I've searched through the forums but can't find anyone with a similar issue so here goes...
I want to use my bluetooth connection to ActiveSync and use the pass through to the internet to use MSN Messenger but every time I try the XDA II wants to connect via GPRS.
I can access the internet through the pass through so I know it works I just can't use the pass through to get MSN working.
I've also tried using the USB link but again the XDA II wants to connect via GPRS, this leads me to believe that either it isn't impossible or there is a setting somewhere that I need to alter (but can't find) :?
Can anyone help?
Hello,
I can't tell you why yours isn't working, but I can assure you it CAN be done - Mine works, and I haven't had to change anything.
I'm using a proxy server, not that this should matter. Theoretically, if you can browse the net from the XDA via ActiveSync (USB or Bluetooth, either really), then Messenger should connect too.
Are you able to connect using messenger on the PC (not the XDA through the PC)? I'd start by confirming that you can run Messenger from the PC on your network, in case there's a firewall on your network which is blocking the Messenger Ports.
This article here details what ports must be available from behind a firewall.

Hope that helps.
Thanks for your reply.
I can happily run MSN Messenger on the PC without any problems (it is not usually connected to an LAN.
I did think it might be something to do with my software firewall. I have both the standard windows one (with XP Pro) running and Norton Personal Firewall 2003. So I tried stopping Norton and I still couldn't get Messengar to work on the XDA II, admitedly I forgot to stop the windows firewall as well, although I doubt that's the issue having read the first page of the link you posted, it appears that the standard IM messages will be unlikely to be stopped by a firewall as it just "rides on the TCP connection" and is infact using HTTP.
This leads me more to think that there is a setting somewhere either XDA II side or PC Activesync side (v 3.7 btw) that's causing the problem. Either that or the mobile MSN Messenger uses a different type of comms from the desktop version and uses a different port number, most unlikely?.
Any one any clues? I am starting to get very confused :?
P.S. - I've also tried a trial copy of IM+ to see if this would fix the problem but unfortunately I still can't use the MSN Messenger serivces through Activesync Pass Through.
Hi all, i used on my SPV M3000 (QTEK9100) to lauch Hotmail and MSN Messenger on my today's page...

Thank you, i would like to keep working the Orange rom cause it's fine for me, i would like to know if there is a cab or an exe that works to get msn messenger and hotmail.
Who knows the right parameters pop and smtp for Hotmail ?
Orange don't supply MSN Messanger on the M600
You have to pay £10.99 for it from Microsoft. :roll:

I have just upgraded from the HTC Wizard to the TyTN which is an orange branded device I have removed (stopped) the orange customization, but I seem to be missing the MSN part of windows. I've looked on the windows mobile 5 web site, msn web site, but can't find where to down load it. any ideas?
Thanks to all the great information this site has provided I was able to completly open my wizard thanks to this site alone!!!! job well done!!!!
...Isn't msn embedded in wm5, mine is. It's called: pmsnlauncher.exe. I attache one but don't know if it's working standalone...
I just moved from the M2000 to the M3100 today and was dismayed to find no msn messenger pre-installed.
Seemingly it will not let me install Agile Messenger either, as it says that it is not supported.
I have discovered a link in the files which takes you to msn Mobile but then tries to charge you 10.99 to install it. Is there anyway around this, as I use msn a lot whilst travelling, yet loathed to paying for something I expected for free.
Any help?

You need to app-unlock the 3100 before you can install Agile. Once you've done that, it works fine.
To app unlock it, use a registry editor to set the following registry keys (these are decimal values, use 1 and 40 if you're inputing them in hex):
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 1
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 64
For some reason people haven't had much success with other registry editors, so I would recommend Resco's, which I can vouch for through experience.
Yep - installed it on my M3100 today.
Here's a link on how to do it:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/news2266.html
Follow the instructions exactly:
1) Download and install the WM2002 client
2) Download and install the WM2003 update
presto it works!
I managed to get a pre-registered Pocket MSN by copying files over from my dusty old HP I don't use anymore.
Files copied:
pmsnshared.dll
pmsnserver.exe
pmsnresources.dll
pmsnresources.96.dll
pmsnlauncher.exe
pmsnhotmail.dll
pmsn.lnk
pmsn.cpl
Needed to remove the system file attribute to copy it over though. I guess this is helpful if you have a copy of a pre-installed Pocket MSN lying around that you don't use anymore!
If the admins believe this isn't legal, feel free to delete!
Or just go here and download and install it normally.....

Yeah, but if you use this link you have to pay £10.99 to use a program that everyone uses for free...

Hi All,
I downloaded Mobile Live and Messenger from this forum, and was able to install it on my Orange M3100. I then hook up my M3100 to my work wifi. I then run Live, and comes up saying "looking for internet connection" It then comes up with the bubble saying connecting to 3G, which I then hit cancel. It then seems to use the wifi connection the syncronise. Also when using it it, the 3G connection bubble appears regularly, and I have to cancel it. Is there any way I can stop Windows Live and messenger using the 3G service, and just WiFi?
thank
Nick

am actually after the hotmail part of the program than the other bits. i copied all the above files from my m5000 to the m3100 when you click on pmsnluncher nothing happens. what am i doing wrong. please note there are other solutions to get msn messager working, but this dosn't include the hotmail setup. ..help
That guy is missing a few files there, just to let you know.
oh great !!!!!!!!!
can't wait for the beta fto end to i can't get the damm thing.
oh by the way you wouldn't know what the other files are would you?
Windows Live Messenger Mobile is still down, with no end in sight. I really haven't had a chance to look at the newsgroups lately to find out what's going on, but I guess I'll have to.
at least i can give Yahoo Go some credit here, thier ppc client program works pecfectlyon my m3100 collecting all my yahoo emails.. let just hope google follow suite with a client version for picking up emails on the ppc.
Gmail supports pop / smtp access, and uses non-standard ports, so you can use pocket outlook to retrieve / send emails on it without problems.
Hi i'm on t-mobile and have the MDA compact (original) running windows mobile 2003 (PPC2003) and i'm just wondering if windows live messenger is available for it? and also if anyone has had a problem with msn messenger saying "Logon to MSN Messenger Service failed because the service is not responding. Please try again later. It works fine when i connect with activesync to my pc via usb, it just doesnt work when it is not connected to my pc...
Hey there, I have the same set-up as you and everything works fine.
Have you tried the following link as an alternative way to access:
http://mobile.live.com/wlm/imsi.aspx
Let us know how it goes.
yeah i can access windows live via internet explorer, but i wondered if their was an installable version for PPC2003.
As far as I'm aware there are no installable MSN Messenger files available or upgrades for that matter.

Silly question, but have you tried the network wizard? I could never get mms to work with 3 on wm5, but soon as I put wm6 on and ran the wizard it sorted everything out, no proxy either. Haven't tried live messenger though

What network wizard ?
On my WM6 rom on o2 XDA exec it's under start/settings/connections/network wizard, but it may not have been included in your rom for the treo. If it's not on your phone, have a poke around here and on the web for it
