does anyone know if there is a cab version and not a destop install only for this program , great program , but i need it to be a cab install for me here

For any interested in getting the latest version, 2.0 is available here: http://info.aol.co.uk/aim/wince/index.html

I am guessing by the name of the original file in the OP's post that his/hers is a older version. I have downloaded and installed the 2.0 version on my 700WX so I can guarantee it works on that, from there you guys are on your own, I am still pretty new to having a decent WM phone. Meaning my last one was a SDA phone, wasn't all that happy.

it is the same exact version as the one i posted.

many appologies then Jack, I simply assumed by the name of the file that it was an older version.

no biggie, i got all happy thinking this solved everyones problems, so i downloaded it, and both are version 2.0 thanks for contributing though.

I got this to work without any problems on my XV6700. I'm using that WM6 ROM, though.

One question, am I a total idiot or is there no way to turn off the annoying door/ringing noises for IMs and buddy list sign-ons/departures? I can't seem to find any option for turning those sounds off, and I don't want to actually turn the phone on silent because I prefer to hear my phone ring. I didn't see any option in the AIM program and there were no options in the WM sound settings for any of the AIM noises. I also checked the registry but there was no specific entry for sounds that was user-friendly -- just a couple of different generic named flag fields and whatnot that I didn't want to screw around with.

Am I missing something or is there some way we can mess with the preferences?

I don't know about the sounds. it is the uk version. works like a charm too.

i don't have this installed yet but are the noises sound files somewhere in the install directory? can you try to rename them and see what happens?

blah doesn't recognize as a PPC app :( help

Works for my 6800
 

If you have active sync installed, just open the file and run the exe. It will install the cab file through Active sync and install it on your PPC6800.

Anyone else know if there is a mod so you can hit the enter button to send the IM rather than having to hit the send button on the screen? I tried to find the setting, but couldn't find any.

this might just be me, but i have a HTC Mogul 6800. everytime i open up the phone to reveal the keyboard with the AIM 2.0 app open, the top right becomes all distorted and useless. does anyone else have this little problem?

installed well on my PPC 6700 but took me a bit to figure out how to get connected to the internet for signing on without it disconnecting after page loads.
Thanks Jack!

thanks for this

This works great just need some options to mess with sounds and sign on any body have another version? or updated version.

By the way this website has helped me plenty in understanding my phone and what to do keep up the good work Guys!! =D>

ok,.. it works fine,... but is there a way to use the app with out WiFi,..? seems like i could only be connected to AIM by WiFI... im using the MOGUL... any idea on how to use it with sprint pcs phone line..???
thanks...

open aim, go to news or stock qoutes and u should find a login screen where u can add ur sn

when I dowload the zip file and try to open it I get a error message saying this file is not compatible with my OS. I downloaded it twice and both times recived the same message. I am on a sprint mogul.. wtf... help..

you guys have to have an active data connection your PPC through wifi or evdo or whatever service you use in order for this application to connect. it wont automatically dial your connection like internet explorer or other applications will. you have to connect. i explained how it works on the SECOND page.

You have to make sure you're connected first. so open IE or Opera browser
