Hay all,
I decied to venture an try an use the built in MSN on the HD But Ive found some problems.
I've search the forums and can't find anything related to it.
My HD has both Messenger & Windows Live installed. Which 1 do I use?
Here are my problems:
1. Once I click sign in the load icon freezes an I can leave it for up to 5 mins an nothing happens.
when I go to the home screen an go to the drop down menu to close it, it suddenly shows it's signed in.
2. It first came up when I used it, could not syn my contacts, any reason why?
3. It only shows 4 contacts online when I know theres atleast 30 online. Is thsi related tothe above?
4. Could this all be due to low signel (2 bars)?
I'm only trying this on mobile internet an not wi-fi atm as I'm at work
Thanks
Hey there.
I hate the standard msn myself, I would highly recommend Palringo. Great notification system, low memory, and the text that you can see/space to type is really properly done aswell. Works the best for me after all the numerous msn clients I tried.
Hay bud,
Thanks. It actualy somehow started to work fine dispite after the first time my entired HD slowed down an wouldn't do anything lol
I now know what you mean by memory
I mtie give the one you mentioned a try tho - cheers
Try to update Windows Live. I experienced similar problems you mentioned. But after updating it works fine again for me.

Alternatively I would recommend Nimbuzz if you are using more than one IM or SIP account.

Who's tried this? I think it just became available recently. A friend of mine told me about it and he liked it, so he told me. Cause we're both trying to find an instant messenger program that works good for AIM.
Here..

I think it f'ed up my phone. I uninstalled it and now the phone crashes every 20 minutes and needs a hard reboot. The app was cool though
I don't see how it can **** your phone up, lol. But yeah, it's probably the best AIM app i've used so far.
is it better than JiveTalk? because that is the best one i've used, i haven't tried this new AIM one though

Yes, I think so. I used JiveTalk too. Just before I tried this new AIM.
it seems really slow to me. and my buddies aren't alphabetical. i guess i'll stay with JiveTalk.
What? Your buddies appear in the order you add them in. That's how AIM is.
i know it is. i haven't used AIM in years, the ads, spyware, near impossible uninstalls have left me using 3rd party clients. every single 3rd party client i have used organizes your buddies alphabetically. AIM still lacks this feature. i love it, i know where all my friends are and where to find them no matter who is online.
and i don't know how exactly AIM work, on my phone it had my friend that i added in december listed first, over people i've had on there for years. i personally think it is just random, or is in order by signup date.
actually, if you right click on a buddy group, you can organize groups alphebetically
when did they add that? i've been trying to do that for years and never found an option.
hi
well i havent tried the AIM beta version.But I did run into this, PALRINGO,vocal IM for mobile phones...Has anyone used this. It says its also free, is it, because i dont have no text plan nor internet plan, the only thing thats connecting me to the internet is thru WiFi
TIA
palringo is good. uses data, unless you connect to wifi before running the program.
i prefer jivetalk over palringo, but palringo allows you to send pictures.
Palringo isn't bad. It disconnects ALOT though, which I hate. That was the MAIN reason I stopped using it. Other than that, there's really nothing wrong with it. I liked Jivetalk better than that though.
always connected program
so is there any program to stay connected to your wifi all day long???because i hate when my phone goes on standby the wifi turns off with it. I know it takes up battery but it will be okie... i want to stay logged into my parlingo acount all the time!
adding to my comment above.. Is there a IM program that can have an 'always on presence'???thanks guys!
I have used slick by Lonely Cat Games
http://www.lonelycatgames.com/?app=slick
It works great with maybe an error here or there. I did have issues using it with a UI program.. I think it was UL
beta 3 is out
Try Jive talk or Palringo. work well.
Hi all, looking for a good all in one IM app for the HD2.
I have been using in the past
Palringo
Nimbuzz
Live Messenger
All are pretty riddled with bugs and not meant for touch screen, any ideas?.
Mainly for MSN and Facebook.
I like Beejive
what kind of bug are you experiencing with palringo? The only thing I hate about palringo is how it downloads some update and always fail to load it. But other than that, it's probably the most reliable one I've use and far, far less memory hungry as the other IM programs.
A few issues with palringo being it keeps disconnecting, the interface is rather poor, and it does not update contacts properly, but your right it seems to be the best around so far.
I love the nimbuzz interface on the nokia 5800, but the wm version sucks.
I will give this programe a go thanks, although it does not do facebook
I prefer Pigeon. It's the best fingerfreindly and nice looking im ive ever seen. But sometimes it causes a crash on the unlock screen. Im pretty sure its the app causing the crash when its displayed and you lock screen. so before you lock the screen you better press the home button first
I don't like the fact that most new messengers use their proxy server. Which means you simply give all your passwords to third party.
So I use rather old-school, but working, IM-plus.
also a big fan of nimbuzz, the only real problem is you have to use the scroll bar rather than flicking your thumb. I just tried out Beejive, i like it but its missing facebook chat.
Beejive just crashes constantly, so thats a no go
I am using Palringo and I am really happy with it. It supports all the IMs I need and I did not notice any problems. Worked well on my Omnia, works perfect on my HD2.
hi,
i use im+, you have to pay for it, but its worth it's money. supporting lots of protocols an working smooth on advantage and hd2.
mad.
Tried IM+ Its pretty good, but i like to view online contacts all at once, this just sits on the all accounts screen, annoying.
I think i will have to stick with palringo for now.

palringo (free not bad look gd but cannot save history unless u pay $$ to them)
ebuddy (it using jblend, dont create own icon)
im+ (nt bad, but i dont display the default user profile name)
Hi All,
I am going to be getting my new HD2 tomorrow (CANT WAIT) at the moment I have a TP2 and need something faster thing drives me mad sometimes.. Anyway back to the point I am going to be using Microsoft Myphone to sync everything up and then back down to my HD2 and basically wanted to know if this will work well, any problems experienced from other users etc.
Thanks in advance,
Charles Hurst.
I moved from a diamond to an hd2. the process was slow because I moved all my photos that way - but all my contacts, messages etc got moved. Apps and settings won't go though.

