SMS like chat anyone?

Ok, I am a big fan of windows mobile. I have used most such as BlackBerry, Palm, Symbian... There's only one piece of software I cannot seem to find for WinMobile. I would like to find something to make text messaging similar to the Treo or BlackBerry. Treat text messaging like instant messaging. Does anyone know of software that gives Windows Mobile the capability of this?
-Thanks for the recommendation for search vijay!

Old news
Search (hard) for "Palm messaging".

In searching for Palm Messaging I came across SMS Threader. It's awesome.
Thanks

Maybe you didn't have to search quite THAT hard : )

By hard, I meant, accounting for the fact that the cabs have now been removed. But they're still available in various places....

yup yup

Ok.. found This as well
Palm Threaded SMS Application for WM5
http://ppcgeeks.com/threaded-sms-is-working-update-10-29-t978.html

this one's from O2SMSPlus

Is that O2 SMS Plus available to the public? Couldn't find it to download....
The Threader looks great, but i didn't want to install the CF 2.0 if possible...

By using these programs you don't get charged for text messages?

no, it's just a better way to text. these are still sending SMS's, if i am correct.

I try to install the SMS threader "to device", and get the error: cannot be installed..
HELP

did you install the .NET Compact framework 2.0 first?
You can download it here
It looks like this program needs this to run, which is too bad b/c i am told that takes up a lot of memory

I guess it cant be installed to storage?
Is it worth it to run this chat program....?
Thanks

CF2 is required by a lot of other apps as well; see for example http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in...n_of_net_compact_framewo&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 for an almost complete list of the best CF2-dependent titles.

It wont let me install// I dont have free 24mgb internal program memory...
Having trouble installing Resco or Total commander also?
Thanks

NET CF 2.0 stinks. Too slow to load, etc. Maybe with AKU 3.2 it will be faster since it will be native, who knows.
The Palm app BLOWS all the other apps out of the water. Not even close. I hope you find the .cab, its worth it.

The Palm one dosnt require .NET Compact framework 2.0 ???
Anyone know where I can get the CAB?

i dont see or have any issues with netcfV2.0 yes its large, like 2meg, but i run programs that depend on it such as wififofum and hitchhiker, etc... i can choose the cab to install to my storage card and dont have any issues running the said programs.
and i do agree.. search very hard for the palm messaging app, this is one of my must install programs!! its fantastic!

Grand Central Dialer

Does anyone know of a grand central dialer program for windows mobile? The idea being that if you place voip calls from grand central, you can get free calls.
Let's say you have your mobile, a gizmo project account, and a grand central account. Placing outbound calls from your gizmo account (via a SIP application on your phone) will incur charges. However, if you add your gizmo account as a phone number on your grand central profile, and place a call from grand central, it makes outbound calls to both the number you are calling from, and once connected, to the number you're calling out to.
I hope that makes sense.
I have found such a thing for nokia phones here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18802
But couldn't come up with anything for windows mobile. Seems like it wouldn't be a difficult app to write, and could give us all free voip outbound calls.

I have also been looking like crazy for one, it's very annoying to keep going to M.grandcentral.com to dial anybody, even though I set it as my home page...
could somebody make a dialer for Windows mobile,, pleazzzee

I'm really really in need of one of these. Wish someone would release something!

Heck, I wish they would re-open the ability to import contacts. I am sure this wouldn't be hard to do, as all the information is right at their mobile page.

I wouldn't be so quick to judge. Although I was more excited about the iPhone than your average person, I still haven't found any reason to switch over.
Sure the iPhone does everything it does BETTER than Windows Mobile, but it just doesn't do as much stuff. Besides that, every 3g iPhone I've played with is less stable than my old Palm - and that's saying something. Windows Mobile wins in a few areas - namely versatility and stability.
Besides that, the 3g iPhone is a generation ahead of any windows mobile phone right now. We're just going to have to wait a year before we start seeing a real competitor. Windows Mobile 7, anyone?
That said - I'd like someone to create that EXACT app for windows mobile. I dialer that integrates contacts. Something I can map my phone button to.
PLEASE!

