Listen to Es_bih I just had the same exact problem I I flashed Kavana's rom installed OZ Messenger to storage card and everytime I tried to connect I would get text messaages and connection failed. I uninstalled it and thought hmmm lets try installing to device cause I remembered reading somewhere that some programs trip if there installed on your storage card. Sure enough it worked right out of the gate. so try what he said he knows what he is talking about.:D
[HTC Excalibur] es_bih:
All my other programs work fine on the storage card. OZ however, is a device native application and aside integrated to connect via your network as it uses sms. I am guessing that that is the reason. It probably cannot set itself, and since you really have no options of connection settings that is the only avenue I know to get it to work. For At&t there may be a natwork specific version available through the oz website. i know there is a Tmo version, etc.
[HTC Excalibur] MightyMike:
does anyone have an oz messenger install including msn? the ones posted here only have aol/icq/yahoo :(

i only use msn
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Try Palringo. It works for MSN and all the others listed above. (www.palringo.com)
[HTC Excalibur] MightyMike:
i uunderstand that, although i started looking into oz due to the fact that everyone says it uses sms rather than data...

that's why i'm looking for this instead :) i could just use the built in live messenger on my phone, but i rather have oz for the sms purpose!
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
MSN Messenger Comes IN Ricky's version {14} 6.1 ROM

This is what you can do just go to http://www.lonelycatgames.com and get "SLICK" version 42 and all your problems will go away...........!:D
[HTC Excalibur] MightyMike:
read my above post...

correct me if i'm wrong, does oz messenger still require data? im under the assumption that it only uses sms style messaging, which is awesome cause i have unlim. text w/o data plan....

am i correct? or am i misunderstanding something?
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Oz Uses SMS

With the Oz messenger, their is a copy that works correct on this website and they are one million copies:D that don't work, always giving you the error message, happy hunting, but you are better off with SLICK, always works correct..............!:D
[HTC Excalibur] RobCNCG:
After about 4 hours of staying up all night trying to find the "right" tmobile oz cab file to download, I finally figured out what I believe most of us have all been doing wrong!

Ok when you first begin installing the file into your mobile device, it gives you a choice of where to save the program to:

1) device

2) storage (memory card)

3) Bluetooth

I finally realized that the only way to get it to work is to save it to the device, nothing else! I am almost willing to bet my $600 HTC Tilt that all of you have been trying to save the file to the memory card because duuhhh, it saves space on the phone, helping it stay responsive and quick.

The clue that tipped me off was the two forward slashes that were seperating the last two storage options from the circles that u have to click.

I know how frustrating this stuff can be, especially since i'm obssessively stubborn and pig headed lol so I really hope this helps most, if not all of you!

*Be the change that you wish to see*
[HTC Excalibur] ed02:
It worked for me, I had try this a while back but i install it to the memory card and it didnt work, I install it to my phone today and its up and running.
[HTC Excalibur] RobCNCG:
I'm glad to hear I helped at least one person! Enjoy!:D
[HTC Excalibur] mar11974:
If the OZMessenger.cab I posted doesn't work, please let me know so I can remove it. I used the OZMessenger.cab from Cingular as a template and replaced the files with the TMO ones from the dash, I tested it, but if anyone is having issues let me know. I have tested files before and others had issues, so it's no big deal.
[HTC Excalibur] ed02:
hey mar11974 i forgot to mention it was your file the one I used, so its working great, i actually download it from my phone and install it from there, so i think you should leave it up.
[HTC Excalibur] spikey911:
This helped many people.

I like this better than Slick because when you lose signal OZ will keep on ticking, but Slick will network error..
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
cuz oz is different fom slick.. oz is used from sms
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
Oz Messenger

is there a registry value to have a vibrate everytime u get an im on oz messenger :(
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
anybody?? come on
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
ummm let me check this out for you and I will get back to you asap okay
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
ok thanks i owe u one
[HTC Excalibur] RussianSolja:

[HTC Excalibur] jacknmary:
Windows Live Messenger

Does the Windows Live messenger use text messages or data?

Found it, im an idiot. SMS...

that sucks
[HTC Excalibur] robertunes:
repost

could you repost the file, it has been deleted by the uploader.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Here you Go :)
[HTC Excalibur] juanitto80:
SWEET

Awesome yeah I was trying to save space by trying to install it on my card. It works now that ive installed it on my device. works on my tilt

one questions will this also work on my 730 smartphone?

thanks
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
hello guys, I'm new to this forum, I come from a blackberry background, www.blackberrygtd.com, that's my site, now I'm the proud owner of a Dash :), and there is a great application called JiveTalk over at www.beejive.com and they are beta testing for windows mobile, this IM client rules the blackberry so perhaps you can check it out, I certainly will
[HTC Excalibur] McHale:
I do and a lot of us that were Agile Messenger users made the switch a while ago. I use it daily and am quite happy with it.

