Sadly there is not an option as of yet. This is one of the most disappointing things about it. Who the hell even uses yahoo messenger? =P
I hope they can find a way to make it truly compatible with all messaging services such as MSN and AIM. Im surprised they were only able to cater to yahoo users and I have no yahoo messenger using friends. bummer

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!

Best FREE Gtalk Client

Can anyone suggest a good (and free) GTalk client ? I have tried Talkonaut and IM+ but I have had stability problems with both.
Thanks
Fring is pretty good.
OctroTalk and BeejiveIM are also good.
I like Palringo

PIGEON! is a good alternative. It's an ICQ/Jabber client that supports GTalk as well. It has a lot of customization options. In past experiences it has ran quite well for myself and a friend.
use skype
Use Skype itsfree
I think Nimbuzz is the best.
Nimbuzz is in 1 in All concept.
Nimbuzz Mobile lets you call, chat, message, and send files on the go, for free.
It combines all your buddies:
Skype,
MSN,
Yahoo,
ICQ,
AIM,
Google Talk
and more.
One login, one contact list, all accounts.
It's light and there is also a PC version available.

It is great software but I believe he requested an IM client for use with the Google Talk service.

Good call. This would have been my second suggestion for him. Nimbuzz brings to Windows Mobile what Trillian brought to Windows on the PC (when it was first released).

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.

Hey
Anyone managed to get video chats on the A7 ?

I haven't been able to get the video portion of yahoo messenger to activate. I downloaded the plugin, but video is grayed out and not an option.
Running Dexter v1.2
Yahoo Messenger v1.3.2

You need to use the latest yahoo messenger for windows 10.

Use a windows application on an Android device... and intended for a version of windows that won't be released for somewhere around six years?
I don't get what your itching at here.
I have the same version of yahoo messenger and the plugin on the tablet like yours and the yahoo messenger 10 on my PC and I can do video chat between my PC and the tablet easily. The reason you need yahoo messenger 10 on the PC is because the android version of yahoo messenger disables the video chat feature when it detects the other side running an older version and as well the format of the video stream is only supported by yahoo messenger 10 on the PC and the android version.
Ytain
Pretty sure his commented was in regards to the windows 10
Sorry for the confusion I might have caused.
Ytain
Got this working
Yahoo messenger video chat is now working. I tested it from an ipod touch 4th gen and video is coming through on both ends.
Incoming video to the A7 from the ipod was not good, but the video from the A7 to the touch was great.
