I just got my qtek 9100 and it came installed with pocket msn. Is there anyway I can remove this as I dont have a hotmail account and dont want the hotmail inbox. .... or is there another way of removing just the inbox.
I much prefer agile for msn anyway so dont realy need pocket msn anyway.
Any help would be appreciated.
hi buddy
try the attached file - got it from my wizard extended rom!
cheers, lutz

Its in the Windows folder and some thing like msnmsgr.exe - can't tell you for sure as I dont have it with me.
Just to finish off I placed a copy in the start menu and removed from the today screen the pocket MSN thing.
Terran
Thanks for the repsonses.
I did a hard reset and didnt start the pocket msn software, so it didnt create a hotmail inbox. I've removed it from the program icons.
The messenger software is called instmsgr.exe but if you use that it still creates the hotmail inbox.
Cheers
i too would like to know how to use msn without it making the hotmail inbox. also i'd like to get rid of the outlook email one but i could live with that staying but 2 inboxes i dont use starts to get anoying
I just use agile messenger which is free and does the same job. In fact it goes one better by including AOL, ICQ and yahoo messenger.

I simply made a shortcut in SPB Pocket Plus to a file called..... instmsrg.exe which is in the Windows folder.
To get rid of the mailbox, i guess you could hard reset, create the shortcut to instmsgr.exe then never open the Pocket MSN so the mailbox never gets made. As suggested above.

as shah said it still creates the hotmail account as soon as you sign in using the msn software. oh well guess i'll just have to use a 3rd party app for instant messaging

right figured out how to remove it. go into settings / memory and stop msn and messaging. (this'll stop you having to reset)
load up a reg editor, I used resco explorer. goto HKLM/software/microsoft/inbox/svc then rename the "hotmail" key to "-hotmail" exit resco and press the power button to standby your device and save the reg changes. now if you go into messages the hotmail will be gone.
i've only just figured this out so not sure if there are any minor side effects, let me know if you notice any.
Thanks
That seems to do the trick.
Need just to decide whether to use agile or instmsgr ... The latter integrates better with the os but I think I read somewhere that it uses more data so higher gprs costs ???
I just tried this on the new rom, and it denied me access to the whole messaging package.
No Texts, nothing.
So I'm just undo-ing the change.
How can I get rid of the process called pMSNServer.exe which takes up around 300KB of my precious RAM??

Not to be contrary, but pMSNServer.exe should only be using 56kb of resident memory. I haven't seen it run since I did the following from a few posts up (though I deleted the whole key rather than renaming it):

I already deleted that key as well - I don't have the MSN Inbox in my MobileOutlook...
However, the pMSNService.exe is still running and takes up around 300KB...
which app you use to see how much space does the msn program use when running ?
thanx
I am using SKTools, but there are also many other memory managers...

Dear Lutzh,
I ran this cab on my Toshiba G900 WM6P PPC phone, to remove WLM, and it asked where to install, I chose Storage Card. Now on card I have folder Tools with a file CeSetup in it which does not have a file association. In Add/Remove programs I have nothing new that can be removed. In /windows I still have the WLM files. Did I do something wrong, what should I do next?
Thank you in advance

I removed all of this from my registry and no Activesync or Hotmail now listed, this works for me as i dont bother with either of them, I use GPRS to check me mail and never use hotmail, figured it was time for them to go.
Even though they are no longer visible in the Inbox app, they still appear in Pocket Breeze, anyone help out further?
Below is the 3 sets of backups i made during removal
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\ActiveSync]
"FriendlyName"="Outlook E-mail"
"UserCannotCreate"=dword:00000001
"DLL"="syncmgr.dll"
"Name"="ActiveSync"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\ActiveSync\MsgClasses]
"IPM.Note"=dword:00000001
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\Hotmail]
"UserCannotCreate"=dword:00000001
"Port"=dword:00000000
"DefMsgClass"="IPM.Note"
"SupportedMsgClasses"="IPM.Note"
"DLL"="pMSNHotmail.dll"
"Name"="Hotmail"
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Pocket MSN]
"Link"="Pocket MSN.lnk"
"Domains"="hotmail.com;passport.com"
My aim is to remove all mail accounts except the 3 i use, ie my POP3, SMS and MMS, which is what I now have in my Inbox, just not everywhere else so far
Good jobs.
Sorry, how did you remove them?
exactly, in the examples that you posted here, there are no changes to the original registry.
no no no, they are the keys i removed totally from the registry, they were cut + pastes from my backup files.
soz for confusion
Amazing! Works great. Thanks a lot
i know this seems a bit trivial but have you tried removing pocket breeze, doing the changes then re-installing ? i think pocket breeze creates all its headers etc when it installs?
its a good theory unfortunatly i wont be able to try it unti tomorrow night, godda do a bit of travelling