I was the first beta tester for JiveTalk and it was REALLY rough at the time and has come a long way since then. BUt it will be going to a pay model at some point.

-Mc
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
don't know if ya know

AIM is currently in the beta 2 testing stage of an official AIM messenger for Windows Mobile. I haven't tried it as of yet.

Here it is if ya wanna give her a whirl. Let me know
[HTC Excalibur] jacknmary:
palringo.com
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
I Second that.

I personally use Palringo and I love it. I've tried a few and Palringo is the only I liked. You can not only use for IM but also for vocal IM. Check it out at - www.palringo.com

http://www.palringo.com
[HTC Excalibur] h4waii:
Also give Slick IM a try. I mainly use Palringo though, data is really minimal on it since it's passed through the palringo gateway servers.
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
that mobile aim would be cool if it wasnt such a memory hog...i mean wow.
[HTC Excalibur] jhoff80:
I really like Slick. However, there's a major issue with it. If you're trying to use AIM to a person with Trillian, Meebo, Miranda, Pidgin, etc, then they don't receive your IM.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I would recommend palringo.com... It seems to do the job for a multiple IM client and it works fairly smooth.
[HTC Excalibur] spitfire123123:
hey guys, no one is willing to spread word on which device to chose for nimbuzz which seems to be really nice, ive got the java versions however but they suck really badly.

nimbuzz does not include the s620 and i cant seem to find a similar device......

cheers

My windows messenger homescreen panel has dissapeared...

hi

i switched on me phone and for some odd reason i was missing the windows live/messenger panel.

any ideas or has it happened before to any of you.

i checked in the chome panel editing program and windows live was highlighted red but apperently visible among the other pael blades...

cheers guys
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Did you install or uninstall any programs recently. Because it happened to me a while back when I installed and then uninstalled the weather application.
[HTC Excalibur] spitfire123123:
well, i install and uninstall programs all the time, the funny thing is is that windows live service's are still installed......

edit: i remeber installing skype and that tried to mess with the homescreen.

i tried uninstalling it but its made no difference...

cheers

Kavana 6.1 Upgrade! NOW NO INSTANT MESSANGER

Hey , Guys i just upgrade my Excalibur to Kavana 6. Now i dont have any instant messenger programs at all. What can i do to get it back without downgrading??? P.S. i do not have a internet plan on my account. :confused:
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh so you are looking for the regular instant messenger that came with the phone correct? Also, make sure that you run the connection wizard under the tools folder in the new rom in order to get this working okay.

Well here it is, just DOWNLOD THIS and drag it to your phone and install from your phone...

Any problems feel free to PM me... :)
[HTC Excalibur] Do0zman:
does this charge as text message usage or internet usage?
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
This charges as text message usage.
[HTC Excalibur] Do0zman:
Thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
No problem man anytime.
[HTC Excalibur] Excali:
Thanks alot brother, very knowledgeable:D
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
No problem man, hope everything works smoothly with your new rom.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
You should also try the internet plan if you would like its only 5.99... ;)
[HTC Excalibur] unknown-singh:
windows messenger?

Hi i have a HTC S620 running wm6 , im looking for windows messenger that works over wifi, and also a compatable opera browser.

thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
Messenger won't connect over EDGE/GPRS

I was wondering if someone could help me set up my windows live messenger (sorry if this has been posted before). I have set up my connections so that everything else works over the T-mobile data connection (this includes Windows live search, google maps, IE and zumobi) but for some reason Windows live messenger won't connect. It will if i have wifi enabled but it wont otherwise. Thanks!!
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
I forgot to mention that i have installed WM 6.1, i am not sure if this makes a difference or not.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Which data connection plan do you have provided from T-Mobile. Are you paying 19.99 or the 5.99 plan?
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I would recommend downloading palringo. This is a multiple IM messager client. Go HERE to get more information
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
I am using the 19.99 plan. I tried calling customer service but they had no idea what to do.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Ummm thats weird because mine works fine, ummm which Rom version are you using of the 6.1 are you using Rickys or Kavana.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
If not using Palringo as your instant messanger client. Go to palringo.com and download it from there. Its amazing. It has AIM, YAHOO, MSN, and more. You will love it once you download it and test it out.
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
I am using Kavana.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh I am using Ricky's version 23.
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
i think i will try delete all the connections and reset them up and see if that gets me anywhere. Thanks for the help, i will post in a few and let ya know if it gets me anywhere.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
ok try that and use the link below for the t-mobile mms fix... it should have a fix for the internet connections...
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
jdogg, if I'm not mistaken Palringo works using data, so it doesn't affect one's text msg plan, right? Also, has anyone compared Palringo to IM+? I'm not sure which interface is better, easier to use, etc. All I really need is AIM, MSN Mess., and GoogleTalk.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
The internet settings should be on that website I have below try to follow those and see if you get any results from that.. It should work...
[HTC Excalibur] neoseal:
Sweet got it working...not exactly sure why it wasnt working i typed in all the same info..oh well guess thats how it goes sometimes. Thanks again jdoggraz
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
No problem, I am always willing to help man. But give palringo a shot its awesome man you will love it. ;)
[HTC Excalibur] Nano3:
Favorite Instant messaging program

