PPT Agile Messenger on TyTN - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere or if it is staring me right in the face but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to map the PTT button on Agile messenger. I've got a "stock standard" HTC TyTN and Agile Messenger version AMST-WMPPC-59. Any help would do wonders for my quickly vanishing patience.

can't you use MS Messenger? - it's free. came already installed on mine.
doesn't have PTT though......

Ptt
Try using the record button.

Hey Pole Vaulter,
I'm using Agile AMST-WMPPC-2 and there is an option in OPTIONS > PREFERENCES > MEDIA. Click on the 'Assign push-to-talk button' and follow the instructions. I've used a few different buttons and found the mail key the better one as the functionality of a key is lost while Agile is running.
Hope this helps.
Gavin.

Gavin - is the option directly under the media tab? i followed the path Options > Preferences > Media and the only choice I can make is Auto Play messages.
Anybody know what exactly the 2 versus the 59 in the build number refers to?

Hi Pole,
Yeah that's exactly where it is on mine. Maybe you need to update your version of Agile.
Here is the link from the other post to download the ALPHA release I'm using: http://www.agilemobile.com/alpha/AgileMessengerWM5-alpha.zip
Gavin.

Gavin-
Tanks very much for the help -not sure what went wrong with the version I had (got it direct from their website) but the upgrade from your link sorted the problem out. Thanks again, I was beginning to go mad.

Its not an upgrade, its an older version. They started disabling the PTT on the newer versions (3.1 and up, I think)
Thanks SOOOO much for posting this link. I was looking for the version that still had it for about 5 months. I went all the way back to an old old version just to get it back, but this fixes all the issues.
Thanks again, Lew

What is PTT ?
Is Agile messenger a freeware ?

Does anyone know of any program or any way to activate your camera and stream video to a friend who is on MSN/Yahoo/AIM chatting with you?

PTT stands for 'Push To Talk' and yes, Agile Messenger is free.

No, it is not free
I checked here :
http://www.agilemobile.com/downloads.html
Agile Messenger has a free 7 day unlimited trial. After this you must register at http://www.agilemobile.com/pay/
Please send your feedback, comments and bug reports to [email protected]

Well... if you read further you wills see that the pocket PC version of Agile is in fact free. So feel "free" to use it.
Later, Lew

I hope you are correct I cant see it in their website that it is in fact free.

Sorry - just a mispost and I can't figure out how to delete it.

If you are having to soft reset it that much, get rid of whichever apps are causing your problems!

*****New O2 XDA Exec Rom is now available*****

I've just noticed that there is a new ROM available from the O2 XDA Web site.... I'm downloading it now....
URL: http://xda.o2.co.uk/xdaExecSoftware.aspx
or to get directly to the files and bypass the IMEI check (!) try
http://xda.o2.co.uk/xdaExecSoftwareDownload.aspx?a=true
It says...
Xda Exec ROM - the Xda Exec System Software
The latest Xda Exec System Software is available for you to download. New and changed in this version of software, v1.30.162 are:

Updated Radio v1.09.00
Updated CE image v1.30.107
This software is for Xda Exec in UK and Ireland
So..... no A2DP then :x
and no blackberry support? That's annoying. Anyone done the upgrade yet?
i initially liked o2's UI more than any of the others,
and the updated CE image has me excited
but i really want to have the A2DP for my HT820s :?
has anyone tried it yet? how does it compare to the most recent qtek?
EDIT: the site is painfully congested.. i'm getting dialup speeds on a 30Mbps link
im half way through update now
So, would this ROM work with an MDA Pro? I've been trying to figure out all these different ROM versions for the MDA I'm getting tomorrow but right now I'm just confused!
Thanks.
can someone put it on the ftp
i can't deal with all these TCP Resets on the o2 site :x
im uploading it now. ive updated, i think its the same as the other new roms. it has a wireless manager today plugin and device lock and comm manager
its like waiting for paint to dry, tick tock, tick tock, Im watching it upload
Thanks for uploading )
but how was the speed of the exec & more importantly does it support A2DP? if so is there still any nosie?
Remind: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=47977
Direct Link: http://xda.o2.co.uk/xdaExecSoftwareDownload.aspx
its much faster , and theres no a2dp
or at least i dont think there is a2dp. How do i check?
i dont have a bluetooth headset btw
well, is not hard.
here is the step.
go to start--->Help
then click on search, type in "bluetooth"
if you see a topic called " Set up a stereo headset "
then it will have a very high chance that it support A2DP
Someone please upload rom to ftp. Ive got valid IMEI but no UK phone number. I would really be greatful
Does it have the stupid clock in the today screen or have they put the clock back in the top bar?