I've done this but I no longer get notifications when I receive a text message
Yeah!! I have the same problem!!! What´s wrong?
I simply removed the hotmail registry entry in
HKLM\Software\Mircosoft\Inbox\Svc
I can't see a need to remove the other entries as Active Sync and MSN Messenger are not displayed in my list of inboxes.
However, I do not use Pocket Breeze.
I'm guessing the active sync keys are responsible for your alert notifications?
Just sent a text message to my phone, i'm still receiving the notifications on arrival so i'm pretty sure its the active sync reg keys you've removed.
What?
How would I re-add this?
it works great..
but now I have hotmail1 account!!!!!???
causes Problems with Pocket Outlook
Just for the record:
another nasty little side effect of removing the ActiveSync-Registry items posted above is that Pocket Outlook will crash on load.
If you use alternative means of sending and receiving SMS thats no biggie, but I thought I'd mention it.
(slightly off-topic: )
By the way, has anyone resolved the issue with tmail.exe and 3rd party apps for sending SMS? I can send them through pocket Outlook, but not through any 3rd party apps (Flexmail, Pocket Informant etc...).
This Knowledge Base article suggests it's an OS-Issue, so I thought I'd ask you guys...

it's very strange. I have the same rom installed and MSN presents. Did you look for MSN Options in Start/Settings?
I've noticed the same.
I get the full "MSN" page which means an extra click to start messenger.
I used to have a shortcut direct to the Msn_Msgr program but... now it's gone
Are they that desperate for us to use their whole MSN "suite"?!
in Settings I have MSN Options dialog,
but all features are disabled, except the one: SMS
all others are disabled on every taps.

First use Pocket MSN in Start/Programs to set your account

thanks for great suggestions! works!
but I get icons for Pocket MSN dialog, then I can select MSN Messenger.
I preffer icon directly to Messenger, but this is no special problem.
now, all features in MSN Settings are enabled.

make a shortcut to it.
use file manager to:
"copy" the file \windows\instmsgr.exe
and "paste shortcut" in \windows\start menu\programs
great help! thx!
Fantastic!
The last step I made the above shortcut, this is what I wanted to back.
This is why I love this forum. Sharing ideas and solution. Nowhere and noone (mean: no manufactures and no device provider) gives such good support and help.
btw: why the official ROM release which so many bugs? I found there are some old IA CallerID pictures inside the ROM with no matter to use, because this program was remove a while.
Alright, I flashed the latest Dopod firmware on my 838Pro, and decided to configure MSN. But for some reason I had no option not to sync the contacts to my contact list, and now my contact list is all messed up with all the random emails and ****, and I can't even organise it to show phone contacts on top, and the rest below.
So how the hell do I remove all this crap or is there a way to just show SIM contact list? I can't even install the cab to select multiple contacts.
yeah ms really screwed up with that one

When you run the setup for Live Messenger, you get an option "Sync Messenger Contacts with Outlook" or something similar. Just don't select it. It does require removal and reinstallation of the Live Messeger though.

I want to use Live Messenger, but if I disable that they refuse to let me run the Messenger.
If you have your contacts set to save to your SIM card, they're going to be quite nasty looking in the phone and Messenger won't be able to work with them. Judging by what the original poster said, I think this is the real problem here.
As far as Messenger goes, just don't use it. Install OctroTalk, which has MSN, AIM, Yahoo, and Google messengers built in.

Yes, don't save your contacts on your SIM card.
What I did is add-ed al my contacts in live.com>contacts and then I sign in mobile msn and trala; it automatically adds all my contacts on my phone. I dont have any problems with wlm anymore, I love it!
bah!!!!!!!!!
I decided to add the msn contacts .. so i could use the stupid WLM.. so i add them to my contacts and delete them one by one.. little do i know..i also delete them off the msn server.. now i have noone in my contact list when i login on my pc as well..
Smart idea! any ideas on how to get them back?

