tmobile wing and aim..... its really frustrating..can anyone recommend....

a good aim client to use?
i recently moved from the sk3 to the wing and the aim on the wing sucks.. it lags like hell.. i send an "im" and it takes sometimes up to 2 min. for someone to answer me. on the sk3 its instantaneous. is there any aim client that will work faster and allow for me to leave my own away message?
i use the program that came with the wing and it doesnt let me leave custom away messages/..
thx for readin..

IM+
AIM 2.0
Agile Messenger
i use IM+ mostly but it's not free
Hacked AIM 2.0 is free and lets you use custom away's and you can even view people's profiles!

where can i get those programs at?

google them.

There really isn't any great ones out there. I have used OZ Client that comes on the phone and all 3 mentioned, (AIM 2.0 I couldn't even get to work right on the Wing, it's to outdated I guess) Honestly after trying all of these I went back to the OZ Client. Possibly when Trillian Astra is released the anywhere chat will work on PDA's but we shall see.

for some reason with a 6800 and multiple roms dcd clean 2.09 and 2.16 i can im anyone on a computer but if i im a mobile client that uses sms i cannot see theri reply just the time stamp this is with the modified and original aim 2.0 not sure if it applies to data clients from cells because had issue with someone on a blackberry pearl as well

i've been using imov software as my im. it's internet based, instant, and u can log into msn, yahoo, aol, and icq at the same time. it's got a free version with ads, but it's been pretty good. it's a straight im though, no bells and whistles like voice, photo, etc. like some of the other apps. it's free so why not? imov Messenger
oh one more thing, u get offline messages also the next time u log in
update: i found the new version 2.27 and made the zip available. for some reason handango isn't working and softpedia gives u ver. 2.25 although it states it's 2.27

check out www.palringo.com
it's free and you can set up AIM, MSN, YIM, ICQ, Gtalk
That's what I use and I'm pretty satisfied with it.

the aim 2.0 client is soo gay sometimes because you cannot configure the enter button to be a send button, so everytime you finish typing you would have to physically tap the screen in order to send your message

aim 2.0
actually under preferences you can uncheck the enter key acts as return and it will now send when u press enter

It uses your data plan or wifi (although I've had a bit of trouble trying to connect via WiFi)
I'll have to agree with Duprade.
For me this is the best free IM software out there. Its quick, not easily disconnected, uses data and voice IM works great.

sorry double post

I really think this program is good even thou it doesnt use any smily faces or anythin like that ...But its really fast and works perfectly on my wing

How do you get this to work for YIM?

i personally bought the IM+ and was worth every cent, i do have the aim 2.0 hack on my phone for use with a second screenname
and you can make your own away msgs with IM+ also
status manager under each program - make your own in there

Palringo is nice and yes free, but you get what you pay for. to go back the contact list or another conversation you must close the active conversation and then when you return everything typed is gone. it does stay connected better than IM+ but not much.
IM+ is grossly over priced and full of bugs. Not to mentiont he fact that it is the only IM program that will NOT work with touch it rom.
AIM 2.0 just plain sucks but again you get what you pay for.
I will stick with palringo just because it actually connects and stays connected better than IM+ but losing conversations just to switch between conversations or go back the contact list just plain sucks

is there a yahoo messenger anywhere for the 8125

i looked on the web and in these forum and i cant find a yahoo messenger or all in 1 the oz messenger doesnt let me send pics or join a conference i tried agile but its not free if anyone stumblze across one let me know cuz i dont wanna pay for a yahoo messenger wen i am just gonna write like 5 people thanks for the help in advance..

If you want to use a YIM-compatible interface that allows those things, you're probably going to have to pay. Not only for the software, but in data transfer (unless you spring for an unlimited data plan).
Even with unlimited data, though, file transfers will be painfully slow on GPRS. WiFi is better, but you're anchored to a location, then.
And on a personal side-note: Better grammar will get you a lot more responses. Nobody minds deciphering for non-native English, but you clearly are just street-ing everything to sound "Kewl." This isn't English Lit 495, but please, communicate effectively if you expect the same in return.

so what is yim

I use Slick it does Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, MSN, Jabber, and Google Talk.

