So would it be possible to make an offical-ish looking app that works like MSN on blackberrys? I bloody hate the 3rd party IM clients im currently stuck with, I only care about MSN not AIM or bloody Yahoo.
I don't mind making up art work, I can't code to save myself however

what do you mean that works on blackberrys?
If you mean one that can communicate with BBIM then thats not possible, thats only for Blackberrys.
Also there is no official android MSN app. Ebuddy works fine, you only need to add a MSN account and then it wont show or ask you about anything else. It will auto sign in your MSN account when you launch your app and then you can start chatting away. There is nothing wrong with Ebuddy
msntalk is free on the market. working very fine for me. its not adfree but not that disturbing

No no for blackberry or to communicate, I mean something that looks like the MSN app provided by Microsoft/Blackberry, I am aware of eBuddy as I currently use it, In my opinion it is nasty but also the best of them, Why I was hoping to go about getting a official looking MSN app on Android
I would love a real MSN Client. Like in Windows Mobile and BlackBerry.
With:
- Change your User Icon
- Change your Nickname
- Change your Personal Message
- Offline Messaging
- Able to send and receive buzzers
- Able to send and receive files.
- While looking good without crappy iPhone-style bubbles (Looking at you eBuddy!)

I would be happy with just standard messages with the ability to change Nickname and personal message, User icon would be a bonus all the other stuff im not TO fussed about, especially since "Windows Live" has changed the send on files like photo to a sharing experience
Is it just T-Mo UK that blocks MSN via 3G, then (that is, the official version on :1873).
As far as im aware the "Official" version is made and provided by Three and only works on there network
Any pictures of this 'Three' version? Also, isn't there a way to reverse engineer their stuff
OT: I prefer to use Google Talk for chatting. Is anyone else using transports to connect to ICQ and MSN via Google Talk?

I have it on my phone but it's very basic.
I can't take a picture of it because I don't get a 3G singnal in my house. When you open MSN if it dosen't detect a 3G network it says Please connect to the 3G network and then just shuts down.

Thats why transports are used to chat to your ICQ and MSN (and other IM services) buddies from Google Talk.
As I said anybody that I actually want to talk to is on MSN, In the UK ICQ or AIM weren't really popular, so everyone of interest is on MSN
Correct!
And I said I'm chatting to MSN buddies from Google Talk App...
MSN Talk is the best I've found so far, does everything you want and has a very nice UI aswell.

Hm, my Google Talk android app fc's on me, when I try to contact a MSN contact via transports. Any comment on that ?

Here it works all fine...
Can you tell which phone / rom / gtalk version ? And possibly the jabber msn transport server (doubt that would make a difference, protocol is protocol) ?
Let say i'm on wifi and have skype, can i use it somehow to call for virtually free other skype contacs?

Yes, thats how Skype works. I have tested this on the Skype Beta App
I tested Skype Beta too, but it actually called up a number for me...
So no free calls yet (for me at least)...
as far as i know there is only skype lite beta available and you can't use voip.
they removed the normal skype app because of some verizon cooperation:

They also removed the Windows mobile version:

sry, i cant post links here :/
ware can i download any verion of skype for android ? i couldnt find any drove me fruit loopy looking ty afics your links are no good they just link to skype who ask you tp put ya phone number in then send you a link to the mobile version of the site that then tells me theres no version of skype for my phone ami missing somthing ? which i already spent hours going round and round in circles with i truly hate skype. because i have credit friends and family on it, personally hope skype burns so people change.
No Skype version available until Skype makes it available. There used to be fring but they are having issues with Skype at the moment and the only people with true Skype for Android are Verizon customers.
Hello companies, there's a whole world other than America available.

as fring has pulled skype integration your best bet is probably nimbuzz, some people swear by it but i never got on with it personally.
i use skype lite as even though it dials a local number i have unltd landline calls on tmo in the uk so it is the same as free for me

sorry but thats skype light, it doesn't use voip, it calls a number
IM+ is going to have Skype support on their next version, currently beta is available (3.0.6), but Skype stays online only 5 minutes (beta limitation only)
So, until next IM+: Fring + Skype Lite + Nimbuzz
I use Fring, you can find it on market. Fring supports msn, icq, skype, +++
i know but can you talk over skype?

Fring does not support Skype anymore...http://www.fring.com frontpage says it all, it's banned

And Skype say they didn't ban Fring. Ho hum :-(
http://blogs.skype.com/en/2010/07/fring.html
In this case, however, there is no truth to Fring’s claims that Skype has blocked it. Fring made the decision to remove Skype functionality on its own.

Has anyone been able to get sipdroid to connect to the Skype network for voip calls?
I'm not really interested in skype chat, I just want the skype to skype calling.
I changed to Nimbuzz.
It offers a constant Skype VOIP connection.
so you can actually talk/phone?
IM+ 3.x has been released, Pro version ($4.95) seem to work well with Skype and MSN, free version is logging out Skype after 5 min inactivity.

I believe in the US only atm
So just to clarify, this is the GoogleMusic app fully working in the UK? I thought the service was currently US only? How do you upload files if the PC client only allows US connections?
The application will work on any device but the actual music beta service is US only unless they extend it to other countries. I'm using the app and its really good and has a widget too unlike the stock player you just lose the lockscreen and notification controls.

Just to confirm, you can also get the Google Music service to work in the UK. There is a workaround. I've had it running for about a year now.
Yeah i've been using google play music for about a year or so and i'm from UK, i download a programme called TOR to help me get access to google play music.
Basically when you log into play music with your details it only takes the IP address of the first log-in and stores that.
So TOR lets u use an IP address from US to log-in to play music once that is done you can log-in any time any where . . . such a sweet programme.
download TOR and then search for instructions on how to do it . . shudn't be hard to find
I own the lg optimus 2x which isn't an official 3 phone so i can't download the most recent updates for these 2 apps could someone with an sgs2 download them both and post the apk.

What do you mean they are not supporting it no more? I recently had a big argument with them about it because they wouldn't allow it to be downloaded by phones they don't sell even tho it works on all android devices above 2.0, they clearly stated to get a three phone to get free msn and skype calls, to which i told them to shove it right up their ars.
Already have the msn app but its an older version and very slow even on my o2x, and doesn't respond well to being minimized, i cant find anything in the search a million things turn up when i search three skype app or msn.
Skype 4 android
