Pls don't blast me for posting this. I have read the black 2.5 thread and could not find a working solution for BB. The chef have mention that someone is cooking to make it work as its a "ball breaker" to edit it. he he i remember this is the master chef for black 2.5 words.
My question is whether anybody have got it to work.
not yet,
working progress........ on HEX editing the OS.nb that is.
walshieau is also looking at another way to hack the bbconnect executables for them to work on wm6 without HEX editing the OS.nb
only time will tell.
sit tight.

thanks for the trouble n effort
Holding our breath
I wanted to thank all the chefs again for all the hard work, late hours, and answering questions on this forum.
For many of us still holding on to get the blackberry connect working on 2.5.
Anxiously waiting.

Blackberry on Black 2.5
just a friendly bump to see if anyone currently has a working solution.
Thanks everyone for their work on this!
not yet... still working on it... might have found a solution... stay tunned
An alternative to the BB Connect could be the new BB Application suite
http://www.rim.com/news/press/2007/pr-23_04_2007-01.shtml
Apperently full BB functionality on WM6
Don't know when or how it will be released. Hopefully it will be available as a standalone package but even if it is packaged with operator's roms I expect it won't be long before it is extracted and packaged as a standalone app.

not slated for release for at least 3 months... they have issues
Have you tried v4.0 of BB Connect for PPC?
I just installed it on my 838 Pro running Black 2.5 and it installs and seems to connect however I dont have a Blackberry sim card and i'm not sure if i have a license available for me on the BES server at my work (but i prefer Exchange push email anyway)
I posted about BB Connect 4.0 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=304973
As was downloaded from the Dopod Website it could also be locked to Dopod devices but not sure.
EDIT: I just installed the ActiveSync BBConnect Desktop Software on Vista and it was able to tell my my account on the BES server isnt configured so looks like its working OK on my Black 2.5 device and Vista Laptop.
well this fantastic news if bbconnect works based on the new version.
now i can put my focus on black 3.0 as well the customization app entitled "PIMP MY BLACK" that will be part of Black 3.0

JJ,
I can confirm that BBC v4.0 does work on Black 2.0, but it does not work on 2.5. I flashed Black 2.5 and had no success, but am currently running BBC v4.0 with Black 2.0, with no problems. Might I add that BBC v4.0 allows syncing Contacts, Calendar, Task and Notes with BES and you can now view picture attachments
BB Connect 4 on Black 2.5
Trying BBC 4.0 on Black 2.5.
However no luck connecting.
However I know sometimes you need help from IT with renewed activation.
So more tomorrow and fingers crossed.

p.s. Installation allways work. Also with the older clients. Getting connected to RIM is often the issue.
BBC 4.0 working on Black 2.0
I got bbc 4.0 working on black 2.0. Seems to zip through 3G downloads. I like the bbc 4.0 ui but it enforces our IT policy regarding passwords which is awkward on hermes.

I agree, having the IT Policy automatic lock and password is very awkward and makes the 8525 very difficult to use. This was an unwelcome added feature.
Jasjamming, are you still planning on trying to fix blackberry with 2.5, or are you waiting for version 3.0.
Keep up the good work!
Was wondering is this release in relation to the application suite that RIM have indicated as i see a folder with BB Browser and BB IE browser which uses the data connection from BB toconnect to internet.
The password locking thing is neat but cumbersome. I'm still trying to figure out how to get the contacts over. I'm still using WM 5 as Black 2.5 as posted by other user doesnt seem to work.
Now trying to do the installation from a hard reset PPC and see how it goes.
I don't like the password thing at all....Looks like I may have to go back to previous bbconnect to get around it. Don't want to be typing the password everytime I want to check email....it was the reason to switch to 8525 and bbconnect from my blackberry in the first place.

