I just got my qtek 9100 and it came installed with pocket msn. Is there anyway I can remove this as I dont have a hotmail account and dont want the hotmail inbox. .... or is there another way of removing just the inbox.
I much prefer agile for msn anyway so dont realy need pocket msn anyway.
Any help would be appreciated.
hi buddy
try the attached file - got it from my wizard extended rom!
cheers, lutz

Its in the Windows folder and some thing like msnmsgr.exe - can't tell you for sure as I dont have it with me.
Just to finish off I placed a copy in the start menu and removed from the today screen the pocket MSN thing.
Terran
Thanks for the repsonses.
I did a hard reset and didnt start the pocket msn software, so it didnt create a hotmail inbox. I've removed it from the program icons.
The messenger software is called instmsgr.exe but if you use that it still creates the hotmail inbox.
Cheers
i too would like to know how to use msn without it making the hotmail inbox. also i'd like to get rid of the outlook email one but i could live with that staying but 2 inboxes i dont use starts to get anoying
I just use agile messenger which is free and does the same job. In fact it goes one better by including AOL, ICQ and yahoo messenger.

I simply made a shortcut in SPB Pocket Plus to a file called..... instmsrg.exe which is in the Windows folder.
To get rid of the mailbox, i guess you could hard reset, create the shortcut to instmsgr.exe then never open the Pocket MSN so the mailbox never gets made. As suggested above.

as shah said it still creates the hotmail account as soon as you sign in using the msn software. oh well guess i'll just have to use a 3rd party app for instant messaging

right figured out how to remove it. go into settings / memory and stop msn and messaging. (this'll stop you having to reset)
load up a reg editor, I used resco explorer. goto HKLM/software/microsoft/inbox/svc then rename the "hotmail" key to "-hotmail" exit resco and press the power button to standby your device and save the reg changes. now if you go into messages the hotmail will be gone.
i've only just figured this out so not sure if there are any minor side effects, let me know if you notice any.
Thanks
That seems to do the trick.
Need just to decide whether to use agile or instmsgr ... The latter integrates better with the os but I think I read somewhere that it uses more data so higher gprs costs ???
I just tried this on the new rom, and it denied me access to the whole messaging package.
No Texts, nothing.
So I'm just undo-ing the change.
How can I get rid of the process called pMSNServer.exe which takes up around 300KB of my precious RAM??

Not to be contrary, but pMSNServer.exe should only be using 56kb of resident memory. I haven't seen it run since I did the following from a few posts up (though I deleted the whole key rather than renaming it):

I already deleted that key as well - I don't have the MSN Inbox in my MobileOutlook...
However, the pMSNService.exe is still running and takes up around 300KB...
which app you use to see how much space does the msn program use when running ?
thanx
I am using SKTools, but there are also many other memory managers...

Dear Lutzh,
I ran this cab on my Toshiba G900 WM6P PPC phone, to remove WLM, and it asked where to install, I chose Storage Card. Now on card I have folder Tools with a file CeSetup in it which does not have a file association. In Add/Remove programs I have nothing new that can be removed. In /windows I still have the WLM files. Did I do something wrong, what should I do next?
Thank you in advance
Hi Guys,
My Hermes was replaced by Vodafone as most of the front buttons died after 60 days. As I could not be putting up with reinstalling everything on another 'PDA' yet again, I bought SPB Backup and did a full backup of the old phone and restored it to the new one. Everything works 100% - except:
SPB Diary shows my mail account, called 'PD', but it won't Open it. Messaging doesn't even show the account, but if I try to create a new 'PD' it says that an account with that name already exists, so I guess something is missing or corrupt.
I can create a new mail account with another name, but it nags me that the old data (or part of it) is there 'somewhere' so can anyone point me towards a file/folder/registry entry I can delete to get rid of the duff account.
Many thanks.
PS: Yes, I have posted in the SPB Backup forum but a few others have had similar-ish problem and there's not much in the way of advice.
Try completely cleaning up the e-mail accounts by SKTools 3.x. It will delete all your mail-related stuff (incl. other accounts) so save your stuff first.

There isn't really need for a full tutorial - go to PIM / Delete PIM information, select the name of the mailbox (for example, "mymail") and Delete, followed by Yes / No.

Thanks for that - I will give it a go.
Edit: Well, I downloaded and installed SKLite for WM5 smartphones and it won't run - a window pops up briefly and then closes.
If you're not afraid using the Windows Mobile SDK, see my thread on rapiconfig (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=283128).
First, you can query information about your accounts.
Then, either try setting the authentication fields, or, use the nocharacteristic element to delete the accounts one by one.
You'll find documentation looking for »nocharacteristic EMAIL2« on MSDN.
Hi guys,
I've had my HD2 for almost 2 weeks now and am loving it! It's my first Windows Mobile device and I'm learning new things every day.
Everything is set up and working well *touch wood* but I have 1 slight problem. I've been sending/receiving emails via my btinternet account on the handset without a problem so far, but once I've sent out an email, there's no record of it on the handset. It doesn't show up in the sent box and, having had a look through the settings, I can't seem to find anything related to rectifying this type of problem. Am I doing something wrong and/or can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Yup i have the same issue, another bug, sure it will be fixed soon though.
Also you notice how it does not sync any of the other folder either, atl east on hotmail it does not.

