Guys, anyone has the file to share? Mainly what happened was that I choose the option to sync all msn contacts into the diamond when i signed in FIRST on msn messenger via the phone. And realised after a while it was actually a hassle to have all these email addresses in my contact list on the phone. So what I did was that I deleted the list from the phone and did not realise its actually in sync with my computer as well. So when I connected the hp to my computer last night to transfer some files over, the "ZERO MSN contact list" got updated on my computer and so I lost all contacts on my computer. It was like a freak accident.
But luckily I managed to get the contacts by sourcing around. But now my worry is that if I were to connect my phone to the PC again, it would update ths system and thus delete all MSN contacts on the computer again. Any idea how I can change this setting on the phone? or by re-installing msn mesenger on the phone again? If so, does anyone have the MSN folder to share, because its a default file from the phone itself.
Thanks for all the help...
Cheers
Hi,
You can uninstall the LiveMessenger application but it would be easier to switch identity (so that there is no profile for hotmail user) and log in to application again. When you do so untick the selection of 'merge contacts'.
I went through the same grief!
You can download the app from Dutty http://www.duttythroy.net/download-area.html?task=view.download&cid=24

Hi everyone,
I have recently installed the Windows Live Mobile, it was working perfectly but now it seems that there is a problem with the 'synchronise'.
When I click the synchronise option, the email can be synchronised, but not the Contacts & Email. It always fails. also, when you open the Messenger, it always no contacts online, but actually there are.
Anyone has any ideas of this?
Thx in advance...
The online contacts appear after ~ 10-20 sec. As for the sync, I do not know.
I have the same email sync problem. I figured it's because my perticipation is still pending for the offical beta enrolment. I downloaded the file from another source so I thought it maybe there server seeing that I'm not part of the beta program yet. Are you part of the beta program or did you do like me and get it from the forums?
My only compaint about this version is they still didn't fix the issue that when you sign in to messenger the first time it adds all your MSN Messenger contacts to your address book, which they are already there so now there are duplicates. I have there full contact card with all there details and now a second one that just has there email and messenger name. It should be smart enough to see that that email addresss and IM name already exist in my address book and link to it instead of creating another one.
Yeah I got the messenger from the froum also.
I have tried to login the Windows live mobile using another ID, it works fine, but just not mine.
I dont know...
I don't like how WLM mobile takes all your messenger contacts and automatically puts them into your 'contacts' on the phone, which ends up in my contacts folder in Outlook. That's horrible, I don't want the two mixed up and now I have no choice, mix them up, or don't use it?
Go delete them from my contacts folder in outlook, that deletes them from my messenger contacts as well!!
Pocket MSN never forced your messenger contacts to be placed or synced into your 'contacts'.
I got that problem too

My messenger contacts suddenly appeared as offline. Strange. No reboot or relogon could fix it. They could IM me but I could not contact them. I suspect that this has to do with the beta, maybe they simply block old betas to force the legitimate beta testers to use the latest version.
Hi guys,
Can someone point me in the direction of this download? I registered with MS Connect but havent had anything back from them yet.
WLM works well on my N91 but i dont have it on my TYTN
Thanks
Same offline contacts problem here...

Doubt you'll hear anything from them, I registered a few months ago and for some reason their registration system was TOTALLY cocked up, so I ended up with a mangled registration and they point blank refused to offer me any useful help.
So now I can log into MS Connect, but I can't see the right live beta tests to join them properly... It sucks. Guess I'll just have to wait on this one.
is the latest WLM on the FTP i couldn't find it? can somebody mirror it somewhere?
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.

That's a GREAT question!
I was just thing about that on this moment...
So, are there any tricks to avoid that the msn live contacts mess up with the phone contacts, besides installing the old version...?

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.

3 options?...
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
right to the problem -the live messenger on wm 6.1 problem is dead ,killed by tommymarsh

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.
@ adotan : Thanks for sharing.
Thanks

guys, install flexmail 2007.
and be happy with no more account loss.
i used the mail repair app, it works but my phone seem to freeze a lot lately. im not sure though if the cause is that program, but the freezing begins when i turn off the wifi then when i turn it on again, it takes a very long time to connect and opening other programs on the phone would cause much longer freezing, which just started happening now after i used the mail repair thingy. i even tried deleting the app, but the problem is still there. help guys.

Anyway, I once had a sync problem with windows live and was unable to fix it. Seems that it´s a bug in the program so I had to dump everyting and start all over with a fresh install!
Thanks for the reply. I had to delete the account and re-install it. The crazy thing is that it shows a few names in the contacts list of MSN IM until I delete and reinstall...TJ
Sounds like ur sorted, thought I would post this anyway.
Found it on www.htc.com, only thing is you must register to be able to access this link. You can do that without a device S/N though.

Fix for Windows Live Messenger (Online contacts not showing) - for English version
If contacts appear as offline in Windows Live Messenger even though they are online, please download this fix (.exe file) and install it on your device to solve the problem.
Note: Only the 18125.0.2.3 OS build and earlier versions have this problem and need to be installed with the hot fix. Later versions do not need to be installed with the hot fix. To check the OS version on your device, tap Start > Settings > System tab > About.
I searched the Leo forum and couldn't find any answers
I'm having a not so cool problem with my contacts and people folders..
Everybody has a double entry I had the same problem before and after installing a new ROM, so the installation might not be the problem afterall. I sync my Leo with Windows Mobile Device Center and with Microsoft My Phone. What can I do ? How can I return to just one entry for everybody ?
10x all in advance
PS : I think I'm doing something, cause with my Fujitsu Siemens N520 - Windows Mobile 5 ( I dont know for sure ) I clearly remember having once the same problem
What view?
Are you viewing both sim & contacts? Need to set to view 1 or the other, not both. I view contact, it shows more info..
I had the same problem after installing new rom and syncing with my pc.
There are manual ways of fixing this, but I think the easiest way is to use Microsoft My Phone. It has an option to check for duplicate contacts and delete them.
But be careful not to be left with empty contact list on your phone. Like I did once... Hopefully I had synced my contacts on my office computer.
Try this...Go to - Phone/All People/Menu/View/ select Contacts or SIM
I use direct push from my exchange server and i had this when sycing to my pc using activesync for the first time. The problem is caused by the phone telling the pc that the contacts are more upto date that the pc's. To get around this change the activesync options to "pc overwirtes the device" (it's not exactly written like that but i guess your smart enough to figure it out) and delete all the duplicate contacts from the phone and pc. You won't get it again. If you are seeing the contacts from your sim card should notice the icon for them is differnet. If this is the case then follow the instructions given above to disable sim contact viewing.
There is free software to cope with this prob on freewarepocketpc and also in SKTools or PocketMechanic.
Del doubles on phone (check bef proceed), clear contacts complelety on PC and Myphone and then resync. Worked well for me.
use the attached, works a treat on the HD2.it can be used to remove duplicate calender entires too. Thanks to the developer, cant remember where I got the cab from.
I use dupededupe.
Work very well and is very easy.
Only 72KB
Thanks all for the responses
Sorry for posting so late, I was away for a couple of days
Eventually, I used My Phone - I entered the site, checked for duplicates - and deleted all the duplicates, and afterall, I synced my phone. Fortunately, it worked fine
10x again, Ive just downloaded the little software and I'll keep them if the problem reoccurs .
10x again!
Good luck all!
