Well I guess the OCD in me want my phone to be as "clean" as possible. I hate for apps I don't use to be running in the background and I hate running multiple apps that do the same thing (like "Social Networking" vs Tweetdeck"). Anyway, I appreciate your input. Thanks.

Lol im the same way but I don't mind it in this case..

Uh freeze the apps with titanium backup, esp sys apps, then you don't have to worry about trying to reinstall them if they cause malfunctions...

Nevermind about Astro. I paid for "Root Explorer" last night and I'm pretty darn sure it's superior to any other file manager that I've seen. Also, I renamed the stock File Manager app to ".bak" by using Root Explorer, so now I don't have to worry about reinstalling it if I wanna use it again. I wish I'd done that with all the apps I've uninstalled in the past.... :-(
[Droid X General] schneid:
+1 for Root Explorer.
[Droid X General] pandalcc:
Root Explorer is by far the best with functionality. You can also get Explorer, which is the free version of it.

Root explorer is MILES ahead of all others hands down.

Hi everyone!

I haven't seen anyone talking about "windows live messenger", nor videos and just screens about a "future messenger".

Well, there is or there is not an oficial Windows Live Messenger?

Thanks!

search messenger by miyowa, it seems like a joke, but its the official client :(:mad:
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cruzer1:
Bwahaha so true. Mind you, it's alot better after the updates. Notifications seem to work fine.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redman99:
I still cant get it to run at all, so also looking for an integrated "official" version.

i.e. at a minimum it should have the same integration Facebook does. I dont get how they can be missing that considering how "social" messenger is now.

Anyway. Fingers crossed we get something soonish.

(How can i skive of work if i cant pretend i am working from my phone?)

The lack of a first party Wlm client was one of the reasons i didn't get a wp7 device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peew971:
This is not the Official Messenger app, it's just the only one at the moment. I know what miyowa said but they didn't say they were in charge of the official WLM but that Microsoft asked them to create a WLM app (certainly as an alternative until the official one is ready).

Trust me it wouldn't be called "messenger by miyowa", it would be published by Microsoft and it wouldn't be that ****. Also there would be a mention of it and a download link for WP7 on their official WL for Mobile page (you can select a device at the top): http://www.windowsliveformobile.com/en-us/windowsphone/default.aspx

The Zune HD version is functional but ugly so my guess is they went from porting it to working on a Live Messenger for WP7 similar to the iPhone one with social networks integrated.

As awesome as the Metro UI is, what's offered now just doesn't work with WLM (seriously check that Zune HD app, it's very ugly), they need to keep it close to the desktop version as people are used to it. I'm sure the official app will be there before the Mango update.

Bull. Even the high ranking MS execs I've spoken to refer me to the Miyowa client as official. I have no doubt there will be an actual usable client in the future, but for now it is the official one.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeeam:
Microsoft would be stupid enough to let them use "Messenger by Miyowa"?

Wouldn't that be just "Windows Live Messenger"?

Even iOS has an official client. And it's not "by miyowa".
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fathamburger:
Yeah we need a proper one that can at least run backgrounded. I dont find it to be that bad since I usually leave my on at home and rarely need to log into it remotely
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makoute:
I was shocked that there wasn't a windows live messanger app for WP7 when I tried the HD7, I thought that was ridiculous. It's even more ridiculous that they still don't have one out.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
it does push notifications so you will know when you have a message. Never have been an IM kinda user so it doesn't bother me, but the one that's there does the basic features.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
Microsoft teams have more faith in ios than wp7 it seems. Now there is even denote for ios. The reasons to get wp7 over an ios device if on att or Verizon... Well there hardly are any...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peew971:
There's a new WLM app called Li'Messenger. It doesn't have notifications but maybe worth a try since the miyowa one is a bit rubbish.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slighmd:
I think its getting pulled out of the marketplace. So i suggest to go get it now before it's gone.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revrak:
i read its going to be removed... i just installed it, works and looks a lot better than miyowa's version.

now it just needs multitasking to run in the background :D
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
why would it be pulled? given the amount of twitter clients about... i don't see what reason MS would have to remove it...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeeam:
I'm with you!

Why would they remove it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captobie:
Maybe the developer started the rumor to get people to rush out and download it? :D
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
That was my initial reaction to the rumor also - but seeing as the app is free, what would he gain from this? Checking the app it also seems to be as well behaved as the developers claims it is, i.e. it sends data directly to Live. No intermediary servers involved so it's not like he's stealing account data either.

My guess is that MS doesn't like the fact it's using certain logos and/or Live API's, but rather than removing it they should in that case take it over as their official client as it's already much better than the other one.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkRyoushii:
Li'Messenger seems to be removed. wish I coulda tried this. looks really good. I hope for a better one than the current selection very soon.

