Black Berry messenger BBM on HD2 - HD2 General

is there a way to get BBM to work on HD2 ?
there is a thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482411
but it seems to be unable to get BB Pin ... any ideas anyone ?

I'd really like to know too.
I think windows need to come out with some kind of equivalent. Even the iphone has some kind of app that does that.
Either that or improve the windows live messenger.

hey,
ive heard that bb pins are unique to the actual blackberry handset and cannot be emulated on other devices.
a bit of a bummmer cos that would be awesome!
oh well, hopefully as u say windoes comes up with summink

That is true, as well as the BBM server is a closed system, no access from the outside (off blackberry.net) , which is why people on BB's loose internet if BB is down and the service provider is still up, because everything goes through BB ..
BTW this has been talked about over and over, and this thread was 5 months old to begin with ....

So there is news that RIM may open their Blackberry messaging service to other platforms, I think (from what I have read) this only includes Android and iOS. Take a read: http :// crackberry. com/ blackberry-messenger-coming-android-and-ios
The only way for BBM to work on another OS would be if RIM opened up their PIN service.
Just delete the obvious spaces in the URL, I don't have enough posts to add a link yet... I am new to WM!

WM 6.1 ROM

Exist any WM6.1 ROM for HTC Dream ? Please dont ask me why I need this.
Thanks.
No, not going to happen, been asked many, many, many times already.
why not ? where is the problem to cook non official ROM ?
For one, its a waste of a perfectly good phone to put that CRAP on it. If you want a piece of crap, buy a piece of crap.
Second, the required drivers simply don't exist.
What do you men crap ? OK, the second explanation is better.
I think lbcoder got it right. windows mobile IS Junk. I have a Kaiser in addition to the G1. The Kaiser has great hardware minus the KB, small screen, and quiet speaker, but it has a horrific OS e.g. It's slow, locks up, restarts itself for no reason.
The G1 however has a great OS that needs little or no changing at all, but dumbed down hardware.

Since your question is completely asinine I'm going to ask you why you need this: Why do you need this?

Bottom line is if you want WinMo, buy a WinMo phone. Most of the hackers working on HTC Dream are working on Android.
Oh yeah and use the search.

I concur. I couldn't imagine going to winmo after being blessed with android.
he he he he....
I guess we want what we don't have? Many folk are working on porting Android to our WM devices.... Maybe it's just the challenge of it all?

Now that I think about it; I sure wouldn't mind the ability to dual boot. Not even sure why but maybe just for that hell of it.
Makes no sense
I had the T-mobile Dash before the G1 and wound up giving the dash to my wife. I was helping her learn to use it and only then did I realise how goofy the setup of it all is. They say the beauty of it is that it tries to emulate the Windows experience, but if my desktop worked like that...I'ld have a mac.

Best post in this thread. Completely true and funny as hell.

Dual-Boot HTC HD2 Windows Mobile/Android

Hey I am new to flashing. I have changed the roms on g1's, and on the nexus one per different youtube vidoes and stuff i have read in this forum.
Yesterday i purchased the HD2 and to my horror found out that it was running on Windows Mobile (WTF). So i have been loking around and I saw that in the past the forum has been able to get Touch Pro 2 that run on WM6.5 to dual boot into android.
So I am hoping that the same can be done with the HD2. So is the HSPL2 listed in this forum the beginning steps to this process or what? Has anyone yet setup the HD2 to run on android?
I know this is wordy but I just want to make it understood that I am new and I want to learn and that I have the desire to get android on my HD2.
thanks any suggested reading is welcome as the steps to get android on this awesome phone that HTC FUBAR'd with WM6.5
The HD2 cannot run android at this time.

No, it's not quite there at this time. However, while I understand your opinion, I don't think HTC "FUBAR'd" at all. I've had a few Android devices and this phone is AMAZING, even with WM.
this has been discussed already at length.. if you look in the ROMS section of the forum you'll find it ..
And it is NOT going to happen soon..
Android on the HD2 will be amazing! Hopefully they can get it ported by summer to compete with the HTC EVO.

...this is not true,
There is an engineer at the local Tmobile call center dual booting Android and winmo. He runs Android off of the card itself. The phone that is dual booting is at the kiosk at the LaPlaza mall in Mcallen TX and has been used as their demo phone.
How is he doing it? I have no idea, but hes told myself and a Tmobile sales buddy that he'll help us out with it.
So, you purchased the phone without realizing its a WM phone, and have the balls to complain, all because you didnt read, and now are asking if you can put android on it...lazy much?
I suppose you want someone to flash it for you too, or better yet start another thread asking how to do that...
Didn't you see the windows mobile on the box...

