yahoo go and outlook with wm6

I am using Black 2.0. I love it btw.. Problem is with Yahoo Go (I guess ver 1; 2.0 not available)
Seems to work ok and lists/syncs emails however when I go to look at an individual mail all i see is a blank white screen. I suspect this may have to do with the outlook upgrade. Is anyone else experiencing this? I tried direct POP access and it works fine.

I rec'd the same issues when trying to use wm6 with yahoo go, i believe that yahoo go is only workable with wm5.

I am having the same problem.
I tried several WM6 ROM flavors and all have the same problem.
Black 3.0.1
Black Dymond
LVSW's latest
faria's latest

This is a known issue .. to-date, Yahoo Go does not work with WM6

Heh... did they finally release Go! for the Hermes family? Last I checked it said "not yet available for your WM5 device."

Never formally released, but you can pull a WM5 windows version off the web which works fine on the hermes ... unfortunately not WM6 yet (to my knowledge)

I've gotten Yahoo! Go to work with my WM6 device.
The problem everyone seems to be having is that when one goes into the message, a blank white screen appears, correct?
The same thing happened to me. So from that 'white screen' message, I scrolled to the next message, and voila! I could see my messages again.
I guess this wont work if you only have one email in your Yahoo! mailbox, but it's better than nothing, eh?

Can someone post the cab for Y!Go2.0?

Thanks, is this 2.0?

Back on my Symbian, Yahoo Go was great. Not too much of a battery or resource drain. However on WM6, holy crap, it is a huge hog. I had it for a
about two days before I gave it up.
Since battery life is most important to me, I decided to stick with Windows Live instead.

Hi,
I'm from Malaysia and when I try to download Yahoo Go using my mobile number it says that the version is not available yet.
I'm wondering if someone could post the cab file here or somewhere where I can download to test it out.
Thanks.

Yahoo Go! and Windows Mobile 6

Call me crazy, but I decided to install the new Yahoo Go! 2.0 (beta) on my device (just to see if it is as crappy as the old version). The Yahoo website recognized that I was running WM6 ... nice ... I have (for those who care) Sleuth 3.1 installed at the moment.
So, far, it is running nicely. I like getting my yahoo mail on my 8525 without having to sign up for any special yahoo plan. Time will tell whether there are memory leaks.
For those in the United States, you can download from http://us.get.go.yahoo.com on your PDA ... or if you prefer, the cab file I downloaded is below. [there presumably is another link for other countries]
For others who try this out, we can use this thread to compare notes.

I was hoping the holdup was a new messenger... bah.

You know, the "push" side of things doesn't seem to be working for my Yahoo Mail... it says in settings it has it, but it's not pushing anything...

i know shame about the push
just out of interest which do people prefer, live search or yahoo go?
they're both very similar

Live Search doesn't have Maps.. .. that's what I like about Yahoo Go! .. that and it seems to be device specific.

hey same here Push is not wokring !!!!!

I wish there was some way to select and delete multiple emails .. anyone figure that out? Or even just to scroll through emails easily. The mail interface, in general, seems to suck.

same thing i said... no messenger... yahoo sucks ass. i think charging for im is dispicable. once you've got a net plan it should be free. i dont care if they put ads on it. they're so greedy they make deals with the carriers to milk us each message. and that forces you to buy a text plan.
thats why google will always be ahead of yahoo. google understands that you can make just as much, if not more money in ads and give away products free as if you would try to milk customers.
in conclusion: yahoo go with no messenger.... they lost!
on the brighter side, its just beta so maybe the official version will have it.

i love the go gui. yet the live gui is more to the point and simplistic, and that can be to the user's advantage.

Yeah, the Go GUI is totally sweet actually. Very easy to navigate. Now, I gotta convince my buddies at google to make something like this.....<wink>

Wrong. I don't know what you're talking about because Live Search has both Road and Aerial maps...
I've been playing with the new Go 2.0 today... mostly unimpressed. It runs slow and I've had to re install it once already.
The only cool thing I've found about it so far is the direct Flickr uploading ability. That is cool, everything else is sub-par.

Installed the new Go 2.0 beta today with no problems after reading this thread. I'll be playing with it the next few days. So far the GUI looks nice, but runs slow on my Edge connection.

It works pretty nice as an RSS Reader as well. One thing I really liked about the old Yahoo Go, is as soon as you took a picture, it would upload it to your yahoo photos if you wanted it to. Now with the Flikr deal, it doesn't do that... You have to go into the GUI and pick pictures to upload. Now you can manage the pictures better though... I have mixed feelings about that one.

Just had to uninstall yahoo Go because my phone kept freezing up..

Why can't I get Yahoo Go to work? My connection is set to Media net. I can't get Yahoo Go to connect, Google Maps to connect, Live Search to connect. Before I upgraded to WM6 I could get 3rd party apps to run fine.
I tried switching to my isp instead but when I switch to it, I get a message that 'the answering modem has disconnected....'
Can anyone help me?

If you have not put in your operator settings in, it will not connect because the settings are blank.

same here. Conclusion: NOT very impressive

Is a memory sucker too.
Prior to install would have 18-19mb of RAM avail.
After install was down to 12-14mb.
Now after uninstall back to normal.
With most email going through my exchange server and google maps and live-search, I see no need for more bloatware.

hear hear!

Oh well.
I had been waiting for this software for a while now. I can't believe they didn't include IM!

Is There A Real Fix For Disappearing Email Accounts?

POP Email accounts and elements of Network setting disappear once in a while.
It happens with all the new ROMs. I've done the mUn thing, where one opens a connection, stops it and restarts. But the accounts still disappear, sometimes after weeks of use, sometimes after just a few days.
There is an app to resurrect the missing email account, but after you still have to input servers and address. Just very annoying while traveling.
What is the damned problem and is there a permanent solution?

