Oz Cab

Does anyone have the oz cab that is compatible with WM6? I deleted mine off, but have decided that IM+ and mundu take up too much resources for the little I use them. I have unlimited text messaging with my family plan, so I would like to go ahead and reload oz, but don't want to have to do a hard reset in order to do so.
Any help would be much appreciated. I searched, but couldn't find it.
Thanks.

Attached!

Thank you. Unfortunately, now I can't get the darn thing to work. It keeps saying communication error and to check my settings.

I had the same problem, what you need to do is uninstall it, and install it to your device. If you had it installed to your storage it will continue to give the error. If you install to device it will work just fine. Hope that helps!

If you want it to work you're goin to have to hard reset and let the T-Mo customizations run. Remember Oz IM runs off you're SMS and not a dedicated internet app, so there will be some settings that would have to be tweaked in order to sync it. I don't know if anyone has made it work or even tried to yet, but there are other options out there. There's IM+ and Agile but you'll have to purchase them after trial period, and there's also imov and palringo which are both free, but have their share of problems. All run on internet so it's much better than sms based.
I personally use a combo of palringo and imov. Palringo is better looking and more feature rich than imov but disconnects frequently even when there's service. Also, as of right now, there's a problem with switching between different chats. It doesn't save your conversion once you exit out and there's no workaround at the moment. Imov basically has no features, is very basic in looks, and has ads that take up about one-third of your screen, but it is much more stable. You can leave it running overnight.
Hope this helps

You don't have to do a hard reset and let the Tmo extras run, I am running my wing debranded with the cab re-installed to my device, and it works for me with no problems. Although you can use the other programs papito mentions if you have a data plan. If you just have a text msg plan use the oz cab.

how do i choose to install on the device? it doesnt give me an option. i use 8525 btw
or are you guys talking about miucro sd card cuz i dont have one

thx alot ive been lookin everywhere for this.

Whats Is OZ Pocket PC? Just got my wing and I'm looking to trick it out.
Thanks

Okay, I think I have this OZ communicator figured out somewhat. It seems that there is a registry key that makes a connection to a site that (I would assume) handles the IM/SMS exchange for the OZ IM Client (HKCU\Software\OZ Communications\Configuration\1\Network) which points at http://aol.cwmim.com:1171 I would think that it is the conversion here that creates the text message charge. I would think that t-mobile would have a similar site to put in here that handles conversion for their network. Anyone have a t-mobile phone with OZ, and can pass that out to us?

I have a t-mobile wing with a custom rom on it. I wanted to install Oz because i wanted to have the instant messengers. I do have unlimited text and the basic data plan. When I installed the program, it gave me a communication error and to check the settings but it also sent me a text message...which I didnt understand. How can I get the program to work? I have it installed on the device memory already.

Skype on WM6

I just installed WM6 on my Cingular 8525 (HTC TyTn), and when I reinstalled Skype, I cannot make any voice calls. Chat messages work fine, but no voice whatsoever. When I select a contact to call, the program quits. Does anybody have any experience with this problem and a solution?

yea the current version of skype mobile doesnt work right with the hermes. get the earlier version 2.20 or something like that. cant remember off the top of my head. you can get it by googling.

I contacted Skype ... They are supposed to have a version that works with WM6...released after an official ATT ROM release...

Thanks for the advice. I thought Skype 2.2 was the most current, but I'll do some searching. The Skype website says there is a beta version of 2.2, but I can't find it anywhere yet. If anyone knows of a WM6-compatible Skype download, I would love to get the link.

from that list I'm using SkypeForPocketPC-2.2.0.18-Beta.cab. It works for me and seem to be the once of choice for Hermes users.

Sprint PictureMail Cab (Attached)

Attached is the Sprint PictureMail Cab I found on another site. Currently it is not working on my Touch but I was hoping some of the geniuses here can figure out why. I will help test in any capacity. Thanks!
Couldn't attach so here is the direct link for it:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/yuz4yj2xndk/SprintPictureMail-100-0.1.14.4-cab.cab
NOTE: I have not found a way to uninstall this so if anyone knows, please post.

ya know I was thinkin' about this cuz it doesn't ask for the password to be set up. I will look into it if that is the same problem u r having too.

Mms Program For Touch
Called Smms Picture Mail Composer By Someguy Mms Works Perfectly On My Htc Touch Changed My Life On The Touch

no2chem ripped these and its working on the titan, you could try it for the touch. it should work. http://www.nuerom.com

I tried the cab on my Touch and so far no luck. When I attach a picture that message disappears and seems to be gone. I'll play around with it and report back if I get it to work. If you get it going let us know.