You're saying he's booting android on a hd2? I doubt it. Are you sure its not a TP2? There is an andriod port for the TP2.
I'm not sure how you purchased the phone without knowing the underlying OS, but I'm guessing you bought it in the US for Tmobile. If that is the case, and I'm guessing it is, then you can't flash any ROMs for it yet because of the different SPL.

I seriously doubt this. Maybe you had it confused with an HD or a TP2, but I doubt xda wouldn't know about this...especially since it's most likely to originate here. A picture to prove this would be great, but I don't expect it.

it sounds sketch but a guy at my tmobile told me that HTC had given one of the coworkers a website run by themself that had android software for the HD2. So hearing that i find it believable.

you want solutions and are talking about constructive? how about using the search button? this question is already been asked like 100 times?
I would just like to thank everyone that replied. I guess i just need to wait a bit longer for the xda big brains to resolve this issue. I just thought that it would have been a simpler thing to do since the HD2 in UK had been flashed to run android. I have plenty on time and money so I can buy another device and wait.
Thanks again all.

News to me! I've seen it running on other devices, but even then it's beta, with various functionality still unavailable, WIFI etc.
If you wanted Android, a little research before hand should and would have been wise, i.e. waiting for the EVO to be released.
I like WinMo 6.5. It may not be as pretty as Android or iPhone OS (without the Sense gui which is quite lovely imho) but it's a very versatile and an incredibly powerful tool in the hands of the right user. If you're in a business environment, using Microsoft equipment, exchange servers etc, there is not an more efficient handheld device to carry in you pocket (again, imho).

Yes, especially since the people behind that app are XDA devs
Aw dude are they rly? Now I feel like a jack ass haha! unfortunately it was really simple, im pretty sure they're aware of the exploit then also
I think hacking should really not even be offered in this forum.. Since this is about development, there is a very fine line between legal and illegal.. so we all strive to keep this site alive by not offer any warez or serial number hacks..
So If I were you, I would edit my post and remove the offer.. dont want the moderators down on you.

well, since you are NOT a developer and DID NOT discover the exploit yourself (and for the community to improve the software) - that makes you nothing more than a common theif.
i wish i were an admin or moderator - i would get your IP address, find the ISP, call the company and your local law enforcement agency.... you PUBLICLY confessed to STEALING.
you sir are responsible for the draconian digital content protection laws enacted by governments around the world... and DRM crap by the big corps. problems with corporations and government will prevail as long as tools like you troll the internet looking to get great software, music, games, and movies without paying....

We got amazing XDA developers on here and I'm proud of them. Without them. We wouldn't have what we got right now for our Pocket Pc's/windows mobile devices. So I didn't like how you broke into that software. Just my opinion.
Thanks.

I'm trying to get one of these HTC WiFi Router options to work correctly with an upgraded Stock Sprint Touch Pro 2 that has the WinMo 6.5 update.
I've installed a few that seem to be the same thing, however I cannot find any changes. I've checked the obvious places, start menu, connections... Looked for suggestive entries in Program Files / Registry... Can't seem to see what, if anything, has been added, or how to utilize it.
Any suggestions?
I do appreciate anyone's time and effort to get something like this working...

Hey levi, didn't see your question till today.
When I install it on the tmo 6.5 ROM, the app creates a new folder in the start menu called "Communication" and puts the icon for it in there. If you don't find that, then the file it links to is here -> \Windows\CMInternetSharing.exe
You can start it manually from there, and copy/paste a shortcut to wherever in your start menu you want it.

KIK Messaging on HD2

Is anyone using KIK messenger on there HD2? If so, what are your experiences?
Worked fine for me, but I don't really see the need for it over regular sms.
Actually the story of me installing it was pretty cool. My friend mentioned it to me and another friend. None of us had it installed on our phones. One of them has the iphone 4 and the other has the evo. We all started trying to install it at the same time. I had downloaded it, registered and started adding friends before the other two even had it downloaded.
Yeh I just like the fact it shows up as D for delivered so you know it got there. Then R for read so you know they read your text. My only problem is that it lags when receiving new messages. Whether its my data or not I'm not sure but I normally have data connection and they still don't come.
hey how did u guys get it in on your hd2? i thought it was only for andorid, bb , or iphone?

Sorry for such a late reply, I kind of gave up. I could never find any fixes so I just stopped using the app. My only guess is it has something to do with the fact that our phones rooted but idk. Anyone find anything out?

The last few days experience

This latest Gmail situation has finally pushed me over the edge!
HTC HD2 is such a piece of crap tech ... or perhaps it's the utterly poor OS on it.
Or perhaps it's both put together when it should never have happened... I keep wondering what the HD2 would have been like with Android.
