Good morning Chaps and Chappesses.
I hope everyone is well and happy. I am really enjoying using my Ameo but I cannot remember how to re-enable pocket MSN which t-moblie appear to have removed from my device.
I had this same problem on an older PPC I had but I cannot remember what I did to resolve this!
I had pocket MSN setup on my MDA pro and #I found it extremely usefull for checking mail and msn messenger.
Can anyone advise me on getting this back on my device?
Mny thanks!!

if lots of you are interested, i can post a windows message live up here, it's the next generation of pocket MSN.
I'm interested
WOWZERS!!!
PLEASE!!!
I would love a copy of the live messenger!
If you could post it before someone decides its a bad idea and blocks out posts
I am rather annoyed that I cannot have my hotmail messages delivered into my inbox like I did on my MDA pro.
That saved time and effort logging into hotmail through opera.
I guess I will not be installing another T-mobile Rom on this device but I had better find a copy of the HTC advantage Rom istead for TOMTOM and pocket MSN.
I await the goodness of :Live messenger !!
thanks!
Does the Live messenger keep your MSN contacts isolated, or does it still import all your phone contacts and add them as contacts (like it did when i once installed it on universal, prompting my immediate uninstall)
Also, does it suffer from the same problem with the winxp live messenger where some of the more recent contacts you add never appear online, even though they are online ?
Interested!!

Yes please mate.
Ooops! My bad. Just saw the dedicated thread for it. Thanks Wu.
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.

Nice link. I was trying the IM+ Trial, but this looks even better cause it's free.

Is there really no other workaround? I want to use MSN Messenger and use my stupid retarded emoticons...
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?

Wouldn't there be duplicate entries as well anyway?
Bump. Anyone got a good alternative to recommend?
Any "hack" or something like that?
Never gonna let you down, never gonna say goodbye...
Anyone?
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?
Im having a real issue with my contacts on my new hd2.
Outlook displays them perfectly but my hd2 for some reason lists them last/first which i find very annoying.
Anyone any ideas or solutions?
Cheers

I found out hat the HTC interface sorts contacts using the outlook field DISPLAY AS, which bt default is LAST, FIRST.
I had to go thru all my contacts in outlook an dchange the DISPLAY AS field into FIRST LAST

Hi thanks for posting the cab, but for some reason its not working for me.
I've installed > restarted the phone > went into contacts, but still the same e.g. Lasr, First.
Please could give a brief explanation on how to get it to rearrange the contacts?
Many thanks.
...
After you install the .cab file you have to go in to the program folder and start the app that was installed. But if you sync ur contacts with a google account they will go back to last,first name after each sync.
Thanks!
I didn't realise it installed an accessible application, I thought it was just a fix, doh! lol
Thanks again.

myPhone is a 2-way sync. This means if your contacts are on the website, they should be sent to your phone when you sync.
If not, either your contacts were never sent to the website, or they are stored in the website's Archive.
If you can't find them on the website, your contacts may be gone

I am on the website now and i see my contacts, they are not on the archive...i dont know what im doing wrong.. i synced it again and nothing is happenin...so frustrating!
Thanks to all!!! problem solved...i had to go into my settings and uncheck the auto sync with outlook..I appreciate all the comments
and how do you do that?
i have that same problem and i don't know what to do...
Ok, did anybody try:
Missing Sync?
I want to know if it really nicely syncs Contacts and Calendar with Outlook.
So none of you syncs the device with Outlook?
Or PC Companion does?
I would be very grateful for information.
Anyone?!......
I'm not a outlook user but maybe this can help: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gappssync
you are syncing with google, so try to sync outlook with google
Someone once recommended using HTC Sync, and even though I didn't have an HTC phone it worked!
But I mainly use CompanionLink.
This is a great site to do some research:

Thanks but it works only for people with payed servers.
Doesn't work like Hotmail Connector which is great.

No, it's only on your PC - no need to install anything on the Arc.

OTOH, I would like to hear from people who've tried both MyPhoneExplorer and Missing Sync.
Gave it a quick tryout. Looks good. One thing bugs me through. It access sweetcandy.com (or sth like that...) on installation...? I also remember on the Market comments one reviewer said it installed unwnated ads... Umhum...
What about PCCompanion?

Missing Sync works with Outlook
Yes...I've used Missing Sync with Outlook 2007, but it also works with 2003 and 2010. It allows me to sync without putting my data in Google.

Just registered with a single post just to tell you the program works... Ummhum...
Heh thanks!
I'm an Android newbie and missed my WMDeviceCenter for sync with Outlook 2007 calender and contacts alot.
I've found MyPhoneExplorer and apart from some errors with repeating appointments it works as it should, and besides that...it's free .