The PERl Script that Grand dialer is based on
Hopefully someone else (As I am not a app author yet) may be able to do something with this:
http://groups.google.com/group/grandcentral-help-poweruser/browse_thread/thread/977c8c295edcf2e1
This is the Perl App that the Grand dialer app is based on. basically it married a dialer interface with the mentioned perl script to make the connection to Grand central. I am still reading and trying to understand the script, however there are many here much better at this then I. Hopefully someone can take this info and run.

I'm willing to offer any needed graphic services if a programmer could become interested.

I'm interested in doing this, and also integrating with iContact.

I'd like a grand central invite if they are even still allowing it . Then I would be interested in this also, lol.

I've started a dialer, iDialer.
Please see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429984

Maybe you can create an application that is seperate from any dialer, many people like to keep their dialers.

Very very nice.

Thank you ;-)

Very nice!
Is it possible to make German Language ?
Thank you a lot

Oh wow, this just replaced Slick!

Or get it free from the developer's website: http://www.beejive.com/wm6/ppc/beta/BeejiveIM.CAB

...its good but the optimized implus I find better and not much of a battery drag.
Plus on custom roms, there are plenty of issues and development has stopped on wm

Uhm, this has been out for a long time. Furthermore, development on it has stopped, so there will be no new updates or bugfixes.

yes ive been using it for the longest...i was hopin that facebook would have been added but devel did get cut...its the best out right now as far as i.m. is concerned

thank you!!
it support unicode!! that's cool
ps: by the way, i'm using a HTC blackstone ruuning on WM6.1
but on my mobile i only have occidental font and thai font..
anybody here know a solution to add japanese, chinese, korean fonts?
PM me please

everyone in this forum has been using this for months. plus development has stopped so no fixes or improvements in the near future. guys come with something new. plus nimbuzz is way better. www.nimbuzz.com. u can chat with aim, facebook, myspace,yahoo, msn anything plaus make free international calls to any of your contacts including fone contacts through voip. gotta have unlimited data

This is old. I can't believe you guys didn't know about this. This app. drains your battery too fast. I stick with Mundu

I wanted to introduce only one programme to you.
This Messenger is what I looked for, its simple have all features I need, and it does his work...
I used Fring, Palringo but this are programs for trash, Palringo have every 5-10 minutes reconnect problems, and Fring look cheap...
I didn't know what your problem with these software is...

its nice but it sucks at the same time bcuz you cant send files thats my problem

is this app free or is it a trial?

Free... I used it about 1 Month and it run fine...

ok great. I know it costs $15 for the iPhone though.
is there any similar program that kills less battery? If i leave this on, it drains my battery in about 4-5hrs in my att fuze

Windows Live Mobile (Including Messenger!) v10.6.0034.0800 (.cab)

This is the same version I posted on samsung-omnia.org for my old Omnia i910. It works great on my Touch Pro2 as well, so I thought I'd share it here.
I don't recall who originally packed the cab. I only take credit for weeding through all of the WLM versions available back when I had my Omnia to find a fully working version, and for finding that it works on the TP2.
I've tested this on my own Touch Pro 2 (details below, and in the screenshots) to find that all functions work properly. I have not tried this out on the GSM version. If someone would please try this on the following versions and PM me the results, I will add the details to the original post;
Sprint (CDMA)
Telus (CDMA)
TMobile (GSM)
Other (Please specify)
My ROM: WM Pro 6.1 (CE OS 5.2.21052 / Build 21052.1.6.5)
Carrier: Verizon Wireless (CDMA)
WLM Version: 10.6.0034.0800
Make sure you install this to your main memory, not 'My Storage' and not a MicroSD card.. the .dll's are mapped to work as if the application is installed in the main system memory, so you'll run into problems if you ignore this tip.
Also, this version does allow you to disable the contact syncing into your phonebook. It will ask you at the first startup/sign in, or you can change it in the options menu of the application while it's running.
If you sync your Windows Live contacts into your phonebook/phone contact list, do not manually delete them from there!! Simply run Windows Live Messenger -> Select Menu -> Windows Live -> Uncheck 'Store Windows Live Contacts in your mobile phone's contact list' -> Click 'DONE' -> Click 'Done' again -> Click 'Messenger' to get back to messenger.

