i got an atom exec right now
i'm in USA, southern california. i cant choose USA, t-mobile in network, i cant send mms. i dont have internet, i got a plan, "Send and receive any type of message you want, in any combination you want. Text, IM, picture, or video messages" how do i use IM without the internet? i got the msn messenger thing.
can anybody help me please?
i've been looking and searching at wiki, but i couldnt find anything
oh, and i think my atom exec is unlocked already because i'm using t-mobile in USA with it, but i'm not sure, will upgrading it to wm6 change it back?
i wanna know about that too. i used to have a cell phone that i can log on to IM, and chat as text message. Is there an application that replicates that function on my O2 atom life? I have to connect wirelessly to my home internet to chat on IM.

Can someone tell me if they have been able to configure the XDA II Blackberry to work with TMO in the US? Is this even possible...
No I dont think so yet. Uless you can connect to the UK blackberry enterprise server. You might want to go to their website find that link and set it up there. It might work anywhere your phone is (i.e. if you are a business travel) The US Blackberry webclient is set up right now only for Blackberry decvices right now i belive. Also the current server set up does not alllow picture transfer. Limmited file trypes. only word, excel, powerpoint i belive. Blackberry has always been weak in the attachment department. I think this is the reson you dont really see it on the handheld side yet. Im not sure what O2 UK has cooked up or if they are running the newest implimwntation of the Blackberry enterprise server. But where ever you are to get a @o2.blackberry.com or @tmo.blackberry.com address and store and forward someone has to have the BB server, and have it configured to support the device type you have.
In the mean time some interesting things.
1. the Webclient service ONLY pushes mail to your device every 15 minutes. So nothing more special then the PPC can do already. You can set your device to poll for new messages every 15 minutes. (I think in the end the BB webclient implimentation is going to be a let down, nothing new, nothing special, just something, more to sell you.)
2. If you are a member of ClubImate sign up for clubmail. You'll get access to an echange server that can be set up on the device side to get your mail as it arrives. Basicly the same thing as BB except its sync'd not just dumped onto your device for safe keeping like BB.
Just an FYI.
Unfortunatly the most stable solution I have used so far is the HP iPAQ 6315 mail trigger system. Seems to work the most reliably over all the others. The big downer is it costs SMS charges everytime you get an email, is near impossible to port to a non-iPAQ6315,
but works flawlessly.
Yes you can if your SIM is blackberry enabled. ie. If you currently have a corp blackberry device, you can take the SIM out and pop in into a XDA II with blackberry connect installed. I'm receiving Corp and bwc e-mails on my XDAII updated with the latest O2 firmware xx.181. You need to download the balckberry configuration software from O2 or search the forum as some kind soul uploaded the software here. For corp e-mail, you need to have connection to exchange server and chnage the PIN number of the device since it is based on your IMEI.
Good luck!

Thanks David.
I have 1.7xx.181 with Blackberry Software installed. I have a Blackberry SIM.
How do I get the PIN Changed?
Finally got it working...
The only problem I have is that the outgoing mail... It goes through the device hits my Corporate Lotus Notes but doesnt reach the recipient..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=68068#68068
This is the thread with bbconfig files for lotus notes and exchange. Check to see if you have the service books on your XDA II. Did you have blackberry functionality via notes before?
May be your IT poeple hard coded the blackberry PIN to your account
Managed to get BlackBerry functionality running on my XDA2. I call it now XDA2Berry...
Quick questions I am hoping someone can help with :
--------
Regular BlackBerry synchronizes calendar & contacts to the local device. I do not think this is happning on the XDA. Any ideas on if it is possible and how to activate it?
When a message is received I hear a short beep. I tried changing the setting for Sound Event called "Inbox : New EMail Message" and add Vibration to the alert but I see that this makes no difference. Seems like BlackBerry New Message is a different event altogether that is not listed in the Sounds applet. Any ideas on changing the alert tone & activating vibrate alert?
Last but not least, I understand on a real BB device you get to surf the net under the BB GRPS plan. In my case this would give me unlimited local usage. However on the XDA I am unable to use the Blanberry,NET APN to connect for regular web surfing. I am still defaulting to my carriers regular GPRN APN for Internet connectivity. Any idea if it is possible to use the Blackberry.Net for PIE access?
Thanks & Best Regards

Not currenttly possible. Tasks, events and contacts ability will apparently be there for XDA when BES 4 is released

No, but I too would love to know!

Same for me I think it's not currently possible for that - I did ask.
Thanks for your kind reply. Any idea when BES4 is coming out? Regards
I just got myself a second hand MDA on T-Mobile, and I'm on flext web'n'walk price plan. I have a few problems with it and I hope I can get some answers
I got preinstalled pocket MSN that works fine on GPRS. However, I use mostly Yahoo Messanger and ICQ and they would only work at home, where I have the BT Total Broadband (with the wireless hub). Outside the house they would not connect. I use 2 messengers to go online, one is Agile Messenger, and the other is IM+. Both work fine on WiFi as I said, but would not connect via GPRS.
Does anyone here use that phone and the messengers to help me out here? I had the K800i and it worked fine with the Agile Messenger, now I feel lost
PS: The Internet Explorer works fine on it, so it can connect via GPRS, its just none of the messengers that I've got.
Any advice would be apreciated. Thanks.
PS2: Any ideas for other messengers that support Yahoo and ICQ?
oz has instant mess
Dont use OZ, EVER. It dosnt use GPRS to send messages, it uses text messeges and its crazy slow. If you want your instant messengers to work make sure your GPRS connection is already alive and connected before signing in. The messengers wont start a internet connetion but will use the active ones.

I know the wizard comes with MSN, but the usage comes off of your MediaNet (using cingular) amount. Is there a MSN application that runs like the AIM application; runs off text messages?
Also I heard that ATT now provides an IM client. I can't seem to find a link to download it.
search this this forum for windows live messenger for mobiles ..install it ..hope that will work on cingular. it uses GRPS/data transfer.
Yeah, I know it'll work, though I don't have a data plan at the moment.
I have AIM, which uses data to connect (if using gprs) but the sent and recieved go against my text messages.
Does anyone know if the new IM application from the Tilt (which supports MSN, Yahoo and AOL) has been ripped? Can I install it on my 8525 which has the official AT&T WM6? I searched this forum as well as the Kaiser forum and didn't see any mention of it ...
Rip it yourself....

On the 8525 Open Internet Explorer and type device in the address field and hit enter. This will bring you to your Media Net Home Page. Select Mail and Messaging then select Mobile IM. Voila.
Problems with 8525 IM

I still have the AIM 2.0 for Mobile - however, it is too large to attach here, so, if you want, PM me your email address and I will send it to you. It is the free English UK AIM for Mobile 2.0 if that is what you're looking for. It connects using your active internet connection.
I just wonder if another Messenger application wouldn't be better? Such as IM++ or Agile Messenger?
You can get it off their website or check my signature for alternatives (such as Slick, Jivetalk, etc).
Yeah it is as easy as re-downloading it from AIM.com