I've upgraded and done the search... and there is an entry that says"Setup a Stereo headset".... but it refers generically to "Windows Mobile Devices support A2DP"..... so unconclusive I think.... sorry... dont have a stereo headset either

Following the upgrade, (using the corporate mode - password 0506), I have:

Hello, I am happy to try the upgrade. I have a pair of bluetooth headphones so I should be able to clarify if it has the A2DP support. I would like to make a backup of my exec's data beforehand using ActiveSync but I cant see the option to backup in version 4.1.
If anyone can help with this, I'll update tonight and post the results.

AIM on the Wizard

Ok, so since T-Mobile and Cingular (here in America) want to ban the use of AIM 2.0 on the Pocket PC, and instead, use their service (which charges 10cents an IM), I was wondering if anyone has worked on a hack to fix this.
Basically, both companies have done something to the software, in which when AIM is installed, it will not allow you to sign on. Please note... I am NOT looking for a replacement suggestion for AIM, I am looking for the AIM program itself. There has to be SOME sort of way around this tweak, and I am truly hoping one of the many genius minds that browse this forum would be so kind enough as to help.
do you some sort of error or it just doesnt send
have you tried agile..? it has all the instant messengers
Hello!
This is what I use, and I don't seem to get 10 cents a IM.
Just unzip the cab and transfer it to your device and install!
*Edit* I am in the USA also, just so ya'know.
Agile messenger would be your best bet.
It acts a service and send text messages to your phone instead of the actually message. Just as long as you have a text plan you should be fine.
I prefer Verichat to Agile. The only draw for Agile right now is that it's free, but it's beta. The beta version of Agile likes to crash a lot. Verichat is on th expensive side, but I think it's worth it.
Go here, aol.co.uk and download the aim version for mobile. It's free as compared to installing the EXACT SAME VERSION from the U.S. aol.com which they want $19.99 for. The installer has capabilities for installing on a wide range of pocket pc's, as well as ones with MIPS and ARM processors.
The link once again is aol.co.uk
Good luck!
They charge $20 for that chunk of crap?!? That thing barely functioned under 2003 3 years ago. :lol:

i thought agile uses internet?
I was under that impression also. Then I read around on the internet and people were saying that it does indeed act as a gateway to thier servers and sens txt messages back and forth.
Now after your reply and I checked to make sure, I'm finding both answers...So I'm not sure anymore.

Is the start bar inverted to get it to work here?
Because I remember trying aim before and the thing wouldn't work right but the start bar wasn't on the bottom like this one.
Is it hacked or something?
Very nice though. Thanks!

My son and I both use Agile on our 8125's with a data plan. Agile useage goes against the kb/data, NOT the text messaging. You have to be connected to the internet to use Agile -- either through WiFi or GPRS.
We've NEVER been charged for text messaging using Agile.
Great! I can cancle my text message plan.