Sorry.. Black 2.5 doesn't work. On black 2.0 it runs well.
JJ I would say focus on 3.0 for now and when its released focused on getting 3.0 to work with BB. Since its so close I think most of the BBC users can wait a bit longer on Black 2.0 and then move to Black 3.
Just my 2 cents,
Arnie
So besides the ability for our coporate Lotus Notes / BES admins to enforce policies, make me enter password every hour, shut my PPC down , enterprise activation, syncing contacts, tasks and notes and to view picture attachments what would be another appealing reason for me to upgrade from BBC 2.X ?
Have anyone tested BBC 4.0 on LVSW 0429 ROM yet ?
TIA
BBC Features comparison chart.
It did not work for me on the LVSW 0429 ROM, installed found server for about 5 secs said connected then dropped out.
the only IM program I use is aim. I've read the comparison chart and a few threads I found searching but I haven't really seen one that comments directly on the aim functionality of the programs.
what client do you all like best for aim?
thanks

I use IM+ and i like it.
Agile Messenger all the way. Has softkey support for WM5/6 which IM+ does not. Plus IM+ doesnt auto-reconnect if you drop cellular signal. Agile does.

I use MunduIM. It's cheap, has a decent interface, and works well.

auto reconnect seems like a must have feature if you want people to be able to communicate to you on aim reliably.
i was looking for an IM program that works with sms so i downloaded mobile IM (oz communcations) via medianet and it works ok, i dunno why but windows mobile makes everything seem complicated. i had the same prog on my old sony ericsson w810 and it seemed to work a lot smoother
im also looking for a good Aim client sort of like the one similar to the sorry ass t-mobile sidekick... an aim client that includes ur buddies away messages next to there name and also has there icon picture visable
I've noticed a majot trend- seems like almost everyone here wants something that used data instead of SMS for IM. I'm quite the opposite, and am looking for a client that works like the original OEM, that uses SMS. I actually don't have a data plan, and even if I did, I have unlimited IM through SMS and would rather use that than a data connection.
I've found CABs of the Oz client used on both AT&T and T-Mobile, and I've installed both, but both give me the same strange error when I run it.

Any ideas or hints on this one? Any good IM clients out there for WM6 that would use SMS, or at least give you the option to use SMS?
slick messenger..
can buzz in yahoo and live messenger with it
dunno in aim because i didnt have aim id
For those looking for IM over SMS get the latest OZ Instant Messenger and Today plugin here:
http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/Kaiser Cab Collections/OZ_Instant_Messanger_at_t_AKU_0.4.4.CAB
http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/Kaiser Cab Collections/OZ_IM_Today_Plugin.CAB
For those looking for IM over DATA get Agile Messenger here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/57054171/agile_messenger_ppc.CAB.html
slick is definitely the best.. its so fast to when i send messages it actually is instant unlike other programs. plus it free and supports a wide variety of protocols.
Without question, agile is just as "instant" as slick and FAR better looking than slick (which looks like it was directly ported from a series 60 device and doesnt even utilize the windows mobile interface.) Have you even tried it?

Go figure it's having problems...the proxy used by this program is currently offline, but it is a temporary problem. Expect it to be resolved soon. It is NOT the program, but the web proxy. Please be patient and it'll work soon.

Interesting ? And exactly Who's Proxy Is this going through.... Please PM me if this is Sensitive Material
Anyway to Tunnel it Through my own Proxy Server ? So I don;t have to Rely on Someone elses ?
i have used agile before and i admit the slick interface isn't as nice as agile, but its not unbearable. i actually kind of like the simplistic streamlined look though. plus slick has features such as file transfers, offline ims, messages history, and a lot more configuration options.
also doesn't agile require you to purchase a key after a certain amount of uses?
Hi there i also have a dutcht version of the excaliber and i have instalt windows live messenger beta on it but it keeps saying that there is a problem with my internet connexion. i am a orange costomer can any one help me with this?

Does anyone know where I can find the latest binary for WLM?
IM Client
Hello again all, I was wondering what program everyone is using for instant messaging? I'm using the one that came bundled with my t-mo dash but I just don't like it. Anyone have any suggetions?
You might as well do a search or take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290153&highlight=
I'm using Agile Messanger and I'm absolutely satisfied.
i am using the new skype. it works good with wifi and chatting also works with gprs after you once connected via wifi, the first time.
There is a new one that does them all (AIM, MSN, GTalk, Yahoo, ICQ, and Jabber) that is currently free and Java based. I quit using IM+ (which I paid for) and am using it exclusively. Currently the beta testing is closed while I think they upgrade their servers, but should open up again shortly I think).
It is supposed to be for the crackberries, but works great on my Dash and K-Jam:

Octro: www.octro.com
Free during beta. Big thing about it is it does Google Talk (VOIP) over 3g or even just 1x speeds.
Also does IM with GTalk, AIM, Y!, MSN and ICQ. It has a nice today plugin, customized away messages and auto-login/logout.

