk.
some extra functionallity comes with the official skype app, (like in facebook or twitter)
but you can mess aound with jabber transports if ur rly interessted, that works quite well for me, but can get complicated too.
there are guides for that out there - if u google "jabber transport gtalk"

Thanks for the reply. I also found out that this has nothing to do with Motorola, since it looks and behaves the same on my Samsung Galaxy. Looks like Google prepared for IM via Contacts but since there are no offical clients (or non official) that integrates with the contacts it doesn't work. Would be good to be able to configure this yourself. Anyway I will stick with Ebuddy which lets me connect to different networks within the same applikation.

Google voice in countries other than America

Hello everyone.
Is there any way by which I can use Google voice in country other than US.?
or can anyone please make a new Google account in usa and activate Google voice in that account, and then give me that account.
I might run voice. I just need an Google voice activated account.
Please help me
I guess you have to have a number from USA, just purchase the one available online or else google it.. You need a number for activation and that's it. Just for verification ..
When I open application it says your email id is not activated for Google voice.
So I want an mail id with activated voice, but it is only possible if you are in usa
Are you using Google voice in india?
I am, but i used a number from USA just for confirmation and that's it ... Find any relative in US for just one time activation..
Use Tor browser if it helps.. and install Google Voice from Play Market via TOR..

[Q] Contacts app with sip address support

I am using CSipSimple with Android integration turned on for secure calls via Ostel. I have been in contact with the developer and he believed it was an HTC limitation, so I phoned HTC support this morning and they said I need to use a third-party contacts app. Their People app doesn't have a custom field for sip, nor in the IM field.
I wanted to add the sip address of a person who phoned me to their existing contact and the People app crashes. I was able to do it once but it added the address as IM & AIM and of course doesn't work to phone that person.
Can someone recommend a good contacts app that would work well with the ability to integrate with csipsimple and google contacts?