Yes mate - I literally could not recommend it more!
I went from a Touch HD to the HD2 and I'd already been using MyPhone as an automated backup service for a couple of months, so I was confident it would work.
It's also handy for when I flash new ROMs onto the phone. I have it backup everything except the storage card, and it works a treat.
I assume you'll still have the TP2 in case you do anything wrong, so you won't actually lose anything. It's real easy anyway, so I doubt that.
As mentioned above though, it obviously doesn't do apps. Also, if you can, connect to Wifi before doing it, as it can take a while 1st time.
Other than that, welcome to the fun that is HD2
Yes, I second the "use wifi". You may also find it time out now and again, I did. But it picks up where it left off.
If you're near a PC though I recommend that for pictures and such like, and using MyPhone for contacts, messages, notes blah de blah
Great
Great many thanks guys, only worry I have is that it does not put my text back correctly with each contact as I had this before with SBS backup (I think its called) all the text were just everywhere. Guess I will wait and see, cant wait to show off my HD2 to mates who have Iphones LOL
Thanks again,
Charles Hurst.
I showed my HD2 to a mate who has an iPhone, and his exact words were:
"Jesus, I thought MY phone was big!"
It's a lovely weighty size
Anyway, MyPhone shouldn't garble your contacts at all - same format in both phones!
Just syncing as we speak *fingers crossed* looks good so far though, the phone seems amazing and so fast its f**king incredible compared to using the TP2...
One thing thats odd it never come with facebook app on Vodafone but cant be hard to find.
Thanks again for your help.

Depending on what you want to do with facebook, you may not need it. Using the default integration with Sense, you can link your contacts to facebook so you can see their status updates (you have to actually go to the page where these are shown though - there's no notifications), set your own status, upload photos, browse friends' albums.
If you want more, there's always the facebook app, and http://m.facebook.com which is a nice lite version of the site.
Hi all
Sorry to post about this again, Samsamuel has been really helpful but we haven't managed to resolve the issue and I think my last thread title was missleading.
A few days ago I went to the friends tab in the Facebook app and selected to 'refresh'. Unlike in the other tabs I didn't get the 'red, blue, yellow, green egg timer thingy', it just sat there until my friends were updated. However, once the update completed I was left with two copies of each friend. One with their new status listed, one with their old.
Now no matter how many times I refresh, I don't get the egg timer and I still have their old status as well as their current.
I have tried un / reinstalling with no joy.
After an uninstall, does facebook leave any files behind that could be getting picked up be the new install, thus carrying the problem over to the fresh install?
Any suggestions would be gratefully received!
Is thi the new facebook cab?? wat version?

just to let you know I never see the 4 color timer on this screen either...not that it helps...just thought you should know.
Its the version available from Windows Marketplace v1.007 I believe.
Mine was working until a few days ago, now like yourself, when i update (i dont get the coloured icon as well) but it does say updating but then displays the old update.
In addition, it will show the small thumbnail photo for peoples photo albums but when you select them, it says "no photos or videos found".
*got mine working again by start / settings / social networks - facebook (turning off then on again so it resynced). worked for me

You/we need to wait fore a update version. this problem of Facebook exist now some several weeks (after thy did some updates on there server!)
Is there any official Statementfrom facebook when a new verson will be available? I hink there should be a schedule from facebook side after the crash a few weeks ago.
In the meantime I am use the Facebook Instant Messenger (fim) which is working quite good beside messaging also for accessing facebook. Try it. Find it under mosko.mobi, google it you will find it.
Since the installation of android 2.3.3 on my I9000
Snap N Go Fails..
it connects with my PC then the camera goes on
it stays on for couple sec then the application closes
without a FC warning
Is Snap and Go compatible with BETA 2.3 ???
jje
i dont know...mate
maybe it is the camera bug or something that makes it close
I can also confirm that I get the exact same reaction since 2.3.3 upgrade for SGS. (Upgrade from cell phone carrier). Its a big shame because Snap N Go was/is a terrific app. Have read on net that others have same problem. Also have lost daily briefing app.
Please HELP!
i even cant find it in samsung apps!

Yes I notice it's not there anymore too.
Same issue on the same configuration, you are not alone !
same problem
come on developer type people
this is a briliant, just briliant app... and i want it back
won't anyone help?
what's about solution?
Wow tried it and this happens to me too.
Lame Snap N Go was a great easy way to transfer files between computers without the hassle of using a samba share. (It even worked without a wifi network around, just connect the laptop to mobile AP.)
I wonder if we can get a log that will give insight into the problem?
It just doesn't work on Gingerbread apparently..
Also, samsung's taken it off of "Samsung Apps"..
Such an amazing app, its so less known!
Can't any developer help here? Please!
"apk" and the "desktop-application" file are both still available on the net,
and i strongly believe its just a minor bug(with the new camera) that's the problem, as the app runs fine(connects with desktop client and all) till the camera tries to load up
