I have a HTC Touch Pro, and im looking for a few programs.
First off, is MSN. With the new MSN for the desktop, it allows loggin on in multi-locations. The MSN on the Touch Pro doesn't support this. I was wondering where I can get a new version of MSN or another IM program that does support multi-locations.
Second is security. Is there a program that wipes your phone (Documents, Contacts, E-mails, SMS, etc.) when the wrong password is entered more than a certain limit? (Kinda like how a Blackberry works)
Thank you

Just out of intrest, wtf have microsoft done to messenger mobile?!?! Not only have they hidden in in 'msn pocket' (took me ages to find when drunk), but I can't find a way to make it so it doesn't gimme on screen notifications when I get a new message/contact online. I have about 150 contacts. It makes it unusable as it interupts me literally every 3 seconds when one of them goes online/offline/changes their name/sends me an IM.
Annoying.
I tried to use Agile and it said that all connections failed when I tried to connect to AIM. I am on a Cingular 8125 WM5 and my GRPS is working because I was just online.
Any thoughts?
Anybody else using Gmail and the build-in mail client? It works... ok. But because the mail client only has a 'send/receive' button (and not two separate buttons), trying to send an email results in receiving ALL email since the last pop3 check. Frustrating since gmail won't recognize accessing the web mail interface as a 'check'.
Anybody got some tips?
Hi,
i want to use it but where can i get it?
thanks in advance..
well just enable pop3 in the gmail settings, open your htc universal, go to messages > new account > fill in the settings (auto config) and you're set.
If you are talking about something like google notify, that I don't know - I don't think it exists.
Or you can use Gmail through Pocket Internet Explorer on the device, it works moderately well now. They detect that you have a small screen device and present a cut down version of the "full" interface.

You're absolutely right, but what bothers me is that Opera 85 mobile could handle the 'proper' gmail. However it won't, because gmail detects the user agent string which can't be changed from Opera. Terribly frustrating, because it would work really nice alongside the 'fit to screen' opera feature.
I use the personalised homepage of Google (http://google.com/ig) and this will show me if I have any new Gmails along with several other RSS feeds and interesting snippets.
When I click the Gmail header I scroll down to the bottom of the page and there is a link to Basic HTML which makes life a whole lot easier.
The /ig page trick kinda works (but google once again pushes that ugly 'mobile' version rather than the 'normal' one. What would be perfect is a gmail notify -like client for PPC.
Hi all. I just got an x01ht. Im using schapps 3.30 wm6 pro rom.
Just wondering if there is any way to use my old @k.vodafone.ne.jp mail on my new phone. I have my pc mail setup but everyone i know uses my old phone address.it'll be a pain to mail everyone and tell them to change to my pc addreess. And outlook doesnt show the message as soon as it is available.have to log on etc etc.
any help would be appreciated
One way is that you could download softbanks MMS mail program... but I dont sugest using it as it is slow, poorly thought out, clumsy to use and absoluty the worst user experiance application I have ever seen.
The other way, which i suggest is that you search the forum or internet for MMSLite.bld265 which will work with Outlook but you wont have the use of emoticons. This way is much faster and although outlook isnt the best UX program it is much better than the Softbank option.
cheers.its working now
Hey Hippo which option did you use?
any norwegians who have unlocked the phone, can you tell me what is not good with the phone, except from the MMS not working yet. Anyone found a solution to the problem. I have a Chess service myself. I also wonder how I can get all my contacts from Outlook/my htc touch cruise to the G1 phone. Anyone solved this. What about connection the thing to my hotmail account. On my HTC touch cruise this is very simple.
Is the phone worth the money??? Looking forward to hear from you.
Best regards
Morten
Howdy
Cons:
Battery life
No decent IM app yet
Screen gets greasy fast
MMS is working if your provider supports having all the information in one single APN settings file. I am not sure if Chess supports this or not.
If you haven't already, get a decent data plan. That is one of the things I am struggeling to find in Norway, espescially on Telenor. You could get Mobilt Bredbånd, but to a price of 499,- NOK for unlimited, it isn't so tempting anymore. The only option I see is the iPhone bundle that Netcom have, but I want to use Telenor, so I am ****ed.
The easiest way I found to do this, is to download a program called KiGoo. This enables you to have a folder in Outlook that is basically your Google Contacts or your Google Calendar. I just synced all my Contacts from my Nokia E65 to Outlook, and then just copied them from the Outlook folder to the KiGoo folder. It worked pretty good, and almost all details got copied (Names, all phone number, e-mails and all important stuff is copied, and remains in the correct fields as well, unlike the Funambol Android Client, which puts commas in the Last Name field if there isn't anything there), and is the best solution I have tried so far. And believe me, I've tried LOTS of things.
It seems that .csv exporting from Outlook don't work, since Outlook uses Norwegian in to describe the values, which Gmail obviously don't understand.
I wouldn't have my hopes up for the Hotmail thing.
I haven't used hotmail since I was 12, but back then you had to have Hotmail Plus to be able to access your mail via POP3 or anything other than Webmail and the Live Client for windows. The only solution would have to be to forward all incoming mail to your Gmail account, and I don't know if hotmail supports that with out Plus.
You can access your Hotmail account through the browser, but it is only retarded, the Live page isn't optimized for mobile use, and it would just get annoying after a short while.
I would just change my email to gmail, which in my opinion is superior anyways
You can still use your Live ID on MSN so that is no big deal really.
Hope this sorted out some issues for you