Beejive IM is my fave, I can use all my accounts with only one program... What is yours?
[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
i really lik beejive im i jus cnt make it go to vibrate
[HTC Excalibur] Nano3:
I don't think you can make it vibrate ha... It's still cool
[HTC Excalibur] drifterrolly:
parlingo will count as text too right? (or do all IM's count as text)
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
No it uses your wifi or data connection. All of these use your data unless it states it.
[HTC Excalibur] drifterrolly:
so what im programs count your text?
[HTC Excalibur] enemy1one:
OZ instant Messanger

[HTC Excalibur] swaney:
Try uninstalling and reinstalling it
[HTC Excalibur] chaznet:
Great... enjoy it while you can ;)
[HTC Excalibur] dckiwi:

wmAim - AIM Client for Excalibur

I have written an AIM-compatible chat client for the Excalibur (all landscape Windows Mobile Standard devices). I'd like to do some testing and get some feedback.

I have attached the release CAB which can be installed directly on the phone. I've designed the interface to be as easy to use on the Excalibur as possible. To switch between the accounts page, the buddy list, and the chats, hit the left and right keys.

Release notes:

1. Passwords are stored in plaintext.

2. Tested on Windows Mobile 6 Standard.

3. Requires the .Net Compact Framework (standard on WM6 devices).

Update 1 (0.1.412):

1. Fixed problem with log files appearing in the root of the device's flash.

2. Fixed Sign On button to prevent multiple sign ons.

Update 2 (0.2.2111):

1. Fixed envelope icons not accurately reporting whether or not you had a conversation.

2. Fixed bugs in starting conversations due to large buddy lists.

3. Enabled Show Offline Buddies.

Update 3 (0.3.52)

1. Fixed signon/logon issues.

2. Fixed issue in buddylist: now selecting a menu item will no longer start a chat with the selected buddy.

3. Changed chat close behavior so that the client returns to the previous chat rather than the accounts page.

4. Enabled custom away messages.

5. Enabled user info for buddies (unconfirmed).

6. Added an icon for buddies using mobile phones (it no longer appears as blue text; now there's a little phone on the side).

(0.3.52) 7. Fixed networking issues.

Update 4 (0.4.1558)

1. Fixed sign-in issues: if there are network problems, you will now.

2. Fixed buddy info. Logged-in-since times may be reported incorrectly.

3. Fixed various, unlikely crashes.

(0.4.1558) 4. Fixed phantom message behavior.

(0.4.1558) 5. Fixed issue with message reception.

Thanks for trying out the program.
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
i will start testing later this afternoon and post feedback tonight...thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] uwashock:
will this do ICQ?
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
ICQ and Screenshots

No, ICQ will not work. But it will be trivial to add it once I have finalized the rest of the interface design (I'm changing focus).

I have attached shots in action. You have to run it to really get a feel for changing between windows (much faster than OctroTalk and IM+).
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Are you able to set custom away messages, i'm going to try it but i just figured i'd ask first....
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
is it possible to only show online contacts? i see there is an option for that, but it is grayed out.

i would also like to see a custom graphic, logo, etc... as the icon for the program rather than just the white window box...
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Yes the option is greyed out. I also got an error after trying to open a new conversation. How come i have the envelopes showing up next to contacts after i opened a conversation then closed it, I wasn't able to get rid of those... Seems ok, and yes i know it's still in the early stages.
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Errors

I'll fix those errors within the hour. I will implement the online/offline buddies feature right now. I will fix the envelopes too (it disappears in the emulator properly but not on the Excalibur, hm..).

Thanks for downloading and testing
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Fixes made, see first post for new version.
[HTC Excalibur] McHale:
does this log in to the AIM servers directly or does it use some proxy server of some kind? That's how all the multi-IM's work.

Also, any plan to include Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, GTalk? I'd imagine some of the Miranda or GAIM information may be helpful but what do I know...

Thanks!

-Mc
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
i have installed version 0.2.2111 and i keep receiving the following error when attempting to login: "an unexpected error has occurred in wmAIM.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program...