Sorry, Yahoo Instant Messenger = YIM.
My military penchant for acronyms has betrayed me again.

Yahoo messenger, u may try
You can try the one available here, its free btw:
http://yahoo-messenger.en.softonic.com/pocket
Though it installed alright on my phone but somehow couldn't log in just kept saying "connecting" maybe someone can try it and let us know how to connect.

I would personally reccomend Palringo, availible at http://www.palringo.com, it is also free, and supports AIM, YIM, GIM, MSN/LIVE, ICQ and more....been using it since the Excalibur came out so I know its good!

Facebook Chat on Windows Mobile?

Anyone willing to work and craft a means so that Facebook Chat will work on Windows Mobile? Seems like a natural addition to any IM'ing that's already done on WM.
Any takers for the development?

ya that would be great

I was thinking about this recently, it really would make a great addition...
Perhaps this suggestion should be made to the Palringo developers as well.
Since I'm rather fond of Palringo now .

One would probably have to make a facebook application to acomplish this and also I don't think the facebook devs have opened up chat to application developers.

i like the idea since in recent days i've started using facebook chat.

if you use skyfire i believe you can use the facebook chat..

facebook chat app: any news?
Any news on this? I see pidgin now works with facebook on the desktop version. They say that it would take some effort to port pidgin to windows mobile so I don't see that happening yet. It does show that it is possible
code for pidgin app is at:
http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/

There is already a facebook application out there. Not sure if the creator minds if I post it. Besides, its freeware. I use it daily.

i've been using that app recently but, as far as i can tell, it doesn't have facebook chat.

So these apps ive tried on here does not have live chat. Does anything exist? I have skyfire but a window wont popup to let me chat. Waiting for facebook live chat on Win Mobile....

Yeigo has recently included Facebook chat in their application (along with the usuals like Skype/Googletalk/MSN etc). There is a Windows Mobile version as well as Symbian/Java.
You can download the app at www.getyeigo.com or visit www.yeigo.com for more information.

Thanks for the refrence... I tried Yeigo. It looks promising, however I'm having problems. I cant get my MSN contacts to populate. When I chat on facebook I can send messages but when people write back I dont get them.
Can someone else try this program and report back? I have a Tilt on AT&T edge. I have yet to try wifi.

Hey Praygo. We're currently having some issues with the MSN gateway so no one is receiving their MSN friends - we're working on this and hopefully everything will be back to normal by tomorrow.
The facebook code is pretty new so there might still be a few lingering bugs to sort out and we'll be watching for those. From my experience it's been working great. If you continue having issues send us an email at [email protected] and we'll see what we can do to sort you out.
Thanks,
Andrew

I tried Yeigo and i LOVE it. i have a moto q with alltel and i use it for facebook chat and it works great...only thing id want to see changed is the beep to maybe a sound and also a vibrate alert.

Fring has a facebook plugin. Not sure if it's for chat, but if a IM program has a facebook plugin I can only assume that it's for the chat feature....

Yeigo.com is hacked?

would love to try skyfire but its for U.S only and requires signup queue for beta users........
not tasty!

Recomendations for Best IM client?

Hi, first, before anyone jumps on me for not searching existing threads, I did but found that there were a bunch of old and possibly outdated ones as well as many which only talked about one client.
I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a multi-protocol IM client for the Touch 2 or if any of them stand out as being clearly superior to others.
I'd like an IM client that offers always-on support for major networks (AIM, Yahoo IM, Windows Live, Google Talk, ICQ, Jabber etc), is not buggy, has good features and so on. If it can do other things like send files or even start an audio or video chat, that would be great, but is not necessarily that important.
I'd be more than willing to pay for it if a payware client stands out as being supperior to the freeware clients out there.
The ones I'm aware of are:
Mundu - I've tried it, it's okay. It's payware, but seems to work descently, although it gives a lot of alert messages I don't want, like every time it gets disconnected. I wish it would just reconnect on its own and not bother me about it.
IM+ (haven't tried it)
Octrotalk
Nimbuzz
Agile Messenger
BeeJive
Palringo
fring
talkanaut
Fring
Slick
Webmessenger
Any recommendations? Are any of these stand-outs?