My TP2 comes with WL version 10.6.0052.1300... so which is newer? What has been changed?

No matter what version Messenger still with no significant changes, same old interface

My TP2 did not come with Live installed. I had to download it and it didnt come with messenger so I tried the version above, knowing it had messenger, and it worked.

I got mine off the MS site and it's 10.6.0053.1000

Ya, I've got a newer version too.

Im using 10.6.0052.1300
And i dont see much difference

My phone didn't come with Windows Live Mobile, and the version I downloaded previously from Microsoft did not come with a real messenger, it came with a link to the web-based (WAP) version. I just downloaded another version from wl.windowsmobile.com that does have the messenger.
Terribly sorry, but this was a highly sought after item for the Omnia i910 and when I downloaded the first version from Microsoft that had no working Messenger, I tried this one I posted on samsung-omnia.org awhile back to find it was working for the TP2 and it has the Messenger. By posting it here I was merely trying to help others out, because I didn't originally find the version you guys are using that has the Messenger.
If you don't want to use it, that's fine.. let it disappear into the abyss of threads.
-mak

.mak, where did you download your "first version from Microsoft"? Did you download it from here: http://mobile.microsoft.com/live/en-us/mobile/default.mspx?

My verizon phone came with the same link to the wap version of messenger and I will be using this because it looks like it is better than the old pocket msn that I downloaded to have a messenger application.

Before in 6.1 Windows live was like Google Maps
Tell us where we are & find shops around u on map

Does anyone else have the problem with the Live Mobile app when they set the schedule to "as they arrive"? I noticed when I set this the app does not synchronize very often. I had to just revert back to the 15 minute sync schedule.

NEW Windows Live for WM (Windows Phone)!!!

Just incase anybody have missed this... A new Windows Live package is available... I've installed it and I'm very impressed... I can even see Facebook status messages in the new "Windows Live Home"

So I can't test this,
Now I've got a question,,
When you log in on your phone, does your home computer disconnect?
or can it be logged in at several place at the same time
(As the windows-pc version)
Great Greet Giblet

Downloading and going to put into a test rom now.

Looks nice! I'll try it right now

Downloading and testing
thanks for share

Nice!
Looks nice indeed! Really usefull... going to use it for my ROM! Thanks for the tip!

Still don't know why they didn't give you an option to use your camera as webcam within the mobile msn version ...
Will it ever be available ? Or are there other options to achieve this ?

so does Messenger support MPOP yet?

This is very good. Note that you have to reset device after installing but it doesn't tell you to. Error messages on launch otherwise - "this is not a valid app"

Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed... blabla message (HyperDragon IV newest kaiser rom xD)

Will try thanks for informing us. This does look better.

No pb with this rom but in english only

Even if i select an other lang and clik "change", it download the 0409 file !

Lets see if the big Achilles' Heel is still there.
Pleeeeeeease tell me limit to 50 most recent messages has been fixed? if not totally kills its utility, what a shame. Hope they finally fixed this. Don’t even get me started on how great touch flo 3d grouping emails by contact is, except it can’t read other folders but inbox. No worries I'll just move everything to inbox. Dooh!.., only 50 to sort among all my contacts. What about wm6 great type & sort feature in pocket outlook inbox?, also rendered useless. Local search only, …yep still stuck at 50 most recent. So do the math, I have 50 messages to split between my whole phonebook, the majority of emails won’t even show up in tf3d for most of the contacts. Option,.. delete all contacts except 50 and pray no one sends me more than one email, silly right?
Why should a hotmail user not switch to any of the compets, if you can’t even get access to all you mail without the major inconvenience of launching a web browser? So now, just to work with mail I have to work in 2 apps? Hotmail Pop3 route is no better, zero folder sync with online, even at ground level no sent, or deleted items sync. Might as well be a seperate email account.
Really... POOM guys, whoever came up with that one, do yourselves a favor, send 'em to google or apple.
I really... hope after making such a big stink, I get to be all embarrassed and wrong.

how do you see facebook statuses?