Yep I'm having the same problem with my Gmail. The inbox syncs but no other folders sync even though I have selected them in 'Manage Folders'.
Yeah, I've noticed that. It's the same with Yahoo. I don't really mind that so much though to be honest. I just want the confirmation that my emails have been sent, it's very strange?!.
how have you managed to get your hotmail accounts setup on the HD2. i cant seem to connect to the server to sync my email? ive disabled the 'proxy' in the connections settings but still cannot set it up?
Could you pls give a step-by-step setup procedure?
its really appreciated, thanks

I'm also having problems getting my emails to come through. My btinternet email ones seem sporadic and I have to click on send/receive to get them to come through. My hotmail worked a couple of days ago but now nothing....and I know I've new emails. I keep getting the page appearing asking for my password and username poping up. Can't get it to sync at all. Whats the proxy setting you mention? Wheres that?
from inbox; menu/tools/manage folders, then tick the boxes to any of the fiolders you want synched and finaly refresh your mailbox.
By default, only the inbox is always synched.

The easiest way to synch your hotmail account is by using the windows live software on your Leo. Just enter your username and password and it will do the rest.

hi , thanks.
i honestly 'prefer not to' install all the live stuff... as i believe ppl here have been able to sync without installing this? would you know if this is possible (it would be better)?

You don't have to install anything, it's already there on your start menu. It simply automates your mailbox syncing.

Having the same problem, there's no tick box!
It is strange if you cant see the boxes at least for some folders. I have to choice for Inbox, Sent Items and Junk mail.
Anyway you can try to keep the finger on the folder to get context menu where are other Folder options. And there is something I would like to ask some advanced user - why I can switch there from "Download email headers" to "Download complete message" but nothing happens and from Hotmail account the phone keeps downloading just email headers. Btw. when using POP3 for my other email account I am able to set this option to Download complete message and YES, there it is running like a charm. But with Hotmail I am not able to succeed.
Anyone knows the clue?

ok maybe its a little late but i figured it out... ---> click on email--> click on menu--> new acc--> pick hotmail/live--> put login info--> if it goes to opera like it did to me or does appear below gmail or so forth on the email tab don't worry im gonna tell you what to do next--> find the windows live icon click it.. once ur logged in you will see Windows live Home follows by Messenger followed by sync--> click on sync--> a new option appears and it should be hotmail option to view your emails..--> now get out and go to your email tab..--> at this point your hotmail is sync to ur device and should be good to go..

thanks so much clown shoes this is so simple but so easy to overlook i spent hours before i found this now have my saved mails
thanks!
I second the above poster! The fix for this was so easy, but so incredibly counterintuitive that I don't think that I'd have ever gotten this on my own.
I am trying to get the incoming mail server settings for the mobile.msn.com so i can add a second account. Does anybody know these settings?

Hi hispeedworm,
try checking the following settings:
Go to Start | System | Messaging. Select your Hotmail account and press the Signatures button - i think it would be found here.
Alternatively, open up your email account, click on menu, tools, then options then select signatures
Hope this helps.
Regards.
yes it worked... thanks alot..... mastoid

I'm considering switching from the G1 to the HD2 when it comes out this week because I'm ready for a new device. However all of my contacts are stored through google and not on my SIM or in Outlook. Is there any way to sync Google contacts with an HD2/WM6.5, or would I have to find an alternative way should I decide to take the upgrade?
I have not tested it... but in activesync you can set it up to sync with m.google.com. I only used it for calendar so I cannot assure you that it will work...
I use it for calendar, contacts, and email - all works splendidly. makes flashing new roms a breeze or even switching phones.
All i have to remember are my settings for cookies (which you can export), bsbtweaks, and S2U2. everything else is done.
you will have to find a way to backup your SMSes though. I have not imported my SMSes from my E65 to the HD2. But if you can put an SMS into MSMyphone or PIMbackup format you can restore them too.

awesome! I'm going from g1 to hd2 on wednesday!
Bah, first read - then reply. My bad
You can also go to gmail and export your contacts as a CSV file, then just import into outlook, and when you plug you phone into your computer to sync it will download all of your contacts

an app called "vcard expert" from the windows phone marketplace could be worth looking at.
all you need to do is export your contacts from google in a single vcard vcf file and stick the file on your HD2 - vcard expert will do the rest.

yes this works with active sync. i went from a htc hero to the HD2 and it even took my Facebook links over with the contacts. sense to sense.

where you enter email and password, click manual setup
"user name" is your complete email address
enter password
keep "domain" blank
"server address" is m.Google.com
click done
then select contact, mail, calendar...there is no task suppot so uncheck it
click done...then the "sync now" soft key
edit: i forgot, make sure SSL is checked also.
Also, maybe a MOD can put this in the tips thread if its not there already.

There is a "text messages" option...does this work? If so where are they saved?
do you guys get the lastname first?
text messages is only on com5 builds I think. I never had it on my stock ROM.
Also if you type in [email protected] or whatever your gdomain is then on COM5 the 'domain' box is grayed out. (cooked roms)
you must type m.google.com however on COM2 builds (stock)
what do you mean lastname?
It depends on how the contact sends their name in the email text.
TBH i am curious to see if SMSes work....but Myphone handles that for me well enough.
One thing that does irritate me is that mail sent from the HTC does not appear in sent items....I think that's why they put in the 'reply all'. With reply all it sends back to you, but with just reply I never see the message again until they mail back with it included inline.
That thing about sent emails and the huge battery killer were the two main things that made return this devices,plus WinMo,it does not cut it for me.Beautiful screen though.

It's written i post #10.
I just used it to export alle my contacts from my HD2 to a group in Gmail i called 'HD2', and the they are pressent when i start Android on my HD2.
Go to AcitveSync on your HD2 and form the Menu choose 'Options' and delete the current server. Mine was 'Microsoft Exchange'.
Then set up a new connection that i the one shown i post #10.
It worked finde for me - thansk BlackElvis79 ;-)
