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
IM+

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.
MJB
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_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?

The Agile that u uploaded , I can't get to work at all. I can't Log into AIM or Yahoo even though my Interenet is working on my Phone ?
Am I doing something Wrong ?
Same hea, it just doesn't connect at all either through 3G or WiFi.

"mbial" Are you using this and it's Working for you ?
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.
MJB
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?

Hey Everyone,
I was wondering what everyone is using for IM on the tytn? I have a need for MSN,AIM, and Skype primarily and was trying to find a good client that is free and that will handle all three. Any Suggestions?
Thanks!

Enjoy.

FRING is the best.
www.whizzper.com
but you need to have a java midlet manager.
i got the HTC OZ program but AIM doesnt work...it wont let me log in....anyone else has the same prob?
Ive searched many times for a unified client but never stumbled across palringo.. Seems pretty solid so far, thanks for the link.
I use Fring, and for Sype calls it can't be beat.. But palringo supports MSN, Yahoo, AIM, IRC, and xamp (Google chat, Livejournal, etc). I am still getting used to it, but so far it seems to be a winner.. Thanks.

IM+ is the best IMO if you want access to all im services including AIM
i think agile messenger is the best one
Awesome Freeware:
mChat 2.3 http://www.mgslab.com/files.html
Current stable release of mChat 2.3 (.NET CF 2.0)
ICQ, Jabber, MSN(alpha), Mail.ru protocols.
Animated smileys, reading x-status text(icq), privacy lists
Slick....
http://www.lonelycatgames.com/?app=slick
Palringo is the cleanest all-in-one to date. But chatting it up with others that have Palringo installed is the best way to go.
I have searched far and wide for an MSN Messenger application that would not charge me and SMS fee. It's features are outstanding. This program, QuickIM, works just like the desktop version of MSN Messenger. Of course each program has it's flaws. I think it would be great to have a pop-up window from your Home screen but hey, its a cellphone not a computer.
It was easy to setup and easy for me. I installed it on my Blackberry 8310 and I was good to go. Probably the best advanatage that I have found is simply being able to have QuickIM run in the background while I am doing other things, but also being able to use emoticons. Just like home. I recommened it! Its the first program on my list.
Check it out for yourself, at least download it and give it a try. Visit QuickIM.com
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?

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?
I've done a little research into this and I'm wondering if there's an application to use that I can send text messages through my PC when my S620 is connected?
I found a Microsoft SMS program that seems to only work with non-smart phones. I would think they especially make an app for Windows Mobile phones if they have one for plain old cell phones.
Any know anything?
hey there
There's a product called TrueConnect but it aint free. Look for MyMobile which is almost the same, but ya cant text (that i know off) using it. If anyone knows any different, post a reply please.
DashWire allows it and it's free...

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