Works on my Excalibur and Blackjack..
I find Octro little bit strange as I don't see all of my contacts there and also Octro does not download the "nicknames" from ICQ server so I see only their IDs
Anyone know where I can get the OzInstantMessenger cab?
Agile Messenger is all you'll need. There are some annoying bugs here and there, but for the features it has, I believe it is the best option out there.

Wow, I have been using Octro for Gtalk but I had no idea that they also supported Y! and MSN! Is this a a new feature? I just updated mine like 3 weeks ago. That's wonderful (makes my paid version of IM+ looks positively lame).
Edit: Ahh, I am running v1.0 and v1.01 onwards added support for multiple chat clients. How fantastic!

it used to be until they unleashed that crazy pricing scheme. Plus, I get errors on staturp from it. It's never been the most stable either.

1.03 just came out about 3 days ago. It now adds vibration to the smartphone edition (which was lacking). It enables automatically in the "meeting" profile, etc.
such a great app. I'm hoping they add some SMS relay to the system too to save battery life (like Verichat had)...

McHale, did you have to do anything special to get JiveTalk running on your Dash or KJam. What version did you install? I am wanting to load this on my P3600 if at all possible, but I am getting java errors.
Thanks,
Shawn
I would also like to know how you got Jive Talk on the Dash. I just switched from a Pearl and liked using it on the BB, I would love to have it on my Dash tho. Any info would be great.
MSN Live
Is there a way just to get MSN Live from WM6 into WM5? Does anyone has it that could share it?

Install the Marketplace cab that's floating around from WM6.5. Trapster is available for free and works fine in WM6.1, but it is a bit slow to load and navigate around.
Great App Sean,
would love to see Trapster Lite developed that uses GPS but no data connection (offline use), when you see a trap if logs the coordinates and uploads when connected to the internet. The map is very data intensive and would end up costing me a lot of money. Or an option to turn off the map but still get the warnings.
Would be also great working with tomtom on windows mobile so that you could be intigrated.
Just install w/the cab...worked fine for me. Used it yesterday on a 5 hours drive, pointed out police speed traps a few times. ;D
Hi Guys,
I'm just a noob as you can probably see from my number of posts on this forum.
Just bought my HD2 (Virgin Mobile) a couple of months ago, and am following the forum and website every single day for new things to learn/install etc.
As i am a big Yahoo Messenger user, i have tried different 3rd party software e.g. Palringo, Nimbuzz etc for yahoo chatting but is not really compared to the real thing and by that i mean (..and please don't shoot me) the iphone version.
I bought the HD2 for the simple reason that i hate Apple, don't like them one bit but some apps like Yahoo messenger are cool .
I like the things like shake to buzz someone or the interface of the app or sending files feature etc.
So now i am urging/challenging all the great devs in this community, can someone port the Iphone version of Yahoo Messenger app to WM or design one from scratch but with all the features that it has?
Thanks in advance
Well, i'm pretty sure that application will coming soon with the same user interface as like on iphone.
i hope i can help you
try out the oz messenger, search the forum as oz messenger, hope so that some of the messenger version matches HD2. as far as I remember theres a lot of variation , combination and versions. try until you find the most suitable one for HD2 ..
best of luck

Thanks. Apparently this uses your SMS and not your internet connection. I have around 3000 inclusive text and unlimited, well around 1GB, internet plan so i would've liked to use my internet connection.
I think i just need to wait until a wm version same as the iphone will pop up, but i would still never buy an Iphone
the oz messenger uses date not text service. I use it everyday. It has yahoo, AOL, and hotmail (I think). this program supports auto start on windows start up, Background sounds and Alerts. It supportsBuzz, smilies, and auto sawing of Conversations. I used it with the touch (QVGA), Touch Pro (VGA), & Touch Pro2 (WVGA). seems to work on all resolutions. It should work on Data Connection & Wifi.
let me know how you like it...
Good Luck
