Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

Palringo is pissing me off. I don't know why but I constantly get random IM's from people even though I have IM's blocked from people I don't know on all of my services. Also, Palringo never remembers my login info.

Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

nimbuzz seems like it could be awesome, but for me it is very buggy. Skype wont call out and if I shift to landscape and back or just randomly like popping up the soft keyboard then nimbuzz messes up the display and basically forces a soft reset, which is terribly unacceptable. I'm running alltel stock ROM on tough pro. Anyone else seeing the same thing or not?

Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

Does anyone know of any clients that use SMS? Seeing as I have unlimited SMS on my plan, and data-only clients kill my battery in a few hours, it seems like SMS would be a better bet.

Oz messenger. Uses sms.

I wish the data only clients had a quick "forward to mobile option" Rather then leaving it on all the time.

I always wondered why sidekick users get a different icon in Pidgin.

Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

I currently use slick and beejive myself.

Beejive = Uses too much memory.
Slick = Uses too much battery.

I'm looking for another alternative. Even the Messaging through SMS would work perfectly with me. Is anyone else using Oz Messenger?

I pop it on every now and then. Best method I've used so far is mobile forwarding and turn on Palringo or beejive for sending. At least with aim this works.

Does Oz Messenger work with any provider? From what I been reading it seems like it only works on T-Mobile. Can anyone confirm this?
