aim idea
 

alright i hate agilemessenger alot and i dont no if i want to speand the money on verichat. on the MDA it came loaded with aim.msn and icq in a app. i have the files for it but i heard it wont work for ppc. i will post them on monday i was seeing if anyone on here could look into makeing it for ppc.

I will look into it.....but remember Im learning. ;)

there is a thread about it on pdaphonehome.com in the 6700 section. some guy is trying to rip it off his buddy's MDA, i dont know if he was successfull yet or not but deff worth a look.

there is the link, doesnt seem to be working yet

It can be done if its on the mda more than likey.....just need that rom, and this I do believe is a rom I can get my hands on. :D

they got the rom, they got it onto th 6700 and up and running, just couldnt get it to connect

yeah after looking into, Im not so sure there is away to get this to work on the 6700. Others maybe but not the 6700. Plus after researching this IM uses text based, which could get expensive. U just looking for an AIM messenger?

o i didnt no it was text base. forget that i will stick with agile for now.

well i have unlimited text messaging as part of my plan so it being text based wouldnt effect me one bit if it really worked!!! i know i have tried several times to get it to connect but no go

yeah I searched the source code and the net up and down with no luck of finding anything. It works on sprint devices so I have read. Just not the 6700. :( but I did download the aim sdk (software developer kit) to play with and maybe make an aim messenger.

yah I would say let us know what you come up with ... cuz as of right now it looks like im gonna be purchasing verichat as it is the only AIM program so far that hasn't destroyed my battery in about 2 hours

We could setup a Jabber server and use Imov messenger, im trying to get one setup and working. If i do I could let ppcgeeks users use it to get ims from y!, AIM/ICQ, and msn as long as you guys promise not to push big files across since it would be a low bandwidth server.

i use octro its the best and i will definitely be buying it when its final. and i never pay for apps but it works well for what i want so ill support them.

What would you gain by using your own Jabber server vs. the default one it selects when Imov is installed?

If I install my own personal Jabber server, can I get functionality like Verichat?

I know nothing of I'M technology but if it can be done I'm sure we have enough bw to handle it here at ppcgeeks. Ideas? thoughts?

When i installed imov and used their server I couldnt access aim or any of the public im systems. Has that changes recently?


Jabber allows you to have a client connect to the server then they can use the jabber server as a gateway to other im clients. Im building a server this sunday and see if i can get ejjabard installed on it. We will see if this works ok. :D

If you want to run it with ppcgeeks you need a linux machine running ejabberd server http://www.process-one.net/en/ejabberd/

i have the 6800 and i use aim 2.0, so i wanted to know is there a way i can make my phone vibrate when i get a new instant message? ive been trying to find out a way for days now

Just spend the cash on IM+, it's a pretty good app, kind of pricey, but worth it if you're looking for a good IM client that does more than just MSN!