There is but it won't work on WM5...
Unless some one can hack it like that above AIM program to move the WM5 start bar to the bottom when the program is active.
Let me break it down for you gentlemen...
Basically what's been happening (here in the east coast of the US at least) is Pocket PC phones have been becoming increasingly more powerful. Obviously, T-Mobile and Cingular are no dummies to waves, so they started to release some of their own. But in an attempt to garner more money, they've been releasing their own versions of AIM, which basically charge the user a text per message (sent or received). In addition, they basically disabled the old AIM 2.0, which was (and still is) highly popular amongst Pocket PCs that aren't branded, or simply don't have a phone equipped in them.
That button on the button that says "Sign On"? It's not there anymore. Neither is the File or Edit menus. There's something embedded in the registry that doesn't allow the usesr to use this version of AIM... which is why I created this topic to begin with.
Now as I stated originally, I wasn't looking for alternatives to AIM 2.0 on the Pocket PC... I like this version a lot. Back when I was using my unbranded i-mate Jam, I suppose I've gotten inclined to using this version more. I've tried Agile Mobile, but it is still way too buggy for me to want to use as my end-all be-all to AIM. And it's missing a lot of features I've grown used to with AIM 2.0. Other IM clients cost money for something I think should be freely distributed.
To anyone using an i-mate K-Jam, or a QTek 9100... this post simply doesn't apply to you. You picked up your phone unbranded, meaning you have no restrictions from your carrier. And I envy you because of that. But since I'm cheap and I'm getting my Cingular 8125 for $50, I'm trying to figure out some workaround to the situation. Hopefully someone can figure out a hack soon.
MightyMegit ... how certain are you that the program you posted doesn't use texts? Does it use data? I don't have a Wizard yet (hopefully within the next 24 hours), so I'm not able to test it out myself.
Anyway, thanks guys for your help, but I really want my AIM 2.0 back. I wish all you developers luck!!!
thanks for the clarification. i started using the aim 2.0 yesterday.
No wonder i noticed to menus or sign on options. What i do i select "stock quotes" or w.e and that signs me on.
It looks just like aim on pc and has aim sounds so i like the look of it. There just isnt options

Agile Messenger suddenly gone trial

Hey all,
I have been using Agile Messenger since june or so..so far I have downloaded "new version" of the app into my phone twice. The last one is really cool and I have been using it for about two weeks w/o any probs, but when I turned the app on yestreday, it displayed message "Thanks for trying this trial version, you have 7 days left". Is Agile Messenger not free anymore? And if it's not, do you think I could continue using one of the older versions? Thx for any suggestions Longlife
Having the same problem, the subscription fee is pretty high.
Don't know about the old versions...
Eelco
I think I have the old version of Agile. If you guys want, you can try it and let us know if it will work or if we actually have to pay after the trial period.
its not problem its normal agile done same thing with symbian version now they will ask you to pay for windows mobile version. it is undestandable because with agile u use their server but anyway i belive messenger live will be here soon and it will be better than agile, so no need to pay for agile
The old version I had stopped working
I had the old version and had been using that. I started getting messages when I would start it up that a new version was available. I kept saying "no" but eventually after saying that it came back and said I needed to upgrade to the new version if I wanted to continue to use Agile. That's when I finally upgraded, but then when I got the "You have 7 days left" message and looked closer to find that the new version had a monthly charge, I went ahead and removed it from my Universal.
I can somewhat understand them charging for it, and would have been willing to pay a one time purchase fee, or MAYBE a smaller monthly fee, but the rates I saw looked high for just one app. No thanks.

Too bad Thx eveyrone for your answers though I agree that the fees for using Agile are way too high, if it was like 20 USD for the app with all the future upgrades, I would probably buy it but this way... Anyway, just one more question: which free messenger capable of connecting to ICQ would you recommend instead of Agile plz?
No response from Agile
I wrote them a message via the address at the agile website asking if there would be any way to buy the software outright. It has been over a week and there has been no response. I really like the software. I would be willing to pay for it, but I do not like software subscriptions.
I am more bothered by the lack of response to my message though. It shows me that there will be no customer support for a program that they will continue to collect money for.
does the latest version look better on VGA? Still haven't updated my version... They shouldn't charge if it doesn't work well on our devices. I have no problem buyin it as long as it displays properly [I sent agile an email asking about VGA support but did not get a response *no surprises there*]
Good bye Agile
Been using Agile on my Symbian Nokias since 4 years and the same thing happened 2 years ago. Suddenly they asked for monthly subscription of 3 € via SMS or 19 € forever, but locked to the SIM card, I have 4 of them in different countries of Europe so I wrote to them then and they replied like they would let me on all for SIMs but I gave up Nokia as well as Agile on it.
Now I see that they have came up with something even crazier like monthly, HIGH, subscription, charging for the service rather then the software itself!?!
I am sorry, I like Agile very much, but I will never agree to the terms they are asking... and I think that their PPC version is far from ready...
Good bye Agile...
Ok, I tried to find a freeware alternative to Agile Messenger..and guess what? I found one. It's by ICQ.com and it's pretty cool, I didn't fully explore it yet but it seems to offer most of the latest Agile's features. You can download it from here:

I'm sorry, as I only use ICQ, I forgot to mention that this app only supports ICQ, not AIM, Yahoo, MSN or anything else..which is a considerable disadvantage compared to Agile as I now see.
About the CAB file - I don't have it and I didn't manage to find it anywhere, but maybe you will
Aynway, I played with the application a bit and discovered that it:
- doesn't support landscape mode (which is pretty sad)
- supports Invisible, Occupied, DND, N/A and Away statuses (without entering custom status messages though)
- works with groups
- allows you to change your account details
- doesn't let you close conversation windows (at least I didn't find a way to do so..but it's pretty weird I'd say )
- has a cool but probably not so useful feature that downloads latest stock-exchange rates
- has VERY ugly smileys (IMO)
But depsite it's several disadvantages, I'd say it still remains a nice (and free) way to chat with your ICQ contacts on the go.
Oh and btw, if you want an all-in-one IM client and are willing to pay, check this: http://mobile.lockergnome.com/product.asp?id=248
It looks pretty good and you can get it for 40 USD for ever, not like with Agile where you have to pay 30 USD every year. It's still too expensive for me though
I've tried Shape IM+ as well it seems nice but my provider has blocked it! Can't connect using 3G/UMTS/GPRS works fine with WiFi and Activesync passthru. Oh I only use the Yahoo component.
thanks for post up the info
new PPC-based freeware ICQ client on the scene!
Ok, so here's another update on the topic
A few days ago, I discovered that QIP (russian closed-source freeware ICQ client; www.qip.ru) had released a PPC version of their program. I have downloaded it straight away and I must say that it's by far the best ICQ client for the PocketPC platform..well..that's just my opinion but I'm pretty sure most people will agree once they try it out It supports most of the PC-based-QIP's functions including various statuses (incl. invisible, invisible for all, custom statuses with pictures and others), several sets of smileys (standard, animated, text), complete contact information etc. etc. Be sure to check it out on www.qip.ru

MSN/Live Messenger

My operator (Orange UK) has decided not to include live messenger in their ROM. Is that something I can install easily afterward? How would I go about doing this? Do I need to app unlock the phone first? I don't have much experience in installing apps on WM6 so any help appreciated.
Thanks
Hey, i work for Orange and have a touch dual also. Im pretty disapointed that the 'Windows Live' services are missing from the dual, but are present on the Touch.
I was referred by a colleague in the web support call centre that he downloaded the file from a link on this site. (Thats why im here) He found it in the TyTn II forum, but the file is compatible on any Mobile 6 platform... if i find it, i shall post the link for you (if its allowed)
hey, thanks for that. It is a bit of a shame how they removed it from this phone.
As you work for orange, do you know if they are planning to introduce any data tariffs like web n walk? I wouldn't mind paying a tenner extra a month if I could get 1GB of data anytime..

Hey! No worries.. im having problems wading through 178 tyTn II pages... the search feature is utterly useless.
Orange has something called 'Anytime internet' on PAYM. Its £8 per month, and inclused 30MB iirc. When it first launced (back in August) it was unlimited usage upto 1GB.
The Wireless Data Card for Laptops tariffs have just been updated to compete with 3's cheap plans, but i hope the new data plans for handsets happens soon.
Although, i get mine all free
I'm on the £8 a month tarriff, but to be honest 30MB doesn't really cut it compared to Tmobile and 3's tariffs.
Would you mind keeping us posted of when you think these tariffs might be upgraded for handsets? You're lucky you get all yours for free!
Now back to MSN Messenger - i've got a feeling we may not be able to install it even if we wanted to ask the phone might be 'app locked', and as far as I know no ones got a hack for that yet.. or I could be wrong..
I found the application on this forum, just tested it and it works on my Orange Touch Dual!
in1234, i will keep you posted.

2. Connect your device using Active Sync. And use the 'Explore' feature on AC and navigate to you 'My Documents' folder.
3. Disconnect the device and navigate to your documents.