This issue is killing me too. After exhaustive googling, it seems that there is no way around it now. I can't tolerate all the random hotmail contacts from my buddy list stuck in my contacts. Guess I'll just have to use something else. Really wish I could use the functionalities of WLM though. Freaking M$ can't make anything right.
You could always download the older stand-alone MSN Messenger software and use it instead of Windows Live. It's not quite as nice but I'm guessing most of you are just using the text chat functionality of the software anyway.

On your pc, goto tools -> options or whatever, find the page where you can see which you have blocked and which you have not, then right cick on the top one on the unblocked ones, and select add to contacts (or something similliar)
then nr.2 on the list and so on
I'm not even bother useing MSN live.. Just go to the standard MSN for now... Waiting for them to find a way to filter your msn live on your contract list.... Someone go complain... ahahah

Would you mind repeating what you said there.. with WAY more detail? I want to be sure I understand what you're saying... sounds like... create a group in your MSN account for your contacts. Move everyone into this group, and then when you launch WLM, it creates that same group in your contact list and only puts all of those e-mail addresses into that group. Is that right?
hi,
When i tried to sign in the messenger, it warned me that my MSN contact list will be added to my phone list which is the last thing I want to happen in this world.
Is there any way i can use live msn without messing up my phone contacts?
Pls advise.
Mark
Yeah, I didn't want that to happen either so I just installed the older version of MSN and was able to stay clear of those issues.

Be carefull with that! I just did the same on my Trinity running the official Dopod WM6 ROM (SEA), and guess what...: after reboot i entered my device-PIN (NOT the SIM-PIN!) and it said 'wrong password'
Had to hard-reset...
I dunno what exactly caused it, but i DO know that before PocketMSN, and after rebuilding my device without it, i have no issues at all...
I decided to leave MSN untouched in any way (i didn't really use it that much anyway)...

Thanks for the heads up.
I was running the 'Official' Dopod ROM but I removed it and flashed back to AX3L's ROM because all of the bugs I encountered with Dopod's ROM.
Using AX3L's ROM, I have not have any issues with MSN like this, but I will look out.

If you open Windows Live and go into the options, you can configure the sync settings.
Options are...
Select what you want to sync on your device:
Contacts and Messenger
Merge Duplicates with Outlook
e-mail
This will prevent your messenger contacts merging with your outlook ones.

I remember of seeing there only 2...and even with both deactivated, it messed up the contacts list....
I cannot seem to log in to windows live or messenger. Help!
I don't know if anyone has found a long term viable solution to this problem yet, but I have a workaround that some of you might be interested in adopting.
Step 0 (Prerequisite): Please make sure that all your contacts on your phone have the their Messenger email addresses in the "IM Address" field on the phone (or in outlook).
Step 1: Sign in to Live ID and merge all contacts with Outlook.
Step 2: Go to "contacts on the phone and file all contacts as "First_Name Last_Name", to allow at a glance comparision.
Step 3: Open Messenger on your computer desktop and disable "Receive contact updates" for ALL contacts.
Step 4: Manually Edit the contact information for all duplicate contacts on phone and remove EVERYTHING except the nickname from the contact in Messenger on the computer
Step 5: Switch Windows Live ID on the Phone and sign in again. Merge contacts and they should be fixed. If not, repeat process for recurring contacts by clearing all information from Messenger on your computer desktop.
CAVEAT: Do NOT delete messenger contacts from your phone or your computer in an attempt to fix this problem.
NB: This procedure does not seem to work for Non MSN (Read Yahoo) contacts on Messenger.
to solve the problem on ppc you need to upgrade your live messenger by using thi one wich i fixed

If i remove my battery all my emailsettings/account is lost
If i try to add a new account with the same name it says: account already exists, but i cant see it.
so the only way is to choose a new name for my account.
does someone have a solution?
you can repair the mail account using mailaccountrepair, download it from http://nicolasmauri.blogspot.com/
I have the same problem
I still don't understand why it happen
other solution, which doesn't fit BA, is to shut down the device after setting the account -> has to do something with the registry
perfect, i'll try it on the weekend.
thanks.
I have same problem.
I use Nicolas Mauri MailAccountRepair, and It works perfectly.
It is easy to use, just run the .exe file on my BA, and voila. My gmail account appear again.