I have changed the file registry type (File based registry) from "Hive" to "File" using tweaks2k2 and it seems ok, someone else needs to cross check it

please explain
I also would avoid this repetitive problem , could you please how to try , step by step , in simple words ?
thanks

Thanks, taiseer999! I just changed to File, keeping my fingers crossed. BTW, how long have you used it after the change without loss of settings?
tower5, you need tweaks2k2 (it has 3 changes trial and go to System Tricks/Collection 5. Check File Based Registry (WM5).
Hopefully this works (it sounds like it should.)

P.S. Perhaps. if this really works, the ROM chefs can integrate it into the ROMs. Is there any disadvantage to using File rather than Hive?

I´ve been following all the steps that mun_rus wrote down and after the last upgrade I didn´t do it right away so I lost my e-mail accounts quite a few times and when I try to set the same account up with the same name and settings the pda pops up a message saying that there´s another account with the same name and I don´t know where and I don´t see it.
But now I guess it´s working fine,after several soft resets my new account it´s till there.

It doesn't work, unfortunately:-(
Checked mail last night, a little later went to check again, and the email account had disappeared.
This is just crazy....
What is the reason this is happening? To ALL the new ROMs?

yes, mailrepair.exe do recover the mail account.
but the main problems is not only about mail account, it is a datebase lost or cert lost.
even u recover the mail account and setup all the password again to make the wm system continue working, it became unstable anyway.
once account lost, best way out is hard-reset.
in daily use, avoid to reset the handset as much as possible.

It's a security feature of wm6, bugged of course.
Disabling file system cache can help (I've never lost email account until now) but you still have to take care to close PO before a soft reset.
Ciao

been using RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship for a good while and the e-mail accounts don't even think of disappearing...so there you go...

I have also used Dobod-wwe in my HTC since it was released and never had issues with mail accounts. Also tried pdaviet and Bepe but original dobod was most stable for my HTC.

Still......Issue

just started using ax3l's lite rom, wi-fi settings and mail accounts seemed to stay there no problem untill I installed network wizard. After that everything disappears after every reset. Could that be the cause....?

just when I got most of my apps neatly reinstalled and all....has to be done all over again...at times like these I really have to fight the temptation to throw the thing against the wall...Thankfully I got an N95 as well which never loses settings so back into the pocket the P3600 goes, hail the N95
will update on that settings /mail accs business when I get the nerve to reinstall everything again

Yay, got my accounts back! Thanks!

I'm not going to pretend to know what I'm talking about, but I can tell you that in the past, it was mentioned that it had something to do with the Old and New Kernels. The Old one (WM5) was fine, while the new one (WM6) is not. At least that's what I THINK I remember.
Anways, for whatever reason, my ROMs don't have this problem. Here are a couple that I know avoid it:
[KITCHEN+ROMS][WWE][Jun.28.2010] WM6.5.1 23504 - WM6.5.5 23569 M2D Blue Re-Visit
[KITCHENS+ROMS][WWE][ITA][Nov.04.2009] WM6.5 23504 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i! OFFLINE
[KITCHENS+ROMS] [WWE] [10.27.2009] WM6.5 23081 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i!
I have used the same Kernel in Most all of my Kitchens, so maybe that is it...

Msn messenger shutting down when just running in the background. ?

Fresh hard reset actually two row, on Evo 6.5 3.00, ive never really noticed msn to shut down tho before, few times here and there but seem like now its happening more.. anyone know why mine seems to shut down when i minimize it and go on opera etc for awhile. ?
Thank'Z In advance.

I think i solved the issue i had a extracted SP Msn cab file i downloaded somewhere awhile ago and installed it over the 3VO 3.00 and now seems to stay online if anyone has this issue email me at XXXX and i can email u the cab.
Mod Edit: Edited out email address for reason mentioned

Might wanna attach the file and remove your email your opening yourself up to spam
Also means if other users have same problem they can just download, if problems uploading to site you can place on my 4shared.

well it just happened again.. so i dont think this solved the issue, Stylez.. do you know why this is happening. ?

facbook link issue

Like most people, several of my contacts have been linked to my Facebook Friends. Then if I use PIM backup or My Phone after a flash and restore my contacts, the Facebook "link" is there, but it doesn't update the picture (the picture reverts back to whatever it was before the facebook link) and it doesn't update the status' or birthday's. I have even removed all the link's, and started over, but that doesn't work. I've tried everything i can think of, but can't figure this out... has anyone else run into this and have a working fix?

Yea, seems like this is a problem all over. When I try to link a contact to a facebook profile the list of profiles I am given to select from bears no relation to my actual list of friends. Most of my friends are on there but not all, some have pics & some don't, I have old FB contacts who I have since deleted & even have 1 guy I have never heard of & has never been on my friends list.
There is a hotfix on the htc website but tried to install it & it comes up with "this hotfix is not compatible with your device"
I've been trawling to try & find a fix but there doesn't seem to be one & very little mention of the TP2.
Anyone else have some input??

Smells like a ROM issue. Did you try with the official or a different cooked one?

Hi Jackos,
still on the original winmo 6.1 as I've got loads of software & really don't fancy having to reload everything.
Looking around it seems I'm not the only one with this kind of issue.

It gets worse.
This morning I tried again, logged out of facebook via my contact card & then went to log back in. I now get "connection failed" each time I try to connect.
FB is working fine on the app & via opera etc & I've got no probs with email etc so it's not data connection or signal.
This is def confined to HTC integration of FB bugt I can't use the hotfix they have posted because it claims it is not suitable for my device!!
Any help would be much appreciated.
