I've been looking around using the search tool for good instant messaging apps. But all the threads I've found were old ones. I want something free and new that can make at least hotmail (windows live messenger) work on Wi Fi. Because the windows mobile messenger refuses to connect via wi fi.
I've heard Beejive IM is good but I want to know the alternatives.
Oh and I use a Touch Pro.
Have you tried Qip PDA? It's free and i like it
Did you tried BeejiveIM (Multimessenger)?
Currently beta so it's free. Works for me.

all the good IM clients with multiple protocols aren't free such as IM+ and mundu.if you want free and don't use memory,get unlimited text plan and set aim/yim to always show u on mobile while you arent logged on a client or pc

After flicking around on google, i have found a personally tested method of getting msn messenger working in WM5.
It fully supports the rotation that occurs when you open the keyboard on the TyTN.
http://node13.org/pda/
Go here (my own site), and do the following:
1. Connect your WM5 device to your pc.
2. Run msn22.exe (Will installed the PPC2002 version of MSN Messenger)
3. Run msn23.exe (Will instal the PPC2003SE version with the latest updates)
4. Reset your device
Voila, you now have a nice working copy of MSN Messenger.
Enjoy!
Just out of curiosity:
What's the difference between "MSN Messenger on Pocket PC" and "Pocket Messenger"?
Thanks for that!

For some reasons, every time I tried to run your msn23 from my computer (connected to the device of course), it showed the InstallShield 1645: and it stopped there. I have also tried msn22 and the result is the same. BTW, I have done the unlock CID already if it would matter at all.
Any suggestions?

Yes, I don't know why Microsoft have it so obscurely referenced, not easy to track it down. By the way also works well for me too.

Well now that's a tricky question... welllll ok yes we are, at least I am. The one that's like the old MSN for mobile but not quite if you know what I mean!! And the one that shows as Live.com on this link http://ideas.live.com/, In case there's confusion "MSN Messenger is now Windows Live Messenger" hence the use of the name Live.com.
Mike
you try this agilemessenger
in my tytn it works very well:
- he automatically rotates with the opening of the keyboard
- it notices all the emoticons
- it works with msn, icq, yaooh etc. accounts
- allows to make a photo with my TYTN and to send it
- and it also has the push to talk!!!
It's phenomenalanything
...else other than microsoft!!!
Enjoy

him, agile messenger is fabulous! to try for believing!
Is Agile Messenger really free? On their web site they only have 7 day trial versions after which you pay and through the nose...

Try not to get too hooked unless you want to be spending up big.

Free on WM5 "for the moment"
As it is slightly buggey or at least was, seems much more stable these days.
Yes is Free!!!
Where is it, it says that it's not available yet, the messenger.
Only windows live homepage.
Thank you.

Forgive my idiocy, but was Agile at some point "free"? And when did it become not free?
agile was free for ages, they called it a trial but it never expired.
noticed it wasnt about 6 months ago or so i guess they decided to start trying to charge people for it.
also try http://www.ebuddy.com/ which is a web based messenger app allows MSN and yahoo on most wap enabled mobiles.
i still prefer IM+ but thats not free.

Search For Slicks Im
I think this is a good program to try
EQO Mobile. It's a messaging app that lets you connect with aim, msn, gmail, and I think yahoo. It's free, and it looks pretty nice. Again, it's called "EQO"
I've been using palringo and it plugs into 6 IMs, including msn, yahoo, aim and google
nice interface too.
Also does voice and picture sending
IM+ is a good application as it has all the usual suspects including MSN, ICQ, Yahoo, etc etc, and it works on WM5, WM6 & WM6.1
Last time i checked palringo isn't freeware.

I was curious about a couple of the programs in this thread, so I started looking, but haven't installed yet. I was also wondering if palringo was free. I hit their faq website and found:
How Much Does Palringo Cost?
Palringo is free and will remain free for non commercial users.
Commercial users may be interested in the benefits of an Enterprise account. See here for more information.
Palringo connects through the internet so if you pay for data usage, such as on a mobile phone, check with your network operator for pricing information.

I loaded palringo, and it does seem very cool. I like it better than slick. And it has some features that look really cool. Like, groups with group chat and voice messaging. Now I just need to get some buddies to load it up on their windows mobile and blackberry phones so we can give it a good workout.