...Error wAim.exe

ArgumentExceptoin

An error message cannot be displayed because an optinal resource assembly containg it cannot be found at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentException() at System.CollectionsGeneric.Dictionary'2..."

is this an error on my end or in the app? the error contains a lot verb. if you are intrested...
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Any plans to include custome messages and buddy info, like the status and perhaps if they are mobile or not.
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Wait i get it, the blue is the mobile....
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
No, it does not use a proxy server. It connects to the AIM servers directly. It defaults to port 25 because the $3, $5, $6, and $10 unlimited t-zones plans for T-Mobile do not block port 25 traffic. Thus, you get unlimited instant messaging; it's way faster and cheaper than using text message-based clients like the one that ships with T-Mobile phones or using superclients.

Also, I will add custom away messages. Most of the features are trivial to add; they will be available in the coming days. I just want to get the kinks sorted out on different networks.

If you have trouble connecting (logon errors, such as a "Cannot resolve host" or "Cannot find host" error), that's when you should start playing around with the ports to investigate how restricted your data plan is. This program, unlike Agile Messenger, allows port changing so that it's easier to get around port blocking and network firewalls.

Thanks again for the testing
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
It's an error in the program. That's all I need to know, thanks
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
would it be possible to add a homescreen plugin that shows online status, number of online buddies, etc...
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
first off, i would really like to thank you for making this program I think its a great idea... ive been waiting for an aim client on the dash forever... ive tried them all trust me... haha

well for yours i think a homescreen plugin would be great for new messages, maybe u cud incorporate the buddy lists, and the ability to see away messages, as well as make ur own is always perfect.

in addition sound notifications, etc. but for the most part, if u have these basics here I think ur aim app can be one of the best.

I too am getting that error wen installin ur updated version.
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Update + homescreen plugin

I have posted update 3. I will be writing the homescreen plugin shortly.

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
im still getting the error when logging in.... =/ the only one i didnt get an error on was the first one u posted...
[HTC Excalibur] Clymmer:
Same exception error here

I get this error in each version except the first one as well. I'm running wm6, connecting on port 20 via wifi.

C.
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Hey it's looking alot better right now. Haven't gotten the error yet, but it appears that others have. Any plan to have an option for how the message notification works, vibrate or sound or something along those lines. I'd like to thank you for this. But so far it's a real nice app.
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Wait, I got an error when trying to view the status of a mobile buddy. The status window comes up and there is nothing on it, i click close then I get an unexpected error in wmaim.exe

Wmaim.exe nullreferenceException at wmaim.buddylistform.session_userinforeceived()

....
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Could you post the text of the error and when the error occurs (i.e., what button you hit)?
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
I have to get the screenshot utility, but i just hit the left soft key to close and i get it.
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
New Version

Update 4 posted, the Buddy User Info stuff has been fixed. It reports the wrong logged-in-since times in the emulator but the right times in my phone.

Also, those ArgumentException errors may be network issues. I have added some more error messages that should verify that.

Thanks again
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
i really wanna try this out but i keep gettin that error right when signing on still even with the newest update...
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
it says logging on then the error occurs
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
I took screenshots, saw the updated version, is there a way for me to post them here from the dash if they are still needed.
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
by the way im running WM6 on the dash... is there any other programs that u might have that help it out? my dash is unlocked with surreal networks unlock app...
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
hey i think i know what the error is from... my sn is very old so i have a lotta buddies so i thought the app might have been unable to process so many friends in the list.. so i made a new sn with no added buddies yet and POOF the ERROR is gone.. hope this helps
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
I'll try comparing the newer updates with update 1 to see what has changed.
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
thanks i been dying to try this app out hahaha THANKS! keep up the good work!
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Your bug has been solved. Try Update 4 (0.4.1558). When you receive messages from persons not on your buddy list, an envelope will not be shown.
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
One other thing that I was wondering was if you had plans to be able to save your away messages, because right now you have to keep adding them every time.
[HTC Excalibur] galleon1388:
Saving will be enabled next update

I really appreciate all the help and I'd like to implement as many simple features as possible. Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
dude the errors still there...
[HTC Excalibur] apples:
i think somethings just wrong with my SN... cuz it works wen my friends login...
[HTC Excalibur] DotStig:
Yeah, still getting errors... I don't know if it's just me, but i can't scroll up to see what was said earlier in the conversations.
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
has anyone tried Update 4 (0.4.1558)? how does it run?
[HTC Excalibur] Clymmer:
Errors still there for me

I'm still getting the same error. Update one is the only one that has worked for me for some reason.

I'm sure G will figure it out.

C.
[HTC Excalibur] paypalbid:
it works

just create a screen name and then restart the device

or create a second screen name then the error will go away

restart device

should work