HEi i need hellp
Dos any1 knows if the G1 haz a norwegian t9 ?how do u manage to write sms with it ? since he dosent have the æøå
Please do some reading on the forum...
The handset has a full qwerty keyboard, why would there be a problem writing SMS? You get all special characters holding the corresponding key.(a=å, o=ø etc..)
[Added 30Euro Bounty]
Hello Everyone,
I seem to have run into a shortcoming of both WinMo 6.1 and 6.5.
Apparently (I have searched the forums for this quite extensively) there is no way to have a notification (sound or vibration) to notify the reception inform of an email that has been pushed from the exchange server directly to a subfolder of the inbox, based on a server side rule (i.e. having all the emails sent from my office go directly to my inbox subfolder that is labeled Work Emails).
I am sure plenty of people have exchange accounts with subfolders and would like to see this issue resolved. Moreover, I cannot understand how this feature is present on email clients for Symbian devices but is not supported in Microsoft's own Pocket Outlook (RoadSync for Symbian has this feature).
I am not a programmer, but it would appear bizarre that there is no way to associate a notification to an email, simply because it does not appear in the inbox but in a subfolder of the inbox. From a logical point of view, all that is required is to exted the notifications that apply to new emails in the inbox to ALL new emails both in inbox AND subfolders.
I am willing to pay 30Euros to whomever develops a hack/registry tweak/cab...whatever, that can:
1) make WinMo notify an email that has been pushed to a inbox subfolder;
2) integrate the solution in TF
So far the only solution that have been suggested are:
1) FlexMail 4, that is not compatible with TF or SPB shell
2) http://www.blackmonlabs.com/faq.html. However even this solution is not what I am looking for.
3) CheckMail 2.0 (http://www.soft32.com/download_234983.html) is an app that does exactly what I am looking for, I am now testing if it works with TF3d
Please help,
[I honestly cannot understand how this issue has not been addressed yet]
did you try second today or similar software that allows wmToday and touchflo to run at the same time?
it may work with http://www.blackmonlabs.com/faq.html.
Let me see if I understand this correctly.
I install second today, and for that today screen I install blackmonlab application; therefore, on my second today screen I would get subfolder email notifications.
However, if I understand correctly, I would still have no form of notification when in TF3D today screen. I would still have to switch to my second today screen and verify whether I have received new emails or not.
I don't know....this appears to be so strange. I cannot believe all the Microsoft Exchange users have not in some way addressed this.
Let's see if the addition of a small bounty attracts some good willed programmers.
I am sure there must be a number of people who could use this fix.

yeah dude give it a try before dismissing the idea. it might work well for you
also, whats the name of the app that adds today screen as a tab in touchflo. it might work better than second today or mtoday
I don't know.
In fairness, I am new to WinMO as I recently moved from a nokia communicator E90; I also have some Blackberry experience, since my GF has one.
Honestly, I just love WinMO so far. However, the whole messaging system is pretty weak compared to other platforms and I am rather unsatisfied.
I have not tried SPB mobile shell 3.0, as of yet.
I have mainly used TF Rhodium version and Titanium.
I really like TF, however, I would get rid of both the SMS and Email tabs and replace them with one unique tab that incorporates a fast smooth messaging client. For someone who receives 30/40 SMS per day and about 80 emails, the TF is just very inefficient.
If there was a way to integrate a POWERFUL messaging client in either TF or SPB I would definitely try it. By integrating I mean a Messaging client that:
1) notifies me about SMS, Email (and subfolder emails) vibrating/ringing;
2) Visually modifies my TF3DHome/TitaniumToday/SPB now/ screen showing an envelope and the number of unread messages;
3) provides a pop-up preview (not necessary);
4) one finger tap from Home/today/spb now/ straight to the new Message (no scrolling/clicking to the tab, then clicking on the envelope).
Perhaps there is something like this and I am unaware of it?
hi, does the check mail 2.0 supported TOUCH FLO3D? i went to the description link it says only displays on Today screen.
CheckMail 2.0 does not support touchflo or any other Graphic shell.
Ok someone just messaged me with a solution which appears to be rather interesting.
Using BBconnect and BIS service from phone carrier or alternatively BBconnect and BES (for those who work in a company that runs a BES server).
Apparently BB connect can be integrated in TF3d without issues.
Can someone confirm perhaps?
Did you ever find a good solution to this problem? I too am dumbfounded that this is not natively supported, even in WM 6.5 which I'm running on my Fuze (Energy Rom 8/1 build).
Come on people, there has to be a solution!!!
that feature has never been supported by pocket outlook, nor the PC version of Outlook. ALthough the PC version finally gave the user the ability to create reminders based upon new email into a folder or email specifics. Likewise, PC version of Outlook will not give reminders on flagged items that are not in the inbox and you used to have to use an Outlook plugin to get to do that.

I can definitely do this in the PC version of outlook with the built-in Desktop Alerts. It seems like it would be such a simple and useful piece of functionality to implement in WM. Anyone else heard of a good way to do this, especially in WM 6.5?
THe only solution I have found for this, that does not require a second today screen or closing down TF3D is a #rd party app called watch flag.
Here is the home page http://www.watchflag.com/
I used it with WM6.1, it did the job, I found the interface to be a bit clunky, and did not woirk entirely the way I wanted.
That is probably my fault becaue I could not get it to notify me on specific subfolders, I could only make it notify me on all subfolders.
In the programs defense it was over a year ago and has had revisions since then.
The other issues are the program is not free, but has a two week trial and while TF3D can be running , i think it just has regular on screen messages and does not integrate with TF3D message notifications.
Like i said I have not used it in a Year.