Palringo FTW!!
I know there was an old thread on here but I could not find it, so, forgive me to ask again:
What is the best Messenger application for WM5 / WM6?
I love the look and work of AGILE MESSENGER but the price is way too high for a program like this! Also: users get routed through their own servers to 'validate' the lisence. This causes time delay and additional data trafic each time you connect and in a long run you pay more than you would have to if you pay per data volume.
It would be great to find a program what does at least the main 4: AOL, ICQ, MSN, YAHOO. What do you guys use?
You could try Octrotalk.
Useful info here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323654
you can try look for IM+.
this messenger can connect to msn, yahoo, google, jabber, etc...
if i'm not mistaken they also have a version which can connect to skype. but i'm not sure with this.
fring does all of them with the exceptio of Yahoo. Very light weight and supports voice on all. www.fring.com

not tested just severeal things that i know exist: anglie messenger, fring and jimm
Does anyone know of Windows Live Messenger being available to download / install from a third party?
3 Mobile have apparently bundled it with their Heros http://www.info-resource.org.uk/htc_hero_with_spotify_contract.html
Frank.
Ebuddy or fring, personally prefer ebuddy, fring has a crap ui
edit: though if anyone can upload the apk for the 3 client here, i would like to take a look if possible.
i think Nimbuzz is the best solution...best UI IMHO.

I wonder if it's the same IM app that T-Mobile has on some of their Android devices, which is actually a google-made program. It uses SMS instead of data, and AFAIK, no one's got it to work on a non-TMobile phone/network. (Although maybe 3 Mobile has!)
I personally like Hi MSN. It isn't the greatest program ever, but it gets the job done. I don't like using eBuddy/Palringo, because you have to create an ebuddy account, the attach your MSN account to it. Yeah yeah, it's useful if you use lots of IM clients, but I don't.

The TMo version can use data over WiFi, but reverts to SMS over cellular conntections for all protocols bar GTalk. It is a specifically code limitation in the application itself, because back in my G1 days there was a hacked version available that circumvented this and allowed IM over 3G/GPRS.
Personally, I use Meebo.

I agree, Nimbuzz is better than Ebuddy or Fring. And it also does Skype VOIP.
Nimbuzz is the best i've seen. it lets you talk to contacts from several IM protocols, current release includes:
Yahoo!
WML
Skype
Facebook
Google Talk
AIM
MySpace
StudiVZ
SchuelerVZ
Gadu Gadu
Hyves
Giovani
-edit-
It lists all contacts from all the protocols you selected at the same time, which is awesome.
Cheers for your input everyone. I've been using HiMSN, I'm going to give Nimbuzz a go from your recommendations.
nimbuzz seems to run in the background, but when i look for it in task manager, it doesnt show up
can someone please backup the 3 WLM client with AppManager and post it somewhere (rapidshare, mediafire etc)?
Ebuddy works great.

I think there isn't, you could get the Windows messenger app instead of the web version, just search Google, that version is great, looks like pc and is fast.
Well for gtalk
ie only gmail chat
i use fring
google search it
runs in background
also has twitter,yahoo,msn n more things but doesnt have facebook instant messenger service
for tht i use fim (facebook instant messenger)
fring needs u to register first
its free, so register a fring acc
im from india, gprs (edge) isnt very reliable here
if my connection goes, i dont know why but fring crashes
even fim crashes!
check them out
they arent troublesome
can be removed without any pain
i use Parlingo its cross platform
Used it on my Elf was great ran in the background and popped up like a text message.
palringo.com
Nimbuzz
You can try also numbuzz. Its freeware , it can connect to Yahoo! , Skype, Aol, Windows live and much more. The only problem is that is kinda slow on my Touch.
palringo
I like Palringo.. Really nice app.. supports multiple accounts log in. Using 2 yahoo with it.

yeah.. i agree. use parlinggo, i already try all but parlinggo is the best for chat.
Palringo is definitely the best. It also works with a push server, meaning your messages get received by the palringo servers and then sent back to you when you're available. This is particularly useful if you're using an unreliable data connection (IE: Third world country)
It would always crash on my elfin under winmo 6.0. But after I upgraded to the Onyx winmo 6.5 rom it works like a charm.