To anyone who still thinks the Miyoma Messenger is official, it's addressed in that interview (can't embed):

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
Yeah, I know kind of an old thread, but I don't suppose anyone has the .XAP for Li'Messenger? Or someone who still has it installed can maybe extract the .XAP (if even possible)? There has been no news on it at all, and doesn't seem to be coming back, so it'd be nice to get a functional messaging client on our phones.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revrak:
if you find instructions to get the xap from the phone I'll try.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
I have no idea if this method works, but I suppose its worth a try, although it sounds like it'd be a hassle:

Use Advanced Explorer. Go into "My Device/Applications/Install/" and open every folder and take a look at the " backround.jpg" until you find the icon of your app. Then send every file in the folder to your pc.

Then pack it as a .zip and rename it as a .xap

Found it another thread, so if you'd like to try, that'd be awesome.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijahg34:
That would be great. I miss Li messenger hands down best performing app yet. Had to hard rest my phone have been pissed it was pulled

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revrak:
link to the topic please, i have no idea what this advanced explorer is :(

btw i have a samsung focus, just in case that method is device specific
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
The post literally says the same exact thing aside from quoting the post before it.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11005992&postcount=6

That being said, I believe by Advanced Explorer, he means TouchXplorer, which is unfortunately, an HTC-only application, but feel free to try it. I don't know if Samsung phones have their own file explorer application.

Also, this method assumes you have either Chevron unlocked or have a developer unlocked device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
I happen to have a copy of the original XAP on my HD. Question is; was this app released as a free or paid application when it was actually available for download? I can't remember, and won't attach the .xap if it was a paid for app (for obvious reasons).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revrak:
free

......
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
Okay, I'll take your word for it and let the mods sort me out should it be in breach :)

Original .xap as available on the marketplace on Jan 26th. Haven't checked if it's patched or not, but that's easy enough to sort out should it be needed.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeeam:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rilazi:

You sir, are awesome. This thing works flawlessly and its just a beautifully solid piece of software. More people need to code like this. I can't imagine why such a great app was taken down.

Installed on my HD7 and it works just fine.

Just so you have piece of mind, yes the app was released as free when it was on the Marketplace. XD
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijahg34:
sound like you have to do a factory restore, ever and anytime an app doesn't work for me I had to do a restore. Using a HD7 tmobile on my 5th factory reset.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijahg34:
when you first sign in it says Windows Live Messenger, guessing it is a trademark issue
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
If it was only a trademark issue it would have been very easy to fix for the developers. I'm more inclined to think it's because it is talking directly to the Live server using internal, non-documented APIs, something which is a clear breach of T&Cs.

Although I'm not entirely sure as various MS employees have previously told me to go ahead and integrate SkyDrive any way I like (screen scraping, internal APIs etc) in my apps - something that is also in direct breach.

But yeah, definitely a great app. Not only does it work, which the official client doesn't half the time but also integrates FB chat and supports multiple-location sign-in.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkp1977:
I can't believe there's no thread about Li'Messenger. I just stumbled across this app right here, sideloaded it and have to say it's awesome. Finally a working WLM that even integrates Facebook chat.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peew971:
There's a video comparison of WLM on 6 platforms by Pocketnow (no Android).

What's disgusting about it is that the 2 worst versions in aesthetics and functionality are the ones on Zune HD and WP7. These are (were?) supposed to be Microsoft's flagship devices! That's just ridiculous.

I like them and wish I could get any if them to install but I just have no luck. I've tried multiple times and get as far as the progress screen and then it just sits and sits then gives me an error message and the recovery steps.

Any ideas?

Do you have HSPL 2.08 installed? If not, then just like with custom roms, you won't be able to install...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] truckerdewd:
Yep, I have it installed. I'm running the Blue Topia HD(2) nand build so I have everything installed that I'm supposed to have installed but I still can't change that damned boot screen from the pink stick together. I've tried a couple of yours and a few others from other people but still no luck. :mad:

I've even tried that version where you flash it from your sd card by putting the .nbh on the sd card and booting into bootloader with the sim out and the sd card in and that didn't even work. It's gotten very frustrating.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] ajape:
Then I'm out of ideas... everytime I've installed them I've been running WM6.5, NRG ROM to be specific. It doesn't change after that, so I haven't tried afterwards... other than maybe try to install after flashing an energy Rom, then once it's installed go back to MAGLDR and Android, I really don't know what to tell you, never encountered anyone having difficulties with this before...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] truckerdewd:

Thanks for your splash screens. Just wondering: would you (or anyone else gifted enough) be able to create the splash screen above with an Android home screen? I tried it myself but I can't reproduce the glossy shine over the surface. Would be greatly appreciated if anyone could it do it for me. I don't care whether it's a stock Froyo or Froyo Sense home screen, I'd just prefer this over the WinMo home screen.

Thanks in advance.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] ajape:
Actually, I had to purposely downgrade the quality so that it looks good on your phone when it boots. The phone's rom cannot display either 16 or 32-bit images on the splash boot screen, pretty much like old motherboards couldn't either while booting up. So, if you create a Splash screen from a 32-bit color image, the resulting final screen will look all wrong and with noticeable gradient change bands all over the image. So, while it looks kinda distorted and wrong while magnified on your pc monitor display, it actually looks perfect on your phone's screen, and vice-versa. ;) Try it, you'll see ;0