Since I'm not anal like others, I'll answer ya. I use Palringo, works perfectly on the Tilt 2. Nimbuzz is okay, I just like Palringo better personally.

Palringo rocks but Fring is nice with the VoIP/Skype integration.

iPhone-ish sms app
has anyone seen an SMS app that has a similiar UI/functionality to the one that's on the iPhone?

Hey brotha, My choice of IM client for the TP2 would be Palringo. Its pretty sweet and I love that you can send pictures through there aswell. Anyways PEACE BROTHA!

I 2nd Palringo... I"m sure once 2.5 comes out for Win mobile it'll be even sweeter.

Bejieve and Live messenger are quite ok for me

BeeJive gets my vote its very quick, I find others to be very slow

+1 for Palringo

I've tried a few of these and their all pretty good, but my biggest worry is that the ones I've tried are hosted by some unknown company. Not a big issue for chat, but if I send a photo to someone how secure is that on their servers? I stick to Live messenger; it may not be the best, but at least you know Microsoft is pretty secure.

BeeJive user here, love it.

Palringo and its not even close.
I've used almost all the other ones.... Palringo blows them away.

I used Parlingo, and while it was cool, it drained the hell out of my battery because it was ALWAYS connected.
I don't really use IM too much on my phone, the only reason I used it was to contact someone who can't receive texts at work. When I closed it, I was frustrated to find it was still open.
I had to close it via the task manager.
If you want something that is connected 24/7, it's great!

Palringo worked like a charm in mine, BUT from some time an on it does not show all my MSN contacts. I have literaly tried every single thing there is but with no use. I have even downloaded the PC version and again the same thing.. Does anyone have a solution or even encountered something similirar? I really liked that IM mainly because it permits me to chat while "appearing offline" which I find very useful. Or mybe suggest another client with the same feature?
The other one i liked was Beejive which i use on Ipod touch, BUT it keeps crashing my device every time, so it's a bummer for me.
Now I stick with Slick, pretty decent with the feature I mentioned above, the only drawback is that it doesn't have a FB chat support.

Honestly I have not had battery issues which would be a major concern of mine. I used beejive a while back and I thought that was an issue with beejive
Some of it may depend on the version of palringo that was used as I believe they made inprovements but I have used palringo for about a year now and I've had it run in the background with very little impact to my battery life.

Hey hani1,
It is not staying connected all the time, you can adjust it in the settings if you like to close it or keep it active. Its the best one there is, meaning lots of protocols, including facebook...
Give that a try

oh so i can make it not run in background? meaning when i exit the program, the process is ended? if thats the case, then i will definitley use it. i just dont like things running in background.

I'm using Beejive here whenever I've to contact someone I can't reach otherwise, it's pretty sweet and fast.
Most of all, I love that the Passwords (MSN, etc) are stored locally and not on some remote server.

the best client imo is Aimtxt which is aim thru text msg it doesnt use battery like other programs...just text 246246

I think there isn't, you could get the Windows messenger app instead of the web version, just search Google, that version is great, looks like pc and is fast.

Well for gtalk
ie only gmail chat
i use fring
google search it
runs in background
also has twitter,yahoo,msn n more things but doesnt have facebook instant messenger service
for tht i use fim (facebook instant messenger)
fring needs u to register first
its free, so register a fring acc
im from india, gprs (edge) isnt very reliable here
if my connection goes, i dont know why but fring crashes
even fim crashes!
check them out
they arent troublesome
can be removed without any pain

i use Parlingo its cross platform
Used it on my Elf was great ran in the background and popped up like a text message.
palringo.com

Nimbuzz
You can try also numbuzz. Its freeware , it can connect to Yahoo! , Skype, Aol, Windows live and much more. The only problem is that is kinda slow on my Touch.

palringo
I like Palringo.. Really nice app.. supports multiple accounts log in. Using 2 yahoo with it.

yeah.. i agree. use parlinggo, i already try all but parlinggo is the best for chat.

Palringo is definitely the best. It also works with a push server, meaning your messages get received by the palringo servers and then sent back to you when you're available. This is particularly useful if you're using an unreliable data connection (IE: Third world country)
It would always crash on my elfin under winmo 6.0. But after I upgraded to the Onyx winmo 6.5 rom it works like a charm.