I read that the requirements for this to work is that you'd have to call Sprint tech support, and have them reset your picturemail account.

I use sMMS and it does work great. Was just hoping for an OEM solution. I couldn't get it to work on my touch. When I access the picture mail account it does some kind of setup and gives me an error.

It's now working intermittently for me.
I went into the setup and reviewed what was there and made some minor settings adjustments and it now works about 1 out of 5 tries. When it works it's very nice. Easy to send and what the recipient receives is very good.
I don't think that the problem is in the default server settings as no matter what's changed there's no change in the problem.
Computerjunkie, I didn't experience any problem with my install on my Touch as you've had. It's just the attaching pic thingy for me which I think others are also seeing.

I originally had the same issue as the OP, however I simply reinstalled to the device and it appears to be working just fine! Also, if its any difference I am running Juicy8

This is very annoying.

I recently flashed my phone with the energy rom that doesn't have any htc sense, instead comes with spb shell. The issue that I'm having is when ever I call my voicemail I get a text message like this "129 //vvm:SYNC:ev=MBU".
This is really annoying and I want to get rid of it some how. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I noticed that too.
However, I use Google Voice, so I never call my voicemail.

Its just something that shouldn't be happening. I definitely appreciate all of the work that the developers do on this site but some of the little stuff that doesn't get checked for bugs is annoying. Its almost like microsoft releaseing things even though they know there are bugs and relying on the users to point it out. Just frustrated :/

I get the same thing and I have Miri ROM. It would be nice to know how to fix it.

vvm:SYNC:ev=MBU
visual voice mail. i assume the roms you are on dont have it included.
You could perhaps hide the problem by turning off network messages, or can you turn off vvm on your t mo account? or you can probably download and install vvm as a cab. (Its certainly there in my kitchen, so i assume someone will have made it into a cab by now)

Viber for Android Finally Released!!

Finally "Viber" is released on android.. All my mates with iphones use it and its a really cool cross-platform app.
"Viber is an application for iPhone® and Android™ phones that lets you make free phone calls and send text messages to anyone who also has the application installed.
You can call or text any Viber user, anywhere in the world, for free. Viber integrates seamlessly with your existing address book, has great sound quality and once activated, does not require a PIN, username or any additional "in application" purchase. All Viber features are 100% FREE!"

P.S: Just realized this shud have gone under themes and apps..sorry mods..

Yeah I used this app its great..

A really cool app,but I have some questions!
1.Do I have to be connected to the internet, via wifi or 3G?Does it consume my 3G data when connected via 3G?
2.How much Megabytes does a typical call cost approximately?

Nice. I ll try it today.

I was testing the Beta before. Great...but you need wlan for a good Performance

Hi m8, you do need a data connection and according to the folks at viber it uses approximately 240 KB per minute up and down, 14 MB per hour up and down. I'd assume that is under ideal conditions (dont know what they are tho). i've heard it works way better on wifi than 3g..

Hi m8, not sure of the exact differences but heres some general ones..
1. Viber’s interface is very easy to use – it looks completely similar to the iPhone basic application, and this makes a huge difference for most users in the world. Simple elegance is what works.
2. Viber does not require login/password in order to log in, unlike the great majority of VoIP applications today, but instead it uses the user’s original cellular phone number. This makes the registration process very quick, and helps users find other friends who have Viber very easily. This way more and more friends recommend each other to install Viber, and have free calls.
3. Finally, Viber doesn’t have to be open when receiving a call, thanks to Viber’s support of Push Notifications feature. This means that Viber saves battery, and that users are always available to receive Viber’s free calls.

not working on my sg3
Not sure why but SMS works, I can hear but no one can hear me. Have used wifi. Now even linphone does not work (even echo calibration fails).
Am on JP4 with g3mod 1.3.2 performance. Am not able to find the issue here. Phone works but any voip app does not.
Is there anything I am missing here. Voice search works but voice dial does not hear me either.
UART and USB are both set to PDA (not sure if that had anything to do here) and dev mode is ON.

Hmm I'll try this with some friends

You should post this comment under the comments section of the viber app on the android market because the OP is not the developer for viber.

From what I've seen of this app, it works pretty well, but I'd recommend What's App. I wonder if they both connect to the IOS version of this, not many of my friends have Android phones
